6:22 British government stole polish gold deposited in british banks as a payment for fuel, planes and ammo used by polish pilots in air battles over Britain... It abandoned polish airmen figting for safety of Britain. No support, no help with staying in Britain, nothing. It is not just that Poles were not invited.

Thank you for your opinion and emotionts. Peace!
We fight for it!!!!
Thank you Rob...
I have some questions for you:
1. Do you know that the executioners of the SB still live a good life in Poland?
2. Do you see a lack of understanding of Polish arguments among European Union politicians?
3. Have you come across the term Polish dead Camp and the narrative of Israeli politicians about it?
What do You think about it?
Greetings from Poland.

Thank You for this film. If you have little time - check song "Witek Muzyk z Ulicy - Serce Wolności"
Sean is great. I first saw him in Goldenye. An actor who always dies :) I think I only watch Silent Hill with him and he didn't die in it. Yes, your father was right about the Poles in the parade. that was the reason. We are now a free country, but history likes to repeat itself and we have Russian aggression again. So we'll see what the future brings. I saw an English low-budget film, Devision 303, and it was a fine film, but I wish movie companys shot something on a bigger scale. Hollywood movies ignore the existence of Poles. We need more classic movies like Eagle Has Landed or A One Bridge Too Far. I remember Gene Hackman as Lieutenant Commander Sosabowski. Great role and he tried to speak in polish too. If we create history together, we should remember it together.
6:16 Polish pilots who had taken part in the Battle of Britain were not allowed to take part in the Victory Parade. This ban was opposed by British pilots.
initially, according to the plans, the allies were to land in Greece, but Stalin did not agree to it because the Balkans and Poland would like to enter the sphere of influence of the USSR, that's why D dey took place in Normandy and Polish Czechoslovakia and the rest of Central Europe were sold to Stalin in Tehran and Jaucja. For peace. We are feeling the effects of that today.
Nonsense.
I'm a 50 year old Australian man and my wife is Polish. Poland is the greatest country on earth. The people are educated, hard working and they don't take s**t from anyone 😊 I wish that I was Polish.
Oh man you are the merger of my content in one place! :D
@@RobReacts1 Funny that you say that. I just finished watching your reaction to "This is Bathurst" with Mark Larkham 😂 God damn that's a great video.
I'm a 67 Australian of Polish parents. My father's regiment 63rd was destroyed September 15/ 16th during the only successful counter attack on the Bzura river.1939. After 9mths in hospital was sent to Germany as Labour. Mum's family had the distinction of being on the 1st train load of Polish deportation to the USSR. Archangelsk was their destination, it was10th February 1940. Russia never left our home in Australia, never a day without Mum mentioning that accursed time.
Thank you. ❤

