Freedom was the point obviously. The effects of the uprising are one thing, but are you really saying you'd be alright sitting under german boot for 5 years, watching them execute thousands of citizens? Especially after only regaining their independence just 20 years earlier. I'm sure they've had enough, and even despite not having enough supplies just wanted to stand and fight. Regardless of the outcome, it was undeniably brave and deserving of respect.
Polan stronk
>what was the point
1. to quicky overwhelm the Germsn garrison and prevent the Germans from turning the city into Festung Warschau; not get HEEM SLEEPY'd like Leningrad, Stalingrad and Kiev
2. Hope the Germans abandon the city when the Russians pull up to the Vistula, the AK high command knew there was no chance of success if the Germans stood their ground
also, they were tired of being treated like shit for ~5 years
I bet you unironically think France contributed anything worthwhile to the Allied victory, Canada has more clout than you
>the desolate shithole that Poland still is today
France actively resisted Allied victory at basically every turn. The pathetic resistance they put up during the invasion, the refusal to sortie the French fleet to join the other allies (requiring the bombing of Mers El Kébir), active Vichy involvement in Operation Torch, downright enthusiastic implementation of the holocaust, the squabbles between the many many many factions of the """"""French Resistance"""""" (where factions would often fight one another just as seriously as they fought the nazis, Yugoslavian-style), as well as the reprehensible scapegoating of loose women as collaborators by people who where far greater collaborators than they could ever dream of being and all the bullshit "It was all because of ennui" excuses of faggots like Sarte.
France 1940 - 1945 is up there in the top 10 most shameful moments of human history.
>France 1940 - 1945 is up there in the top 10 most shameful moments of human history.
You had me up to this point. France during WW2 did pretty pathetically taking its supposed standing, but it's nowhere near the top 10 "most shameful moments in human history".
Its one of the top 10 most shameful moments because little over a century before it was THE big dick alpha dog of Europe
I TRIED SO HARD
Are you implying Vichy France and Free France were the same thing?
They would rather be a free man in their graves than living as a puppet or a slave like the French
France chose human life over nationalism and that's a shame? Pfft
This man is incapable of processing the difference between a nation and its people
nothing, just shit and giggles
more dead poles
Maybe part of it was so that when the Russians arrive, they could greet them as equals in control of their own capital and hence be in theory less likely to become victims of Bolshevik rule. Of course the Russians made it a point not to arrive, specifically for that reason.
Poland has lower homicide and crime rate than France, UK, Germany.
Quality of life is higher in Warsaw than in London or Paris.
They were terrorists.
The quality of life is so great that many poles move to germany

You're both retarded. They were waiting for Poles to bleed out and die, so they won't have to deal with the victorious resistance.
That's not up for debate, it's a historic fact. Whether you like it or not, you dumb fucking tankie scum.
>They were waiting for Poles to bleed out and die, so they won't have to deal with the victorious resistance.
True but Red Army was also after operation Barrington so their supply lines were stretch as fuck

>victorious resistance.
If Red Army stepped in, Warsaw Uprising would be a cakewalk. You're just a dumb fucking cunt.
Oh no, crossing a fucking river, would stretch their supplies to the limit.
They were ordered to let the Warsaw fall.
Yes, the nazis were terrorists

Nice reddit reaction gifs.
Just take a step back and read again, you mongoloid.
Red Army would have to pacify the resistance. How well do you think it would go in diplomacy?
>tfw you try to reach Warsaw from both North and South but fail and loose thousands of men due to the strong Hunnic defense and counterattacks, you send Berling´s troops over the river because AK autists werent competent enough to secure the bridges, they loose 5600 soldiers but neckbeards on Kampuchean fairy tale board will comply about you "ordering the Red army to stop at Warsaw" and "attacking just after the Uprising got defeated" even when Vistula–Oder Offensive started 2 and half months after the Uprising got defeated.

