WHAT'S GOING ON IN POLAND? (UPDATE)
In our previous post on the "student protests" in various European countries ( link ) and reportedly beyond, we suggested that the catalyst for the unrest is the US midterm election next Tuesday. That all these genuine (and not so genuine) events are related and to some extent centrally instigated, should surprise no one at this point. Added to this are Friday's events in Poland, which are of another magnitude, but an unmistakable pointer to what this is all about. In one sense it's absolutely historic. But it is also one of those developments that will only be reviewed and analyzed overtly with hindsight, and then only by the party that won this "soft power" war.
