Results of the week. "To whom is the prologue, and to whom is the epilogue"
The media is “boiling” with respect to the first long-range cruise of the AUG of the Russian Navy to the shores of Syria, and in the meantime new intriguing details are opened concerning the strike weapons deployed on the basis of the 279-th separate naval fighter regiment deployed on board the Admiral Kuznetsov TAVKR.
It is known that the multipurpose MiG-29K / KUB with a rich nomenclature of missile-bomb armament will form the strike base of the deck wing, and several advanced Su-33 equipped with high-precision SVP-24-33 “Gefest” will have air cover and additional work on ground targets. The composition of the armament of the Ka-52K Katran naval attack helicopters has not been disclosed until recently, however, the Internet version of Izvestia revealed some details to 26 in October: the pilots will receive the Hermes-A (Klevok-A) anti-tank missile system.
The uniqueness of the Hermes-A, the land and ship versions of which will also later appear on the armament of the Russian Army, is beyond doubt. After equipping a more powerful solid-fuel first stage, the range of a Russian tactical missile can be about 100 km, and the Hermes will turn into one of the most advanced and compact means of air attack.

War criminal show face
US State Department spokesman John Kirby said at a briefing that the American coalition bombed terrorists and extremists exclusively, while Russia and Syria "are attacking civilians, including oppositionists." According to Kirby, there are practically no terrorists in Aleppo, while Russia and Syria are attacking the “moderate opposition” and civilians.
The use of chemical weapons by militants in Aleppo do not see, Russian submarines see...
Mr. Kirby must not have read the statement of the UN special envoy to resolve the conflict in Syria, Staffan de Mistura. This man identified the “moderate rebels” with the terrorists: the named “rebels” lead indiscriminate shelling of the western quarters in Aleppo, as well as the corridors along which civilians want to go. Mistura noted that such actions of the "rebels" should be considered as unequivocal war crimes.
Mr. Kirby along with his boss in this case should be classified as people covering war criminals.
By the way, the Syrian news agency SANA reports on the use by militants of terrorist groups, persistently called by the West "moderate opposition", chemical weapons. Militants fired shells with toxic substances quarter, which is the military academy of Aleppo. Mr Kirby did not notice.

Obama in a puddle
The Russian Ministry of Defense has notified the Pentagon that attempts by the US Air Force to bomb targets in Syria without permission from the Kremlin will receive a forceful response, they write in the West. Foreign analysts conclude: Putin has achieved strategic goals in Syria. He saved the Assad regime, and the Americans managed to portray the villains who support the terrorists. Obama with his policy sat in a puddle.
John Schindler in Observer, in fact, recognized Putin as the winner in Syria. The author drew a parallel between the situation in Syria and historical situation in the former Yugoslavia. Both confrontations in ethnically and religiously diverse states "were unnatural." Yugoslavia actually broke up exactly 20 years before Syria began to boil, but the conflicts that led to the disaster of the two states now seem similar: a cruel mishmash of opposing groups, religious and ethnic extremism, contempt for civilians. There is a difference: Russia helping Assad can change the outcome of the conflict in Syria.
True, the author of the material in the Observer does not consider that Putin and his ministers are “strategic geniuses”. Not at all. Putin and his ministers "acted cynically and cunningly in Syria," but the White House, which failed, gave the opportunity to them, whose owner demonstrated "stunning, unprecedented foreign policy incompetence." Again and again, Obama and his entourage made mistakes and eventually turned foreign policy into some kind of amateur activity. These losers were again and again conquered by Russians who looked at American politicians "with undisguised contempt."

