Results of the week. How to undermine the legitimacy of Putin?
Europe today is not very similar to yesterday's Europe. The waves of migrants from Asia and Africa literally in one decade broke the calm and measured regime of the indigenous people of the continent, which they enjoyed in the last quarter of the twentieth century. And what awaits Europe tomorrow is still hard to imagine.
Why such a humble question? If we talk about the return of the entire mother planet. Russia cannot possibly agree to anything less. For it is not in vain that we, after all, elect American presidents, attack with hovering drones not only smartphones of NATO soldiers, but also the same drones - Ukrainian warehouses with sober guards.

"... Residents of Moscow, constrained by the housing crisis, will rush to your magnificent city. The capital automatically goes to Vasyuki. The government moves here. Vasyuki is renamed to New Moscow, and Moscow to Old Vasyuki. Leningradians and Kharkiv residents gnash their teeth, but nothing they can do it. New Moscow is becoming the most elegant center of Europe, and soon the whole world. ”“ Of the whole world !!! ”the stunned Vasiukans groaned.“ Yes! And then the Universe ... "
Everything, we go to feed a bear
An unexpected continuation of an old conversation. So why are Russians so illogical at war? West knows the answer
The idea that we are different from Europeans has always existed in Europe. Almost since the birth of Russian statehood. That is, the author does not claim American exclusivity in this matter. The Americans got their attitude towards Russia in the "legacy". In principle, it is difficult to argue with this fact. Yes, and not worth it. We are really difficult for the West.
Yes it is clear. Well, we are illogical. Unpredictable. This is like Sunday - it would be necessary to uncover a bear to walk, and uncover the balalaika - en-no, we hang on “VO”.
Good people, well, have the same conscience - clubfoot is not fed, the hydrogen bomb in the cellar suppressed all the potatoes, and you again for the comments, and for the comments. Well, well, nadot, so that the idea of the enemy about us does not blur ...

In 2014, the Internet began to walk the movie "I am a Russian occupier." In my opinion, in this video quite briefly and succinctly stated our philosophy of life. Of course, the Russian soul is much more multifaceted and more complicated, but if you briefly describe, then this video is the most. And yet, there is a wonderful movie "Three hundred is not necessary, one is enough." Here, too, everything is clear and clear, WHO WE ARE AND WHY WE ARE NOT AFRAID OF THE WEST!
In my opinion, these videos can explain the concept of the Russian soul, BUT only we can understand it again, because for us this is normal, it is a way of life and thinking. For the West, it will still be alien and not clear. We are mentally different and we will never understand each other. Who would not sing from our liberals about the proximity of us and the West, all this is a lie! We are not the West, but we are not the East in its pure form, although I, frankly, the East is much closer than the West. But we are something between East and West, we have our own civilization that is not similar to anyone!
You can’t understand Russia with your mind, you can’t measure it with a yardstick
She has a special status, you can only believe in Russia ...
And all these Western analysts want to say, read your own politicians and military of the past, they understood something about Russia, especially when they got good lyuly here ...

Being in the chemical laboratory and wanting to drink, you drink the first unsigned flask with a clear liquid? I think being a rational person is not.
It makes no sense to have a conversation with a Bulgarian, not knowing that the gestures "yes" and "no" are exactly the opposite of ours. In almost all articles devoted to the problem of misunderstandings with the West, we consider ourselves to be deceived. Gorbachev agreed (on the stairs on the way to the buffet table) about not advancing NATO, but we were deceived. They offered a partnership, but they keep on the sidelines - they deceived me again.
With some analysis, it turns out that
a) We did not bother to find out the rules of the game with a partner
b) We stand with a mysterious look and at the same time periodically “roll out” the claims
And, I draw your attention, the West always appears in a derogatory light: immorality and the fall of the foundations are completely, and we are carriers of the Truth. Yes, even if so (partly indeed). So what?
We show our arrogant attitude. So what are we waiting for? How do we look from their side? Representatives of the collapsed USSR with a raw (and not the most successful) economy with a high level of corruption are bending their fingers while talking about their mysterious mission.
We are trying to sell them resources (so far successfully), we are following them for technology. This we have to play on their territory. And for this you need to know their rules of the game.
And any propaganda of arrogance under various sauces including the "mysterious Russian soul" will not lead to anything good if we want to achieve a result. Let there be a mysterious soul, but not so mysterious as to frighten.

