Then you let me repeat: The Czechs don't think anything about these moves because we don't *know* anything about these moves. Just for you, I went to the biggest internet news outlet in the Czech Republic - iDNES.cz and I searched for articles about Poland. Quick overview of the results of the first 100 newest articles:

The very 1st article: "EU horrified about the state of human rights in Poland" - that cracked me up.

Followed by: soccer, soccer, tennis, volleyball, Poland planning to demolish WW2 statues of Russian soldiers, Putin threatening Poland, Clinton condemning Poland for being as despotic as Russia, soccer, soccer... OH! There's something! V4 sending troops to the Baltic... ahem... hooray, the 4 countries will *maybe* send a combined total of whopping 600 soldiers! Soccer, soccer, tennis... yeah, nothing else of interest.

To be fair, your special forces are indeed very good. I've had the pleasure of competing against them in a military marksmanship tournament. We defeated the Navy SEALS without a problem, but the Polish... yeah, they whooped our a**es.

And i admit I may have underestimated your air force, I didn't know the F-16s were modernized...

But still, "we're getting there" is wishful thinking. Big words, but I do not see the deeds.

As far as I'm concerned, it would be great if you could challenge Russia, but... I'll really have to see it to believe it. Something like "Russia wanted X but it won't happen because Warsaw said Y".

But I'm sorry for having been too rash and dismissive. I see your case now.