Poles fought first, Poles were and are the first to help. They helped in the fights for the freedom of England, France, Norway. They helped in the fight for American independence. When Poland needed help, nobody helped. This is history and the past, but it is worth remembering and drawing conclusions. Thank you for this reaction
We have helped and continue to help Ukrainians. What price will we pay for it? Because the fact that our country has always been kicked in the ass is known to every Pole. Hence all these prejudices of the older generations, intolerance. In some Poles, a lack of trust in other countries, mainly Russia, Ukraine and Germans, has been ingrained for generations, which is caused by such and no other history. Of course, it changes with each year, but I think that there are still a lot of people who, if you asked on the street - who they don't like, would say, for example, Germans, and for what reason? For no reason! This aversion to other countries is in many people's blood, even though so many years have passed
The history of the 20th century is a connected vessel, every event in Europe is felt to a greater or lesser extent in all countries, such as the civil war in Spain due to the participation of the International Brigades. The outbreak of World War II gave the Greeks a great national hero, Jerzy Iwanow-Szajnowicz, the son of a Russian and Polish, who settled in Greece. It so happens that during almost all twentieth-century conflicts in various countries, on the European or African continent, Poles participated directly or indirectly, and therefore our history is intertwined with the history of other countries and nations, some remember it because they want to, others do not remember because they do not they know or don't want to.
@@aggiecat Don't like germans for no reason?!
You're joking, right?
I'll give you one reason and it is german intolerance of Poles. Remember german Katerina Barley who stood in EU parliament and said "We need to starve Poland" , just because she doesn't like choice of Polish voters? There are tons of examples where germans treat us as a second category of members of EU.
@@misiat.6460 ok, you have a reason, I have my own one too, but I've met people who currently don't have any specific reason, they haven't met any German, and if they don't like it, it's because the war where such a person is 20-30 years old and this war he/she didn't know. I don't know about your reason because I haven't watched TV in 5 years and I just don't care about political bullshit. Remember, there are a lot of people in our country who are also not interested in this topic, as long as there are 500+, and they will still say how much they dislike Germans without any specific argument, because someone said or because this hated has been in the family for generations
@@aggiecat We don't need a reason to don't like Germans, but if you need one ask people in northern Poland how old germans behave on their vacations - no basic respect, very judgy and rude. But with neighbor you don't like, you can live in peace and have common goals. Russians on the other hand... Damn they are something... My grand mother once told me that when Germans came, they killed men and raped women. When Russians came, the kill men, rape and kill women (not allways in this order) and kids, kill live stock. And at the end they even shit to barrels with food. To sum up : Germans - not that bad, Russians - to hell with them. Let's not forget Ukrainians... we do have beef with them too for mass murders of Poles during WW2 and not appreciating us after orange revolution. But despite this, they are in need. And Poles help nations in distress even if we are not appreciated. Cause this is honor which Russians don't have [and Germans think they do :) ]
Watching the reports of youtubers from different countries visiting Poland, I often came across the statement that Poles are "cold" in perception. They don't smile on a daily basis, they are rather closed and distrustful. or we keep our distance. Everything changes with closer acquaintance and later we are perceived completely differently. our affairs without meddling in the matters of others. We ask "how are you?" when we really want to know, not when they are empty words. We keep our distance while getting to know and "examining" the other person to be sure whether it's worth opening up without getting "stabbed in the back" .All our history has shaped us in this way, but it has never changed that we have always been a helpful, trustworthy nation, able to support even by shedding their blood for it.
You get the clue in these phrases. Dzięki :)
Jesteśmy normalni tylko nowoczesna głupkowata nowomoda na ciągłą (sztuczną) szczęśliwość wmawia nam co innego. Człowiek ma prawo przeżywać życie tak jak chce i mieć zdrowy dystans do innych. Ja osobiście znacznie lepiej się z tym czuję.
i trully encourage you to read book 'Traumaland' it pretty much explains your observation from psychological view. Polish society is not anything extraordinary in that 'cold' vibe, after centuries of constant threats our society is simply damaged. Our war did not end in 1949 but in 1989 (USSR occupation). There are many people in Polish society who still live amonghst us, who lost their entire families, homes and wealth either in WW2 or post war soviet harassment - of course we are traumatized and we dont smile that much.
I just dont understand why it is not common fact taught at schools that we are still traumatized society and that going to psychotherapy if you need one is perfectly normal and good thing to do (many people still percieve that going for psychological help is as sign of weakness/ being weirdo/psychopath and thats why they prefer not to).

@@Agulkk that is true, when we don't have outside enemy we fight between us. hehehe

Pope John Paul II, Karol Wojtyła, when asked why God put Poland between Germany and Russia, replies that: no one else could stand it"
You will know great people by their one-liners.
You also heard the early history of mankind when God placed people all over the earth, he heard many, many complaining. One group of people didn't want fertile farmland, farming was too much work and they wanted oil, so God gave them oil deposits but took away the fertile land, leaving sand. Others wanted gold, diamonds, etc., which he gave them, but he took away fertile land and sufficient water. God stopped over Poland, and saw the people farming and singing and asked why they were so hapy. The Poles told him "We love our land, we have mountains, but not too many, thick forests, but not too thick, rivers and lakes but not too many, snow in the winter, but not too much snow, and warm sunny summers but not too much sun. We are grateful for our perfect land and all you have given us and we thank you!" God smiled and thought, "At last here are people who appreciate..." God stopped in mid-thought, then said to the Poles "You haven't met your neighbors yet, have you!"

The first words of the Polish anthem are: Poland has not yet perished as long as we live. As a Pole, I know that we will never beg anyone for anything!
When we live...
Trouble is most people here are Poles; folks in the West still haven't learnt: now with the war in Ukraine I keep reading that Ukraine "should" start talking with Russia, it's easy to give away someone's else land :(
I've always been amused by this distinction between the Na-zis and the Sov-iets. Especially the fact that many Russians think that they were some kind of heroes who helped defeat the Naz-is. And the truth was that for Poles occupied by both sides there was no difference. It was just Naz-is on the left and Naz-is on the right. Both sides led by angry mustache man.
Oh and about Allies. There is fun polish joke on that. What represents colors on polish flag? White is for honor, red is for blood, and blue is for loyal allies.
Even with shooting civilians in the head, Nazis were more civilized occupant than what came from the east.
Nazis and communists.
Wrong in here Both Nazis and Communists were Left. Nazi comes from National Socialism and Communists are just Communists, both are far left and both were using totalitarian fascistic methods or repression and persecution.
Funy joke.

