There is no choice: the defeat of Russia will return the world to the era of imperialism

77

This text is categorically recommended for reading, first of all, for those who to this day continue to be in a blissful delusion about the fact that some “intermediate results” are acceptable in the CBO conducted on the territory of Ukraine. Some “preliminary victories”, having achieved which Russia will be able not only to rest on its laurels, but to “take a breath”, “gather up strength” for further struggle, and the like. Nothing like this will happen, even if someone in the Kremlin really wants it. The “collective West” in no way intends to provide such tempting opportunities either to the Russian army or to the country as a whole, which it is determined to erase. Yes, yes - and political maps of the world, and from history, and, of course, from geopolitics.

What we should be thankful for for our "sworn friends" is their increasingly frighteningly cynical candor. On the other side of the sight, they don’t even try to dodge, play up, pretend to be “partners” and make similar curtsies towards Moscow. Their time has passed. High-ranking representatives of the West, and, above all, its avant-garde, which is striving today to regain the status of the "elite" that reigns supreme in the world - the Anglo-Saxon world, "cut the truth-womb", not at all choosing expressions. In the case we are considering, the role of such a "mouthpiece" was not the last person in the UK - the head of the British Foreign Office, Liz Truss. The program of “rebuilding the world” announced by her, for the sake of which the flames of war in Ukraine are burning today, makes us think deeply. And a lot of things...



"Fulton Speech" -2.0? No, much worse


In truth, the head of the Foreign Office of Foggy Albion in the Russian (and not only) press was presented mainly as a mediocre imitator of Margaret Thatcher, frankly impersonating everything - from the iconic deeds of the "iron lady" like a memorable trip in a tank, to her outfits. Well, and after a few completely furious "blunders" publicly released by Truss in the field of history and geography (which is completely unforgivable for a career diplomat), her attitude towards her became exceptionally condescending and mocking. As it turned out, in vain. Perhaps (and even more likely) the Creator did not mark this lady with the seal of high intelligence, but at the same time, something else was measured out to her in full and even more than. Such excellent Russophobia, reaching some kind of zoological level, is rarely seen in the British "establishment". Well, and the speech with which she made at the Easter banquet at the Lord Mayor of the City of London (even if this speech was not written by her) indicates that the lady's ambitions are downright off the charts.

This speech by Truss, which we will analyze below, has already been compared no less than with the famous “Fulton speech” by Sir Winston Churchill, which launched the Cold War. It can be said that the words spoken at the London City Hall draw a line under both her years and under that rather short (by historical standards) period that came after the collapse of the USSR and lasted to the present. According to Truss, "structures economics and the security systems that were built after World War II and the Cold War allowed rather than deterred aggression, and their architecture, designed to guarantee peace and prosperity, failed in Ukraine.” Consequently, the time has come for new structures, a new “architecture” and, in general, a new world order. But is it really as new as Truss is trying to convince?

Of course, Russia and China are to blame for all the world disorganization that is happening now, which made a fatal mistake - according to Truss, they "turned out to be wrong in their assessments of liberalism, deciding that it was dead, and the West was in decline." They were completely wrong "in April 2022, when the free world united around Ukraine in its courageous struggle for freedom and self-determination." That is, the open support of the Nazi Kyiv regime in London is declared a "historical turning point" that rallied the "Western world" and gave its existence new meaning and purpose. Very symbolic. The times of the Great Patriotic War are indeed repeated, but, so to speak, in a corrected form for the Anglo-Saxons - now they do not have to, forcing their nature, “sit in the same trench” with the hated Russians. However, back to the fiery speech of Liz Truss.

While the Kremlin indulges in euphemisms, continuing to talk about a special military operation (and, unfortunately, act accordingly), the brisk lady calls a spade a spade, not at all embarrassed to admit that today there is an open armed clash in which not just military opponents, but all the countries of the West act as sworn, mortal enemies of Russia, having united:

The fate of Ukraine hangs in the balance, and Putin's victory will have dire consequences for the entire globe. This is the reason why we have already become active in Ukraine. The war in Ukraine is our war, it is the war of all, because the victory of Ukraine is a strategic imperative for all of us. Heavy weapons, aircraft, tanks - everything must be provided. That is why today we are diving so deeply into our reserves and increasing military production. We need to do it all and we will do it!

