Five years have passed, and the television book is standing in front of the eyes as living. He then faded somewhere Entavehnny announcer with an eternally frightened face and his excited nightly speeches. Wound explosions behind him, where reporters worked with a picture in the background. The assault was already going on for a long time, it was already over, and the guys tried to convey this thought to his consciousness, and he complained, looking at the piece of paper: they say, the employees of the operational headquarters could not get through to Barayev ... Then the first two hostages ran out of the captured house and disappeared behind the cars, pulled up the tragedies, and stood there for a long time, and then drove away and then drove up and then drove up and then drove up, and then drove up the street. Almost hundreds of “ambulance” carriages, reanimobiles, filled.
And then he finally came out to the journalists of Ignatchenko from the FSB, he was brief and very angry, and the host of NTV saw it, and on all Russian state state points the events of this night gained the severity of the political formula: the survival operation was carried out, the assault was completed. A little later, a bright adjective was added to the noun: a brilliant assault.
But when the number of dead will be very overwhelmed by a hundred, this will turn out to be few, and then the state and its deduced special propagandists, eloquent speakers, and gold feathers will take up the matter. They, pushing each other at the microphones, will soon explain to the shocked fellow citizens that they survived the sharp stage of the Stockholm syndrome that they did not lead with the bandits of negotiations that Russia survived. And this phrase is forever impressed in the brains.
There was a storming brilliant or failure, the hostages were killed “not from gas”, as the president would say suddenly, or were still poisoned, acted correctly at the operational headquarters or, by virtue of natural mediocrity, destroyed people - all this will remain a secret for a long time, like the gas formula. It will not matter. It will be unnoticed, like dead bodies under a collapsed banner: "Russia has survived!"
Why look for the guilty if the country is saved?
Therefore, five years later, as expected, few people recall about the Nord-Ost, using some others far from state formulas of the definition. In addition to the relatives of the dead. In addition to mothers and fathers of children who died in Beslan and sensed blood kinship with Muscovites. In addition to those for whom manufacturers of patriotic slogans are akin to terrorists. For those, too, will not cut the throat of the Plenny, without glorifying the Great Ichkeria, Great Albania, Great Serbia. They also spit on people, the country would live.
... In general, this is the right feeling: "Nord-Ost" was yesterday.
Like five years ago, everything is clear with this state and its sharp feathers. Like five years ago, in the minds of the unfinished slanderers-lawyers and in the subconscious of other citizens, it appears to be a ruthless killer and cannibal. Like five years ago, there is no answer to the most important questions related to the Dubrovka terrorist attack.
About the Barayev clan and its ties to the FSB. About why none of the terrorists has driven an explosive device, although they had enough time for this. About what purpose the Chechens and Chechens who have lost consciousness and Chechen, whose testimonies for the country fighting terror, would be invaluable, would be invaluable. What was the authority of the authorities if the trial of people who captured the theater center on Dubrovka took place?
I have no doubt that the answers to these questions will sooner or later be found. Even if the whole operation was prepared exclusively on the basis of oral orders coming from the Lubyanka and from the Kremlin. In the end, today we know the exact figure of the general Trotyl equivalent of explosive devices in the hall: the relatives of the dead knocked out her from the investigation. And later, when the era of special operations finally ends, when other people come to power in Russia, the time will come for new proceedings on old affairs. How almost always happens in history, and not only in Russia. I’m not talking about the fact that over the years of other special citizens, conscience wakes up in the most unexpected way, wherever they serve and no matter what subscriptions about non -disclosure fastened their mouth. Such is the structure of man - the most cruel, insane and unpredictable creation of all the creatures of the earth.
And then we will learn a lot of new things. Not only about "Nord-Ost", but also about themselves. About who was chosen in these amazing zero years, to whom they believed, who killed us and who tried to save us. And if this lesson we or our children, for the first time in the years of the country's existence, will learn a nazum, then Russia will really stand. But five years after a brilliant assault - the term is too insignificant to hope for the right court, historical retribution for the murderers and the mercy of this state.