That face when he heard "we break the enigma code" 😂
Yup that's not what they teach you. Same as Maria Skłodowska Curie or Chopin is french for french people...
Poles did not cracked enigma code alone but they provide key informations without which it would not have been possible. Enigma code was cracked by colaboration of French secret service, British government and Polish Cipher Bureau. Sadly many books point only Alan Turing of the one who cracked code but it was great team work
@@grodt88 not true, it was cracked in 1932. But there were 2 things: during war key was changed everyday so more frequently then before war and Warsaw was under occupation and possibility of loosing whole project was high but also improving process in this invironmrnt was way too slow, hence Poles decided to share.
@@grodt88 learn history from books not from movies… please…
@@marynarz79 its literally wrote in Encyclopedia Britannica. Learn history from books without propaganda
@@grodt88 if you want the more exact thing we are taught in Poland Poles cracked the Enigma code first not quite meaning we cracked the whole machine at once. We got our hands on the enigma machine and cracked the first code , then we shipped off the machine as well as the first Code we cracked and the method we used for cracking it that lead to cracking the whole machine later so in fact we did crack the Enigma code. Then the people who you mentioned cracked the rest of the machine and remaining codes. So yes Poles cracked the Enigma Code first.
Imagine you just cracked the cesar's cipher by moving the letter one forward then some one sends a different message with a 4 letter forward difference since you cracked the one letter forward code you know now the basic working of the cipher and can just move it one forward until you get the right solution. Would be a d#ck move if someone said they cracked the cesars cipher because they made like 30ish tables with each variation of the cipher when you were actually the first one who cracked the first code and understood how the cipher worked
As I mentioned in the commentary to the film about how Poland is arming itself today in fear of Russia, Poland has had bad luck with alliances many times. In 1939 England and France stood on the border of Germany while Poland was fighting. In 1945, the Western Allies gave Poland to Stalin. In 1920, when Poland was fighting to stop the Bolsheviks, the Allies urged Poles to surrender. Hence, most Poles are distrustful of alliances. We want to have allies, but we have a conviction in the back of our minds that we can be alone again. And the EU is even worse, because today Germany has the most important voice in it, and why we cannot trust them to the end is probably obvious to everyone. Especially when the contemporary policy of Germany towards Poland consists mainly in preaching from the position of superiority. And we remember this in a different context. And when these Germans start to make deals with Russia, we get especially nervous.
Agreed. I don't believe in NATO's Article 5. Based on its wording: an attack against one is an attack against all, so it should make us feel safe, right? (spoiler alert, wrong) However, then the Article also adds that each member state should react to such an attack as they "deem necessary". Well, what if the major member states "deem necessary" abandoning us all over again to avoid potential WW3 and all the remaining states have no power to help us anymore as most of them will be similarly threatened by that time (I'm thinking about Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Slovakia, etc.). We must be able to stand alone so that all the major players see the profit in standing with us. Si vis pacem, para bellum.
Well, that's not much different from what we are doing now... Ukraine is fighting and we are standing on the borders... Doesn't mean we are not helping. Nobody really wants to go to war until they can't avoid it... We can't be one sided when talking about history.
@@kuba6156 No, the difference is we don't have an alliance with Ukraine to intervene militarily, but England and France had an alliance with Poland. And nobody helped us then as we're helping now with supplies and other stuff even despite not having any obligation.

This may be the wisest commentary on The Unconquered I've heard on youtube. Well done, very accurate observations
Thanks mate. I do my best. Always honest and humble
- God, why did you place us Poles between Germany and Russia?
- Because no other nation would survive it.
And now we are facing another wave of communism, this time on a global scale.
And we will resist it, as we always have!
As a Pole, thank you for the video and especially for mentioning the attitude of Churchill.
You are 100% right, the sons should not suffer for sins of the fathers, we must move on, but it is very difficult for the Polish nation, because it is not only the WW2 when we were treated similar way by some of the neighbours.
Keep doing the great stuff you do, Rob! You are great!
Sad part is that nobody pays enough attention to underground state which is unique in entire history.
7:24 That part with the soviet iron fist (technically: polish communists) crushing Polish cities may be unclear to foreigners. These are the cities in which Poles grabbed their weapons and instigated fights or mass protests against the Soviet system. In my city, Poznan, in 1956, the Communists used 10,000 soldiers and 400 tanks to crush the protests.
This makes the Poles different from the Russians. The Russians never revolted. And they still don't revolt.
The fact that we were not invited to the Victory March we remember to this day and we teach our children about it so that they remember that you have to count only on yourself and not on your allies.
Hi, so I have something to say about the Poles not trusting England, and whole NATO. So because what happend to us those 100 years ago, some of us are terrified that we are going to be left alone AGAIN. In our history, it happend too many times, but 100 years ago, when we had a document signed with france and England, that they would not let GERMANS, invade, there was no saying about the russians, so all Polish forces came together at the Russian border, and we were quite surprised when there were no intensions from our allies to help. It just showed us, how signed papers are nothing to anyone. Its so much in our roots, that it plays a very big margin in todays politics. The most heard of were the words of Mateusz Morawiecki "We won't get ANY support from NATO, if we won't be able to defend ourselves".
Sorry for my bad engilsh, I'm a Pole
No you did a great job with your English! :)

