Wedle historii polemiki Sobieski przybywając na pola bitwy przed Wiedniem nie dość że złamał ducha walki Imperium. Ponieważ polska armia budziła strach wśród arabów a liczyli oni że król polski nie pójdzie z pomocą swoim wrogom To Jeszcze sam poprowadził natarcie na tyle sprytnie że pozbawił wroga straży tylnej oraz armat które niszczyły mury Wiednia Jednym zdaniem złamał oblężenie i zmusił Turków do odwrotu i poddania

We, Poles, are so strange that: 1. We apply the maxim: "a guest in the house, God in the house!" and "have a heart and look into the heart!" 2. Unlike the Russians and Germans, we "don't like" building camps (for refugees, concentration and... death). The elite who built the State of Israel (after World War II) were almost entirely Polish Jews (citizens of the Second Polish Republic), saved by Poles. For Poles, every person has the right to freedom. Poles have always abhorred imperialism! Poles know perfectly well that freedom is not given once and for all, that it has to be fought for. Regards

By the way, the beginning of the whole Zionistic movement is connected with the Katowice Conference in 1884 (Katowice is a city in Upper Silesia, after the WW I, regaining of Polish independence and the three Silesian Uprisings in the years 1919-1921, being a city of Poland). In Tel Aviv there's even a Katowice Street.

More than 8 million passed through Poland, receiving food, medical care and accommodation. About 800,000 + about 1 million from before the war are left in Poland from the refugees. The remaining refugees went to the west, to the USA or returned to Ukraine. About 700 000 were taken into flats, houses, guest houses and hotels in the first days of the war. No one slept on the street, no one died of hunger or cold. Of course, there were and are Poles who do not want to help, but they are a minority. Bad people are everywhere, the important thing is that there are more of the good ones. 1939-45 To understand the price the Poles who helped the Jewish people had to pay. - Protecting a Jew for 4-5 years, you had to feed him, give him shelter, clothe him, wash him, keep him warm. - Food was only on ration cards for people who worked. Nazi rule - You don't work, you don't eat. So you had to share your own supplies or buy at several times higher prices on the black market. - There was no way to evacuate, Poland was surrounded by enemies on all sides. You would have to have a forged passport a lot of money and some forged documents, allowing you to cross several borders and travel on trains. Everything was controlled the whole of Europe and especially Poland was one huge labour camp. - If a Pole was caught helping Jews, all property, a flat, a house was taken, and the whole family was taken to Auschwitz or hanged or shot, along with any Jews found. - Countries like France or the Netherlands, the penalty for hiding a Jew was a fine, or imprisonment, not killing. Polish general Tadeusz Kościuszko, the liberator. His will was beyond his friends' minds. Thomas Jefferson He did everything to prevent Poland from being enslaved, but he also strived hard for freedom for Americans. In terms of his attitude towards slaves and Indians, he was far ahead of his time, supporting his beliefs with very specific actions. Tadeusz Kościuszko was born 275 years ago. When Black Lives Matter protesters began destroying the Tadeusz Kościuszko monument in Washington in 2020, it was hard to find a worse target. The statue of a white soldier in a strange outfit probably reminded them of some "white supremacist", but in fact Kościuszko was - for those times - an incredible liberal who wanted complete freedom not only for black slaves and Indians, but also for Polish serfs chained to the land, and also for the Jews (it was Kościuszko who gave consent during the 1794 uprising to form Berek Joselewicz's unit). For his services to the independence of the USA, Kościuszko was generously rewarded by Congress with a grant of land (250 hectares) and a high salary (in 1783, he was promoted to the rank of brigadier general of the American army). Kościuszko wrote in his will that part of his estate would be used to buy out slaves belonging to several of his American friends, including, among others, to Thomas Jefferson, one of the founding fathers of the USA. Kościuszko also clearly noted that this money should be spent on educating the freed people. “In his contacts with Thomas Jefferson, he insisted on the redemption and emancipation of slaves. Jefferson owned slaves and lived off their labor. Unlike him, Kościuszko was a man who took the well-known American proverb "put your money where your mouth is", which means "It's not enough to talk, you have to put money down". The Polish commander could have lived freely on his property in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth (now in Belarus), but he decided to liberate the peasants who worked on his land, regardless of the costs incurred. Thomas Jefferson, who called Kościuszko "the purest son of freedom", did not fulfill the will of his Polish friend, thus breaking his own promise.

Yeah. These battles belong to the most important in battles in the history of Europe, not only Poland.

