This I know qz. Hitler also did that hoping the Japanese would declare war on Russia in return. The Japanese strung Hitler along for years. They never had any intention of warring Russia. They got bloodied up before the war messing around with the Russians.
While I certainly feel bad for the crap Poland had to go thru I just don't see why ibu puts it on the US at all.