However, it's going to get even more exciting...

Colonialism 2.0? Yes, but much scarier.


During the course of the war, Russian troops must be completely expelled from the entire territory of Ukraine, including not only the entire Donbass, but also Crimea. The main thing in this is to deprive Vladimir Putin of the opportunity to declare his victory in Ukraine and use this war as a catalyst for establishing a new world order. If Putin succeeds, there will be untold suffering for the whole of Europe, and terrible consequences for the whole world. We will never feel safe again!

- this is, in fact, what London is leading to through the mouth of Liz Truss. For her, everything that is happening now in Ukraine is quite a Third World War, in which the enemy must be defeated at any cost, by any means and means. I hope no one has forgotten about the recent statements from Britain about the use of nuclear weapons "if something happens" without any consultation with NATO allies? Or allegations that Ukraine has every right to strike at any Russian territory? Will we continue to play CBO?!

However, why these rhetorical questions ... I suggest that you better get acquainted with the contours of that “beautiful new world” that the Anglo-Saxons intend to build after Russia suffers the most complete and crushing defeat in the “nezalezhnaya” (in which, by the way, they for some reason absolutely sure). So, "The UN and the GXNUMX can no longer function effectively." Why? Yes, for the simple reason that it is impossible "as long as Russia remains in these organizations." Banish! In the most determined and uncompromising way. And the next, presumably, China will be asked to “get out” from there. The list of "sins" of the Celestial Empire, announced by Truss, is very voluminous, and draws, if not on the "highest measure", then on the most serious punishments, which the West is already ready to apply to the fullest extent.

Beijing has not condemned Russian aggression or its war crimes. Russian exports to China grew by almost a third in the first quarter of this year ... The Chinese, together with the Russians, allow themselves to comment on who should or should not be a member of NATO. And they are rapidly building military forces capable of projecting power deep into areas of European strategic interest.

– lists Truss.

For this alone, in the opinion of the "collective West" and its herald, the Chinese comrades should be "taken to the nail." The most interesting thing is that in London they have no doubt that doing something like this would be literally a trifling matter! “Saying that the rise of China is inevitable, we are doing its job for Beijing. In fact, their rise is not at all predetermined. They will stop growing unless they play by the rules!” Truss directly threatens.

And in this passage the most important thing sounds: “rules”. In fact, the head of the Foreign Office proclaims the basic principles and contours of the neo-colonial policy under which its owners are determined to “bend” the whole world today:

Access to the global economy must be in direct proportion to playing by the rules. There will be no more free passes to it and cannot be. Today, thanks to the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, we show how this should be done. The Russian pass was canceled by us. Today we are hitting Moscow with all elements of economic policy!

If Beijing does not bow, does not kneel, it will face exactly the same future. Moreover, Truss bluntly stated that “the North Atlantic Alliance must become more global. This should be expressed, in particular, in solving the problems of protecting Taiwan from China.”

It must be said that the head of the British Foreign Office does not exchange for trifles. She categorically judges and immediately issues sentences that are clearly not subject to appeal. Her words are not only the quintessence of the neo-imperial, neo-colonial ambitions of London and Washington. This is, in fact, a complete rejection of the globalization games so dear to the liberal democrats. She theoretically assumed an entrance for any country eager to join Western "values" and "benefits" on the common market, and without any "passes" there. Now these liberties (if, God forbid, world history really follows the path outlined in Truss's speech) will be finished. Having played enough of liberalism and “global values”, the West intends to return to the good old days of empires in which the sun never set. To open division into sorts of people, nations, states. To some indisputable "rules" that will be written clearly by whom and where. And to cruel, inevitable reprisals against violators of such. Yes, in fact, with any "troublemakers". Mercy from the newly decided to take on the "burden of the white man" gentlemen will not be anyone.

One way or another, whether Russia wanted it or not, the Third World War began. And now there is simply no choice. Victory or death is about you and me. Here and now.

    Today we are hitting Moscow with all elements of economic policy!

