Pride Comes Before the Fall

Of the prelude to World War Two palace historians invariably describe Poland as victim of Nazi aggression. One can also put money on their claim that the Gleiwitz incident was a false flag to excuse the Reich’s subsequent invasion. Modest research reveals this was contrary to reality. Such fraudulent scribes are guilty of falsifying history to improve their chances of being published.

Poland’s historical record as an aggressive nation is a matter of public record. Pitirim Sorokin (Social and Cultural Dynamics) reveals that from the 12th century to 1925 the percentage of years Poland was at war was 58%. At 28% their German neighbour’s record is least among eight European nations.

Fast forward to 1938; the first acts of aggression of the Second World War were carried out by Poland’s armed forces in a serious of serious border attacks on German frontiers. These are chronicled and took place over a considerable period. Repeated complaints by Germany were answered by further military border violations. Just five months before Poland’s attacks on Germany’s frontiers sparked World War Two, Poland invaded and occupied neighbouring Czechoslovakia. As far back as 1930, three years before Adolf Hitler’s NSDAP was elected, Poland explicitly and publicly threatened the invasion and occupation of Germany.

On August 25, 1939, German Chancellor Adolf Hitler formally complained to British Ambassador Sir Neville Chamberlain.

In the preceding nights there have been further twenty-one new frontier incidents; on the German side, the greatest discipline has been maintained. The Polish side has provoked all incidents. Furthermore, commercial aircraft have been shot at. If the Polish Government stated that it was not responsible, it showed it was no longer capable of controlling its own people.

England’s Winston Churchill spoke of a Poland “which with hyena appetite only six months before, joined in the pillage and destruction of the Czechoslovak state.”

To ensure their work is accepted by victors’ media, palace academics obligingly stick to the war victors’ narrative. Poland is depicted as a weak and inoffensive victim of German’s superior war machine. The facts tell quite a different story. Poland‘s war preparedness was far ahead of that of Germany.

By 1939 Poland had created a one million man army; its armed forces were bigger than those of the British Empire. Poland possessed thirty fully modernized infantry divisions backed by 100,000 National Reservists. The Cavendish Encyclopaedia described Poland’s army as ‘one of the largest in the world’.

An armoured brigade of 300 tanks supported the Polish infantry. This puts the lie to the myth that theirs was an operatic cavalry defence force. The Poles did have 37 horse regiments but in 1939 horses were primary transport for all armed forces. Over 50% of Germany’s armed forces were horse drawn.

The Poles operated a modern navy of five submarines, four destroyers, six minesweepers and a minelayer. Poland’s navy continued to fight long after Warsaw fell in October 1939. On April 8, 1940, the German transport Rio de Janeiro was sunk in the Baltic by the Polish submarine Orzel.

The Poles had an air fleet of over 1,000 aircraft. These included long-range medium bombers purpose designed for aggressive warfare. The advanced P.37 ‘Elk’ medium bomber was considerably faster than its German counterpart the Heinkel HE 111 H-16 was. The premier fighter of the Polish Air Force was the nimble PZL P.11; more than a formidable adversary against its German equivalents. The downing of 285 Luftwaffe aircraft during the brief campaign is testimony to Poland’s military airborne abilities.

The Poles did fight bravely and did so under the illusion that British and French promises to come to their aid would be fulfilled. However, having served their purpose to provoke war the Poles were abandoned.

Polish High Command Marshal Rydz-Smigly said, “Poland wants war with Germany and Germany will not be able to avoid it even if she wants it.”