Bravo Poland ! ❤
Geography's not kind to Poland. Countries like the UK and the US are located very favourably when it comes to development and defence, Poland most certainly isn't.
Poland must eventually grow up and realise from its history that alliances are not worth the paper they are written on and that no one is coming to help. For hundreds of years Poland has fought alongside her allies only to be betrayed by them; sometimes she has even been treated far better by long-standing enemies.
Simply as a matter of survival, Poland has no choice other than to have the most modern and potent army in Europe. It will be good to have the means to fight and die and win in defence of Polish soil on Polish soil, instead of fighting for so-called allies as unpaid mercenaries only to be betrayed and eventually expunged from their histories.
As a Pole, I am incredibly proud of the history of my country. Thank you for showing this to more people abroad. :)
It's created and published for Poles, not for foreigners.
You know, the resentment may be coming from the fact that we're talking about our mom/dad or grandpas'/grandmas' stories involved. My granddad was imprisoned by Nazis during the WW2 because he was a reserve officer and he didn't showed up on their calling. He was a polish teacher actually. He spent the whole war inside the prison, worked in Majdanek concentration camp. He barely survived, was saved from death only by catching typhus - ended up in a death cell, basically waiting to die, but then the Soviets came and he was put to hospital. His wife, my grandma was going 30 km by foot every day to try and get him anything so that he wouldn't die of hunger. So as you can imagine, it can be hard to not be at least a bit sad or being somewhat distant to ww2 allies. It's true - not one of us was living at those days but some stories are still living in the current generations...
Every Pole watches a reaction video to "The Unconquered" at least once every two years.
Haha well make sure you just rewatch mine in 2 years time 😉
I'm very proud of what Poland went through and though many people say Kraków or Gdańsk, or whatever city is "more beautiful" than Warsaw, in my eyes Warsaw is the most beautiful city in the world. Not just because of how it looks like today but because of how it looked like when the war ended. It was only 78 years since WW2 and Warsaw, from a total ruin, became one of the most prospering cities in Europe... It makes me so damn proud.
That being said, I'm also very happy and proud seing Poland becoming a real "leader of the west" when it comes to Ukrainian war with GB and USA standing strong with us, helping us push other European countries to help Ukraine as much as possible. And it really brings me joy to hear, after years of Poland being portrayed as poor country and basically a backyard of Russia, that now our allies speak about us with great respect and tourists from all around the world come to Poland to see for themselves how much we grew since reclaiming our freedom in 1989
Cześć i Chwała Bohaterom.
Nice video :)
as a Pole I have to admit that we always fight when our freedom is threatened but as soon as we have our freedom, it's hard for us to respect that gained freedom for a longer period of time and we tend to argue a lot between ourself only to unite again when a next threat arise. That's hard to understand but that's how it is 😅 a mad circle.
The saddest part for me is.. we always helped everyone around. Always, even NOW even tho MOST of Poles dont like Ukraine, because of their cruelty toward Polish people during WWII, we help them as much as we can.
I don't think most of Poles hate Ukrainians.
Forgive but not forget
@@AnthemsOfEurope I would rather say, we don't trust them in many reasons
"Forgive but not forget"
Yeah it is important, but to forgive the other side need to say "sorry" in the right way (it isn't only about Ukrainians but also Germans or Russians)
You rather mean the polish far right doesnt like Ukraine which lines up pollings
i think lots poles are ..tired of ukraininans. Personally i dont understand that, but you sure heard voices that tell 'i want a free monthly train ticket too' when some cities give that to UA citizens. anwser to that was 'there is free metro in Kijów, go there' :> There is fuckin war there, people dying, civilians dying, schools being bombarded to the ground and poles being jelous of some small benefits that were given to ukraininans is so stupid that it amost looks like those people are hired russian trolls :P noone forget about wołyń. Less and less care about it in context of nowadays events.
I'm from Poland, I'm a woman and tears come to my eyes every time I see this wonderful video that sums up the history of my country wonderfully.
I disagree with you that the current Germans have nothing to do with the Nazis. Look at current Russia, how its citizens behave, how they manipulate history. They aren`t afraid of anything. Why? Because on the example of Germany they know that there is no responsibility for such crimes. The Germans have never been responsible for the deaths of Poles. They never paid my country any war reparations, they even promised that they would come back to our lands and take them from us again. Not only did they kill, but they enriched themselves with their crime by robbing my country of everything. The current Germans are their ancestors, proud and not feeling any responsibility for their actions. They are masters of speech, they serve other countries with word salad and what do their actions show? The Germans contributed to a huge extent to the current situation in Ukraine, enriched Russia, convinced other countries in Europe to cooperate with them, to buy their oil and gas. This isn`t a coincidence. I'm of the opinion that Germany is still on the dark side of the force.
I hate them just as the Ukrainians hate Russia now... and only those who understand the history of war will understand us. Such trauma lasts for generations and the fact that Germany doesn`t treat us with respect on the international arena, even in the European Union they throw logs under our feet is a clear signal for us - history will repeat itself someday. All that remains for us is to remember who we are and why it is worth fighting for our country.
Poland should finally begin to learn from its own mistakes, as well as send Russia a huge reparation for the half a million dead Soviet soldiers who liberated Poland from the Nazi occupation in 1944.
Polski duch walki, poswiecenia, wiary i patriotyzmu to nasz kod narodowy!!!
I got so used to people saying we (Poles) are just thieves, heavy drinkers etc. It's so nice and refreshing to watch someone be so so so respectful towards Poland and Poles. Thank you
Because during peace time we fight with each other about everything but when the external enemy comes we inite truly. That was during WW I, WW II,the beginning od pandemy, the russian invasion on Ukraine. We are the same for centuries. If we are the same as 100 years ago, so do other nations. That is why we should not trust entirely to our allies.

