"They Want To Occupy Poland Again" - Merkel, European Union Compared To Nazis In Latest Diplomatic Spat
Ever since the Polish Law and Justice party (PiS) party won elections in October on a Eurosceptic platform, relations between the formerly staunchly pro-Europe Poland, and the European Union have been on a sharp downhill slide, and earlier today they hit a rock bottom when Poland's justice minister dismissed an EU commissioner's criticism of new media regulations as "silly" in a confrontational letter which according to Reuters, "marked a low in the new government's relations with the bloc and the commissioner's home Germany."
It got so bad, Poland pulled out the Nazi card: minister Zbigniew Ziobro questioned Berlin's own record on media freedoms and alluded to Nazi Germany's occupation of Poland during World War Two in the message to EU commissioner Gunther Oettinger.
The reason for the spat is that Oettinger, responsible for the bloc's policy on society - which supposedly means Brussels' current propaganda director - said last week the EU's largest eastern member should be put under supervision over its plans to put Polish public TV and radio broadcasters under state control and to change the makeup of the constitutional court. The EU executive has written to Poland asking how the new media law, giving the treasury minister the right to appoint heads of state-run broadcasters, tallies with EU rules on media freedoms.
The response was scathing: "I am not in the habit of replying to silly comments on Poland made by foreign politicians," Ziobro wrote to Oettinger in a letter published by state news agency PAP on Saturday.
"Such words, said by a German politician, cause the worst of connotations among Poles. Also in me. I'm a grandson of a Polish officer, who during World War II fought in the underground National Army with 'German supervision'," he said.
The National Army was the main Polish resistance movement during World War Two, while "supervision" appeared to be a reference to the Nazi occupation of Poland.
The vocal defense promptly turned into an even sharper offense when Ziobro, whose party advocates higher state spending and conservative Catholic values, also accused German authorities of trying to cover up news of attacks on women in Cologne on New Year's Eve.
"I came to a sad conclusion that it is easier for you to talk about fictitious threats to media freedom in other countries than to condemn censorship in your homeland," Ziobro wrote.
There was no immediate reaction from Brussels or Berlin to the letter. Meanwhile, Poland's foreign minister summoned the German Ambassador for a meeting tomorrow in connection with anti-Polish remarks by German politicians as relations between the two formerly close nations disintegrate.
Finally, assuring that the diplomacy between the two nations is impaired for the foreseeable future, the front page of the Polish Wprost weekly, one of the more popular media outlets in the country, showed the following picture of Merkel, and the EU Commission cronies Juncker, Oettinger and Schultz, with the title "They want to supervise Poland again." Which, as Reuters explained above, means "occupy."
We find it ironic how, for a continent that has supposedly overcome the tensions of its turbulent past and which is pushing for even deeper economic, social, and cultural integration with every staged financial, social and political crisis passing day, its various nations are so willing to remind us that absolutely nothing is forgotten (or forgiven), and that a United State of Europe is about as grand a pipe dream as they come.

LOL.
Good one.
Prussians gonna be what Prussians gonna be.
Europe had better start confronting the Muslim invasion and stop bickering amongst themselves. They are on the verge of losing the continent to the mongrel dogs.
Then stop bombing, or being complicit in bombing , countries in the MENA.
The refugees are merely the symptom, not the cancer.
Getting sick and tired of the non thinking bigots on the board.
Try using that thing between your ears for critical thought.
Yeah, let's bomb Hungary and Poland. Those refugees are welcome in my own house.
Sorry but that did not work since 10,000 years - since Stone age.
They use that thing between their ears to cultivate/optimice greed (0.01%), ignorance (99.99%) and lies and how to steal from each other.
Getting sick and tired of the non thinking bigots - who still think these worse than animals are worth a thought or penny or comment or two.
Fuck the human race - as it is completely worthless, useless and just out of control parasites.
Proven since 10,000 years and possibly 10,000 wars.
And you wanna tell me they should use that thing between their ears?
That thing between their ears is directly connected to those things between their legs. :-)
The Westerner (who tacitly agree with his votes) bomb, destroy, regime change, bomb villagers and weeding parties, remove non-Islamist goverment, then worst fund and train drugged Islamist groups to overthrow local governments and then after they whine and bitch that 1 000 000 refugees come in Europe and do shit ? Karma is a bitch !
