In Germany, the fall of the Berlin Wall was called "a symbol of the humiliation of the Russians"

October 6 2019 37

Active Russophobes, firmly entrenched in the German television channel Das Erste ("First"), gave their next "work" uphill. The channel’s material says that initially the Russians rejoiced in the unification of Germany, but after a while, having felt the consequences of this, they “sobered up”. The channel claims that now for them (Russians), the Berlin Wall is a reminder of its former strength, and its fall is a symbol of defeat.

For clarity, it should be noted that the owner of the Das Erste TV channel is ARD (Arbeitsgemeinschaft der öffentlich-rechtlichen Rundfunkanstalten der Bundesrepublik Deutschland, “Working Party of Public Law Broadcasting Stations of the Federal Republic of Germany”) - an association of German regional public broadcasters. There are many of them, but each of them has real owners. This is a kind of circle of Russophobia.

After all, they accused Russia of “aggression” in 2008, while covering the armed conflict in South Ossetia, in 2010 blamed the Russian air traffic controllers for the crash of the Polish Tu-154 airliner near Smolensk, and welcomed Euromaidan to Ukraine in the winter of 2013-2014. Moreover, in Germany itself, the attitude to the “product” of this gigantic media holding, waging an information war against Russia, is very cautious, since the “public figures” regularly give distorted information, frankly inciting hatred between peoples. Therefore, the next "run over" to Russia is not surprising.

The authors specify that many Russians "perceived the collapse of the USSR not as a" triumph of democracy ", but as humiliation." And indeed it is. However, why the authors believe that “the Russians considered the Berlin Wall as a bastion from the United States and NATO” is not entirely clear.

For some reason, it seems to us that the bastion from NATO was the Group of Soviet Forces in Germany (GSVG) - the world's largest operational and strategic association of armed forces abroad, and not the Berlin Wall. But Russophobes argue that the fall of the Berlin Wall "was for many a proof that the Soviets lost the Cold War."

The authors also recalled the negative attitude of Russians towards the nomenclature of the late USSR. This is an old trick when well-known facts that are not directly related to a particular issue are presented as evidence of conclusions that are necessary for themselves.

It should be recalled that in 2016, Russian President Vladimir Putin said that the fall of the Berlin Wall did not unite Europe, but only moved the line of division deeper into the east of the continent.

Isn't this a humiliation of our country, when the 2 million group of our troops of the GSVG and WGV, which stood as an outpost between the USSR and the West hostile to us, was suddenly expelled from its habitable garrisons, airfields and ports, into the cold Russian steppes? When, for some Western US promises, we gave them East Germany for nothing, left the countries of the former Warsaw Pact, thereby allowing Washington to create regimes there that hated us fiercely, and hated for the fact that the USSR utterly defeated the fascist Germany, and those who took an active part in this war against us .... Still, we see how the history of WWII is being rewritten there. And now for them Hitler is a friend, comrade and brother, and we are enemies and invaders, and since the collapse of the USSR, almost XNUMX generations have grown up in the West, piously believing in such an alignment of pseudo-historians of the Vyatrovich ... And I have a question for everyone , guys - will our power "merge" Donbass, our Russian people are dying in the same place, protecting us from the rabid Ukrainian Nazis, or will we be together again, as before, and this will only become even stronger.

  We must remind the comrade that there was no liberation of the countries of Europe, but there was a new occupation, now Soviet, and as we now know, it was not much different from the German one! Countries and peoples have learned what the "Russian Reich" is and all the delights of the Soviet regime. There is no need to list how much the USSR invested and so on, it remained an occupier, and when the time came, everyone said - go home, free our land from your "unobtrusive friendship"! It should be recalled that the former owls. republics "waved their hand", only Belarus lingered. For the exit, Ukraine received the seizure of territories and a war to boot. The question is, if the USSR was so good, then why did everything captured earlier jumped from the Russian to the German camp?

      This is how it is in life, it is better to live in close friendship with the United States than "unobtrusive" friendship in Russian! The latest history has proved that I am right, there is not a single real friend or ally around the Russian Federation, Belarus - and that at the exit, Kazakhstan is getting rid of the Cyrillic alphabet - this suggests that they do not care about your barnyard, they will no longer stand in your stall!

