[Mayhem]

Me too. Hopefully the country can transition to whoever-the-fuck-the-next-guy-is without too much hassle. I was a guest on a Polish container ship for 3 weeks, back in '90-91, heading for the Gulf. Really cool, solid people.

That's news to me. :dunno:
Do you have any evidence you can post to back this claim?

No, just some fool trying to start shit. Kaczynski was born in 1949, so he would have been a little late to the party anyway, but there is no mention anywhere in his biography about any Nazi leanings. In fact:

In the 1970s Lech Kaczyński was an activist in the pro-democratic anti-Communist movement in Poland, Workers' Defence Committee, as well as the Independent Trade Union movement. In August, 1980, he became an adviser to the Inter-Enterprise Strike Committee in the Gdańsk Shipyard and the Solidarity movement. During the martial law introduced by the communists in December, 1981, he was interned as an anti-socialist element. After his release from internment, he returned to trade union activities, becoming a member of the underground Solidarity.

When Solidarity was legalized again in the late 1980s, Lech Kaczyński was an active adviser of Lech Wałęsa and his Komitet Obywatelski Solidarność in 1988. From February to April, 1989, he participated in Polish Round Table talks.

Just ignore the little bastard and maybe he'll go away. :flame:

And reading further down....

On December 21, 2008, Lech Kaczyński became the first Polish head of state to visit a Polish synagogue for a religious service. His attendance coincided with the first night of Hanukkah.

I guess he was a "closet-Nazi".

He sounded like a good guy a shame.

 

[~~whimsy~~]

Nothing worse than to lose a country's President.

Though I believe the Russians put those trees there knowing full well what would happen. Crafty. They look at the bigger picture of things.

Yes, how dare those Poles agree to terms for an installation of a missile defense system against the wishes of the ussr ! :nono:

Obama has abandoned our allies and this is the result IMO.
Appeasement is provocative !! :thefinger

Why? he was a Nazi...

WOW. I'm from Poland, i know a lot about 9.11, JFK or Northwood Operation, but i didn't know that Kaczynski was a Nazi, you idiot. Maybe i didn't agreed on many issues but i give him respect.

As u know, he died in Smolensk, near to Katyn where 20,000 of ours officers were murdered by Soviets. They were going for the 70th anniversary of this horrible crime.
