Yes, the previous time they were getting ready it was because those pesky Poles being an inch away from invading the Third Reich.

I thought it was those pesky Poles refusing to provide a German land corridor to enable intra-territorial transit between Germany and Germany’s exclave East Prussia. That and ethnic Germans allegedly being harassed in Poland.

First one is definitely true and isn’t emphasized much and tbh I feel like that demand wasn’t unreasonable. Shipping people and things and providing defense would be a lot harder to an exclave than to contiguous territory. They did seriously overreact by invading, of course, and it seems like Mr H had some serious temperamental issues.

Second one I’ve never researched enough to know if it’s true or German propaganda.

I don’t recall the Germans ever claiming that Poland was about to invade them? Maybe I missed it.

Are you implying that this is Germany getting ready to invade Poland?
reply
I’m implying they aren’t getting ready because they think Russians are going to march on Berlin.

Russians are expanding and meddling in EU countries. Those are facts.

Russians talk about further expansion too.

They're getting ready to ensure the Russians aren't.