The British initially invited Poles to participate in the celebrations, but sent an official notification to the communist authorities, who took over the rule in post-war Poland with the anointing of Moscow. No letter was sent to the representatives of the Polish Government in Exile, which until recently was the only partner of the Allies and a representative of the Polish Armed Forces fighting under British orders on the fronts of World War II. Despite protests from some British politicians and an attempt to invite representatives of the Polish Air Force, which fought so heroically during the Battle of Britain, the Polish Armed Forces had no official representation during the loudly celebrated London Victory Parade. Shortly before the parade, the British decided to send an invitation to the pilots of the 303rd Fighter Squadron, which was part of the Polish Air Force in Great Britain. It was planned to place them in RAF units, alongside other foreign pilots. However, as a gesture of solidarity, the "Kościuszko members" decided to unite with other representatives of the Polish Armed Forces in the West and refused to participate in the celebrations. - I deeply regret that none of the Polish troops who fought alongside us in so many battles and who shed their blood for a common cause were allowed to take part in the Victory Parade - said Winston Churchill, former prime minister and opposition leader, in 1946. He added that Britain will never forget their bravery and combat exploits at Tobruk, Narwik, Cassino and Arnhem. It was only in 2003 that British Prime Minister Tony Blair apologized to Polish veterans for the attitude of his predecessors and the lack of invitation to the victory parade.

Żeby ktoś dalej kontynuował ich prace i mógł walczyć z Niemcami. Przykre jest to, że Anglicy dopiero w 1999 przyznali, że Polacy mieli udział w odszyfrowaniu Enigmy.

Are there statues of Polish mathematics in Bletchley Park or just one for A. Turing? There is a plaque for Poles unveiled in 2002. Were Poles honoured in any of those movies about enigma? I remember it was a great news, when British government officially admitted the input of Polish mathematics into breaking the Enigma code and I think it was about year 2000, or during 90s the earliest, cause before we were behind an iron curtain ("thank you", Mr. Churchill), so they didn't have to bother.

Ulmowie - a blessed family - died because they tried to save Jewish children. And I really advise - watch our history before Poland was gone. You will understand us a bit more. U advise start from "potop" or "ogniem i mieczem" :)

And probably we will stick together beside the beliefs. We are fellow slavic people. I myself took 2 times a refugee family into my house. One woman with small baby - daddy stayed in the front. They moved in a week to family in Warsaw. Second time, a woman with her mother. She was about 70y old. And we could somewhat communicate, despite languge differences. They even cooked for us in thanking gesture. And refused to even, help them in some other way. In couple of days they moved to fellow Ukrainians in Wroclaw. We have fb/phone contact to this day.

7 million Ukrainians came to Poland! not thousands, it would be as if Poland accepted the entire population of Lithuania, Estonia and Latvia. . Of course, as the war dragged on, most of them spread across Europe to the USA and Canada. Of these 7 million, approximately 1.5 million remained in Poland. It is true that no camps were established, ordinary people welcomed them into their homes if they had a place to host them, local government institutions took them in, paid for the hotel rental, hoteliers took them in at their own expense, in sports halls, etc., orphanages took in children from Ukrainian orphanages along with caregivers - we managed, as there is empathy in the nation. I have friends who took two families to their homes, furnished their rooms and ate meals together, and went with humanitarian aid to Ukraine at their own expense.

About the Ukraine, when the war started, in February 2022, almost all Polish were trying to help Ukrainians, not only the state, the government, but plenty of people with their own private resources as well. Plenty of people took the refugees, for more weeks, directly to their homes. Plenty of people were collecting money or making packages with necessary goods, like food, cosmetics and other products, to send them to Ukraine for those who stayed there. We were doing this, so collecting our private money or making packages, in our families, at work, at churches. The refugees received also a lot of help from the Polish state, like many social benefits. Children could freely attend Polish schools, refugees can use Polish healthcare system etc. Not mentioning about big military help.

Your post requires some correction: Poles had 1st version of Enigma broken even before the war. In the meantime, Germans had another, updated version, with additional rolls. This one wasn't initially broken by anyone, but after UK got the working version from an u-boat, polish mathematicians helped immensely with their expertise and were able to understand the way the updated enigma worked. However, actual breaking of the code was done by Alan Turing. But it needs to be said again - without Polish expertise and pre-war breaking of earlier enigma, I don't believe UK would be able to break it before 1945.

because we don't beg for freedom we fight for it

In fact, there were 16 Polish air squadrons in the UK - 10 fighter squadrons, 4 bomber squadrons and 2 others

W Bitwie pod Hodowem, która rozegrała się 11 czerwca 1694 roku, 400 Polskich wojowników pokonało 40000 Tatarów! Tak, na 1 Polaka przypadało 100 tatarów i Polacy wygrali! Osiągnęli sukces o wiele większy niż 300 legendarnych Spartan pod Termopilami. Spartanie choć walczyli dzielnie to przegrali, a Polacy zwyciężyli w bitwie pozornie nie do wygrania.