It depends on what's are your circles.
Poles fought for your country and you simply betrayed them and fell into the hands of Stalin
I would say, it probably wasnt as simple as that
@@RobReacts1 Or it was. Churchill thought about his country, Poland was useful, so he helped us, but when it was no longer helpful he left us with soviets for another 50 years.
@@RobReacts1 Yeah I mean Britain probably didn't want to risk getting into another war against the Soviet Union right after WW2.
@@RobReacts1 Churchill once said "We have no lasting friends, no lasting enemies, only lasting interests" let that quote sink in with the context of this video
Sadly our "allies" sold us to ZSRR after the war...
But Czechs were present in the military parade in Britain and they as well were under the Sovie regime.
Czechs always were suburbs of Europe, distant in their mountains.
Poles conquer Moscow for 2 years.
Russians do remember those types of facts.
Czechia had a minimal impact on the war, being freely annexed by Germany and later conquered by the Soviets, while Poland had actually fought with the Soviets and were also enslaved by them so there was clear resentment and animosity
"Not Germany, but Poland is our greatest war conquest" - Stalin in June 1945. See? He probably had this obsession since 1920.
My grandma's uncle fought in the Anders' Army, including under Monte Casino. Because of the fear of retribution from the comunist regime, he didn't get to come home until late 1960s. His sisters spent over 15 years not knowing if he was even alive
So few people in the West acknowledge or even know of how dreadful life was under Soviet occupation and control. My father and his brothers always hated Roosevelt, Truman, Stalin as well as Hitler and it wasn't until I was older that I understood the full extent of what had happened. My grandfather and grandmother were born in preWW1 Poland, which officially didn't exist, but they always identified themselves as people from Poland on all documentation, they spoke Polish, my father, his brothers and sisters all spoke Polish and I learned some Polish as a child, too. My father and uncles were very aware of the betrayl of Poland, but this was never taught in US schools, of course. One of my uncles was a pilot in the US Army Air Corps in the 1940s, and I found an old picture of him in uniform in a trunk after my father had passed. My uncle was wearing both the US Army Air Corps wings and the wings of the RAF. I asked him about this, he told me he had been seconded to the RAF, but wouldn't say anything else, and I knew to not press for information. I think he flew B-24 Liberators, possibly out of Northolt, but definitely out of England. I had actually not even known he was in the Army Air Corps until I was going into the US Air Force and my mother mentioned it. That was in the late 1970's, and he didn't give me any information. Even in 2002, he still did not speak of it. I think there was just too much pain for him to open the door to that room of his soul. I pray he and my father, and all of my deceased relatives are finally at peace.

Your ikea cupboard looks good. Not just the Poles that Churchill screwed over, so was Australia, no where near as bad as what happened to Poland.
There you go, something the Aussies and poles have in common
Its hard to understand from outside how we feel,when we,Poles,watch even that kind of movie,simple cartoon movie. Our history,so paintful,with constant up and downs.Humans have this weird,yet phenomenal condition-attaching your soul to land when u was born,where your roots are strong,where u live...For us is very important to world see us,our achievments,our determination..maybe cos deep inside us is still pain..and anger about 90% last 230 years.We feel pride now,that against all odds,our country exist and we can again climb on this ladder of geo-politic opportunities.