>people were more than happy to catch up jews for Gestapo. Their attitude didn't change much ever since.
Are you denying that communism was a disaster for Poland and other states that were under it?
It wasn't exhaust. Soviets already had the experience of being fucked up by AK, so they decided to not interfere - if polaks are so "independent" and "unccoperative", let them fight Nazis themselves, fail, and then capture the city themselves.
It was cruel, but polak hyenas had it coming. Shouldn't have left their positions so that Rokossovsky's guys get fucked by Nazis before. And yeah, the deliberate leaving of their positions is a fact.
>Oh no, crossing a fucking river, would stretch their supplies to the limit.
Last time they crossed the river AK pulled the "ok, you're on your own now" and left their positions, resulting in the soldiers getting decimated by krauts. Fuck off, you polak cunt, Soviets were not obliged to anything for you.
>Hurr, resistance strong, we will kick out krauts with one help and be the pain in the ass for soviets
>You, ruskie finno-ugro-mongolic bydlo, not worthy even a drop of blood from schlachta, smelly ruskie scum, HELP US! AND THEN FUCK OFF FROM OUR LAND, TAKE YOUR CORPSES AND PAY US MONIES! HELP, THE KRAUTS BULLY US ;-(

Nice argument, polak. Keep being buttblasted about the fact that nobody decided to bend over for your pathetic circus of a nation.
After all, having an enormous ego and being fucked over because of it is art of your national identity.
It was, first and foremost, a disaster for Russia, because Russians were forced to feed all those limithropes instead of bleeding them dry, like normal metropolies did with their colonies.
Not him, but:
>Poland suffered catastrophic damage to its infrastructure during the war, which caused it to lag even further behind the West in its industrial output.[11] The losses in national resources and infrastructure amounted to over 30% of the pre-war potential.[11] Poland's capital of Warsaw was among the most devastated cities – over 80 percent destroyed in the aftermath of the Warsaw Uprising of 1944.[12] Nonetheless, resulting from forced migration, there was a rapid increase in population to 23.9 million shown in the first post-war census of 14 February 1946.[13] The Polish state acquired more highly developed western territories and lost the more economically backward eastern regions. Already in 1948 the prewar level of industrial production was exceeded in global and per capita terms during the first Three-Year Plan (Plan Trzyletni) fueled by the collective desire to rebuild shattered lives.[14]
>After the Soviet annexation of the Kresy territories east of the Curzon line, about 2 million Poles were "repatriated" (moved or were transferred or expelled) from these areas into the new western and northern territories east of the Oder-Neisse line,[20][21]
> In 1947 Soviet pressure caused the Polish government to reject the American-sponsored Marshall Plan,[16] and to join the Soviet Union-dominated Comecon in 1949.[17] The Soviet forces present engaged in plunder of the former eastern territories of Germany which were being transferred to Poland, stripping it of valuable industrial equipment, infrastructure and factories and sending them to the Soviet Union.[18][19]

Who was leeching on who again? Is Ruskie education really so shit? I bet that you're taught in school that USSR wasn't even at war prior to Barbarossa.
>Who was leeching on who again
Poles on Krauts, afterwards Russians and after Cold War end - EU. Wait a bit and you will see polaks whining how EU "occupation" ruined them, now that EU demands taking of "refugees".
Also,
>American-sponsored Marshall Plan
Like I said, the worst crime for polak is denying his country even more gibs.

>Bad soviets, bad! Reeeeee!
I see nothing but being butthurt that poles were denied the gibs at the cost of bydlorussians.
I never mentioned exhaustion since as i understand, Glantz debunked it in some way in his book, but the fact that Red army tried to reach Warsaw from south and north stands. Plus fact that AK allowed Huns to destroy bridges over the Vistula so it wasnt possible to transport the tanks there is also relevant.
What I dont understand, why germany just didnt let them have the city?
They would save many of their soldiers, a few dozens of tanks, and guns, and then try to defend diffrent position.
Also germans would have cockblocked soviets out of Poland which would be nice
Because Germs enjoy suffering of the White people

The Germans actually intended to evacuate the population and dynamite the entire city before the Soviets got there, as the Germans intended on using the Poles as forced labor and military conscripts and wanted to purposely destroy their capital city.
Hitler had also ordered the destruction of Paris but the German general in charge, (can’t remember his name) left it standing.

Out of many absurd things the Nazis did, this wasn't absurd at all. The Soviets would've reformed and integrated most of the battleready and eager armed militias in Warsaw. There wasn't any problems with massive numbers of poles fighting under the Soviet Command.
Never in history, literally ever, Poland managed to do anything even remotely sensible in Foreign or internal politics. They are quite proficient and brave in wars, but, considering the former point, it only resulted in useless loss of life half of the time, and a literal gain of someone else.
>I bet you unironically think France contributed anything worthwhile to the Allied victory, Canada has more clout than you
Canada was easily a top 5 Allied power, that's not surprising at all.
So much this.
In the 1920's our politicians really believed that Poland is indeed stronk and thought they could bully our neighbours into submission and get away with it.
I don't know who was more delusional. Hitler in 1945 or Józef Beck in 1938.
Reading this thread just shows how many butthurt german rape babies are here.

