Katyn is an instrument of ideological, informational, hybrid warfare

51
One of historical events, which are actively discussed in our country and abroad (primarily in Poland), are associated with events in the area of ​​the village of Katyn, Smolensk region. A huge number of controversies, legends and outright black myths circulate around the Katyn events of many years ago - so many that the reconstruction of a real historical picture now plays a very important role.





They tried to understand the situation in the next issue on the Day TV channel, where Aleksey Plotnikov, doctor of historical sciences, became a guest. Professor Plotnikov is one of the leading experts in Russia on the issue of Katyn events.

Alexey Plotnikov:

Katyn is an instrument of ideological, informational, hybrid warfare. Katyn theme is important for our enemies weapons to destroy the integrity of our consciousness.

At the end of the 80, as Professor Plotnikov notes, it was precisely the destruction of consciousness among the citizens of our country. On such subjects as “crimes of the Stalinist regime in Katyn” a whole ideological line was built, which led to the fact that many people simply stopped loving their country. A complex of guilt was instilled into the consciousness, the need to constantly repent and abandon one’s past.
Reflections of Professor Aleksey Plotnikov on the air of “Day TV”, in the program about the Katyn scam:

      According to Polish sources, at least 1920 Russians died in Polish camps in 80000. So, it doesn’t matter who shot the Poles: what measure you take - that’s how you will be measured.

          According to the results of the war with Poland in 1920. Thanks to Tukhachevsky’s military talent, about 160 thousand were captured. Only half of this amount returned home. Mortality in Polish camps was no lower than in Hitler's.

      We, ordinary citizens, definitely do not need it, but for the ruling in Russia, a pack of offshore maggots, it is extremely necessary! Indeed, despite all the contradictions between Putin and his Polish counterpart Duda, in the fight against the memory of a truly glorious Soviet past, they are loyal allies to each other.

      Hunter 2 I'm sure that the Nazis shot.

      Main Military Prosecutor's Office - The Main Military Prosecutor's Office classified all materials on the Katyn case, without bringing them to court. It was the documents that Mr. Shakhrai used in the Constitutional Court in the KPSS case on Katyn that were recognized as fake and were not considered by the court. It is also interesting that Germany did not even try to support Goebbels's version. She was silent - as she took water in her mouth. And what is more surprising, from Poland, which most of all shouts about the "bloody NKVD", there was not a single official statement about the refusal of the GVP to transfer materials on Katyn to the Court! In general, no matter how strained the gentlemen (former comrades), all the steam went back to GUDOK.

            Although I’m sure that the Poles were shot by the Germans, I must agree with the commentator above. In principle, we had the full moral right to shoot them for the atrocities that they committed to our prisoners. And indeed, for all the evil that Poland has brought us throughout our joint history, we had every right to destroy them almost without exception. In 1945, we had exactly the same right to do everything with Germany and its people, up to and including complete destruction. But we are Russians, we have a wide soul, we are compassionate over those whom we defeated. Therefore, instead of destroying the German people, who by the way were still mostly Nazi-minded, we fed them from the field kitchens, often taking them off from us, but giving them to the German children so that when they grow up they safely forget who they really owe their lives to.
            But nothing, we are not vindictive, we just have a long memory, someday let’s remember the Poles, the Germans, and every kolyamsurengoy too, they will answer for everything at once.

          The Katyn case was closed in 2004. And classified. Obviously, the successors of Yeltsin's rule of power had something to hide, but rotten and corrupt government can hide nothing. During the exhumation of corpses, the GVP discovered steel casings produced by the Gekko company (for the Walter pistol). The Gekko company switched to the production of such casings after Hitler's order in July ... 1941. The exhumation was attended by representatives of the Polish prosecutor's office, as well as a bunch of all "democratic" trash, when it is simply impossible to hide information. And the picture is typical for modern Russia: everything is clear, but it is impossible to prove. Here in this video, the historian refers to circumstantial evidence, knowing that there is direct and non-killing, but it cannot be officially appealed to, it is forbidden. On the internet there is a photo of both these casings and Walter pistols found in the graves (Soviet soldiers were criminally liable for weapons). I mean, sometimes you have to make a decision yourself whether to put a "bullet", or wait for someone to put it.

            The issue of the weapons used during the executions of Polish prisoners of war arose during the exhumation of the graves of victims of massacres carried out by the German commission in 1943. In the report of the German commission of G. Butts 1943 it was indicated:

            [i] Pistol ammunition of this brand, used in Katyn, has been manufactured at the Gustav Genschow & Co. factory for many years. AG in Durlach near Karlsruhe (Baden). The clarification received from the company [2] indicates changes in the marking of pistol cartridge cases over the past ten to fifteen years. The marking of the cartridges found in Katyn allows us to confidently conclude that the ammunition used for the execution was manufactured in Durkhlakh in 1922-31 years. [/I]

                Weapons, bullets and cartridges are the most reliable proof in any crime. If the Germans fabricated evidence, then of course they would have found a couple of thousand rounds of ammunition from the TT, by 1943 they had this good. It is simply unbelievable that the Germans didn’t take this into account.