The politics hasn't changed, we are in NATO now, but russia is nuclear power - which makes things worse. If not for Ukrainian bravery and russians incompetence, we would have russian troops on polish border and ultimatum to the west "abandon Poland and there will be no nuclear war" - what do you think would happen in such scenerio?
I think you and I know the answer, and it is not an answer we like. Poland and Ukriane can be very strong together, but the western corporate powers need to be prevented from taking over.
Yes lot of poles dont trust allies and even so far that they say we need to be strong on our own because nato is gonna leave us if things go sour. Because when we needed help from allies they left us to rot. This is why we help ukrain so much because we know the fealing and we have honor. So we will fight for freedom not only ours but ukrainians as well maybe not on front lines now but certain is we fight diplomaticly for ukraine and we help them as much as we can

Fun fact. Roosevelt was more interested in Poland buying horses from US after the war than holocaust news.
I'm glad you've liked this video. Every time I watch it (always in English) the lector's voice stick in my head.
There is SABATON - Uprising (Official Music Video) I strongly recommend. They sing in English and there are English subtitles. It's about Warsaw Uprising 1944. One of the actors is former Polish general Waldemar Skrzypczak, Sabaton's fan, active comentator of Russian - Ukrainian war. The other actor Peter Stormare - also their fan and some Polish actors. There is also Sabaton's amazing concert which spread their fame in Poland - Woodstock Live 2012 - my favourite music concert ever, I've watched it a few times already. :-)
It certainly helped having Sean Beans voice as it created incredible tension.
Cześć Agnieszko.
W 1940 gdy Francja kapitulowała któraś z polskich brygad odmówiła kapitulacji i postanowiła się przedrzeć do Szwajcarii, zresztą z sukcesem, byli internowani do końca wojny.
W polu sąsiadował z nią jakiś pułk Legii Cudzoziemskiej (chyba spahisi z Mauretanii/Algierii ?).
Ich porucznik przywiózł Polakom sztandar pułku i powiedział:
- w waszych rękach nie będzie zhańbiony.

I've been amazed by Swedes, writing songs in English about Polish military history.
Add "40 to 1" from Sabaton to your list. It is about first days of war fight.
Politicians were to blame, not ordinary people, that was the reality.
It's important that people like you show the truth. THANK YOU
Ale ci ,,zwykli,, ludzie(bandyci i zbrodniarze Niemieccy) wymordowali 6 milionów obywateli Polskich... a nie politycy.
Could You tell us about the history of the Green Jackets?
Oraz proszę o reakcję na "Legendy polskie" by Allegro.
O! Byłoby super! Legendy Polskie są the best, a już dawno nie widziałam na to reakcji :- )
It's not that easy to say I wasn't around then. It's not about you per se or your generation.
It is about the whole nation, its history and historical memory. It is also about decisions made by this nation again and again in their eloquence the same.
So it is with Germany. They always wanted to dominate and conquer Europe, especially the Slavic nations. Nothing has changed. Times change, perhaps methods change (now Germany conquers not militarily but economically, and when the economy fails, EU institutions in their pockets do the right job to serve German interests), but they still have the same contempt for others and misunderstanding of neighbors, their culture, needs, interests, which do not have to be identical with German ones.
Saying "I wasn't there, it's not my fault" is therefore a gross simplification and infantilization of the discussion.
Regards
Maybe our country is not the best but i always as a Pole will be proud of our history, that not many countries would survive as we... We had no country and we fight for other because we are like this!
Our White and Red flag represent purity and goodness earned by blood.
Have you heard of Polish bear 🐻 soldier true story? 😜
watching this makes me feel very grateful to our ancestors.
On the night of September 20/21, 1610, Żółkiewski's Polish troops entered Moscow and stayed there in varying numbers until October 26, 1612 of the new style. They occupied the Kremlin and two districts: Kitajgorod and Belgorad. On October 8, Hetman Żółkiewski personally entered the Kremlin, where the boyar pride awaited him.
XVI and XVII century in our history was thd best. That is why Russians hate us, they have the national holliday remembering the end of polish invasion.
poland should have phenix not an eagle as a symbol
I know what You saying about Poles lack of trust. It's not having grudge with rest of the word. It's more about values coded into country's cultures. Politics, money, power on one end, while Poles rather be fair than wealthy. Now, of course it's generalisation, but that trend is in fact visible in "bold" and "rude" politics of Poland... That's at least one man's take... Cheers!
Have you heard about the Winged Hussars? Sabaton did a song about them.
Erm, no I dont think I have
@@RobReacts1 Sabaton - the Swedish band also singing Aces in Exile (about the Battle of Britain) and Uprising and some more about Poland... - I strongly recommend!
@@RobReacts1 Winged hussars are what you may call Polish Overpowered counter on almost anything you want. A 16th century cavalry (the strongest in Europe I will add).
5:15 this P with like two anchor things, if anyone's curious is PW Polska Walcząca meaning Poland Fighting. Probably most poles know that and probably very few foreigners do.
6:20 all true. sadly. Both the US Roosevelt and the UK Churchill handed us over on a silver platter out of fear of upsetting "uncle" stalin. It was called Jalta Triumvirate. To this day in polish language Jałta (city name) is basically an equivalent for treason of the ugliest kind. Not used often nowadays but still there.
We are proud of our ancestors for what they showed us the way. They are the true soul of our nation. A signpost to true humanity. HEROES

