The Poles have always been extremely US-friendly and (shockingly) a little distrustful of the major West Euro powers. They've talked about NATO as if the US were the only relevant entity for some time now.

Not surprising that Poland distrusts the major Western Euro powers.
Poland has a long-rear end history of being dicked over by Western Euro powers. And then double-dicked over by territory-adjustments & war.

Supposedly it made me smarter to a minor but measurable degree. Which has been undone by multiple concussions since.

Really the only thing interesting about it was I was one of 7 people hit and all of us have a different account of the sensation. That and one dude had his boots blown apart. I mean literally blew them into pieces.

posting about some old-school spycraft but still valid.
Saw this book at a used book store today.




Decryptions of Soviet spy ring cryptographs commonly known as Venona have been released to the public for a while now.
If you don't understand any of this, go back to school.

The book's http link to the NSA is outdated, but here's a updated link.

also: i love these cryptographic series republications. it's sad that aegean park press dropped off the internet.

You truly missed 50FA's cold-war stories.
That's why you read 10 pages of GBS.

50FA, glad to see you're alive.
you should start reposting your stories/come up with new stories in that Tom Clancy circle-jerk thread.

Cobra II is amazing on the planning for the war. Rumsfeld actually was pushing for just making an enclave near Kuwait, training those who showed up yearning for freedom, and then let freedom take its course. He had to be talked into invading the rest of the country. And he wasn't pushing for that from a risk limitation standpoint, just cost. It was idiots and ideologues top to bottom, even including Rumsfeld, a man described by Kissenger as one of the most ruthless he had ever met. Starry eyed and full of wonder, believing deep in the hearts of all men is an American. Though still penny pinching to the end.

any bets on when the next stage of the Ukraine/Russia border war starts?
My guess: Russian World Cup elimination being blamed by a FIFA/Ukraine conspiracy somehow.

Someone buy Joe an account here and point him to the ask a cop thread. I have so many questions for that guy. Like what does he need a mobile artillery for?
