Another look at the history of Russia
The war against Russia has been going on for a very long time and very, very successfully. Of course, not on the battlefields, where we have always beaten everyone and it is very painful, but where the West has always won and continues to win - in information wars. The main goal is to prove to the inhabitants of our country that they are stupid, brainless rednecks, not even second-rate, but somewhere 6-7 discharge, without past and future. And he has practically proved it - even the authors of many patriotic articles agree with this approach entirely.
Examples? You are welcome!
Example 1. Recently, we celebrated the 1000 anniversary of Russia. And when did it actually appear? The first capital (only the capital of a large country!), The city of Slovensk, was founded in 2409 BC (3099 year from the creation of the world); The source of information is the chronicle of the Holy Monastery on the Mologa River, the chronograph of Academician M.H. Tikhomirov, "Notes on Muscovy" by S. Herberstein, "The Tale of Sloven and Ruse", which is widely known and recorded by many ethnographers. Since it is believed that Novgorod was built on the site of Slovenska, I pestered the leading excavations of archaeologists, as far as plausible. Literally, they answered me like this: “But hell knows. We have already got to the Paleolithic sites there. ”
Example 2. It is believed that somewhere in the 8 century, wild, brainless and worthless Slavs wandering the woods called Viking Rurik to themselves and said: “Own us, oh great European superman, and we are idiots, nothing can not". (Free textbook presentation on stories). In fact, Rurik is the grandson of the Prince of Gostomysl of Novgorod, the son of his daughter Umila and one of the neighboring princes of smaller rank. He was called along with his brothers, because all 4 Son Gostomysl died or died in wars. He was accepted by persuasion with the elders, and he worked very hard to earn respect in Russia. Source: Ioakimovskaya chronicle, Russian history by Tatishchev, "Brockhaus and Efron", etc.
Example 3. The opinion is spread everywhere that the Roman Empire, the model of legality and morality, was almost the only civilization of the past. In general, the gladiatorial battles of Rome, that the modern indulgence of the marauders in Iraq is one field of berries. The morality of the Western world has not changed much, and continues to cause disgust in the "savages", such as Russian, Chinese and Dagestanis.
The official history: the great, beautiful and mighty Roman civilization fell under the blows of stinking, shaggy savages. In fact, sick and tired of all (as Americans now) geeks were sanitized by more decent neighbors. Golozadaya and bare-legged, poorly armed Roman infantry (open a textbook on the history of the ancient world, and admire the legionnaires) were worn down in katafrakariyami clad in steel from the tops of horses. The main source of information is “The cataphracts and their role in the history of military art” A.M. Khazanov. (I don’t remember the rest, but those who wish can search the autosearch themselves. There is a lot of material - they just don’t let him go to school. “Harmful”).
The most interesting thing is where did the Huns come from to “clean up” Rome? Ob, Ugra, Volga, Urals, Azov ... Graves with partial armament of catapractaries found in Dagestan. Have you, patriot comrades, looked at the map for a long time? So where did the Huns go to Rome? Why is "wild Russia" in Europe called Gardarik - the Country of Cities? Now it does not matter, because we are celebrating 1000 years of Russia with joyful faces, we consider Rurik the host who came from Norway, who founded Russia, and even, like, are proud of such a story.
Millennium 4 sent to the dog's tail, cheekily fucking like uninteresting - and no dog even blinked.
1: 0 in favor of the West.
The second goal against the Russian fools. In the 8 century, one of the Russian princes nailed a shield to the gates of Constantinople, and it is difficult to assert that Russia did not exist even then. Therefore, in the coming centuries, long-term slavery was planned for Russia. The existence of the Mongol-Tatars and 3 centuries of submission and humility. What is marked this era in reality? We will not deny the Mongol yoke, but ... As soon as Russia became aware of the existence of the Golden Horde, the young guys immediately went there to ... pillage the Mongols who came from rich China to Russia. The best described are Russian raids of the 14 century (if someone has forgotten, the period from 14 to 15 is considered to be a yoke).
In 1360, the Novgorod boys fought along the Volga to the Kama mouth, and then stormed the large Tatar city of Zhukotin (Djuketau near the modern city of Chistopol). Having seized countless riches, the ears went back and began to “drink up zipuns” in the city of Kostroma. From 1360 to 1375, the Russians made eight large trips to the middle Volga, not counting minor raids. In 1374, the Novgorodians took the city of Bolgar for the third time (near Kazan), then went down and took Sarai himself, the capital of the Great Khan.