6:17 If you want to know the truth, I recommend a wonderful book by Stanley Cloud, Lynne Olson - A Question of Honor.
In Poland it is said that there are three truths: the truth, the holy truth and shit the truth. What France, Great Britain and the United States did to Poland and
Poles at that time was not a matter of upsetting Stalin, it was a matter of loss of honor, trust and betrayal of an ally from the very beginning, from the Abbeville Conference of September 12, 1939, to violations of the provisions of the Atlantic Charter at the "big three" conferences in Tehran, Yalta.
9:24 We Poles are eager to remember history, because as one of the few nations we have felt on our skin that it likes to repeat itself more often than others think.
Ander's comeback...it's simply ... CRAZY!

Great commentary ! Than you for your job and support for Poland
Poprostu uczciwy i dociekliwy czlowiek
This clip is so powerful: the story, the message, how well made it is - simply amazing. Of course, there are some shortcuts, there are few inaccuracies, but it doesn't matter much. Oh, and your commentary at the end: it shouldn't be about today's Germans vs today's Poles - if you look carefully one of the heroes of this movie, Pilecki, was actually killed by Poles, so it's not about nationality, it's about doing the right thing - if you believe it was wrong and unjust that Polish soldiers were not invited on the victory march, that it was evil that Americans done nothing about the Holocaust and that Poland should be independent country after the war then you've got the message of this video right.
Not only "American".... American Jews ware silent too. There ware only few Jewish organizations (mostly very conservative... "TRADITION" as we remember from "fiddler on the roof" ) who made march to force America to help.
I hope you realize these were communist Poles who danced to the tune of the Kremlin. Poland had a lot of diversity in their population at the beginning of the war, there were Poles of German heritage who supported Hitler and there were Poles who were socialists supporting the Soviets. When the war ended, the Soviet-sympathizing Poles were placed in charge, and this did not change until the 1990s. The Soviet-puppet Poles killed anyone who could be a leader, and war heroes were at the top of the list. Priests, too. You might have heard of Father Jerzy Popielsku (I'm not certain I have his name spelled correctly). The socialists did not like him, either.