Our secrets. Only ts-s-s-s ...
On the last day of September, the Daily Star, famous for its love for sensations, published an article by Tom Towers with the eerie name “Russia developing secret weapon 'MORE POWERFUL than nuclear bomb'” - “Russia is developing a secret weapon, more powerful than a nuclear bomb. ”The heading immediately made it clear what area the publication was affecting, and also transparently hinted at the most terrible consequences of the events described.
And we say this to you: Russia is not only developing, but already developing a secret weapon. Is it not so? Cubans they already staff the American embassy on Liberty Island jammed. It was also used in the USA last November, when a high-frequency electromagnetic impulse forced American voters to put a tick in front of the Trump name and drop ballots into the ballot box. And with this top-secret weapon, Russia can influence the Baltic countries so that among them migrant youth leave for Germany and Ireland as guest workers, and the people with the social responsibility of the super-light Gr-SL class “gribauskite-superlight” remain in power.

This is another thing, batteries can be changed and it is possible to burn enemy soldiers across the globe.
Who will stumble on C-400?
Destruction or ousting from the airspace of the prospective unmanned high-speed reconnaissance aircraft SR-72 within the European part of Russia will be carried out much easier and faster than in the northern part of Siberia, where difficult climatic conditions and vast expanses impede the deployment of an adequate number of anti-aircraft missile brigades armed with new generation C-300B4, C-400 and C-500 complexes. It is possible that this very unprotected part of the aerospace space of Russia will force to revive and modernize such an important project of ultra-long-range air combat missiles, such as the KS-172СXNNXX.
How loudly the descendant of Blebird about C-400 stumbles is an interesting question. It is especially interesting in terms of a high degree of interest in the "Triumphs" from the Turks and Saudis. The Turks have already made an advance payment, and the Saudis did Dmitry Medvedev just as your “Excellency” decided to call it. Well, not "excellency", of course ... But, apparently, they consider that they have already spoken a couple of launchers.

Greedy for gifts
September 29 The National Interest published in the Buzz section an article by military analyst Nicholas J. Myers titled “S-400, New Cruise Missile Cruise Missiles and not only: how the Russian army returns to a big way "). The topic of this publication is the latest Russian developments in the field of weapons and equipment used in recent joint exercises.

"Alabuga" does not forgive ...
We remember the last few days of the update as a real information explosion. news tapes of the leading Russian mass media, which, with their usual speed, notified observers about the development of a unique tactical missile under the Alabuga program, equipped with an ultra-high-frequency electromagnetic warhead.
Yes, powerful rivalry. And so how powerful is it on paper. It was on paper that the American "partners" would have been more profitable than the victory of "Alabuga". In this case, you can get from the old McCain and the whole congress to get some money for the cut. Corruption in the USA? No, not heard ...

The colonel passed away
Commander of the 61st Separate Kirkenes Marine Brigade of the Northern fleet, Colonel Valery Fedyanin, who took part in the operation of the Russian army in Syria, died in the hospital. Burdenko. This was reported by the Severpost agency.
This is in continuation of the discussion of the topic of why the representatives of the command of the Russian military contingent were on the front line. The basic version is certainly not for personal participation in the conduct of hostilities, but for the conduct of the negotiation process, with which we were once again thrown. They threw "in partnership" ... Condolences to the families and friends of the combat colonel-marines.