Maybe because, for example, Polish zholner practiced cutting techniques on Soviet prisoners of war? And this is a war crime, and after the disintegration (liquidation) of the state of Poland, many of these "heroes" ended up in the development of our law enforcement agencies. And what do you want to do with such zholneers? There, pure water is the highest measure, I do not even understand, why the heck would we be ashamed of shooting Polish war criminals ?! Although it is very vague about who exactly shot them. You can just remember that there are songs about the bloody Stalinist regime, he killed everyone, only one remained. The truth is not to understand in any way - since everyone was killed, who is running at the parades of veterans of the SS troops in Ukraine and in the Triboltik? It means that not everyone was found there and shot in 60 years after the war, but in Poland everyone was killed in a year ...

    Yes, there are no "disputes, legends and outright black myths" here. There are 3-4 badly slapped fakes. Dot. There is nothing else. Everything else that is, from bullet holes in the skulls to the bunker built by the Nazis, irrefutably testifies that the Poles were shot by the Germans.

    This is very important for us. You should not give trump cards to Polish propaganda. This was important during the war. Because during the hostilities there was also an information war. During the war, a film was released where the USA, Great Britain and the USSR exhumed and, as corpses, was an unambiguous conclusion was made. The shooting was carried out by the Germans.

      No joint exhumation of the corpses of the USSR, the USA and Great Britain was carried out. Not a single person from among the allies was invited to the Burdenko commission, even the Poles from the Polish Army who fought on our side.
      One day, foreign journalists were brought to the excavation site. One of them, Sunday Times correspondent Edmund Stevenson later recalled:
      "Nikolai Burdenko, an outstanding Soviet surgeon, accompanied us. His thankless, not to say impossible, task was to convince us that the Germans were responsible for this massacre. Burdenko and his assistants, no doubt, were instructed, but their messages seemed strained and unconvincing "

    On such subjects as “crimes of the Stalinist regime in Katyn” a whole ideological line was built, which led to the fact that many people simply stopped loving their country. A complex of guilt was instilled into the consciousness, the need to constantly repent and abandon one’s past

      Well, yes, the case of the Khrushchev-tagged-drunk lives and thrives on the lush growth of terry Russophobia. And the Kremlin didn’t hit a finger to pinch the tail of this Russophobia at least somewhere in the world.

        How to pinch your tail, if on your knees you crawl and pour mud on the country that you raised and defended by the oath?

    From the memorandum of the Polish embassy in Moscow to the Soviet government of May 19, 1942:
    "... Although the Soviet authorities have exact lists of former Polish prisoners of war who, for an unknown reason for the Polish side, cannot return to the battlefield, meeting Soviet wishes and to facilitate the search for the missing, General Sikorsky, Commander-in-Chief and Chairman of the Council of Ministers of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and the commander of the Polish armed forces in the USSR, General Anders, on March 18, 1942, handed the lists requested by it to the Soviet side.
    The above lists with great difficulty were compiled from the memory of the few former prisoners of war from Kozelsk, Starobelsk and Ostashkov, who, for one reason or another, managed to escape the fate of the officers taken out of these camps in 1940.

    ... None of these people have yet returned to the ranks of the army, no one has made themselves felt. "

    On June 13, 1942, the Polish embassy sends a new note to the Soviet government, which, inter alia, states:

    "... In a number of negotiations with high-ranking representatives of the USSR authorities, the issue of the release of the military who were in the camps Kozelsk, Starobelsk and Ostashkov was raised. These camps were liquidated in 1940, and the prisoners of war were taken out in an unknown direction in April and May of the same year. and every trace of them has been lost. ”The NKID has not yet provided the embassy with any explanations on this matter.
    ... The Embassy of the Rzecz Pospolita will be extremely obliged for the soonest possible answer on the issue of former prisoners of war from the camps Kozelsk, Starobelsk and Ostashkov, especially since 30 months have passed since the conclusion of the agreement of July 1941, 10 ... "

    What I’m now writing about the USSR, I heard back in 60 years on different radio voices. A big request. Write in your own words. And you are unlearned from some kind of literature. Otherwise, you become hostages to the ideology in which you generally will not believe in anything. This is probably the main goal of this bacchanalia.

      "Write in your own words. And not learned from some literature."

      Nobody writes historical documents in their own words, they simply quote them, which was done.
      And about "your words" ... You wrote above in your own words about the fact that the USA, Great Britain and the USSR carried out a joint exhumation of the Katyn corpses - and it turned out that you were simply misleading the respectable public. And if they cited a document, there would be at least some benefit.
