On the morning of September 30, we once again woke up in a slightly different country. Sergei Borisovich Ivanov once modestly and everyday announced to us that the Federation Council was given permission to use Russian troops. By the way, it is generally not clear where. Maybe - in Syria, maybe in Antarctica.
And again, as in the case of Crimea and Donbass, this was a decision of one person. And this person can be understood. In German there is even a special term Putinversteher . He had a difficult childhood. If at all. Remember the replica of Colonel Schukin from the Soviet film "Adjutant of his Excellency" - "What do you have, a second lieutenant, and did you have a mother?"
Recently, Putin has accumulated serious psychological and, sorry for the expression, existential problems. He lost largely in Ukraine. This is evidenced by the fact that the spiritual geopolitical brands of the last summer "Russian Mir" and "Novorossia" were removed from media and political circulation. As a comforting prize, Putin is now stubbornly trying to break the gangster “LPR-DNR” as a cancer tumor into the political body of Ukraine, which he also does not really succeed.
And the most unpleasant for Putin - all this perfectly sees and understands his inner circle. For any dictator, a foreign policy means a threat to his personal power. Akela missed, and the members of the Politburo immediately have very unpleasant and dangerous thoughts. Russian Kleptocracy lives according to the laws of the criminal zone, and the lowered plowman for it is no longer a plowman.
Assad's ass became the same sacred value of the Russian people as a Chersonesos, and Putin will now protect it to the last
Therefore, it was vital to Putin to dramatically change the agenda in the international arena and demonstrate some convincing success in his sacred struggle against the soulless Pindos on some other front. Show the doubtful Aryan tribe that the leader is still O-th-th and is a major player in the world arena. After all, our propaganda was explained by the gullible telepousists that it was not a war on Russia with Ukraine at all, as it might seem to someone, but the global war of the “Russian world” with the Anglo-Saxon, and above all with the United States, which also unfolded in Ukraine. So why not transfer the main television theater of military operations from sin away to the flaming of the Middle East.
The second accompanying task is to save the ordinary Assad. For Putin, this is a deeply personal obsessive idea. In his inflamed geopolitical consciousness, the forces of world evil consistently destroy the most fundamental fighters with a single -polar world. First - Gaddafi, then - Assad, the next - Putin. He was a very great impression of a video with the last minutes of Gaddafi’s life, and he swore to himself: nothing like this would happen to Assad.
The ass of Assada became the same sacred value of the Russian people-bearing people as Chersonesus, and Putin will now protect it to the last.
But Putin would never have been able to impose personal egoistic foreign policy goals to an entire country-the preservation of his lifelong power, the security of a fellow dictator-if the entire political class with him was not struck by the same virus of rabies of the sovereign-patriotic uterus.
The most important ideologist of the Russian foreign policy discourse is the voluptuous savory of a certain “humiliation” allegedly experienced in the last quarter century by Russia as a result of the defeat of the USSR in the Cold War. This is a demonstrative breakdown of chips and a demonstration of geopolitical ulcers - the favorite occupation of our entire political "elite" from the asiopes of Prokhanov and Dugin to the Westerners Arbatov and Lukin. The greatness, greatness and once again the Russian political "elite" crawls, insisting on its unique and highest spirituality, opposing the mercantilism of the Podadnic West.
There is no America - and everything is allowed. Walk on a global buffet
Therefore, the very appearance of Russian troops in the traditional estate of the Anglo -Saxon world - in the Middle East - the horse dose of the imperial drug in the vein of the complex "elite" spun. And when a three -star Russian general is a firm, and maybe even a non -hardly gait appeared at the American embassy in Baghdad and in an ultimatic tone demanded that the American military immediately remove its aircraft from the sacred sky of Antioch?! And when, consecrated by a limited contingent of specially imported Orthodox priests, “drying” began to be carried to a damn mother position of a pro -Western free Syrian army?!
Of course, once, and maybe even very soon a painful breakdown will inevitably come. But it will be later. In the meantime, this is our little Balabanovsky "Triumph of the Volya": "But tell me, American, what is strength? I think that in truth!" And then, our good Hitler, like a gambling player in a casino, having lost again, will increase the bets again and go to us the final sedative dose.
But we, fortunately, are not alone in our struggle. Our prudent leader created the “anti -Hitler coalition” with the coordination center in Baghdad: the Iranian corps of the “Guardians of the Islamic Revolution”, the Iraqi Shiite police, the “Hezbollah”, and, finally, the Assad army, which has already destroyed more than 200,000 Sunnis.
Excellent anti -Hitlerists, the same notorious terrorists as the Islamic State. Maybe they do not suit the same theatrical executions, but they have no less blood in their hands. These wonderful people, under our air cover, will conduct a ground operation against all Assad opponents in Syria, and maybe against all opponents of the Shiite government in Baghdad. Once again, slowly, in the beanings, please, we, together with these people, will be methodically in large quantities over the course of a long time we will kill the Sunnis. Any sorts of: supporters of the Islamic State, supporters of a free Syrian army, just inhabitants, including inevitably - women and children. Did we not kill them in Chechnya and in Afghanistan?
For what?!! Official answer: we must kill them at distant borders so that they do not come to us. The highest ranks of the state, who memorized this mantra, either consciously lie, or try to deceive themselves. We climbed into the most a medieval religious war. Our Orthodox-Shiite Crusade will not reduce the number of Sunni radicals. On the contrary, their number will increase sharply in Syria, and in Iraq, and all over the world. Including in Russia. In fact, Putin and I are going to kill the Sunnis so that he remains in the power for life, and millions of "humiliated" Putinversteher OV could finally triumph to get their mother from the broad trousers and show the hated pindos.
Losing the last decisive battle of Kievan Rus and the Golden Horde, the Horde Khan in despair opened a second front against one and a half billion Sunnis. “He is ** Nuty, Vladimir Putin,” Boris Nemtsov, killed by Putin’s regime, was repeated today.
PS And where, with all, Kerry and Obama? - the thoughtful reader will ask me. And nowhere. Our seasoned ribbentrophic at each meeting as a dominant alpha male suppresses his impact. He only exclaims joyfully: "Sergei! Oh, sergei!"
After a three -day deafening silence, Obama expressed concern (even shallow), but he sent a deeply reassuring message to Putin: “This is the battle of Russia, Iran and Assad with the overwhelming majority of the Syrian people. We are not going to join the warfares in Syria. Our battle is with the“ Islamic state ”, our battle is a resolution of the conflict together with the conflict together with The international community in a way that can stop bloodshed and a crisis with refugees. " Translated from the diplomatic blah blah, this means: "Dear Bashar and Vladimir! You can kill anyone in Syria, especially our allies, sorry, puppets. This is not ours, but your battle. We will continue to conduct a constructive dialogue about the cessation of bloodshed."
Some stunned domestic observers see a conspiracy in all this, Obama's cunning plan to lure Russia into a dangerous trap. No, this is worse than a conspiracy, it is a consistent foreign policy position of the Obamov administration. Generating the Russian leadership of a fatal illusion of absolute impunity. There is no America - and everything is allowed. We walk around the global buffet.
