Russia and Germany sign a non-aggression pact and Poland died. Seventy years ago, today.
Although you'll have to wait a couple weeks for the Russian stab in the back that finished off Poland.
If you wonder why the Poles want American missile defense to solidify our protection, this anniversary might offer a clue.
Russia's invasion of Georgia last year was a reminder of events 70 years ago. As I've mentioned, Putin's Russia gives me an eerie inter-war feeling.