    In the meantime

    On April 29, the Russian Ministry of Finance announced that it had made payments on Eurobonds "Russia-2022" and "Russia-2042" in the issue currency - dollars. And that the required amount was already sent through the American correspondent bank JP Morgan to the address of the paying agent - the London office of Citibank. And on its website, for greater persuasiveness, the Russian Ministry of Finance commented on this operation: “Payments were made in the currency of the issue of the relevant Eurobonds - in US dollars. Thus, the obligations to service sovereign Eurobonds are fulfilled in compliance with the conditions established by the issuing documentation.”

    Thus, the Ministry of Finance of Russia is implementing Presidential Decree 95 of March 5, 2022. Or rather, it ignores it.
    If Putin does not eradicate the liberal bloc of the Government, Russia will lose the war. For Russia, the liberal world order is dead. And this is openly declared in the West

    The Russian pass was canceled by us.

      You start thinking, and then suddenly you stop half way.
      Given the fact that, not long before this, once again Putin himself confirmed his full approval of the work of Nabiulina, and at his suggestion she was again approved for her position - what follows from this?
      ...
      That Putin himself is pursuing this policy. One hand does one thing, the other does the opposite.
      The source of all contradictions is himself. Or the one behind it.
      Then his words and actions can be just a performance for an internal audience. Now take into account the time at which all this happens and draw conclusions

        There was once such an expression: "the demand of the moment." In my opinion, Putin constantly improvises, and he does it alone. This improvisation has its limitations, and I no longer trust its success. The problem is global - it needs a systematic approach

        Thank you very much for recognizing my ability to "think". Until now, I thought I was just clicking the keys.
        The fact that I'm not Putin, I think it's obvious. And the fact that Putin appointed Nabiulin again is his own business. which has become a national problem. I say that he is mistaken in this matter. And in the issue of paying the debt, the crime was committed by the Ministry of Finance. That is, the President's entourage.

        What time is it happening? During the war, the Russian Ministry of Finance armed Ukraine. I'm not wrong. I think.
        The US Congress almost unanimously decided to confiscate Russian assets abroad. And the transfer of this money to Ukraine. Of course, Ukraine will get nothing. The whole point of this initiative is to use Russian money to pay for the work of the US military-industrial complex and pay for the supply of weapons to Ukraine. The Russian Ministry of Finance decided to pay everything in dollars. The money has been transferred to England and is likely to be frozen there. And then they were confiscated. And all this will go to pay for the weapons that will be used to kill Russian servicemen.

        We'll find out tomorrow. If Citibank pays the Russian debt on May 4, then Russia has simply lost almost $650 million. If they are blocked, then it will be considered that Russia has not paid anything on the sovereign debt, a technical default will be declared and, moreover, Russia has paid for arms supplies to Ukraine for $650 million.

        It seems to me that the entire Ministry of Finance deserved an exceptional measure of punishment. Putin has options. Or he cleans up his environment. Or giving up.

          Given his experience and knowledge of Nabiulina, this cannot be his mistake. This is his intentional move. Nabiulina is simply an instrument he has carefully chosen. Goals are a really big question.
          Did it occur to you that he had already given up, some time ago?

                I do not really trust those economists who studied according to Western manuals. But sudden movements, especially in government, are unacceptable. As a leader, I am responsible for the entire enterprise. But this does not mean that I change all my department heads at once.
                Nabiulina, Siluanov work as they were taught. And little by little, power is being taken away from them. Yes, I would like them to be changed immediately. But I don't know the details.
                The Ministry of Finance committed a crime from my point of view. But I also said to wait until tomorrow. Will the transaction be made by Citibank or not?

                The decree was signed today. Item 2a last paragraph. The previous Decree contained a loophole for the Ministry of Finance. In this, too, not everything is smooth. But the loophole is almost closed.

                This Decree (and this is an official document) clearly shows that Putin does not give up.

                  Do you want to say that with the help of decrees he is fighting an unequal battle with his subordinates, who are looking for and finding loopholes in them? And he doesn't give up.
                  This is your description of the situation. No comments yet.
                  I was confused by the release date of the decree. The instruction to conduct the transaction was given prior to publication. So?
                  Putin did everything he could. The decree was published, but a little late.
                  The payment is gone. Here are the next - another matter!

