For someone who wants to stop bringing it up, you sure do keep bringing it up.
I'm not bringing up the old massacres, I'm bringing up the fact that Ukrainian Nationalists are threatening Poland right now, despite we're helping them.
We've been over the fact that there's a small portion of the current militia in Ukraine that's particularly right-wing nuts.

I wonder what they're using as a claim that whatever part of Poland is actually Ukranian? Something over a thousand years ago when the Rus empire as around?

I mean, almost every square kilometer of Europe has been fought over or disputed over at some point since the Roman Empires collapse. Well, not ALMOST EVERY square kilometer, point is that most of Europe (including the western parts of Russia) has territory that has been fought over at some point.

Weeell, I gotta say. Kot is onto something here. For one, we've got this Lwow cafe here in Krakow, and that's as good an indication of territorial claims as any. Also, the cute Ukrainian bartender's accent is threatening to kill me.
I'd go get my gun, but we ain't got no NRA here.

More or less yes. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kingdom_of_Galicia–Volhynia

Of course it is "good old days and part of history we should remember" not "lets go and conquer formerly Ukrainian Peremyshl" not counting few dozens (maybe hundreds) of morons.

Wow.
Apparently, Ukrainian nationalists declared that after they finish with Russia, they intend to "reclaim" parts of Poland. Of course, they did that (declaring) even before, and it's just words, but it gets pretty... uneasy, considering those right-wing guys stopped being a bunch of skinheads and started to be an full-on militia, sitting on a pile of guns, and they're less than a hour drive from the border (I'm trying to find the actual source, they apparently said it to camera of one of biggest Polish televisions, but that would proably be Soviet propaganda anyway).

I find this post particularly hilarious as only four hours earlier you posted this:
 
Also, funny you mention that, there was quite a lot of voices after the Russians "freed" the Crimea and such that Poland should go and "liberate" (since before the whole Ukrainian nationalism thing happened it was almost 100% Polish, and we consider losing it one of worst loss of Poland during creation of new borders) Lwów

the united kingdom was settled by malvinian aborigan tribes in 31488 bc and therefore londonian island malvinians should return themselves into the fold

Waaaaaaaait a second... since when you are in Krakow?

See, those are only representative of the group as a whole if they are doing it. If it's us doing that, it's a vocal minority.

We are doomed. It's just that whatever is going to kill us all just happens to be, from a scientific standpoint, pretty frickin' awesome.

It would be funny if they blew up the parliament on November 5th.

You know, funny in a horribly, world-shatteringly terrifying way.
