"Gente" Magazine Cover.

Completly "Photoshopped". Shows a British Ship in Flames, and a Mirage III (?) flying over it.

Yellow title says "We are winning!" It was a lie, by that time, the British army had a strong army in the Falklands.

Also says : 6 Destroyed Ships, 16 Damaged, 21 Airplanes and 16 Helicopters shot down. We are destroying the British Navy.


Remember this one:

Just in case you or anyone else is interested, here are a few more reasons why the Scum is the lowest of the low, gutter press that isn't fit to wipe your rear end with http://www.redandwhitekop.com/forum/index.php?topic=23802.0
They always pretend to be popular among the forces and to be their voice, yet most self respecting people wouldn't look twice at it. Do other countries have to suffer this kind of sewer-journalism? :(

Officers of a Polish cavalry regiment during the Polish Soviet war, in 1920.  The polish cavalry would go on to win a smashing victory against the russian cossaks, in the last great cavalry battle in the world in the Battle of Komarów, in which the Polish lancers not only turned back, but destroyed the cossak army, despite being heavily outnumbered.

Way to go Poles and your funny square hats.
