The fall of the Soviet Union, and along with it murder, tyrrany, oppression, slavery to the state, began in Poland. Solidarity. The Communists couldn’t break those determined individuals. Not even eighteen months of martial law could stop the movement. Bishop, Arch Bishop Wojtyła of Krakow gave the Polish people the courage to stand up to the Soviet’s. Later after he ascended to the Papacy Pope John Paul told the the people of Poland in Warsaw “Let Thy Spirit descend and renew the face of the land! This land!”. and the Soviets couldn’t stop him. The polish people did this for themselves and in turn for the world. Today, September 17 2009, on the Seventieth anniversary of the Soviet invasion of Poland, the president of the United States scrapped plans for a missle shield for Poland. Russia led by former Soviet KGB oficial Vladimir Putin, rejoiced.
I don’t if it’s coincidence that the U.S. met with Poland to inform them of our decision on this dreadful anniversary. If it is coincidence then the President or the State department needs to immediately and publicly apologize to the people of Poland. If it’s not a coincidence then God help us all.
I can’t force a Presidential or State apology, but I can apologize as an American citizen. To all the People of Poland, I am Sorry.
I expect the Cuban embargo to be lifted on January 1.