                    The first decree was given a month ago. But there was a clarification that there may be exceptions.
                    Another order has been published today. And it also has a loophole.
                    Documents must be handled carefully.

                    Actually, Putin is waging war not with the help of decrees, but on the battlefield. And there the soldiers do their duty. But if you look at the situation with officials, the situation is not so hot.

                    War is always fought on multiple fronts. Military, economic, political. Unfortunately, I do not see the concentration of efforts. Not everything depends on the commander in chief. Many operations failed at the average level. This has often happened in history.

                    Victory always has an author. Defeat is always an orphan

                      The instructions are short and simple. As you can see, they are very important. Putin is a lawyer. In my opinion, this is his second nature. If there are loopholes in the decrees, he clearly sees them. Means - they are left deliberately.
                      If there are other options - call.

                      Actually, Putin is waging war not with the help of decrees, but on the battlefield. And there the soldiers do their duty.

                      Troops are waging war in Ukraine. Putin is confronting the country with the united West. Everything in general.

                        The orders are not that short.
                        But I see the situation a little differently. The Decrees do not specify specific countries and destinations. Yes, it is impossible to describe everything in detail. The supply of raw materials and financial transactions are regulated differently. Trade and financial relations with friendly countries are allowed. And forbidden with unfriendly. The situation changes almost every day. And loopholes are left not for the Ministry of Finance, but for foreign legal entities. Move to the category of friendly countries and you will be happy.
                        So the loopholes in the Decrees can be seen as an offer for peace to Western countries. But the fact that the Ministry of Finance used this loophole to transfer money to unfriendly countries is already a crime. And failure to comply with the Decree.

                        You yourself started talking about loopholes for the Ministry of Finance. As for me, I believe that if Putin did not want to send this money to the West, he should have enough formal and non-formal ways to prevent this. For 20 years in power, the former intelligence officer had to accumulate a rich professional toolkit. So - if the payment was made - this is the will of Putin, or those who are behind him

                        Decree 95 of March 3 on 5 sheets. For the Decree (instruction), this is not so short. Like two sheets. Orders should be short and clear.

                        I started talking about the crime of the Ministry of Finance. The fact that options were indicated in the Decree in no way justifies the actions of the Ministry of Finance.

                        I agree that it is impossible to transfer such sums without the President's permission. But this in no way indicates that Putin is already giving up.
                        I expressed my PERSONAL opinion that this is a crime. What were the motives of the president or the ministry - I do not know.
                        It has been written many times on the Internet that anyone can give advice and recommendations. The problem is that the vast majority of advisers have neither information nor management skills. This also applies to me. And to you. And to anyone who "knows" how to solve problems. But the responsibility is on one person. And this person, like everyone else, can make mistakes. I see the problem of the Ministry of Finance in the fact that this is not a mistake for the leadership of the ministry. This is their system of values ​​and management. The desire to stay in the world of the liberal world order. While this world is practically destroyed.

                        Putin has understood this and is acting on the basis of the understanding that Russia must get out of this circle. The best option is bloodless or with minimal losses. It's possible (I'm only guessing) that this payment is for just that. But I think this is a mistake.
                        I repeat once again. It's my personal opinion. But on this basis, I would not conclude that Putin has surrendered. I wrote that he has an alternative. Either clear the inner field or surrender. So far there is no talk of surrender.

                        When I write "surrendered" - I do not mean "went out to the enemy with his hands up".
                        I mean - "I took it for granted that, within the framework of what is available to him, Victory is impossible."
                        Let's say you need to escape from the river. If you solve this problem even by 90%, based on what seemed “possible” to you on the shore, you will still drown. All 100 are needed.
                        In my opinion, Putin proceeds from the "possible" and "available" and not "necessary", does not aim at the "impossible", associated with a mortal risk for the country right now. "Deferred Defeat Guarantee" is selected. I think that our way out lies precisely through such "impossible" decisions - remember the Caribbean crisis.
                        It is possible that Putin is simply bound hand.

                        If you admit that "victory is impossible", even within the framework of what is available, then I do not think so.