Ukrainian expert fortified
From the material of the Ukrainian "expert":
“Putin thinks that, having stuffed the Donbass with equipment and weapons, he will keep the territory. Another reason for this "iron saturation" is the panic phobia of the Kremlin, that our troops will go on the offensive and chase this semblance of troops towards the Russian border. "

Not urgent in the room. Kiev idea "fixed" became a reality
So, briefly, summing up all the statements of Ukrainian experts: Vladimir Putin, to his 65 anniversary, became so panicked by the Ukrainian army in the Donbas that, together with Sergei Shoigu, hastily (in the courtyard of the Novo-Ogaryovo residence) knocked out an improvised drone and using the remote control from the TV set, he sent Ukrainian warehouses with thermobaric ammunition of incredible concrete-breaking force at ultra-low altitude. The Ukrainian servicemen at the arsenals near Kharkiv and Vinnitsa, who had not had time to sleep in the morning, personally saw Putin’s drone, which, having made two strokes with a wing, otbombili at hypersonic speed, and then at a speed of up to 0,9, the speed of light departed towards the Russian border.

Russian "took" Syria from the West
While the Americans are provoking provocations for the Russian military in Syria, foreign experts assure the world that Moscow has taken Syria from the West. There was no one to wait for Russians, Assad himself, and he was surprised. Therefore, Russia will have to "pay" for Syria.
Otherwise, the operation in Syria is estimated by Russian experts. The first thing that catches your eye is the specifics of the ratings.
The Moscow edition of the Federal News Agency held a round table on the second anniversary of the start of the Russian military campaign in the UAR. The counter-terrorist operation of the Russian troops in two years led to a fundamental change in the distribution of forces in Syria. A. Leonkov, a military expert, one of the leaders of the magazine Arsenal of the Fatherland, with reference to the data of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, recalled that during these two years more than 30.000 combat sorties were carried out and 90.000 was attacked on militants. The contribution of the VKS RF is estimated at 55% of the destroyed equipment and infrastructure of the gangs.
Russian in Syria did not wait, "even Assad himself was surprised"
Russia and Syria: not just a military operation
It was not necessary to let the Russians to Syria: analysts object!
Obviously, the views of foreign and Russian experts are essentially the opposite: in Russia they talk about the destruction of terrorists, abroad they tend to accuse Moscow almost of invading Syria and achieving their own goals there, which is what Assad himself was surprisingly surprised by. Hence the logic: the Russians will have to "pay" for Syria! After all, it was they who destroyed it: Russian aircraft caused great damage, “everybody knows it” (opinion of one of the foreign experts). The American coalition is depicted as the savior of Syria from terrorism and even the savior of Assad.
It probably won’t surprise anyone (and Assad too) that the United States will be listed on the pages of American textbooks on recent history as the main winner in the war with the Islamic State (prohibited in Russia).

Is it still useful to them?
6 November 2016 of the SDF (Syrian Democratic Forces) announced the launch of Operation Anger of the Euphrates to liberate the city of Raqqi. Since then, almost a year has passed, and the resistance of the IS groups in their capital has not been broken. The official explanation for this strange fact is: “We don’t want many civilians to die”. In fact, according to Yuri Podolyak, Washington is simply not in a hurry to destroy the “IS”, which may still be useful to them.
Sooner or later, "IG" will be crushed. However, the defeat of these militants, alas, will not be the end of the civil war in Syria. It will be necessary to solve the Kurdish problem.
The US is set to create Kurdistan. But will Damascus agree on the terms of Washington? Hardly.

Smile Minister Lavrov
The smile of Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov does not bode well for his colleague, US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson. Moscow again beat Washington in the Middle East! Initially, Turkey, then Qatar, and now one of the last pillars of the United States, Saudi Arabia, represented by King Salman Ben Abdel Aziz al-Saud, came to pay homage to the new regional chef Vladimir Putin.
The king did not visit Russia to see the world and show itself, but because his kingdom has no other choice. Saudi Arabia, crushed on all external fronts and facing a big battle for the throne, wants peace!