Soviets were hostile towards Polish resistance from the beginning, because it represented original goverment-in-exile, while they created separate Polish communist goverment, which served them as a puppet. There were many cases of arrests and executions of partisans because of that. Resistance section in Warsaw was for Soviets another opposition to eliminate, instead of posssible volunteers.
You are literally just comparing resistance backed mostly by the soviets and one that was mostly backed by the allies.
Pro tip, Soviet Russia sucked ass and the entire reason all of eastern Europe is a mess is because Communism turned out to be a massive failure though it was still preferable to what the Germans had in store for Poland.
They were still seriously butthurt over 1919-22 war (especially Stalin) and both governments weren't interested in restoring good relationship.
Soviet backed partisans on Polish core lands were almost nonexistent. You need to go east (Belarus, Ukraine) to find them.
why everyone are so angry?
damn, didn;t mean to quote, i'm just too stupid
>massive economy collapse happens just after capitalism is estabilished
>must be fault of communism
There were what, 400000 strong Polish corps in the Soviet army? Why they'd have any difference in replacing rebellious organisations with the loyalists in Warsaw in particular? Especially considering that many in Warsaw uprising were the Jews - who would happily procure a very easy filtration process, ratting out dissidents, and loyal and capable leaders, just like they did in the lands reclaimed by the Soviet Union in initial partition.
Thing is, noone gave anything to France on a silver platter either. Charles De Gaulle wrestled French independence and pushed American influence out.
The worst thing about the Soviet Union was that it practised puppeting that was overly restrictive and economically depressing for its' vassals. America did a better job in Western Europe. They still fucked up in 9 out of 10 other places next. And success is always a self-made product anyway, merely slightly assisted by foreign good will.
>Soviet backed partisans on Polish core lands were almost nonexistent.
My uncle was one of them and knew Bierut personally.
He belonged to this group
pl.wikipedia.org
I only learned about this when he died.
>Never in history, literally ever, Poland managed to do anything even remotely sensible in Foreign or internal politics.
We destroyed Germany in WW2 by dragging the whole world in conflict and effectively created a homogenic ethno-state.
These arguments would have more substance if the Soviets didn't actually call Poles to rise up in uprising in Warsaw a couple of days before it started.
>There were what, 400000 strong Polish corps in the Soviet army?
Yes, but it was loyal to Polish communist goverment, which was also hostile to independent Polish resistance groups. These soldiers often fought partisans of same fraction as in Warsaw in a long civil war.
en.wikipedia.org
>Why they'd have any difference in replacing rebellious organisations with the loyalists in Warsaw in particular?
Partisans were aware of Soviet actions in 1939 and in Katyn, so they wouldn't be happy to join Red Army. They were also informed of mass Soviet arrests of Polish partisans, such as happened after liberation of Vilnus.
>Especially considering that many in Warsaw uprising were the Jews
Jewish Combat Organisation wasn't very relevant in 1944. most of its members were executed or deported to death camps after the ghetto uprising a year earlier. Only a few survivors took part in the main uprising.
>Partisans were aware of Soviet actions in 1939 and in Katyn, so they wouldn't be happy to join Red Army.
Some AK members were happy to join Polish Communist forces. It's not widely talked about today in Poland as it would tarnish the image of AK, but there were even communist prosecutors who served in AK during the war.
There are always exceptions, but these weren't large numbers. The resistance communities as a whole were still at war with communists.
>Polish communist goverment, which was also hostile to independent Polish resistance groups
>independent Polish resistance groups
beck had little choice. EIther do a stand or bend for Germans.
He could see how well it work for a Czechoslovakia.
If only Anglos not delay Polish mobilization and polish HQ was sure that Germans gonna full invade mode instead of just taking some border area and calling for peace.
It was large numbers.
Plenty of AK or AK affiliated units joined People Army either for safety from soviet persecution or to infiltrate and take from within.
Whole units 'switch'.
What so funny?
>long civil war
Let's not exaggerate. Those were small groups of partisans.
>Let's not exaggerate
The last important anti-communist partisan was killed in combat in 1963
>What so funny?
there were either Soviet-backed partisans or UK-backed partisans
>The last important anti-communist partisan was killed in combat in 1963
All "partisans" that existed after 1950 were just autists too afraid of getting captured so they stayed in the forests.
>UK-backed partisans

>the entire unit deserted and joined the Home Army

The important anti-communist partisans in Poland were less important than organised crime or maniacs. That's the point.