Dziękuję.

Well done 👏 God bless i visited like 27 countries already. Good luck 👍

There are many such interesting stories involving Poles. I will mention a few; General Kościuszko fought against Russia and later emigrated to the USA where he fought on the side of the USA against England when the USA was created. Personally, he was a friend of Jefferson. Kościuszko was the creator of the American Rangers and the founder of West Point. At that time, Puławski was the second Pole, the creator of the US cavalry. To this day, there is a Puławy parade in New York. From the period of Napoleon's fighting, there is his adjutant Sułkowski, a Pole, a very educated and talented officer of Napoleon, who was so jealous of his talent that he sent him to a suicide fight against the Mamluks with whom he had no chance of survival. There are many geographers and ethnographers. The highest honor in Australia discovered by a Pole and named it Kościuszko, but many Australians have no idea that the name of the mountain is a Pole's surname. Etc.

The USA did not support Poland in 1939. The British, along with others, defeated Napoleon. Why did the Polish support the dictator Napoleon ?

​@@michelleclarke8264"The enemy of my enemy is my friend" At that time Poland was under occupation of Russia, Prussia and Austria (partitioned and erased from the maps). Those three countries tried to erase Poland/Lithuania, our culture and people. Napoleon was fighting them and he recreated just small part of Polish state... There was a chance that if Napoleon wins, Poland will gain full independence... So Poles were supporting France - Napoleon and fighting Russia/Prussia and Austria to gain independence. As you can see in the video (Haiti example) when Poles saw that they are used by Napoleon to enslave other nations in other parts of the world. They switched sides there and we're fighting Napoleon alongside Haiti in order to help them gain their independence... hope that I answered your question 🙂

Because only Napoleon promised independence to the Poles. The enemy of my enemy is a friend. He gave the Poles the Duchy.@@michelleclarke8264

Ah yes. New vid. Looking forward to Wrocław vids.

Coming soon 👀👀👀❤️

Hey, thank you for your content and thank you for speaking so well about my country in which I was born and which I love with all my heart and for which I would give my life at any time. I appreciate it Miro!!!!!!!

Yes, Ukrainians live (lived) in polish people houses, eat our food, wear our clothes ect, on the border, we give them food, blankets, and even pads or medication. Politicians in Europe said after that poland collaborate with Russia.

😍Thank you but we were most of the times alone to fight with Germany or Russia

I answered the question. Poles opened houses for Ukrainian refugees. 🇵🇱 ❤️& 🇺🇦 ❤️. Godbless International Legion in Ukraine. Godbless lovely couple. All the best 👍 👌. Greetings 🇬🇧 🙏. Enjoy in lovely beautiful 🇵🇱 ❤️🇵🇱❤️🇵🇱❤️. Nice movie. Nice content. Powodzenia.

1920 - The Battle of Warsaw changed the fate of the world. Battle between the Red Army attacking Warsaw and northwest of it and the Polish Army grouped on the Vistula and Wieprz, the decisive battle of the Polish-Bolshevik war. One of the most important battles in the world. I'm surprised it's not in the top 5.

7:54 - Actually, Hungarians were insanely helpful to the Poles during WW2. For real, it is crazy. Even though Hungary and Poland were on the opposing teams (Poland was in the Allies, and Hungary was in the Axis), Hungary refused to allow German Armies to enter Poland through their borders, and then took in many refugees. There was even a Polish Culture Institute in Budapest (Idk if it still is there) that Germans wanted to be closes, but Hungary again refused. Hungarians also provided unparalleled help during the Polish-Soviet war, and fought alongside Poles and against Germans in the Warsaw Uprising (even though Hungary and Germany were still allies).

If a refugee wants to work, he will support himself. If not, it is just ballast for the country he came to.

Hundreds of thousands :) NO! in the first 3 months when starting war is about 4,000,000 people :) - Peoples in Poland maked special google maps with all possibilities accommodation on rooms or house for Ukrainian refugees.

Have You forgot about the battle of Vienna (Vienna relief). This battle changed the fate of all of Europe, maybe the world. The betrayal hurt even more in later centuries...

And we keep fighting for what's right. And western countries keep ignoring us. Life....

Sorry if I missed that in comment... Most of us-Polish people adding the Vienna fight... But I think as much as Ottomans' Empire to be stopped in Viena, " The Meracle at Vistula River" is same (or even more) important for todays' Europe. The Poles army stopped the komunizm- stopped RED army to stepped to Europe.

