That is nonsense you know - the Poles were simply outnumbered and they were poor enough that they couldn't afford to build the most advanced designs (they did have monoplane fighters and a quite advanced bomber - but could not have as many planes as a Germany grown fat from never paying for its WWI crimes and which was allowed to take over Czech industry - one of the largest in Europe).
And neither the French or British helped in Sept. 39 - and they helped a great deal w Enigma.
@Psylocibowy You know what, why don't the Polish start blaming who's really responsible; themselves?
All this "The allies didn't help when they should have" crap, where was the Polish military? Why was it so crap? An airforce of Biplane antiques, well played.
@CDStoner First we wasnt invaders, second you let such commie scums like Gemborski to be in charge in my country letting Poland to be under soviet influence, third harming civilians it wasnt any official order given by polish gov. in fact tradeing Poland in Yalta was official british, american, and soviet policy. Thank you.
@CDStoner it's disturbing that earlier in his career Irving was treated as a reliable source by many other historians (books on the RAF bombing offensive often cited Und Deutschlands Städte Sterben Nicht, for instance) before he was 'outed'. One wonders just how many of his lies became 'part of the literature' and so went unchallenged, even treated as 'common knowledge' in the field. History is a field particularly susceptible to such introns.
ps they do mention talk of a British conspiracy- looks like this theory originated by David Irving. Don't know if you have heard of him, but he is a British historian, a nazi sympathiser, and a holocaust denier, ie someone who spreads lies for his own agenda.

Hmm the order to make the German officer fill in the hole (7:24) is against the Geneva Convention.
