most people think opening a jar requires installing JRE. but this is actually false, as jars are simply zip files in disguise, so you can open them using a file archiver of your choice, such as 7zip or winrar

On the topic of Cowbee's summary, one of the articles linked there is by this person. The article concerns the question of whether Poland was invaded by the soviets in 1939 link. I was curious about the author's argument, so I read it.

As it turns out, the crux of the author's argument was that the Polish government exiled itself to Romania on September 17th, and so the soviets could occupy eastern Poland because Poland technically had no government at the time. After all, it couldn't do anything from Romania, as it was a neutral country. EXCEPT the Polish government went to Romania AFTER the soviets invaded, and it was IN REACTION to the soviet invasion. So, because the author got the chronological order of events wrong, his argument kinda falls apart.

I don't want to suggest that the author doesn't know history, but I strongly suspect that he argues in bad faith by intentionally manipulating facts and omitting important information. I don't think you should treat this author as an authority on the topic, especially since this isn't his only outstanding claim that has been questioned by people versed in the field of Eastern European history. Among other things, he's also a Holodomor denier.