Sarah, we are not alone
The Israeli publication mako.co.il publishes material in which it argues that "there is a growing likelihood of conflict" between Israel and Russia. The newspaper writes that the strengthening of Russia's military presence in the region is worrying the Israeli military, since "for the first time in 40 years, the Israeli Air Force and Navy in the region are not alone and do not have full control."
The publication refers to some representatives of the armed forces of the country, who "in private conversations" declare their surprise about the quantity and quality of Russian weapons and military equipment operating "near the borders of Israel." The portal reports that the Israeli army is actually accustomed to complete freedom of action in the region: on land, at sea and in the air. Now, for example, the Israeli military pilots are forced to act with an eye to the fact that Russia has the latest air defense systems in Syria.
According to the author of the article in the Israeli media, “the clash between Israel and Russia” is only a matter of time.
Two or three more such articles, and the rumor will reach the “international media”, where it will be corrected and edited so that the globe will become clear: Muscovites, dug “near the borders of Israel”, are threatened with “complete control” of Tel Aviv. Further, of course, followed by the annexation of Israel and its accession to the Jewish Autonomous Region.

Sorry, but you are to blame
On Saturday last week, the story of how an American aircraft type AWACS (aviation detection and guidance complex), coming out of its train in the sky of Syria, approached about half a kilometer (according to other information, about half a mile) to the Russian fighter Su -35. Perhaps, for the first time in recent years, the American side decided to apologize for breaking the flight regime (leaving the train). Given the deepest American confidence in their own infallibility and planetary exclusivity, it draws on a sensation. However, realizing that they themselves create a precedent, the Americans immediately decided to play back.
A representative of the so-called American coalition operating in Syria, said that the guilty party “should be considered a Russian pilot,” but the Americans decided to “have mercy” on the “unlucky Russian pilot” and declared that his actions were not premeditated ...
Well, we are waiting for the third statement from the Americans: that the Russian pilot showed a “low level of professionalism,” or even real “unprofessionalism,” violated the rules of peaceful life in the sky and generally planned to circle Syria, and then sharply turn, fly to Washington and shoot the White House, where the main peacemaker of the planet lives in the last weeks.

Hybrid warfare in the canteen
The publication of The Telegraph colorfully tells about the incident that occurred with representatives of the British military contingent in Latvia. A couple of royal warriors who ate hamburgers in the McDonalds canteen were attacked suddenly. Bottom line: beatings and injuries. Who inflicted? There is a version! British journalists argue that the attack was carried out in the framework of the “hybrid war of Russia against Western countries, in particular, Britain.”
Moreover, the British media claims that those who attacked the valiant soldiers of Her Majesty with their fists, then "disappeared into the office of the media, known for its pro-Russian views." The fight in the catering establishment is very agile and mobile people managed to shoot a video camera. True, the name of the media with "pro-Russian views" is not mentioned. And the address is not specified.
The NATO soldier biomass, which for some time has settled in Latvia, behaves ugly in the republic, for which, it must be supposed, it gets into the snout. NATO members urinate on the flower beds, on the statues, arrange dances on the roof of a taxi and take off their pants in front of the cafe windows. NATO members, we note, not Russian.

Good commission
On Tuesday, The Wall Street Journal, having managed to get ahead of its European colleagues, published a report that the European Commission had allowed the Russian concern Gazprom to increase the load on the OPAL gas pipeline. News This somehow did not become a sensation. European media sluggishly duplicated it, but refrained from commenting.
To be precise, the European Commission allowed the Russian concern to use OPAL on 90% of its capacity. I would allow everything to 100, but for the time being the European officials are “holding their face,” notes G. Granovsky.
The reason is simple: in recent years, when the Cold War was revived, the OPAL gas pipeline was for Europeans not only an infrastructure object, but also a means of deterring Gazprom’s export plans. After all, the attacks on Gazprom are one of the best ways to pressure Russia, highly dependent on the supply of raw materials abroad.
With the Russian gas pipeline helped ... Ukraine. The European Commission did not play political games with the people of Kiev who are not in a hurry to fill gas storages with Russian gas and are demanding money from the EU, and as much as possible opened the gas valve for Gazprom’s access to the countries where hydrocarbon supplies were threatened by Ukraine. The bargaining of the gas company turned out to be inappropriate for the EU, as it was supposed. There wasn’t enough Brussels to depend on Kiev’s position!
The political and economic outcome is clear: the European Commission, by its decision, has made it clear who Europe can really count on and who is a reliable partner for it.