                        Victory is possible. But for this it is necessary to accept as a reality that there is not a special military operation, but a war. If the case concerned only Ukraine, then it would be an operation. Russia declared a full-scale war. And not only Ukrainians are on the front line. According to some reports (media, Russian Defense Ministry) there are about 7000 mercenaries on the front line. Maybe more. And the entire industry of the West works for the Ukrainian army.
                        Therefore, supplying the enemy (namely the enemy) with any resources is a war crime. Any statement of any person (journalist, blogger, artist, even more so) should be regarded as a betrayal with all the ensuing consequences.

                        I don't think Putin has given up. But he still has to clearly define what the task is? In this regard, K. Zatulin is the best. The person clearly and distinctly says that Ukraine, as a state, is subject to dismantling. And within the framework of reality, we must admit that there will be two Ukraine. Militarized Nazi Ukraine and New Russia. This is the given at this stage. To do this, it is necessary to achieve victory on the battlefield and bring the EU to its economic knees. This will be the second stage. An impoverished deindustrialized Europe will not be able to take care of the remnants of Ukraine.

                        So victory is possible. But only with the total mobilization of all the resources of the country.

            I apologize for interfering in your highbrow conversation ... I could not resist. With my cave realism, I propose to think about what will happen in the event of a "defeat" and "surrender", in particular Putin - to Banderlog.

            We all know how Hitler ended. We all know that Banderva is the same Hitler, only in an even more fierce sadistic incarnation. Now imagine, for a thousandth of a second, that Putin has given up? What will be prepared for him personally?

            I can not answer exactly, but in retaliation for them!!! Fuhrers ... Putin and his grandchildren will at least be caged in a zoo and, next to pandas and crocodiles, will be taken around the world, showing for money. All life. All the life of Putin's children, all the life of Putin's grandchildren, not even Putin himself ... Or maybe they will force them to publicly and forcibly reproduce in order to "carry" great-grandchildren, and so on ad infinitum...

            Does he understand this? ... - Undoubtedly. Therefore, bridges have been burned, and the Rubicon has been crossed. And there is no way back. And for Putin personally, and for Russia too ... And this is encouraging, since we all need one victory! Only a victory.

              Least of all should be interested in the personal fate of Putin. The Anglo-Saxons openly declare that their goal is the military and economic defeat of Russia. Its dismemberment and disappearance from geopolitics as a state.
              From this we must proceed.

              In December, Russia asked only for guarantees of its security. The West refused to give them. This is where we should start from.

                  1. Preservation of a significant part of foreign exchange reserves in the currency of the main enemy on the eve of the presentation of an ultimatum to him in December 2021.

                  Contradicts the need to maintain foreign exchange reserves for the purchase of imported equipment.

                  2. Presenting an ultimatum in the conditions of refusing to use the only means for its success - US nuclear blackmail

                  Visibility actions. Contradict the need for success

                  3. Transfer by the Ministry of Finance of the Russian Federation to the West on 1.05.22. the next payment on the public debt of 564,8 million dollars (in dollars!). In addition to the assets stolen by the West earlier, we have $300 billion worth of assets.

                  Contradicts the need to replenish lost foreign exchange reserves for the purchase of imported equipment.

                  4. Deployment of a special operation in Ukraine in the absence of isolation of the combat area from the supply of weapons and manpower from the West through the borders of neighboring countries. Refusal to use the only means to success - US nuclear blackmail
                  Not a solution to this problem so far.
                  Falling into an obvious trap set by the West.

                  Looks like pest.

                  5. Deployment of a special operation in Ukraine in the conditions of a real possibility of the West putting forward total economic sanctions and isolation even before its completion.
                  Refusal to use the only means to success - US nuclear blackmail

                  Looks like pest.

                  6. The absence of a decisive strategic significance of the operation in Ukraine for appeasement and forcing the US to compromise.

                  Looks like pest.

                  7. The absence of any attempts to force the United States to fulfill the requirements of our December ultimatum and, in general, any pressure on them, as on our main adversary.

                  Lack of action to address our core problem.

