A tiny part of me hopes Article 5 happens so I can see the Poles unleash decades of anger decades the Russians.

One of my favorite stories of Polish badassery, as told by one of my favorite YouTubers

Wasn’t Poland at the time helping the Nazis, when they annexed Czechoslovakia in 1938?
They probably mistook that the Nazis would have left them alone, while they themselves had no issue with invading Czechoslovakia.

Turns out, leopards eating people’s faces are not a modern phenomenom.
I don’t really think, what Hitler and Stalin did to Poland can be considered as “snuggles”.
This explains much of the Polish “god fucking dammit not again” mentality ._.
This is, really, any choice terrain occupied by a regional people that is equally coveted by nearby empires. Another example is Korea, wanted by China, Russia and Japan so much you could make an epic RTS game out of the fighting going on there. It also features its own legends, like Queen Min who refused to stay in her place as a woman, ran a spy network that saw the industrialization of Japan (and the imminent threat that posed), and she was ultimately assassinated by a platoon of literal ninjas.
Poland has its own legends, including obtaining the Enigma machine and making sure the allies all had one and the current protocol two weeks before the Germans invaded.
I like the Polish Home Army version of the Molotov Cocktail which added sulfuric acid and a sugar–potassium-nitrate saturated (dry) rag, that didn’t need to be pre-ignited, but would self ignite when the bottled fluid mixed with the rag.

Literally happening again no hyperbole with:
USA - Europe, Canada, Ukraine, The Periodic Table, Freedom - Russia.

I hadn’t heard about the periodic table thing, or are you just using it as a catch-all for science in general?