In 1375, Smolensk guys on seventy boats under the leadership of the governor Prokop and Smolyanin moved down the Volga. By tradition, they made a “visit” to the cities of Bolgar and Saray. Moreover, the rulers of the Bolgar, taught by bitter experience, paid off a great tribute, but the Khan's capital, Sarai, was taken by storm and looted. In 1392, ushkuynik again took Zhukotin and Kazan. In 1409, Governor Anfal led 250 ushkuyev to the Volga and Kama. And in general, to beat the Tatars, in Russia it was considered not a feat, but a craft.
During the Tatar “yoke”, the Russians went to the Tatars every 2-3 of the year, the Shed fired dozens of times, and the Tatar women were sold to Europe in hundreds. What did the Tatars do in response? Wrote complaints! In Moscow, in Novgorod. Complaints are preserved. Nothing more "enslavers" could not do. The source of information on the mentioned campaigns - you will laugh, but this is a monograph by the Tatar historian Alfred Khasanovich Khalikov.
They still cannot forgive us of these visits! And at school they still tell how the Russian gray-eyed men wept and gave their girls into slavery - because, like humble cattle. And you, their descendants, also penetrate this thought. Do we have any doubts about the reality of the yoke?
2: 0 in favor of the West.
In the 16 century, Ivan the Terrible came to power. During his reign in Russia:
- jury trial was introduced;
- free primary education (church schools);
- medical quarantine at borders;
- local electoral self-government, instead of governor;
- for the first time the regular army appeared (and the first military uniform in the world was at the archers);
- Tatar raids stopped;
- equality was established between all segments of the population (did you know that serfdom at that time did not exist in Russia at all? The peasant was obliged to sit on the land until he paid for its rent, and nothing more. And his children were considered free from birth, in any case!).
- slave labor is forbidden (source - the lawsuit of Ivan the Terrible);
- The state monopoly on the fur trade, introduced by Grozny, was canceled just 10 (ten!) Years ago.
- The territory of the country is increased by 30 times!
- emigration of the population from Europe exceeded 30 000 families (those who settled along Zasechnaya line were paid lifting 5 rubles per family. Expenditure books were preserved).
- The growth of the welfare of the population (and paid taxes) during the reign amounted to several thousand (!) Percent.
- for all the reign there was not a single executed without trial, the total number of "repressed" was from three to four thousand. (And the times were dashing - remember St. Bartholomew's night).
Now remember what you were told about Grozny at school? That he is a bloody petty tyrant and lost the Livonian war, and Russia was shaking in horror?
3: 0 in favor of the West.
Speaking of stupid Americans as a result of propaganda. Already in the 16 century in Europe, many brochures were published for every brainless man in the street. It was written there that the Russian tsar is a drunkard and a libertine, and all his subjects are the same wild freaks. And in the instructions to the ambassadors it was stated that the king was sober, uncomfortably clever, could not stand drunk categorically, and even banned drinking alcohol in Moscow, as a result of which it was possible to “get drunk” outside the city, in the so-called “liqueurs” (the place where they pour) . Source - study "Ivan the Terrible" Casimir Waliszewski, France. Now guess from three times - which of the two versions is presented in the textbooks?
In general, our textbooks are based on the principle that everything that is said about Russia is vile, this is true. All that is said good or intelligible is a lie.
One example. In 1569, Grozny arrived in Novgorod, which had approximately 40 000 populations. An epidemic was raging there, and it smelled of rebellion. According to the results of the sovereign's stay, the memorial lists that were fully preserved in synodics celebrate 2800 deceased. But Jerome Horsey in "Notes on Russia" indicates that the henchmen cut out 700 000 (seven hundred thousand (?)) People in Novgorod.
Guess which of the two numbers is considered historically accurate?
4: 0 in favor of the West.
Wild Russians cry and wail. And they are constantly being hijacked and dashing Crimean basurmans being driven into slavery. And the Russians are crying and paying tribute. Almost all historians point their fingers at the dullness, weakness and cowardice of the Russian rulers, who could not even cope with the shabby Crimea. And for some reason they "forget" that there was no Crimean Khanate - there was one of the provinces of the Ottoman Empire, in which there were Turkish garrisons and an Ottoman governor sat. Does anyone have a desire to accuse Castro of not being able to capture the tiny American base on his island?
The Ottoman Empire, by this time, was actively expanding in all directions, conquering all the Mediterranean lands, stretching from Iran (Persia) and advancing on Europe, approaching Venice and besieging Vienna. In 1572, the sultan decided to conquer at the same time wild, as European brochures asserted, Muscovy. 120 of thousands of troops moved from the Crimea to the north, with the support of 20 thousands of janissaries and 200 guns.
Near the village of Molodi, the Ottomans encountered the 50-thousandth detachment of voivode Mihail Vorotynsky. And the Turkish army was ... No, not stopped - completely cut out !!!