                  8. Russia's official rejection of nuclear blackmail as a tool to force our main adversary to retreat and have a just peace:
                  - Joint statement by Russia as part of the nuclear five on the prevention of nuclear war by its participants on January 3.01.2022, XNUMX
                  - Numerous Foreign Ministry statements

                  Political deprivation of ourselves of the opportunity to use this effective tool tested by the USSR in 1962 in the short term.

    You should focus not on the software "Mein Kampf" from Liz Truss, but on your own capabilities.
    To fight with the collective West should be "not by numbers, but by skill."
    And in the Russian Federation, it seems that there are problems with both.
    Judging by the sinking of the cruiser "Moskva" and the range of weapons supplied to Ukraine from the United States: the confrontation is moving into the sphere of high technologies.
    And who is now ahead - it is not clear.
    "Cadres decide everything!".
    You can make fun of Joe Biden's "fooling around" as much as you like, but his intention to lure Russian scientists away and thus disarm the Russian Federation in the future is absolutely right!
    So maybe it makes sense to knock out a wedge with a wedge: engage Western scientists to work in the Russian Federation?

    After such statements, the USSR drove attack cruisers with nuclear weapons on board to the shores of the stubborn, and now we’ll chew the snot again and wait for Boriska, having gone crazy in the trash, to do another dirty trick.

    The reason for thinking about intermediate results is the degradation of the goals of the special military operation from the initial non-expansion, non-deployment and denazification to the negotiations of the Russian Federation in the person of Mr. Medinsky with Ukrainian nationalists and the task of the special military operation to liberate the DPR-LPR, persistently repeated recently.
    Vladimir Putin says that the goals and objectives of the special military operation will be fulfilled - which ones, the liberation of the DPR-LPR or the denazification of Ukraine, and how can Ukraine be denazified without its complete occupation?
    One gets the impression as in that joke when a hunter shouts - he caught a bear, another one for him - drag it here. The first one answers - I can’t, it won’t let me.
    The goals of NATO-US have also changed, from initially direct non-participation in the conflict to inflicting a strategic defeat on the Russian Federation, expanding NATO through Sweden, Finland, and admitting Ukraine to the EU under an accelerated procedure. In one of the interviews, Medinsky even blurted out that the Russian Federation was not against Ukraine's entry into the EU. Very strange. This means that we are not talking about complete occupation, and the EU and NATO are two sides of the same coin. The admission of Ukraine to the EU inevitably leads it to NATO and even greater hatred of the Russian Federation.
    Maybe it’s enough to dodge, play around, pretend to be “partners” and make similar curtsies towards NATO and “cut the truth-womb” like N.S. of the war in Ukraine that our Western partners thought hard about the possible consequences of their policy and stopped in time, and for starters, at least how they reacted to the theft of 300 billion, the seizure of diplomatic and private property, a ban on speaking under their own flag and anthem, the actual declaration of war supplies of energy resources, fertilizers, railway transit, and other important goods for the enemy.

The Russian Federation tried to create a zone of influence for the Russian new empire, and the entire foreign policy of recent years has been focused on convincing the West that the former republics of the USSR are in the zones of exclusive interests of the Russian Federation and the West should not interfere there.

        Почему нет?

        The empires of the past relied on brute force. These empires have long since sunk into oblivion. Since the second half of the XNUMXth century (with the death of the British Empire), the era of new empires has begun (this name is arbitrary, I came up with it myself). Actually these new empires were two of the USSR and the USA. In addition to military power, these empires had an Idea, a well-shaped attractive ideology. As well as a super-powerful economy, which made it possible to pay for their imperial ambitions and bind the controlled territories economically. The last two factors are even more important than military power. Today, there is only one such new empire left.
        The United States binds itself more with the dollar and Hollywood than with military bases.
        If Russia can realize all three of these properties in itself, then why not.
        But today we have a weak economy with vague prospects and a poor copy of Western ideology. Yes, and the NWO casts doubt on military power.
        Even China has not become a new empire, although it would seem that the army is powerful and the second first economy in the world. But there is no attractive ideology. They cannot become masters of thoughts.

    But in one thing she is right, speaking of herself and those like her:

    "We will never feel safe again!"

    Honestly, I'm now beginning to think that wiping this island off the face of the planet would be the least sin compared to other military actions. Or perhaps the greatest service we will render to humanity.

