It reminds me of an old Polish joke:

A Pole finds a magic lamp, strokes it, and a genie comes out.

"I will grant you three wishes. They can be anything your heart desire."

"I wish for the Mongols to invade Poland!'

"Ok? It is done"

The Mongol hordes sweep through Poland, ransack the country, then go back the way they came.

"I am ready for my second wish. I want the Mongols to invade Poland again!"

"Are you sure? I can give you anything your heart wishes."

"Yes. I am sure"

The Mongols come again, do some more pillaging, and return home.

"And now for my third wish. I want the Mongol hordes to invade Poland a third time."

"Are you really sure?"

"Yes."

"Okay. Before I grant you your wish, would you mind explaining me why you would want that not once but thrice?"

"It's very simple: Whenever the Mongols come to Poland they have to cross Russia twice!"

Its funny but yes we want a functioning Democracy to defend other democracies.

This would be much more concerning if they hadn't so thoroughly stamped out fascism. What's the alternative for Germany?

Tbf Poland would be joining them this time around.

Ukrainians: "the Germans are here to liberate us from the Russian yoke. And they actually mean it this time!"

Poland has been pouring everything into their military, they are VERY ready for this to all go sideways. I can't blame them.

I am ok if Europe wants to send troops to Canada to defend against the real enemy—the United States.

I know its a joke but just to note: I'd love to see Germany "march through Poland" given the poor state of Germany's armed forces. As it is rn, Poland alone could most likely reach Russia's heart in a couple of weeks of conventional warfare and debilitate Russian critical infrastructure long before that. Barring nukes of course, which is basically all the Kremlin would have to hang on to in a full out direct confrontation given just how incompetent their armed forces have proven to be.

It kind of reminds me of Terminator 2; where its essentially the exact same story is T1 except this time the previous bad guy is the good guy.

Germany starts world war 3

The rest of the world: “how do we keep falling for this?”

Poland: "What about attacking Russia alongside with an ally?"

I can understand your hesitancy, but the position of “Threat to Global Peace and the World Order” has already been taken. We do have an opening for “Bastion of the Free World” and we encourage you to apply. All things considered, you would be a great fit for the role.

Let's make sure to start the campaign in autumn so we are deep inside Russia during the coldest parts of winter. Let's also make sure to only take light summer clothing.

You guys have the most experience with that sort of thing

It might work this time!

• Captain hammer. Also Dr. Horrible.

Alternative you could go by boat, but I'd advice is to travel by land because I expect Poland will join you. (or it's just I'm hoping they will)
