Polish national stadium with the name of a hero?

An important and late gesture towards a symbol for the struggle against communism, according to government ministers and politicians, will be made. It is finally a good sign that all politicians in Poland unanimously agree that either the Polish National Stadium or a main street leading to it, will be named after Ryszard Siwiec.

Ryszard Siwiec committed suicide by burning himself, not trying to injure other innocent poeple, in the stands of the Stadion Dzisięciolecia (10th-Anniversary Stadium). It all happened during a yearly harvest festival on the 8th of September 1968 where high profile Communist minsters were present, as a protest for the Soviet-led invasion of Prague, the Czechslovakian capital on the 5th of January 1968, by tanks from countries in the Warsaw Pact.

Communist Poland also joined this horrific and very inhumane action to repress the street riots and uprising in Prague, also known as the “Prague Spring”.

This sad event took place to keep and secure a horrific and cruel Communist system in place. Many hundred people lost their lives during that inhumane invasion.

Heroic intellectual

Siwiec, was a philosopher, former Polish Underground Homy Army soldier (AK), who took part in the fight for an independent Poland from the occupying Nazis and later from the Communists.

He was a husband and father of five, but saw his life as a duty to fight for a free Poland and the inhumane totalitarian Communist oppression in Eastern Europe.

He knew that fighting for a free and independent Eastern Europe was his duty, as a honourable person who risked his life on many occasions before. His suicide in the name of freedom was never reported and people were forced to keep quet over this incident.

Dedication for Poland’s best manager?

This stadium is now taken apart, due to the construction of the new Polish National Stadium for the EURO2012 taking place in Poland and Ukraine. Mirosław Drzewiecki, currently Minister for Sport and Tourism in Poland, is looking at all options even seeling the name for commercial purposes to a sponsor.

Another very popular option is to name the stadium after the most successful Polish National coach Kazimierz Górski, who led the Polish National Team to the most successful era in its history. Poland was then seen as one of the three best teams in the world, beating football powers with ease.

His biggest success was probably the 3rd place at a World Cup. A team that knocked out England from participating in the upcoming World Cup in Germany, Yugoslavia, Sweden and Italy, during the 1974 World Cup in Germany, only to lose the semi-final to the host in a very controversial way.

But also winning the Gold medal with his team at the 1972 Olympic Games in Munich, but also wan the Silver medal at the 1976 Olympic Games in Montreal.

It would be very important to show the appreciation to both heroes, who made us proud to be Polish.

A dangerous result

Results from the Venezuelan referendum worry on what is coming up next in international affairs. It is a possible defeat for future democracy and freedom, but I am not surprised that people who voted for Mr. Chavez are very short sighted and narrow minded, as a result of the ongoing leftist propaganda and brainwashing of society.

It is the will of the people in Venezuela, which accepted the amendments to the Constitution. Fair enough. But do they really know what they got themselves into?

Experts say that Chavez deliberatly played on the poverty, criminality and everything that is bad in his country, to force through his ideas of a socialist/communist revolution.

Cruel system

I know, from my own experience, that Socialism in any of its forms is a cruel system. Did not history already show us what will happen? Socialism is just a cover word for dictatorship and Communism. It evolves very rapidly into Communism and repression.

Why go so much against peace in the world? I would not be too worried if he would use mild and peaceful verses in his speeches, but all his anger and hate against the West is just to worrying.

Socialism/Communism = Dictatorship, money on arms, ties with dictators

Chavez already showed with his arm deals, military co-exercises with Russia, strong ties with Cuba and Iran, that he is not going to stay away from any means in order to protect the revolution in his country, but also wants to secure a place as a world power for God knows which reason.

Why does not he use the money to modernise the country? I am quite sure that infrastructure, education, health system and other important civil projects need improvements.

Refusing free thoughts

He even rejected entry for the Nobel Peace Prize Winner and Former President of Poland Lech Wałęsa, the one who brought down Communism in Eastern Europe through famous strikes. He was invited by the democratic opposition in Venezuela for talks and to give lectures.

Why? Becuase Chavez knows that Lech Wałęsa would endanger his struggle for complete power and a socialist dictatorship with him at the helm for another century if you like. It is fair to argue that he might want to stay in power with force in a few years time. Relating to dirty practices and oppressing methods.

This is just the beginning of censorship and repressing of thoughts. Next up is foreign and oppositional media…

Did the people there really experience what it means not be free? You might get some benefits from it, but what if you are not able to go abroad, roam around freely and most importantly think freely?

Just a cover

Any benefits hat come from socialists are just cover on what goes on in the background, where normal citizens do not have the rights to look into and where equality does not apply.There are only equal rights for a special group at the head of the state, the rest has to adapt to everything they say.

I just want to tell the people of Venezuela that what they chose is not a good choice, it is not the future. We know from history what can happen in the name of Socialism.

Democracy and the freedom is in danger in this South American country.
