...military, diplomatic and economic price of any invasion-no matter how successfully executed -would be incalculable. Intensely nationalistic, the Poles have resisted foreign domination throughout their history, rising up against Tsarist rule in 1794 and 1830 and against the Nazis in 1944.

He has promised to set up a special committee to draft a new constitution. Clearly, however, the junta intends to finish its self-appointed task-administering strong military medicine-before handing over power to the politicians, even those of its own choosing.