USA and China: Joint Plans for Half a Century
More than two hundred politicians, businessmen and scientists from the United States and China met at Columbia University. They called their event pretentiously: "The think tank forum: relations for the next fifty years." In New York, they began to form an official course towards a union of two states, called upon to determine the future world order. This is supported by the fact that the Chinese delegation was headed by Vice Premier of the State Council of China, a member of the Politburo of the CPC Central Committee Liu Yandong. On the American side, political partner, former US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, became her partner. In his opening speech, Mr. Kissinger outlined the purpose of the forum: “The United States and China urgently need to work together to raise the level of our relations from pragmatism and solving everyday problems ... Our task is to find a way to combine American exclusivity and the“ Chinese dream ”, which will create a new world order for the good of all. "
In the development of the theme: the article “South China Morning Post” (Hong Kong) published material Cary Huang (Cary Huang), in which the author expresses the following opinion: the rivalry between China and Russia with the United States will not turn Beijing and Moscow into allies. Hardly Russian and Chinese will support a long-term union!
Having behind it periods of “mutual suspicion, periodic hostility”, as well as “historical grievances and sacrifices” along with “conflicting national interests”, the two “major powers in Eurasia” are unlikely to create a “long-term strategic alliance” like NATO, Mr. Huian believes .
The author refers to the story, full of more examples of misunderstanding and hostility, rather than fraternity and friendship. He moves from past events to the present time, hinting that Moscow does not care about the Taiwan issue and Chinese interests in the seas, and Beijing is not concerned about the Ukrainian crisis or about affairs in Syria.
What is this, in fact, a strategic alliance?

This summit shows only that America, despite Trump's pretentious slogans, that he will restore the US economy, has little chance against China continuing to swell. More precisely, no chance. And they begin to tack - this is how the sentence “to rule the world for a couple” is interpreted.
I have no doubt that this proposal has a number of conditions, and one of them is aimed at destroying China’s ties with Russia. The gap with Russia will certainly weaken China’s position and weaken Russia’s position very much.
But I don't think the Chinese are so stupid. They are even worse than the Anglo-Saxons know how to tack. The self-confident West imagines that it will surpass the East in a political trick. Yes Yes...
So the talk about the "drift" is greatly exaggerated, although, of course, practical Chinese in relations with Russia will play this American card.

Southerners can also subside
Nuclear scientists and DPRK rocket engineers are making amazingly quick successes. Against the background of their tests and progress in technology about the nuclear bomb, they were also thinking in South Korea. I have three options:
1. Placement of American nuclear weapons in the country.
2. Development of Seoul's own missile program.
3. Intermediate option (with some reliance on the international community). More precisely, based on the United States, which in global politics quite often replaces the “global community”. Anthony Cordesman, a staff member at the Center for Strategic and Defense Studies (Washington), assumes that the United States should not only think about deploying nuclear weapons in South Korea, but also give Seoul the opportunity to get its own nuclear bomb.
Media: North Korea has a shock tools that are not amenable to the imagination.
It is impossible not to take into account the possibility of Seoul developing its own nuclear weapons, but, most likely, the Americans will deliver their own weapons to South Korea, thus achieving two goals: sending an ultimatum "signal" to Kim Jong-un and reassuring Seoul of strong allied relations. In the end, after his ominous statements at the UN General Assembly and on Twitter to North Korea, Mr. Trump will have to take some obvious actions: otherwise the allies on the planet will no longer understand him.
If Trump does nothing, and Seoul in one and a half years, despite the danger of UN sanctions, creates its own nuclear weapons, Japan and other regional states will follow the example of South Koreans. The baton will be picked up, of course, in Iran and Saudi Arabia. And the global nuclear arms race will begin ...

Catalan question: what's next?
The European Commission recognized the holding of the referendum in Catalonia as legitimate, adding at the same time that it favors the territorial unity of Spain. In Brussels, they appealed to official Madrid and the Catalan authorities to resolve such issues at the negotiating table, and not at the level of tough confrontation.
Serbian authorities have responded to the statements of the European Commission regarding the independence referendum held in Catalonia. The Serbian government noted that after such statements from Brussels, the European Union, by definition, should decide to withdraw recognition of Kosovo’s independence. Serbian Foreign Minister Ivica Dacic noted that, calling the actions of Catalonia unilateral, the European Commission actually recognizes the illegality of attempts to secession of Kosovo from Serbia.
Spain / Catalonia: diverging, the show "Square" will not
Who and why 40 years ago began to prepare Catalonia for independence
Donbass not Catalonia!
Obviously, Belgrade is trying to point out to the European Union its double standards, in which the EU has confused itself, as it formulates clearly ambiguous assessments of events.
Of course, the statements of Belgrade will not prevent Brussels from ignoring the position of Serbia in the future. Alas, the voice of Serbia in the European Union has no power.
As for Catalonia and Spain, many Western experts came to the unanimous opinion: democracy ended on both sides. There are even special conclusions: they say, on the ballot in Catalonia ... Russians have won.

