  1. That's called "appeal to selected evidence."  That you single out 1933 suggests that your claim is not true for 1934, 1935, 1936, 1937, 1938 and 1939. That you point to "size" of the army, suggests your claim is not true for warships, war aircraft, tanks, etc, - the "strength" of Poland's military - for 1934, 1935, 1936, 1937, 1938, 1939, and even 1933.

  2. Why was Germany operating a radio station in Poland?

  3.  @Therworldtube   "Four days after the signing of the Polish-British Common Defence Pact, three destroyers of the Polish Navy executed the Peking Plan and so evacuated to Great Britain." "On 1 September 1939. At 04:45, the old German pre-dreadnought battleship Schleswig-Holstein opened fire on the Polish military transit depot at Westerplatte, in the Free City of Danzig" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Invasion_of_Poland#German_plan

  4.  @Therworldtube  Yes, you chose a date that suited your point - that's not a good thing. You also didn't say what you wanted us to glean from your comment - and that's also not a good thing: it's the logical fallacy of "failure to state".

  5.  @Therworldtube  I'm not arguing with you! I'm explaining to you that you are using poor evidence for your unstated argument.  You seem to be suggesting that Germany had cause to feel threatened by Poland's large Military. If that is your point, ffs say it! If that is not your point, then Idk wtf you're at.

  6.  @tyvamakes5226  You might make any number of similar observations; UK can beat Ireland, France can beat Belgium, ... it lacks a rhetorical point.

  7.  @tyvamakes5226  To quote myself "I'm explaining to you that you are using poor evidence for your unstated argument. " That is my point!

  9.  @tyvamakes5226  OMG, you're an imbecile! For onlookers, an argument consists of one or more premises and a conclusion that was logically drawn from them. OP has a premise - Poland's large army. He has no effing conclusion! Now FUCK OFF!

  10.  @theovonpapen2355  Oh look, another idiot. You're pretending to be reasonable, while actually throwing fuel on the fire. You're either a set of trolls, or one person with multiple accounts.

  11.  @jameslebro6598  Lol. You know fullcaps is not real shouting - it's just taken for it. Telling a person to calm down is not a way to make them calm down - it just throws more fuel on the fire.

  13. It's standard practice to consider various potential conflicts, to guide the estimation of the amount of military strength required to safeguard a nation.

  14. Given that the USA has had conflicts with Britain, Canada, Mexico and Japan, etc., it should have plans regarding future conflicts with those places.
