Should the Russian threat on Poland be taken seriously?

No it should not.

Russia said that Poland would become a target in the event of a nuclear war.
That's not a direct threat.

Re: Should the Russian threat on Poland be taken seriously?
But that's not exactly an encouraging statement either...
Really, who else except Russia, Iran, and maybe N Koreea, thinks of "the event of a nuclear war"?
I find that rather scary
Re: Should the Russian threat on Poland be taken seriously?
USA, eh?
Also, Russia "threatened" Poland only after Poland agreed to deploy american AAD systems on its territory.

Then please find me one statement made by a US official that, in recent times, threatens a nation with nuclear apocalypse.... they have the biggest and best equiped army on the planet, only the russians hide behind nuclear missiles (wich no sane leader would ever use) because their armed forces although impressive in numbers... they're just that... impressive in numbers. period
don't get me wrong I'm not an american, I live in eastern Europe... and I thank God that even if we were under a cruelcommunist regim for almost 50 years, at least our dictator did not bend over for the soviets ( he refused to help the soviets to invade Czecoslovakia... ) otherwise we would have the same problems as Ukraine, Georgia... and that is a massive russification of the native population that...as u can see...Putin takes full advantage off

USA Wants to exist, its a silly tendency among countries to protect themselves from other countries with nutjob leaders and nukes.Dude, true, every word...
If there is a 3rd world war, this time the USA will make it...USA wants to be the ONLY one who decides about anything that happens in the world...
Let's just hope they were fascist communist kittens who were on their way to international fascist communist fair.

Russia has always been like this, and untill someone kicks them really hard in their vodka-drunken balls, they'll continue to behave like this... Russians can only understand and respect action

Again, this is Russian reaction.
The common culture of a tribe is a sign of its inner cohesion. But tribes are vanishing from the modern world, as are all forms of traditional society. Customs, practices, festivals, rituals and beliefs have acquired a flut and half-hearted quality which reflects our nomadic and rootless existence, predicated as we are on the global air-waves.

The best way to do that being economic sanctions and overwhelmingly pwn them in their foreign ventures, covert or otherwise.
Make them non-players, prove to them they are no longer important.
The powers delegated by the proposed Constitution to the federal government are few and defined. Those which are to remain in the State governments are numerous and indefinite. The former will be exercised principally on external objects, as war, peace, negotiation, and foreign commerce; with which last the power of taxation will, for the most part, be connected. The powers reserved to the several States will extend to all the objects which, in the ordinary course of affairs, concern the lives, liberties, and properties of the people, and the internal order, improvement, and prosperity of the State. - James Madison

No. Nuclear war won't happen because the "winner" will have nothing left of his country. Everyone loses big time.

Russia is always huffing and puffing about Poland. Unfortunatly for Russia Poland is now in NATO and for all the big talk the Russians use they are very aware that they cant touch Poland as long as shes in NATO and the EUShould the Russian threat on Poland be taken seriously?

Indeed. And now the Russians say American nuke shield installations in Poland will become nuke targets in the event of war. So they'll need nuke shield installations to protect the nuke shield installations from nukes, etc etc. In short: another cold war and arms race to fight over the last oil in the future.
