Yeah, what has Poland ever done for us?  And it's not like the west hasn't turned their collective backs on them before.  Really, the Kurds, Jews, etc should be used to it by now.

What exactly does Poland need defending from? Please don't make yourself into a joke by going on some delusional Putin/Russia rant.

Yeah, there is no chance in hell of the bear turning into a bigger dick if NATO goes away...no chance of that at all.

I'm glad the people you guys vote for have more balls than you do.

There is no chance of Russia invading Poland. The thought is downright comical. This reminds me of that troll with his "Russia will invade Alaska and Obama will do nothing about it" nonsense. Have you forgotten that Poland is an EU member, oh yeah that's right those Europeans are all wusses who always surrender. Actually the more relevant issue is that there is absolutely no reason or nothing to gain from Russia invading Poland, certainly nothing that would make up for their status as a pariah state afterwards that would result in an economic collapse, that they don't share a border (and no Belarus is not a Russian puppet state anymore than Canada is an American one) and that the Russian military can barely handle its own internal conflicts (they got beat by Chechnya for quite awhile.) Please note that even the Polish poster here knows that. I'm pretty sure if you were to poll Poland you'd find that fear of a Russian invasion is pretty low on their list of worries.

Seriously, if you think something this outrageous is likely you're going to need a more logical argument than "The leaders of Russia are dicks"

Oh yeah they do have a border. Still that little exclave isn't a strong area to launch an invasion from. And the EU may not be military alliance, but it doesn't mean there would be serious economic repercussions for Russia. EU countries would also be giving tons of arms to the Poles and the guerrilla warfare there would be nasty. Worse than Chechnya because its a much larger country. Meanwhile they gain virtually nothing from it.

Because there is absolutely nothing to be gained from invading Poland? As pointed out before, if Chechnya could give so much pain to Russia, imagine what a country several times the size would do.

The only person in Russia who seriously talks about this is that Zhirovnovsky nut.