New sad "record" in the USA
The name of the next American shooter who shot a lot of people is Stephen Paddock. He was 64 of the year.
The victims of their shooting in Las Vegas were 59 people. More than half a thousand people were injured.
According to Sheriff T.R. Fasulo, the newly-born fighter had 42 firearms, of which 23 at the Mandalay Bay Hotel, from where he fired, and nineteen in the house in Mesquite (75 miles to north east of las vegas).
Having executed the execution, the murderer committed suicide.
S. Paddock established a new bloody anti-record in the “gunshot” history of the United States. 59 killed, more than five hundred wounded. The stations did not have time to take blood from donors.
Prior to Paddock, the anti-record belonged to Omar Matin, who opened fire at the gay club Pulse in Orlando, Florida. That massacre happened last June. Extremist Matin killed a 49 man and injured 53.
Alas, the widespread use of firearms in the United States is in itself a pretext for its use. There are weapons - there are arrows. Nightmare tragedies in the United States do not stop.
Forty-two units in the home arsenal, shops full of ammunition and explosives probably mean an abnormal human passion for weapons. Stephen Paddock was a licensed hunter, but that terrible day came when he directed his weapons against people.

That is, it is possible to turn a semi-automatic detachment into a combat automatic for 10 dollars, replacing a small piece of hardware. Yes, this is a violation of the law, but after 56 corpses and almost 600 wounded animals, this is such an insignificant trifle ...

Weapons, even automatic ones, purchased officially in stores before the 1986 of the year, can be automatic.
Weapons purchased on the used market are not controlled in any way.
And now, at this moment, John’s private trader can buy the 16 of the year 1976, which was officially bought before 1986, from some Steve’s private trader, absolutely legally and without problems.

Ten leading western minds: how to undermine Putin’s legitimacy
"How to tame Putin." On this subject, expressed their views "ten best minds" of the United States and Europe. These experts specialize in security. They told Politico magazine what to do with Russia. Here is their plan:
1. Ukraine should be protected from Putin. The West needs help to make Ukraine a European country. A Europeanized Ukraine “will undermine Putin’s legitimacy within Russia,” whose people will resent “authoritarian government and kleptocratic economy” against the backdrop of a prosperous westernized Ukraine.
2. Ukraine can be given a "junior status" in the European Union.
3. We need to continue to economically "put pressure" on Russia through sanctions.
4. March 2018 of the Year is a key moment for Putin. He will need to make strategic decisions. If Putin “wants to modernize the Russian economy and reduce its dependence on oil, gas and mining,” he will have such an opportunity at the beginning of a new term. Therefore, after the elections, the West must identify the appropriate "signals" from Putin, who wishes to have "more effective" relations with the West. The key sign will be the candidacy of the Prime Minister: will this person be inclined towards modernization?
5. The US government should involve the private sector to combat Russian cyber threats.
6. In the US, it is necessary to conduct “cybergenic campaigns” (frequent change of passwords, prohibition to click on attachments in letters, etc.).
7. The best way to fight the Russian information war is additional information. NATO and the EU should expand their efforts to identify, analyze and refute Russian disinformation. “Protection is exposing.”
As we see, the plan is extremely simple, completely open and includes a number of points, according to which Putin's Russia is treated as an authoritarian state of kleptocrats with an underdeveloped economy, dependent on the prices of raw materials. It is easy to tame commodity Putin: it is enough to tell him who to appoint as prime minister and which reforms to modernize.