There was a reason why Saddam and Gaddafi ruled with an iron first. Now Bush, Barry and the West have released a swarm of infestation across the world that will be worse then the plague. These are extremely violent angry yutes, many who seek revenge.
Thanks for the down vote. You are right; it should be "whom" not "who."
For a minute there I thought it was Sunsteins internet team downvoting everyone.
Hey Winnie:
This isn't an either/or question. Yeah, let's stop bombing the entire Middle East and send them back "home". Regime change, my ass. Little boys with big toys.
Winnie
You might want to look up what your name sake felt about Islam.
I chose that avatar for a different reason.
My anglophile Swiss father named my late brother after Churchill.
The cancer has already killed the host Winston. Open those things called eyes and you'll see the permanent horror of cultural suicide. The cause is irrelevant.
(Ok, you erased the comment)
The ME has been getting bombed for decades.
But only in the last 18 months have the invaders got directions and passage to Europe?
Really, bro?
Rhetorical question.
The bombing has NOTHING to do with it.
Sorry Winnie old boy but the refugees are a weapon not a symptom.
Saint has a point - and WC is also right: stop of bombing is ONE necessary step out of several to be taken.
Much much worse - this whole planet is long lost to the bankers, mega corporations and Wall Street dogs.
Im comparison your mongrel dogs are just like sweet Pussycats, which at least have recognized who is the real evil on those planet. While the dumb western sheeple still fall for the trap of "muslim terrorists".
Hang those bankers and their puppets and media spreading war and lies across the planet - since Stone age btw - and there are no mentionworthy number of refugees anymore.
Stupid but it's the dumb and ignorant sheeple which let it happen.
"the dumb and ignorant sheeple which let it happen."
You mean the dumb and ignorant jobless Westerner whose livelihood was offshored to make the filthy rich, filthier.
When you are in debt up to your eyeballs, working a second part-time job to keep up with consumer inflation and the only "news" you get is controlled by the Propaganda department, maybe you too could become "dumb and ignorant".
Mulsims are not the issue - The Problem is Politicians who subvert representative democracy for their own objectives - The current Puppet as POTUS and the vassal states in the EU must be cleaned out and the Muslim issue will take care of itself
"The Problem is Politicians who subvert representative democracy for their own objectives "
True.
But you also might want to look up the number of Islamic democracies. You might find they all become theocracies of one sort or another. Dictatorship from the Koran. A backward religion wanting to go more backward faster.
Muslims can only be governed by a strong and ruthless leader- usually a dictator.
And while Merkel and her ilk think they are generously offering a helping hand to people in need, Muslims believe Allah is making Westerners weak and it is Allah that is feeding, clothing and providing shelter to his followers.
Oversimplified.
Yes, Frau Merkel has her lions share of the blame.
But....she wasn't the filthy fucking Moham finger fucking German women on the plaza on New Years.
Both the politicians and the rat fuck refugees must hang.
Merkel should be hung for her culpability in the murder of 130 white ethnic French in November. Her actions and policies led directly to that slaughter. She is a war criminal and I genuinely believe she will not die of natural causes due to her crimes against Europe. Everyone's actions catch up to them eventually.
As the economic crisis in the EU worsens and more refugees keep pouring in, there will be lot more tensions which will tear the EU apart. The Powers that be need a Gladio II to keep the EU tigether. So look for more false-flag ISIS attacks and more demonizing of Putin and Russia to create a common enemy.
Secret for over 40 years, Gladio is a NATO-backed network of armed soldiers inside the nations of Europe which bypasses the control of nation governments. Ostensibly intended for use only in case of a Soviet invasion, Gladio has in fact carried out a string of false flag terror attacks. In 1990, the European parliament called for national political investigations, but most national governments have chosen not to investigate it.

There's common enemies coming into focus, alright.
Both internal (politicians) and external (invaders).
Trying to channel that as a Putin inspired plot is going to be a really hard sell.
There is only one thing that might unify Europe and that is the realisation that the USA is perhaps its greatest enemy and the one that is really trying to occupy Europe.
US is just a slightly incalcitrant force projector for a small group of masters.
