Paradox: The nuclear war has not even begun, but already tired of worse than a bitter radish. The reason is understandable. Too much has been said on this topic for the year, and if at first the upcoming Apocalypse was perceived as fresh stunning news, then over time, Khokhma was boring. Exclusive pulled out as ash.
However, this is a purely Russian paradox, somehow probably associated with the national character, in which the sparking fatalism connects with the age-old indifference. That is, probably, the authorities with such ease a little that it waves a bomb, like a saber, and the journalistic workshop does not work out for fear of his killer dungeons, and a simple public, full of pride, does not object to. The war is so war, the nuclear is so nuclear. The authorities know better.
In the West, where everyday readiness for suicide, especially collective, is not a state -forming ideology, other feelings evoke reports about a nuclear war. That is, every time it is news, and fresh, which does not bother. Whether the Northern Koreans will threaten for the hundredth time by the "Sea of Fire", will the guards of the Islamic Revolution talk about their peaceful atom, whether the Russian TV presenter will tell about the radioactive ash, whether the Russian ambassador will regret the doomed Danes or President Putin himself will recall the nuclear suitcase - all this awakens considerable interest. Burgers. In the mass of their not prone to fatalism and indifference.
So yesterday’s text in the London Times so carried away the Western audience that he was repeatedly retold in many other publications, in different languages. The news has become primary. Although in it, in good conscience, it is difficult to understand such a sensational, Russian -speaking reader.
Well, veterans of the special services of Russia and the USA met in Berlin in February in Berlin. Well, the “Russian participants” presented them with the conditions under which “direct and, it is possible, even a nuclear confrontation of the two powers is possible.” For the Crimea, we said, we will fight to death for the east of Ukraine, if America begins to supply weapons there, as well as for the Baltic countries, if they offend the "Russian -speaking minority". Now this information about a frank conversation held in the German capital flowed into the press, and a scandal erupted.
The main trouble is that the interest of Western readers in this topic is huge and the comments are relevant . Putin, for example, is compared with Gaddafi, although they are so different. Analysts are trying again to understand: the Russian president has lost contact with reality or only pretends to scare the wise. The obscenity of Bill Broud, who calls Vladimir Vladimirovich, is quoted, and some other “former friend” explaining the mechanism of transforming a Chekist into paranoid. They are wondering where the Baltnash special operation will begin - with riots on the streets or from a cyber attack.
A worthy rebuke gives them to all of them a press secretary of Peskov in the framework of the next briefing. This, says, is a classic example of the ongoing hysteria in the demonization of our country. Referring to the place to the “sensational film” about the Crimea and offering to turn to the original source, namely the words of the president, ”from which, in fact, the next immersion in the topic began. Indeed, Putin in that film said that, annexing the Crimea, he “gave direct instructions” to the military, in which case, “bring nuclear forces to combat readiness. It is clear that the instructions are not given to execute them, and the warheads are not aiming at the enemy not in order to hit him, but to have fun. In general, Dmitry Sergeyevich resolutely shared all the suspicions, skillfully warming fears. With that fundamental fatalism and indifference when handling facts, which favorably distinguishes the Kremlin’s policy recently.
In short, there is nothing new in these news. The only intrigue that can truly interest a Russian-speaking citizen that is familiar to everything is to be called an editorial secret. It is curious who leaked the British newspaper information about the secret summit of the veterans of Lubyanka and the CIA.
The article reports that on the eve of the meeting of Russian retirees, Lavrov himself was instructed, who, in turn, voiced the theses “approved by Putin”, and here we can assume that one of the Russian generals organized a leak. In order to further claim the Western audience or for some other reason, which will not suddenly open.
It is even more interesting if secret information about the overheard briefing and subsequent conversation leaked from Western sources. Then we can talk about the big game in Washington’s conflict with Moscow, during which Vladimir Vladimirovich is made to understand that his plans were finally taken into account and it was time to take them to the court of the world. So that everyone who else has some illusions or empty hopes, it became clear what is now lying on the scales. And if the fear of a nuclear massacre still replaced all other feelings in the minds of the Western layman, then this undisguised blackmail will affect him differently. Awakening the feelings of others who have long been experiencing in relation to the Russian regime, for example, Ukrainian citizens. Fatal feelings, albeit without excessive nonsense.
It turns out that the conditions put forward by the Kremlin are, in principle, unacceptable for humanity. Yesterday Crimea, today Donbass, tomorrow the Baltic countries, but what is the day after tomorrow? This, as said in one film about the Nazis, information for thought, is such a shock. Information to which you will have to get used to how the Russian audience is used to it. And a person is so arranged that he does not only get used to literally with any news, but with a well -known share of pragmatism, characteristic of civilized people, seeks to solve and not say that he does not care. In other words, Putin was deadly tired of the West, like this endless series about a nuclear war, but they will not brush themselves away from the studied news in America and in Europe. They are too tiring to read them every day and live with an eye on the cessation of history and the end of the world.
