www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Witold_PileckiWitold Pilecki (13 May 1901 – 25 May 1948; Polish pronunciation: [ˈvitɔlt piˈlɛt͡skʲi]; codenames Roman Jezierski, Tomasz Serafiński, Druh, Witold) was a Polish soldier, a rittmeister of the Polish Cavalry during the Second Polish Republic, the founder of the Secret Polish Army (Tajna Armia Polska) resistance group in German-occupied Poland in November 1939, and a member of the underground Home Army (Armia Krajowa), which was formed in February 1942. He was the author of Witold's Report, the first comprehensive Allied intelligence report on Auschwitz concentration camp and the Holocaust. He was Roman Catholic.[1]
During World War II, he volunteered for a Polish resistance operation to get imprisoned in the Auschwitz death camp in order to gather intelligence and escape. While in the camp, Pilecki organized a resistance movement and as early as 1941, informed the Western Allies of Nazi Germany's Auschwitz atrocities. He escaped from the camp in 1943 after nearly two and a half years of imprisonment. Pilecki took part in the Warsaw Uprising[2] in August 1944.[3] He remained loyal to the London-based Polish government-in-exile after the Soviet-backed communist takeover of Poland and was arrested in 1947 by the Stalinist secret police (Urząd Bezpieczeństwa) on charges of working for "foreign imperialism", thought to be a euphemism for MI6.[4] He was executed after a show trial in 1948. Until 1989, information about his exploits and fate was suppressed by the Polish communist regime.[4][5]
As a result of his efforts, he is considered as "one of the greatest wartime heroes".[3][6][7] In the foreword to the book The Auschwitz Volunteer: Beyond Bravery[8] Michael Schudrich, the Chief Rabbi of Poland, wrote as follows: "When God created the human being, God had in mind that we should all be like Captain Witold Pilecki, of blessed memory."[1] In the introduction to that book Norman Davies, a British historian, wrote: "If there was an Allied hero who deserved to be remembered and celebrated, this was a person with few peers."[1] At the commemoration event of International Holocaust Remembrance Day held in the US Holocaust Memorial Museum on 27 January 2013 Ryszard Schnepf, the Polish Ambassador to the US, described Pilecki as a "diamond among Poland's heroes" and "the highest example of Polish patriotism".[7][9]

I think we all hope that the guy who made the Taco's in the Trump grill is a Chinese chef who has stolen the recipe and is now churning out the product at a faster rate than the Hispanics can manage.Originally posted by Elshambles View Post
I am surprised that you guys are arguing over who is the nicest to immigrants and non white US citiizens. Both will be pretty shitty to them so it depends on if you would prefer that the predictability of Hillary slowly beading the system to Donalds any day could be the day he slashes an artery but he might decide to go the other way instead.
Also what I think we miss over here is that Donald does say he hates illegals not legal immigrants. Legal Hispanics are actually very anti illegal immigration and whilst the illegals may protest and march they cannot actually vote so count for little else than PR.
It is a strange election but I do find the idea that Hillary will be throwing the doors open to welcome the poor and needy of all nations to jump on welfare and Obama care laughable, she will slam the door just as hard.Comment

It annoys the shit out out of me too. With a whole fish, you expects bones, so you're watching for them. But if you get a fillet, you expect a fillet, and you munch away unawares.

Was down around Liffey Street yesterday, haven't been there in about 5-6 weeks and only noticed that the Food Emporium is gone and it's now been replaced with a massive Dealz store
It's like reverse gentrification.

The food in the Epicurean was pretty awful imo. And I rarely pay more for food than places there charged.
There are solid reasons people didn't eat there often.Last edited by Lord Sir Banter; 07-11-16, 13:58.X can be anything, any number, that is what’s CRAZY about X.
