Freedom comes with the Nagan ...

Well, the Pindos, for which they fought - they ran into it. Such is the quintessence of the majority of comments that appeared in the Russian media about the next wave of anti -American manifestations, which overwhelmed the Big Middle East. She followed the appearance on the Internet of commercials of the film “Innocence of Muslims”, which, according to radical followers of Islam, insulted the Prophet Muhammad. American embassies are storming in Egypt, Tunisia, Lebanon, Sudan, and a good ten states. In Libyan Benghazi, it all ended in the murder of the US ambassador.

Domestic statesmen are frankly gloating. They consider the truth of the Putin version that the whole “Arab spring”, which led to the overthrow of several authoritarian regimes, was the result of the conspiracy of the Western intelligence services. And now it turns out that the evil CIA once again brutally miscalculated: those whom it, insidious, supported, began to smash the American embassies. The authors do not bother the explanation of the obvious contradiction: if the Western special services have enough resources to raise uprising, then why they cannot calculate their consequences over and over again. Maxim Shevchenko, who told the maximum faith in the omnipotence of the CIA, was shown: the murder of the American ambassador was planned by the White House in order to raise the chances of Barack Obama to the election. Considerations like those, unlike Russia, American officials in the CIA, Pentagon and the State Department are not at all ready to commit state crimes on the orders of the chief chief, are not taken into account. As well as the obvious circumstance that the new anti -American wave turned Obama by no means into a triumph, but into a target for the Republicans, who accuse him of indecision and weakness. To reality, all these exercises of Kremlin propaganda have nothing to do.

Reality, as usual, is much more complicated than its interpretation on Russian television. In anti -American unrest that covered giant territories from Tunisia to Afghanistan, as well as India and Indonesia, one of the main contradictions of globalization is manifested: many millions of Muslims were on the sidelines of world development. On the one hand, they completely inadequately perceive the world around him, confident that the insidious West is only preoccupied with how to cause an insult to Islam. In fact, what is happening is an obvious manifestation of a Muslim inferiority complex. Thanks to information technologies - television and the Internet - these same millions can watch daily how the inhabitants of other states lead a completely different life, rich and free. It seems to them that the insidious Westerners stole the opportunity to live in them in the same way. Moreover, those inhabitants of the Islamic countries who are lucky to move to Europe are experiencing the same emotions.

So, hundreds of millions of people who deny Western civilization insist on their “right” to use its fruits. For the first time, this problem, probably, the most important in the world today, stood up after September 11, 2001, after the destruction of twin towers in New York. The monstrous terrorist attack, which claimed the lives of several thousand people, caused glee on the Arab Street, and this was a shock for Washington. The answer to George Bush was suggested by neoconservatives from his administration (“Busheviks” - as my acquaintance, prominent official of the US administration called them with irony, who chose to resign at that time so as not to participate in further events). They recommended to capture Iraq, which was quite in Marxistly considered a weak link in the Middle East. The idea was to turn Iraq into a window of the free world, and then rebuild other states in its image and likeness. The consequences of these completely Bolshevik actions are still rampant by Barack Obama. The situation was even more complicated after the “Arab Spring” swept through the Great's Middle East. It is clear that authoritarian leaders like Mubarak or Gaddafi were much more convenient for Washington than Arabic Street. They could be bought, it was possible to agree with them. Unlike crowds of angry Muslims, victims and criminals at the same time. Alas, freedom comes not only by naked, but also with the Nagan. However, none of the American presidents will risk counteracting the obvious desire of the peoples for freedom, even if this will soon mean a serious threat.

It is more or less clear that the power of military manner could not be solved (Saltykov-Shchedrin’s wars come to mind). And in general, it is not very clear how to solve it. However, the fact that this problem exists for the United States and the West as a whole does not mean that Russia will receive at least some advantages. A year and a half will take place, and as the troops of the international coalition, American problems will be ours will become ours. Russia has no answer to these challenges. It remains to be hoped that Mr. Shevchenko and Leontyev will cover our border with a chest somewhere in the Orenburg region-it is there that, as I suppose, Russia will face tens of thousands of people who consider itself offended by the fact that for some reason our country does not want to feed them. Just as the inhabitants of the Great Middle East are now outraged that the West does not want to feed them. However, there is no doubt that even then, G. Leontyev and Shevchenko will cheerfully tell that this is the result of the conspiracy of the damned CIA ...