Counterintelligence went public
Russia poses a growing threat to the stability of Britain and uses all the modern means at its disposal to achieve its goals, said Andrew Parker, director general of the British Security Service, to The Guardian.
By the way, this man became the first general director among all the chiefs of MI5, who agreed to give interviews to journalists. This was not the 107 years of service!
According to MI5, Moscow uses a variety of means and methods to “promote its foreign policy” in foreign countries. Russian spying, sabotage, cyber attacks and propaganda. So it happens "throughout Europe and the UK."
Earlier, Mr. Parker stated that his agency has reasons to make part of MI5’s activities public: “We must find an approach to people, develop public relations and involve citizens in the service as agents, to work for us.”
Obviously, we add, the head of the British counterintelligence service found a convenient excuse both for expanding the activities and staff of his service, and for making excuses before an incorruptible court and a tumultuous British civil society, and at the same time to some extent even before Snowden, whose documents are in 2013. It was published in The Gurdian (the newspaper did not fear the wrath of the Prime Minister himself). The reason is the “Russian threat”, which no one thought about in 2013.
The strange thing is that the head of MI5 was revealed to the press only at the end of 2016. And such a headache is headed by a powerful intelligence service, who dreams of defeating the Russians?
It is not surprising that this man did not name in an interview any Russian spy-saboteur caught in the last three years, sent to London by comrade Putin.

So, when everyone, who is not lazy, collapsed Russia, sponsored terrorism in the Caucasus, organized sabotage in industry and manufacturing, oh ... they fucked up our history - was everything good? And when otvetki began to arrive, we immediately try to hide behind the "laws"?
The next yelling and calls for "humanitarian bombardment" and the preparation of the population for ... but what is the topic of a separate conversation.
Commonwealth №4
Lawmakers in Kiev and Warsaw recently adopted a joint resolution “On the Declaration of Memory and Solidarity of the Sejm of the Republic of Poland and the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine”. Announcing this event, the politicians of the two countries talked about a trilateral political action, to which the deputies of the Lithuanian Seimas should join. On this occasion, the chairman of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, Andrey Paruby, even made a special statement. He noted that the Seimas International Affairs Committee had already supported the text of the declaration. Ukrainian deputies nodded to Parubiy approvingly, paying little attention to the fact that the election campaign was over in Lithuania, and a different composition of the deputies of the Lithuanian parliament should give an assessment of the joint declaration, observer G. Granovsky notes.
The Seimas deputies did not accidentally mention the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth in their resolution. In fact, the tragic events of 1943 took place in the occupied territory of Soviet Ukraine. As you know, Volyn only until 1939, was part of Poland. During the war, fascist henchmen hosted here - Ukrainian nationalists.
Poland persistently promotes its idea to return the lands lost before the war and form the fourth Rzeczpospolita. The provisions on the illegality of the rejection of its eastern territories and the "crime" of the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact have already been entrenched in the PACE and European Parliament documents. Now they are migrating to bilateral agreements with their neighbors.
The politicians of old Europe refer to the eastern plans of Poland with a certain degree of condescension and call them not “strategy”, but “improvisation”.

But this, unfortunately, will not. Big Brother will not allow them, because it is unprofitable.

It can be assumed that this topic will initially acquire the implementation in the form of creating nat. autonomy on the territory of Ukraine, in which the interests of Hungary, Romania, Poland involved will be consolidated, well, and in the future it is likely that the issue will be resolved through a referendum in these autonomies on voluntary adherence to designated countries. So to say, through the will of the people !!!
It seems that soon the topic of non-recognition by Europe of the Crimean referendum will be resolved in favor of its recognition, in order to use this precedent in resolving territorial claims with Ukraine, but already with Poland, Hungary and Romania.
So the division of Ukraine, it seems, can not be avoided.

