King Cyclops really does have a thing about sloppy,ignorant ,unprofessional speeches and speech. writing.
At a major speech yesterday in Warsaw,Trumpski called for the "defence of Western Civilisation" warning of forces “from the south or the east, that threaten ..to erase the bonds of culture, faith, and tradition,”
The usual Trumpf anti Muslim dog whistle.
Let's for the purpose of this post ignore criticising the point Trumpski was trying to make.
To make his point he attempted to draw on some polish history:
He praised the heroic martyrdom of the Polish resistance Home Army in August 1944 at the hands of the Nazis.
He and his speech writers obviously ignorant of the fact that uprising was to be coordinated with the arrival of the Soviet Red Army.
Stalin betrayed the Polish resistance by halting the Russian advance on the opposite banks of the Vistula
From where they could[for 8 weeks]watch the Germans slaughter the resistance and the civilian population.
Not sure what Putin made of the Speech
Perhaps if they had asked the State Department for a briefing they would have known what every Polish 11 year old learns and used a more appropriate piece of Polish History
King Jan Sobieski
In the summer of 1683, the main army of the Ottoman[Sunni] Empire, had laid siege at the"Gates of Vienna"l.
- Vienna was the Capital of the Hapsburg Holy Roman Emperor.
- The Catholic Military Centre of European Christendom.
- The Ottomans controlled the Balkans and Ukraine.
- They sought dominion over western Europe.
- The defeat of Hapsburg Vienna would inevitably lead to the fall of France and
- The enslavement of the Italian States and Principalities.
- Domination of the Catholic Bohemians,Moravians and Slovenes.
It was only a matter of time--a week away at best.
To the rescue: King Jan Sobieski.at the head of a Polish Army.
He defeated the Muslim Turk and thus began the long decline of the Ottoman Empire.
The Pope declared Sobieski "Savior of Vienna and Western European civilization."
Sound Familiar?