During the communist times, a lot of people were imprisoned, brutally tortured and murdered by the communists. Read for instance about Danuta "Inka" Siedzikówna (information accessible also in English), who was a 17 years old girl, imprisoned and murdered, shot by a firing squad, despite that she did never anything wrong (she was helping, as a nurse only, to members of underground anti-communist resistance, but she was helping even the wounded communists if they needed). Very famous are her last words in her letter from communist jail to her grandmother: "Tell my grandma, that I behaved like it should be" (she didn't betray anyone). And also later there were more events when the communists were sending the army to shoot to the civilians at the streets, like in 1956, in December 1970 or during martial law period since 1981. In December 1970 the communists introduced, just before Christmas, sudden increases of prices of basic food products. People started to protest. So they sent army to shoot to them, and to kill ordinary civil people. So it looked like that, in that times.

I'm more right wing type of guy. I know the history of XX very well. I was so happy that we took those poor people. I'm not a rich guy, rather the opposite, I'm sick, I can't work but I've sent so much money I could, I was even buying toys for kids. Thinking that some Ukrainian kid got a teddy bear from me warms my heart. Sadly there is a lot of people who are just stupid, are saying and spreading bad shit, but they are little, good people - we are many. We support and we pray for Ukraine. Greetings from Subcarpathia, Poland.

Also battle of Grunwald 1410 when Poland, Lithuania and Czechia beats Teutonic Order (currently Germany, Lichtenstein, Austria)

Ukrainians are just like us, thats why we love and hate each other to the border of endurence ;D But we will always host each other and help in the times of needs. I lived in Ukraine for some time, and as a Pole I can say one thing. We are the same. But we were shorter and less under the Soviet control. And that makes all the differences we can see now. Слава вам брати And all the best for all of you , viewers ;)

Poland has a 1,000-year tradition of freedom of speech. Poles are not afraid to say what they think. Sometimes they speak faster than they think. Polish words have less weight than in other languages. Poles who said they "hated" Ukrainians opened their homes to them. Poles who said they "hated" Jews saved them, risking the lives of their families. Poles who said they "hated" blacks died for their freedom. When judging Poles, you should not pay attention to their words, which can be emotional and exaggerated, but to their actions.

Bo to polska kraj bohaterow

Maybe our ancestors are?👀

There is a Polish saying: "If you have a soft heart, have a hard ass." Every time Poles helped other nations, they got nothing in return except a kick in the ass. You don't know it yet, but the situation with Ukraine is similar.

Wah gwaan !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love You !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! XDDDD !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Good Job Guys !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! x) One Love !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I appreciate that you like my country so much !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you for watching ❤️

1. I know that many will deny it, but I think it results from the fact that Poland is a deeply Catholic country and, as you can see, not only from the declaration 2. 6 million Poles! 3 million were ethnic Jews and 3 million were all others, Poles, Belarusians, Ukrainians and also etnic Germans (yes, these also died) and many other 4. Polish legionnaires brought their religious beliefs. Some of them bore the image of the patron saint of Poland - the Black Madonna of Częstochowa. It was quite a surprise for Haitians to see white people praying to a black saint. The image of the Polish Black Madonna was transformed into a synthetic image of Erzulie Dantor, the lion of Haiti. You can compare this two images. 5. Unfortunately, Wałęsa takes all the credit for it, but the truth is that it was the power of the people that changed the regime. His past also eventually came to light and it turned out that he had previously collaborated with the regime.

To nie jest tak że nie chowamy urazy .Zadra jest ciągle w sercu , ale pokazujemy mimo wszystko że mamy współczucie dla innych . Tak są Polacy którzy nie chcieli pomagać ,ale mimo sprzeciwu przyjeli tych ludzi życie ciężko doświadczyło Polskę i Polaków

Important to note, there was a death penalty for helping jews in Poland. There was no death penalty for that in western europe. Despite this there were more poles helping jerws than any other country. That says something about us...

We are too good.

Oops I forgot to say welcome in Europe guys. Very nice of you and that you are doing those things.

Oh my god - the girl is so beatifiull.

14:17 - Pay attention to this photo. It was taken in front of a cinema showing Francis Ford Coppola's film "Apocalypse Now", the day after martial law was declared.

1 million refugees arrived in Europe in 2015, and 2 million refugees arrived in Poland in one month of 2022. The refugees lived in hotels, boarding schools, in the apartments of Ukrainians living in Poland and in the apartments of Poles. Somehow they fit in.

5:10 lots of Polish people took Ukrainians to their own houses and let them stay for few months. My grandma at first let them live at her home, and then, when they got some money and stability, she let them rent the apartment, that she owned for a lower rent

I'm from Poland 😂wow 😂

Two more episodes when my homeland change the world is Miracle of Vistula and Defence of Vienna. God Bless Poland 🇵🇱

Well, this is only for the most recent years, because the Polish made so many more awesome things, like the winged Hussars of the XVII century, that saved Vienna from the Otoman Empire.