The quantity is, the matter of quality?
“Recently, in various media outlets in the West and in Russia, more and more often there is an interesting topic from the point of view of exactly what I wrote above. Theme forced peace of Ukraine. Donbass nothing to fear. APU and punishers have nothing and nothing to shoot. They buried the Ukrainian Armed Forces before the deadline, ”write military experts A. Staver and R. Skomorokhov.
In fact, although they write about the absence of soldiers for the ATO (about the lack of personnel in the Armed Forces of Ukraine and law enforcement agencies), the influx takes place: “And for a compulsory conscription, and, oddly enough, they go completely to themselves voluntarily. And not disabled people go at all, but quite healthy young guys. Those who worked in the factories the day before yesterday, but today are simply out of work. Not everyone has the opportunity to trade in the market, and the purchasing power in Ukraine today is not the same. And the army is a place where a person will be guaranteed to be provided with everything (or almost everything) necessary. By the way, about the same situation in LDNR. Even worse. ”
Therefore, in today's Ukraine there is someone to serve. How to serve is another quality issue. As for the quantity, Kiev has enough ammunition as well as soldiers.

Do not confuse the concept of the oath and the country with the ideals of the nationalists (who are fighting very badly, and even framed the APU). The army of Ukraine is heterogeneous in its ideas, but for the most part it is the defense of the country. That it is promoted by the media. And Bandera doesn’t like the Southerners and is not at all central. He is a stranger.
The people and the party are one
On October 31, during the meeting of the Council on Interethnic Relations in Astrakhan, Vladimir Putin supported the idea of the need to “work on the adoption” of the law on the unity of the Russian nation. Vladimir Putin is quoted as saying by TASS: “What exactly is absolutely possible and necessary to implement, right above this, you need to think about it and in practical terms, start working - this is the law on the Russian nation. Good offer".
Some time ago, Vyacheslav Mikhailov, head of the department of national and federative relations of the Russian Academy of National Economy and Public Service, voiced a proposal to state men to consider the adoption of the law “On the Russian Nation and the Management of Inter-Ethnic Relations”. The name of a possible future law also belongs to Vyacheslav Mikhailov, who at one time served as Minister for Nationalities Affairs, and who today advocates changing the Constitution in terms of introducing into it the concept of the same “Russian nation”.
According to Mikhailov, the state must determine the ideological line in order to continue development. At the same time, Mikhailov believes that the idea should be as fundamental as the idea of building communism. If in a nutshell, the Russian nation is offered not to “pull down from above” in the form of a “pointer”, but rather to build: the citizen of the Russian Federation should be conscious that he is primarily a citizen of Russia with his nationality.
You would think the idea of communism was not lowered from above! Remember the slogan: "Things and thoughts of Ilyich will survive the centuries"? Centuries really survived the affairs and thoughts of Lenin. Yes, there is a century, a few decades is enough.
No foundation, especially Marxist, in the construction of "communism" and did not smell. To build, and without a foundation, it was possible only that state capitalism, which Grandfather Lenin preached. Very unstable structure came out.
And here is a much more complicated question - the nation. It cannot be defined by any law there. There was a law - got the nation. It's as funny as waiting for communism for the 1980 year or a separate apartment for the 2000 year.
And how should one speak to a Russian person about oneself? "I am Russian Russian"? Or "I am Russian Russian"?
Mikhailov's “good offer” is nothing more than an attempt to replace the historically dead definition of “Soviet” with the definition of “Russian”. The imperial vision of the future of Russia is obvious here. With the difference that the word "Soviet" came for history, and did not run ahead of it. Moreover, the ideologists of the law of unity hardly have any idea about the replacement of communism. Perhaps instead of communism we substitute oligarchic capitalism and corruption?
Although, of course, the law must be taken. In the end, we already have a “united” party, and the people cannot be left behind from the party in terms of unity.

Chechnya is on its feet
The proposal of the Ministry of Finance of the Russian Federation on the budget of Chechnya for the next year, suggesting a reduction in expenses, is unacceptable for the republic, RIA Novosti reports Ramzan Kadyrov’s statement.
The head of the republic noted that Chechnya is “only now on its feet,” but there are still a lot of problems. “Chechnya is among the two only regions where there are three shifts in schools. We restored the facilities, but after that the most difficult part begins - to purchase equipment, to train specialists. We need to develop the main directions of the economy, ”he said at the budget meeting.
Commenting on Kadyrov’s statement and the budget theme, the press secretary of the Russian president, Dmitry Peskov, used the expression “substance”.
"This is a topic of argumentation, this question is not simply related to the interest of one subject of the Russian Federation, it is a question of the country's general budget, a rather complicated substance, where all aspects should be taken into account, which, in fact, will occur in the State Duma," the press secretary quotes Interfax.

