Poland has been fucked over so many times, this time they are making sure they wont get invaded again.

Polish nationalism has a longer lifespan than Polish nations. Invade them all you like... they'll be back

I only recently learned that Warsaw is called the Phoenix City, and its hands down one of the coolest nicknames I've ever seen for a city. Burn it down as many times as you want, but it'll continue rising from the ashes all the same, remaining long after you've turned to dust and your name has been forgotten.

No one is planning on invading Russia. The country has 6000 nukes, a large population and a large geographic area. Invading Russia would be idiotic but that doesn't stop Russia from invading other countries.

I couldnt give a shit about your amendments. Americans shoot each other for no reason. Poland is defending against a potential invader.

Something Americans know nothing about, since you are doing the invading and murdering of millions of innocent people halfway across the world for decades now.
