Wałęsa: “All clear...the elections were rigged!” Hundreds of people should be arrested!

Lech Walesa doesn't fail. As shortly as politics is made louder in Poland, the erstwhile leader of “Solidarity” grabs the telephone (or whatever he holds in his hands) and throws on the net further statements that combine the level of absurdity with the sense of mission.

This time, in his typical kind – without punctuation marks, with errors, code and stream of consciousness – Wałęsa demanded... arrest of Jarosław Kaczyński, Antoni Macerewicz and, of course, Sławomir Cenckiewicz. For 3 months. Preventive. due to the fact that the election, according to Wałęsa, was rigged. And if something was rigged, individual had to arrange it. And to train. Who's training? You know, Cenckiewicz. Who else?

In his Facebook entry today, Wales does not beat around the bush:

“It is clear to me that the elections were rigged!
The elections should be repeated erstwhile exchanging husbands of trust with trained soldiers.”

In this tragic theatre, an old subject appears again – the obsessive, almost paranoid hatred of Wałęsa to 1 man who did something that the erstwhile leader of “Solidarity” never forgave him. He showed the truth. And the fact hurts – especially erstwhile it concerns its own past.

The fact about "Bole" inactive hurts

Sławomir Cenckiewicz is simply a historian who published a loud book together with Piotr Gontarczyk in 2008 SB and Lech Walesa. origin for Biography. For any it was a long-awaited publication exposing lies of the 3rd Republic. For others – an assassination of a national hero. 1 thing is certain: from that minute on, Lech Wałęsa has fallen into a spiral of rage that he inactive can't stop.

Why Cenckiewicz? due to the fact that he's the 1 who ripped Wales out of the legend he's been carefully building for decades. He was the 1 who extracted papers about TW “Bolk” from the archives, reconstructed the mechanisms of cooperation with the safety Service and broke the silence agreement that had been in force around this case since the 1990s. For people like Wałęsa, the worst sin is not a lie—but a public catch on it.

Cenckiewicz, as a professional historian, did so with papers in his hand, not with innuendos. He presented folders, receipts, SB notes and evidence that a young electrician from Gdańsk signed as “Bolek”, worked with safety and reported on his colleagues. It wasn't a political assault. It was a fact-based analysis. And that's why it hurt the most.

When a legend breaks, it remains hysteria

Since then, Wałęsa has done everything possible to destruct Cenckiewicz. He tried to sue him, publically insulted him, challenged his competence, and even accused him of falsifying documents. The problem is that the courts consistently dismissed the claims of the erstwhile president. And public opinion – despite the outrage of any elites – increasingly acknowledged the right of historians.

Time worked for the truth. After uncovering Kiszczak's alleged folder in 2016, containing a self-handed commitment to cooperation signed by Wałęsa and respective twelve receipts of money, the remains of uncertainty dispelled. The IPN confirmed the authenticity of the documents. The graffiti experts were clear. Even those who defended Wałęsa from habit began to stay silent. And the hero himself? alternatively of withdrawing with dignity, he went on.

Arrest them all!

In the latest entry, Wałęsa raises the bar of absurdity even higher. He claims that the elections were rigged. He demands a re-vote, and guilty of “agreed mistakes” (read: Opposition men of trust) should be closed for 3 months.

As he writes:

“The men of trust, where akin mistakes have been made, must be held in custody for 3 months, explaining the agreed mistakes. It was an organized action!”

But it's only the beginning. There's no uncertainty who he thinks should go to jail first:

"Suspecting to prepare this fraud should be stopped for 3 months by Kaczyński, Cenckiewicz, Macierewicz. That is what I would have done if I had the opportunity.”

There's no evidence, no logic, no legal basis. There's only an old roller method: if it hurts, scream. And if there's no argument, throw names and hope individual gets scared. That's the Facebook version of the martial law. In this alternate reality of Wałęsa, everything is 1 simple narrative: if something is not in his mind, it is simply a conspiracy. And the conspiracy? This is known – he organizes PiS, with Macierewicz, who has contacts with the CIA, and Cenckiewicz, who has access to archives. The devil's trinity.

Except this hysterical accusation isn't about a real threat. It's about emotion. It's about the hatred that eats the Wałęsa from the inside due to the fact that he can't stand being taken distant from him by the function of a flawless icon. individual said publicly: “Yes, you did. Yeah, you took the money. Yes, you have."

Hero on his own terms

The problem is that Lech Walesa wanted to be a hero, but on his own terms. He wanted him to be worshipped for "Solidarity," but not to be buried in the 1970s. He wanted to be invited to global conferences, but no receipts were asked. He wanted to be valued for his function in the overthrow of communism, but it was not analysed why he was so fiercely defended by the Kiszczak people in 1990.

And it worked for years. The 3rd Polish Republic created a monument from Wałęsa – sometimes awkward, but inviolable. The media hoarded him, the politicians nursed him, and the opponents were afraid to contact the subject of “bolk” so as not to exposure themselves to a media lynching. Until Cenckiewicz came along. Not with a banner, but with documents. Not with emotions, but with facts.

That's why Wałęsa hates him. Therefore, all subsequent message by the erstwhile president is increasingly like a evidence of evidence before a medical committee alternatively than a serious political analysis. This entry shows a complete separation from the reality: threatening arrests, innuendos about conspirator training, suspicions of “organising fraud”. All this tells us more about the intellectual state of Wałęsa than about the political situation in Poland.

Actual Compromisation

What Wales is doing present is compromising not his opponents, but himself. alternatively of playing the function of state sage, he acts like a frustrated pensioner who cannot get over that the time of his glory has passed away. That past is not only mythology, but besides archives.

For people who believe in facts, Cenckiewicz is not an enemy – he is simply a chronicler. He reminded us that even heroes can have dark chapters in their biography. And that settlement with the past does not destruct the legend – it only clears it. Unfortunately, Walesa has chosen a way out. And more and more like his own caricature.