In general, it is necessary to stop the situation. Take the civil servants. A person with the same position, duties, if he lives in Moscow and the region, then the difference in salaries is several times. As a result, everyone rushes to the capital, and Muscovites as residents of another planet. Or am I wrong?
230 million and censorship
This week was made a sensational statement by K. A. Raikin about the “censorship” in Russia: “... I am very worried - I think, like you all - those phenomena that occur in our life. These, so to speak, assaults on art, on theater, in particular. These are completely lawless, extremist, arrogant, aggressive, hiding behind the words about morality, about morality, and in general with all sorts of, so to speak, good and lofty words: “patriotism”, “Motherland” and “high morality”.
Why not even submit to censorship? Whose money?
According to media reports, in 2016, the Satirikon Theater, headed by Konstantin Arkadyevich, received more than 230 million rubles from the budget! It means that Konstantin Arkadyevich needs to keep his mouth shut. And do what they say.
As economists say, the market is simple but tough. Put performances without budget funding. Based on market self-sufficiency and profitability. Will this theater, consuming such sums, remain afloat? Clearly not. Is censorship really to blame?

In general, once again I am convinced of the corruption of our so-called "intelligentsia". After all, you see what names are: Makarevich, Akhedzhakova, Basilashvili, Rogovtseva, Rotaru, Kikabidze, Raikin, Efremov, etc. Notice, all the fry-ups of the "scoop" they hate, so here's the paradox. In this very "scoop" with "cruellest" censorship and total "bloody gebn" these figures (let's call them that) made great films that, unlike modern ones, I want and I want to watch, composed songs that the whole country listened to. Why were masterpieces created in the “bloody totalitarian scoop”, and now one shit, wrapped in a wrapper “the artist sees it so”? And how much is he "an artist"? And who inspired him in general that he was an “artist,” and even “ingenious”? When I see our so-called "bohemia", "elite", discussing another masterpiece a la Kandinsky, Malevich and others like them, or as a degenerate drug addict who imagines himself an artist, nails his genitals to the next fence, he begins to feel sick. I immediately recall the fairy tale "The Naked King". This is the most accurate description of the orgy that is going on in them. This disgusting, bydlyatsky in all respects, community of "artists" who consider themselves intellectuals, and you yourself know the people by whom, it's time to destroy or escort out of the country. No wonder that during the troubles and revolutions, the people first of all dealt with just such figures. Already got "artists".
Yesterday Medinovsky was looking at Solovyov, he also gave ... money, I don’t interfere in censorship ... especially after the incident with the Mannerheim board.
No, gentlemen, "artists", either live on their own personal account, or the state gives money, but at the same time introduces strict censorship! Otherwise we will destroy ourselves, with such a "culture"!
Era robots-killers
Whoever wins the presidential election in the United States, he will have to despise diplomacy and start a war with Russia. Journalists and analysts hint at this in their materials, believing that after the elections, Washington will advance with “aggressive politics”. What war will begin? Nuclear? No, military experts are predicting an era of killer robots. Thousands of quadcopters with on board explosives will fly into the air. In such a reality, humanity will be in two years.
Obviously, Western analysts, military and computer science professors have decided on the unenviable future that awaits the unfortunate planet.
Since diplomacy in the United States turned into a formal institution, needed only to call for peace after the war, it is Washington’s “aggressive policy” that will become the prologue to the start of the third world war in which the United States, Russia and China can clash.
In view of the fact that no one wants to start a nuclear war, and also because the technologies drones are rapidly developing and improving, a new war will be fought with the help of flocks of quadrocopters and similar means that recognize and destroy people, tanks and even ships "automatically", that is, without human intervention.
American commanders without fear and reproach of conscience will send such flocks to the attack: there is no risk to people's lives.

Right! We wrote a report on the dismissal.
Something like that.
