I think you're getting way too upset over that article. IMO And I don't think going up to individual Poles and insulting them has anything to do with the issue- but that's just me.

Hi Sig; Re: "Never fear, the Polish troops will stay till the job is done, a commitment with a sense of pride and a call to duty." Again, the war supporters are in hope mode. Even if your polishing of the Polish troops were true, they aren't the ones that decide whether or not they stay "till the job is done". Poland is a democracy, and the simple fact is that the vast majority of the Polish people oppose the occupation: But with U.S-led occupation forces under almost daily attack in Iraq, public opinion in NATO (news - web sites)-member Poland is more skeptical with a recent survey showing 57 percent of Poles opposing the mission and 37 percent supporting it. story.news.yahoo.com It's only a matter of time before coalition partners start yanking their contingents. And it will be big news. -- Carl
