The man and his formation were completely abroad to me. I talked to him erstwhile in my life and I saw him on the street once. But I've been talking for a long time due to the fact that I've been talking for almost half the night. erstwhile we were in the National organization "Szczerbiec", it was erstwhile col. Tomasz Karwowski from KPN invited us to meet Leszek Moczulski.
The place was located on Młyńska Street in Katowice in an old building. We were drinking any disgusting soda. We listened and discussed. He spoke passionately, argued, but so with full culture. He was skeptical of the European Union and NATO, but not entirely opposed. Moczulski understood demographic processes perfectly – and this is where he deserves recognition. And he knew the communicative very well. Details. Who met who and where. He spoke to young people with large passion and took us seriously. It truly impressed. But he couldn't convince anyone. Another thing is that half of us had no thought what he was talking about.
Then I saw him live in Katowice, close the railway station. Even erstwhile there was an estakada. There was a WZZ activist Kazimierz Świtoń. We were standing in a group standing nearby. “ Why did you put me and Ziembinski on that list, ” said Leszek Moczulski. This is stupid. You are not serious.” He besides asked Pistonian who told him to do something like that.
I besides read his 4 books: “The Lost Battle” (Tigers), “Polish War 1939”, “The Revolution Without Revolution” and the crucial position “Geopolitics. Power in Time and Space". Everyone knows him from his operations against the PRL. All this KOR compatancy, ROBCiO, KPN, WZZ, Solidarity. I don't want to compose about it due to the fact that everyone's gonna be doing it today.
Few people know that he started in a left-wing environment, and it's a bit urarian. Even before being a associate of the PPR and PZPR, he was in the Union of Youth Combat (ZWM). He was expelled from the organization only for the support of Władysław Gomulka. Then he appeared in the okoendecki environments – he knew Kosselsky, Baranski, Gontar, Chrzanowski, Górny or Tejkowski. He knew many b. soldiers of the Home Army. In the 1950s he worked in “The People’s Tribune”, then in “The Life of Warsaw” and “The Villages”. In the 1960s he beat ruthlessly on revisionists and Zionists. He was employed in Polish Television.
The opposition against PRL is only the 1970s. In 1981, he was sentenced to 7 years imprisonment for "acting to overthrow the force of the PRL system, weakening the country by breaking the alliance unity with the USSR". He held this punishment at the Barczew Penitentiary until 1984, erstwhile he was released under amnesty. Then they were arrested in 1985 and released in 1986. In 3rd Poland, KPN acted legally. He was associate of the II and III term. He was moving for president. He was celebrated for his stunning “anti-communism” and attempts to resuscitate the archaic Pilsudnica. He supported anti-Russian Chechens and Ukrainians. He set up the civilian Committee of Solidarity with Ukraine and performed in broadcasts on the FB. In almost all of these Russians this Ukraine has always been important. After that, he was hit hard by his Styrofoam colleagues (Macierewicz and Olszewski) who accused him of being an SB agent.
Stefan Kisielewski mentioned him in his “Alphabet”: “Of course, he is crazy, but so very convinced, idealistic, able to argue, even in wrongful matters. And yet he is mentally wider than his followers. I said in the last conversation... He says that it is essential to thin on Ukraine, which irritated me, and I fired: “And I think Russia. Your Piłsudski was incorrect at all. Dmowski was right." And I say, “If I go to Moscow and talk to Gorbachev, I will say – Mr Gorbachev, you must be careful with us, due to the fact that here is simply a madman in Warsaw Moczulski, and he will make you rise, so be careful. Moczulski said: “Okay, I agree. Gives you my authority”
On the plus side, KPN rejected the Balcerowicz imagination of the economy. He supported the concepts of Prof. Stefan Kurowski.