I love Polish people because of their history, determination and bravery even though they don't like any Muslims which is sad. But it's ok. It takes time for someone to change mindset because not everyone is bad.
I was surprised to find out that my country Pakistan hosted tons of Polish refugees during WWII. Many of the Poles are buried in Christian graveyard in Pakistan. This is completely unknown to the public. I wonder why this is not shown in our media. Also when Pakistan Airforce was established, the Poles taught Pakistani Airforce how to combat in air because are really good at this.
W nocy 20/21 września 1610 roku oddziały Żółkiewskiego weszły do Moskwy i przebywały tam w różnej liczebności do 26 października 1612 roku nowego stylu. Zajęły Kreml oraz dwie dzielnice: Kitajgorod i Biełgorad. Hetman Żółkiewski 8 października wkroczył osobiście na Kreml, gdzie oczekiwała go duma bojarska.
Legally, of course, you and a German born after WWII are not to blame. But you and the Germans profited from living in a free country. We did not use this profit. And our "parents" did everything to live in a free society. And the consequences of this betrayal and destruction of Poland were imposed on people who were not even born. You think it's okay?
DNA memory is a real thing. I'll never trust people that hurt us or left us when we asked for help.
If it wasn't for the UK then you'd still be ruled by nazis. Show some gratitude.
Do you know what happened after release of this video and get like 1 million views in a few hours and then TH-cam took it down. They release again but all the momentum was gone 😢
Pole asked the God ,, why did you allocate my country between Germany and Russia.....?
And God said ...because nobody else would survive....
and this short movie shows why we Poles want as more guns as possible now , When the neighbors have already penetrated our land from both sides before, and the allies came too late, it is hard to believe that the allies will come on time this time , so allies yes , but not only allies , so we want so many guns as possible to not repeat history because we do not want to be dependent only on allies, because history has already shown once that, well, before they move it will be after Poland, "prevention is better than cure "
A co o okupacji mojego kraju przez UE? Gdzie nasza polska duma, niezależność i suwerenność.. odeszła wraz z kolorowymi flagami i flagami obcych krajów.. taaa
The parallels of current war to what happaned with Poland in WWII are disturbingly accurate.
Macron called to not humiliate Russia, even though it was alredy after Butcha masacre.
Poland collapsed after a month of fighting and backstab from USSR.
Ukraine finally got the support, only because it survived long enough.
If it would collapsed, there would still be a gaspipe to Germany and Macron calling everyday to ensure that war criminal feels fine.
Zgadzam się w 100% Gdy na Ukrainie przeprowadzano wszystkie możliwe zbrodnie znane z II wojny , towarzystwo zastanawiało się czy wprowadzić sankcje , lub je opóźniano .Gdy słyszę o tych wszystkich zbrodniach czuje jakby przeniesiono mnie do II Wojny Światowej. I mam wrażenie że komunistyczne śmiecie postanowiły przypomnieć obecnemu młodemu pokoleniu czym jest wojna i co człowiek potrafi wyrządzić drugiemu
Yes we are aware that allies didn't want to infuriate Stalin that's somehow understandable but demanding money for using British planes and fuel during the Battle of Britain and also not inviting Poland as an only country to Victory Parade was kinda a knife into the back. And before someone mention Squadron 303 was invited but only if they went in British Uniform which they refused. We know that allies on purpose stopped advancing towards Berlin to leave it to Stalin.
Hi. Thanks for your reaction and kind words. Did you know that for more than 75 years British claimed that they broke code of enigma. They claimed polish cryptologists were cheating. And only in 2014 they admitted that polish cryptologist broke enigma code, that before that British did not really understood how enigma really worked and without polish help they would not do anything with that. It is really shame that for a 75 they were so proud for not their accomplishments. You even recently made a movie about how Turing broke enigma code. I don't know smile or cry about it.
Since 1932 the Polish codebreakers Marian Rejewski, Henryk Zygalski & Jerzy Różycki worked within BS4 (the Polish general staff cipher Bureau focussed on German decryption & intelligence), and together with VITAL assistance given by the French intelligence officer Gustave Bertrand (who had cultivated a German informant codenamed "Asché" who had provided French Intelligence with tons of vital data including a full nazi procedural manual for use of the enigma encryption device), had by the purchase of a commercial version of the early enigma device and LOTS of analysis eventually broken into German army and air force 3 rotor encryption networks, this was a fantastic achievement, but it is true to say that they at no time did they crack German Kriegsmarine encryption due to the additional layers of security employed by the German navy.
In December 1938 the nazis introduced a further 2 interchangeable encryption rotors to the enigma system, which immediately brought the vast majority of Polish decryption efforts to a grinding halt, which is where it remained up until the outbreak of WW2. In the weeks prior to the outbreak of WW2 the Polish research work was passed to the French, who in the six months they had it in their possession added little to the accumulated knowledge, and to the UK where the British government seized it with both hands, and made its study top priority. So was instigated the British "ULTRA" project.
Jerzy Różycki elected to stay behind and work in Vichy France where, unknown to the Germans he worked on an a seperate secret encryption system, which bore no tangible fruit before his death in 1942.
Marian Rejewski & Henryk Zygalski were, for security reasons, not included in the UK "ULTRA" project, and so took no further part in British decryption efforts.
The British "ULTRA" project took the non working foundation research of the Polish decrypters and from there massively expanded that research to once again break into nazi 3 rotor enigma, this was followed in 1942 by the cracking of the improved kriegsmarine 4 rotor enigma network (SHARK), as well as simultaneously breaking into the FAR more complex "lorenz" cipher device used by the German army & navy high commands (TUNNY), before finally cracking the "Geheimschreiber" encryption device used by both the Luftwaffe high command as well as the top level of the nazi government (STURGEON), on top of these British achievements another product of the ULTRA program was the building of the world's first programmable electronic computer (COLOSSUS) to speed up the breaking of German codes. This was designed by a British telephone engineer (Tommy Flowers), which transformed British decryption from a process which often only gave results weeks after the message was eavesdropped on by the British, to a state of affairs where the British were reading top level communications at the same time as the intended German recipient.
The early Polish codebreakers did indeed provide the "acorn" from which the British cultivated the "mighty oak" of ULTRA.
The only occupied nation who never gave in, the only occupied nation in which the Nazis executed protectors of Jews (and ordinary Poles saved more Jews than any other), the Polish Underground had the material support of over 30% of the population (compared to France's 4%), and the only nation who fought the Nazis that the cowards in Britain did not give recognition to until the 1990s.