Trying ?
They have been since end off ww2.
The yankees never left.
The germans are still paying, and once in a while some free stuff like a submarine. Do all german laws still need to be approved by the us president ?
Are the french still paying for napoleon wars ?
There are like 50 US military bases in Germany alone. Incredible but true.
Yes, all german lawws need to be approved by a US president, thats how it is. Even if those laws are to the detriment of the German people
Pete
Read the Koran- Europe is to be occupied and Islamified. Once they were stopped at Vienna, now they are welcomed in- a very clever plan.
As has been stated here many times. There are plenty of Muslim countries that could but won't take them in.
The U.S. is just the most visible part of the global Jewish empire that controls all of the Anglo nations and E.U., among others.
It's like when my wife says shit like "why are we doing it your way?" What she really means is "we should be doing it my way." In Poland and the Ukraine, NATO says "we don't want these countries controlled by Russia." The translation is "we want to control these countries" but they will tell you they just want them to be free, just like all of the citizens of the EU and USSA get to be free.
So I have to ask my European Union cousins, is your leadership "exceptionally" inept, egomaniacal, incompetent, evil or just some combination of all?
No different than leadership everywhere methinks. These big central governments have outlived their usefulness.
Let people be, make their own decisions on a local level and allow people the opportunity to live elsewhere when a government becomes intolerable or give the people the option to legally kick a government out.
Beauroocrats love power over others and always talk about the 'rule' of law they often ignore themselves.
Oh I know, I'm just having some fun with their self-professed "exceptionalism"...lol.
..."give the people the option to legally kick a government out."
That's not gonna happen, Hans.
Allow me to tweak that for you.
..."give the people the necessary tools to physically kick a government out."
They won't leave just by asking nicely. I think we are all seeing that now.
It is. And even worse.
"exceptionally" inept, egomaniacal, incompetent, evil or just some combination of all...
Sounds like Obama!
It is ecologically unsound to transplant invasive species
the sooner we get rid of EU the better for all European nations.
Economic contraction will make sure it will all end totally fragmented.
Good Bless Poland.
Historically, the Poland identity has never been compromised even after centuries of being occupied by various European kingdoms or the Soviet Union.
It was Poland who started the process of Soviet Union destruction and who expelled Jews in early 1970s.
It was Polish General K. Rocosovski who won the WWII against NAZI Germany for Stalin. It appears that Poland once again is destined to liberate Europe from Zionist and Muslim barbarians.
I know a lot of Poles who talk about the "occupation from 1945 to 1980" totally ignoring the fact that it was Poles who held all the levers of power and were committed socialists. Anyway Rokossovsky was half Polish, half Belorussian, and became fully Russified during the 1st world war. He had total allegiance to Russia and to Stalin. The fact he was part Polish was exaggerated for propaganda by the Polish government .
You and your facts.
Now, now... everybody is entitled to their own facts.
Especially Americans.
Yes, indeed. Rokossovsky and all his family were born in Warsaw, Polish capital.
He was "Russified" after spending a good time in Stalin's torture chambers and losing all his teeth and few ribs.
As Belorussia, a part of it was historically Polish territories.
Yeah, the Poles kicked Rokossovsky out of Poland in 1956 under Gomulka because of Rokossovsky's brutality towards Polish conscripts into Rokossovsky's labor battalions. These were Poles who served as partisans in the war and were considered by the Soviets as untrustworthy. Rokossovsky worked these Poles to death and had hundreds of protesters shot at Poznan.
IOW a typical murderous Red.
Yes Stalin had him tortured during the '37 purges. To his credit, Rokosovsky never signed the forced confession, an action that saved his life. One can only speculate upon his psychological state as a result of this captivity, but the fact remains that he became an utmost loyal Stalinist all through the war and until his death.
Yup they were stupid before and still nothing has changed.
Yes, they are a great people and they are on the rise after being destroyed repeatedly by Germany and Russia for hundreds of years. They are one of the last great hopes for the survival of the white race, albeit, only the relatively small sub-group of whites known as "Poles" (a Slavic tribe).
lol tarantinos jew face in the corner, the total submission of the white people of europe on one frontpage. The reconquista can't come soon enough.