        The original Russian lands are Moscow and within a radius of 300-400 km and .. and everything else is stolen from the indigenous peoples. Their list is clear - from Tatars, Chuvashs, Finno-Ugric peoples in the North and further to the East, it's not yours!
        Communists theorists said better on this subject: for example, Friedrich Engels:
        
        As for Russia, it can be mentioned only as the owner of an enormous amount of stolen property, which she will have to give back on the day of reckoning.
        
        German philosopher Karl Marx:
        
        Russia, which has nothing to do with Russia and got, or rather stole, its current name in the best case in the 18th century, nevertheless, brazenly claims the historical heritage of Russia, created eight hundred years earlier. However, Moscow history is the history of the Horde, sewn to the history of Russia with white thread and completely falsified.

        In July 2019, Russia continued to reduce investments in bonds of the US government - up to $ 8,501 billion (from $ 10,848 billion in June). This is stated in the materials of the American Ministry of Finance, which he traditionally publishes in a month and a half.
        Back in May 2018 - after the April sanctions - Russia dropped out of the list of the 30 largest holders of US state bonds and since then has been heading to reduce investment in them.

        Calculate how much has already been invested, plus various exports of various raw materials and products for 25 years, including dumping and dumping prices, or forged documents. In general, the Americans have not yet incurred losses from this position; rather, they are writing off lost profits.

        She handed her over, with all the allies and satellites in addition and absolutely without loss from the opposite side - for free. More precisely, these, to put it mildly, grief reformers paid for everything with the people's good ... and continue to pay.
        In Russia, the so-called "retreat" will take more than a dozen years, on condition that after Putin comes to power not "progressive" Gorby 2.0 or some power-hungry alcoholic and tyrant on the populist wave.
        This is taking into account the fact that after the RSFSR, the new Russian capitalists got the tremendous potential of real and promising developments, as well as a storehouse of unbroken resources and minerals.
        In the meantime, nothing else remains, as having depicted a smart mine, to pretend that everything is going according to plan and invest, invest, invest. Not only in the financial, but also in the raw material, and in the humane-intellectual resource of the winning partners.

    But because something has been forgotten. It is very characteristic that the word "captured" is used by you here in the neuter genus - a Freudian slip of the tongue, so to speak - IT. Well, nothing, HIM will be reminded again as the time comes. And, most likely, the Germans themselves. They can do it. And they well know HOW to handle all THIS. Only I, in the place of Russia, would not be in a hurry to release them this time ...

  I witnessed the retreat of the SA from Germany. There was an airfield with MiG-29 in Wittstock, but I only saw flyers on the MiG-29. Was in Wünsdorf near Potsdam. The view of the abandoned barracks and headquarters was, as after Mamaia, even the windows and doors were carried out, the rout was complete! I was near Magdeburg, a tank division was withdrawn from there ... A separate topic was the export of weapons and ammunition, one part was withdrawn to Russia, but there were other directions - Bulgaria and Angola, which later became a gold reserve for degenerals, palaces in the Moscow Region weapons and ammunition stolen and sold to savages. I will not reveal a secret, all over the world all wars are waged by Soviet weapons! Nobody is fighting with weapons of the USA or England, for example, here’s the answer to the question why we lived badly and live ?!
  A separate topic is the landing of some military units in the open field, these questions are for the Russian leadership, the Germans built garrisons according to the number of people evacuated from Germany, both housing for officers and barracks ... whom they settled there is a question for Pasha-Mercedes , Matvey Burlakov, look how they live.

        According to Rubin, one of the reasons for the failure of the American Patriot systems in Saudi Arabia was that the sensors of the complexes tracked only over-the-horizon targets, while not paying attention to low-flying ones. The second reason was the large area of the country, which greatly complicated the protection of airspace.
        At the same time, the ex-director of the Israel Missile Defense Organization noted that the Russian Pantsir-S1 anti-aircraft missile-gun complex (ZRPK) would be suitable to protect Saudi oil enterprises from low-flying and small-sized targets.