    Once again, Alexander's world war began ...
    although according to the President - no war.

    So I remember from Ostap Bendar ... something about the main demand of the Entente - to liberate little Chernomorsk ...

    Nonsense. Nonsense in the sense that the economic consequences of the "defeat" are about 145th place. And before them, in the first place, are the fate of specific people, each of the 478 million. And discussing (after the assumption of "defeat") economic problems, the nuances of betrayal at the top, and so on - means crying over your hair when your head is cut off ....

    The defeat of Russia means the introduction of sadistic-Bendera orders throughout the territory where Russians live. And in China, and in Turkey, and ... as it turns out, in a "soft" form, even in Serbia ... Not to mention the Russian Federation. And for the 145 million population of Russia itself, our "partners", including Bandera's Ukraine (in my opinion, according to officialdom, they are still "partners") have slit necks, gouged out eyes, etc. according to the mere denunciation of the Banderaites lurking here, at the same time coveting even the beggarly property of the poor fellows, hunted to death ... The poor fellow, in the category of which the majority will fall ...

    It is strange that it does not occur to the authors that in the first place they will have to think - how to commit suicide in this most hopeless case, in the case of this very "defeat". Put an end to it in order to avoid brutal tortures... I don't know, of course, if we discuss secondary problems instead of the main problem, maybe someone will have a secret idea that they will be able to prove their loyalty to the punishers...?

    But at least it's time for me to think...

      You don't think about it. I hope that Russia will pass all tests. Remember the Time of Troubles.
      I don’t know who to put my words into their ears: the Motherland must be defended by all available means, and not divided into conventional, and not very. It's not worth appeasing the enemy with songs about our disgust for nuclear weapons, which were made for a big beast, with love and high hopes.

    The greed, cowardice and venality of the current Russian government continues to be more than modestly discussed on at least some media platforms, and for the most part completely hushed up. Just scared. But what if you think about the topic "why did this happen"? What, for thirty years of contemplation of all this bacchanalia in relation to Russia from the West, we had no idea about this? No, they even knew that it would be so. Then another question arises, why didn’t they do anything except “they just die”, and prepare themselves “to paradise”? Not everyone was satisfied with such a prospect ...
    And they took us, and for a "one-two" they brought us close to this.
    To date, in all the chicken coops, it is being discussed when the nuclear apocalypse will begin. Then why did Russia maintain a Homeric staff of diplomats, who all these years mercilessly milked the country's budget, and the result turned out to be zero? With huge resources in the country, even if not with the best leadership, with the ability to solve with money what cannot be solved with guns, we still asked for this opportunity. It didn't work out like they say. Why?
    Yes, simply because the mentality, principles and way of life of the leaders of the country turned out to be at the level of primitive gangster concepts, invested in their brains by brothers from the nineties, in close unity with which the formation of these very principles took place. The number of oligarchs, thieving officials with their yachts, palaces and estates, "kickbacks" and "cuts" of the state budget, just thieves at all levels in state structures determined the fate of Russia for years to come. And suddenly - war!
    And things didn't go the way we wanted. Blitzkrieg failed, the army is fighting as best it can, and with what it can. But this is a topic for another conversation. And according to the meaning of this article, one can only support the author that half-measures in achieving the correctly declared goals of the operation are unacceptable.
    We need a complete and unconditional victory! Then the West will shove its tongue into ... you know where.
    But in order for this to happen as quickly as possible, something needs to be done at the level of our government.
    What exactly - many already understand.
    And to whom it is not clear - think. Just hurry up...

    It happened because the military without exception betrayed the oath in 1991 and in 1993 - "not to spare life itself to protect the socialist fatherland", and her words, spoken in Soviet times, came true:

    If I break this oath, let the wrath and contempt of the working people overtake me.

    A miracle happened!

    The masses of people who watched with interest on TV how the defenders of the White House died in October 1993 - themselves began to deeply despise each other!
    And in the end - - in return for those who died in the White House, they received those deputies and the power that they deserved.

    There will be an era of imperialism or something else, it doesn’t matter anymore, we don’t need a world without Russia.
