Margaret Brat: seen from the train window

1. With a taste bordering on the stalker lately, I have been very frequently travelling by train to Saw to make contact with the “city”. So, with noise, traffic, traffic lights...

When I come back, and this usually happens in the afternoon, students of the police and military schools there are getting into the wagon. Dressed in black, beautiful girls with braids and boys, fresh after mutation. They don't make noise, and sometimes they just exchange notes about the last test. Then they get off, 1 at a time, or in groups, on subsequent, most frequently agrarian stations.

Because that's where they came from and they were recruited. Posters, school visits, "open days"... etc. And they were persuaded, especially erstwhile there was no work around, and the wages in the police-military industry, as well as pensions after 15 years, were lured. In a year, or possibly they'll turn 18 this school period and nothing will stand in the way of sending them to war.

After all, Prime Minister Morawiecki of his children to Ukraine will not send anything else erstwhile it comes to a pimpleded boy from a multi-children household from village B., who is just sitting other and exploring the secrets of square binomial (tomorrow's test).

2. It is said that about 180 1000 people, soldiers and civilians have died on both sides of the conflict in the war between America and Russia (if you have more accurate data, delight correct it). If you divide by the days of war, 520 corpses come out a day.

It's 2 or 3 Herburn villages. all day.

3. The Polish mercenary's account, which immediately after the invasion of Ukraine by the Russian troops, was presented on the website of the Ukrainian embassy in Warsaw and from there – voluntarily – went to the war there, enrolling in the alleged abroad legion. As he claims, the main motive was to hatred the Russians.”

He earned small – 120 PLN per day training in barracks, 360 – per day spent on the front. ... and shortly there was this warrior – in 1 of the skirmishes he jumped out of the trench and threw a grenade (?) into an incoming enemy tank. Unfortunately, he missed, but the tanker spotted him, pointed the barrel of his deadly device at him and fired. But he besides missed, but the bullet fragments hit our gamegoer in the leg. The boy has no grudge against anyone because, he claims, according to the rules, he should hide again in the trench after throwing out the grenade. But he didn't due to the fact that he wanted to see... In this case we can talk about happiness, due to the fact that respective of his Polish colleagues returned in coffins.

In this account, I am puzzled by the motive – erstwhile and in what circumstances a 20-year-old boy had acquired specified an unmerciful “hate to the Russians” that he was ready to quit his young life in the name of this hatred.

I think it's TVP.

4. Tragic experiences from the past (the murdered Polish uprisings, September 17, Katyn, close to the semi-century occupation...) dictate to the nation, which in the finals of the struggles usually proved weaker, alert and cautious in making strategical decisions erstwhile it comes to contacts with the "bear".

Reason must take precedence over emotion. Today's the opposite. And that's why I look with concern at the boy from village B. and the girl from village S., as they so black-dressed jump onto the platform plate from the steps of the train.

A test tomorrow.

And the day after tomorrow?
