#1 ... Dear Denis -

May I call you Denis? Spasibo, tovarich -

Here's the thing: Eighty-eight years ago, your leaders didn't have the balls to invade Poland until you were sure they were defeated by the Nazis, and we know now that the Niemecki had a lot harder time of it than history tells us. Then you stabbed them in the back.

Forty-two years ago, your leaders didn't dare invade Poland to keep them in the Warsaw Pact, because you knew that if you came west again...well, you might win in the end, but you would be ruling over a graveyard, and a good proportion of those graves would be Russian.

I've watched your country now for forty-five years, man and boy, and one thing I gotta tell you - you only talk this way when you're nervous...or scared. And this time, I don't blame you one tiny bit.

The Polish words for 'Never Again' are 'Nigdy Wiecej'.

I strongly suggest you and your leaders learn to recognize them.

Best,

Mike

#2 How much window dressing do they need to cover for their highly guarded nuclear program?