From this point on, the Ottoman attack on the neighbors stopped - and try to engage in conquest, if you almost halved the army! May God bless the neighbors themselves to fight back. What do you know about this battle? Nothing? That's it! Wait, after 20, about the participation of Russians in World War II will also begin to “forget” in textbooks. After all, all the "progressive humanity" has long been firmly aware - the Americans defeated Hitler. And it is time to correct the “wrong” Russian textbooks in this field.
Information about the battle of Molodyah can be generally classified as closed. God forbid Russian cattle learns that it can also be proud of the acts of ancestors in the Middle Ages! He will develop the wrong self-consciousness, love for the Motherland, for her deeds. And this is wrong. So, it is difficult to find data about the battle at Molody, but it is possible - in specialized reference books. For example, in the "Encyclopedia of Armaments" KIM three lines written.
So, 5: 0 in favor of the West.
Stupid Russian loafers. Remembering the Mongol invasion, I wonder all the time - where did they manage to collect so many sabers? After all, sabers were forged only from the 14 century, and only in Moscow and Dagestan, in Kubachi. Such a strange fork - forever we with Dagestanis unexpectedly get the same. Although, in all the textbooks between us there is always a pair of hostile states listed. Nowhere else in the world have they learned to forge saber - it is a much more complicated art than it might seem.
But progress has come, 17 century. Saber gave way to other weapons. Before the birth of Peter 1 remained quite a bit. What was Russia? If you believe the textbooks, approximately, such as in Tolstoy’s novel “Peter the First” - patriarchal, ignorant, wild, drunk, inert ...
Do you know that it was Russia that armed all of Europe with advanced weapons? Every year, Russian monasteries and foundry yards sold hundreds of cannons there, thousands of muskets, cold weapon. Source - here's a quote from the "Encyclopedia of weapons":
“It is interesting that in the XVI-XVII centuries manufacturers of artillery guns were not only Pushkarsky sovereigns, but also monasteries. For example, a fairly large production of cannons was carried out in the Solovki monastery and in the Kirillov-Belozersky monastery. They owned guns and very successfully used them Don and Zaporozhye Cossacks. The first mention of the use of guns Zaporozhye Cossacks refers to the year 1516. In the XIX-XX centuries in Russia and abroad the opinion was formed that the pre-Peter artillery was technically backward. But here are the facts: in the 1646, the Tula-Kamensk factories supplied Holland with more 600 guns, and in the 1647 year 360 guns of the 4,6 caliber and 8 pounds. In 1675, the Tula-Kamensk factories shipped cast iron cannons, 116 cores, 43892 grenades, 2934 musket trunks, 2356 swords and 2700 iron poods abroad. ”
Here you have a wild backward Russia, about which they say at school.
6: 0 in favor of the West.
By the way, from time to time, I find Russophobes who claim that all the above-mentioned cannot be, since even highly progressive and developed England and France have learned to cast iron only in the 19 century. In such cases, I argue on a bottle of brandy and lead a person to the Artillery Museum in St. Petersburg. One of the cast-iron cannons cast in the 1600 year, there cheekily lies on the stand for public viewing. 3 bottles of brandy in my bar have already accumulated, but I still do not believe. People do not believe that Russia throughout its history and in all respects has overtaken Europe by approximately two centuries. But ...
The conclusions of the loser. Starting from the school years, we are told that our entire history is like a huge cesspool, in which there is not a single bright spot, not a single decent ruler. Either there were no military victories at all, or they led to something bad (the victory over the Ottomans is hidden, like nuclear launch codes, and the victory over Napoleon is duplicated by the slogan Alexander — the gendarme of Europe). Everything that was invented by ancestors is either brought to us from Europe, or simply a baseless myth. The Russian people did not make any discoveries, did not release anyone, and if someone turned to us for help, it was slavery.
And now everyone around has the historical right of Russians to kill, rob, rape. If you kill a Russian person, this is not gangsterism, but a desire for freedom. And the lot of all Russians is to repent, repent and repent.
A little more than a hundred years of information warfare - and we all have already sown a sense of our own inferiority. We are no longer, like ancestors, self-righteous. Look at what is happening with our politicians: they are constantly being justified. Nobody demands that Lord Judah be brought to trial for propaganda of terrorism and cooperation with gangsters - he is persuaded that he is not entirely right.
We threaten Georgia - and do not carry out threats. Denmark spits in our face - and even sanctions are not imposed against it. The Baltic countries have established an apartheid regime - politicians shyly turn away. People demand to allow the sale of weapons for self-defense - they are openly called worthless cretins who, by stupidity, will immediately kill each other.
Why should Russia make excuses? After all, she is always right! Say about this no one else dares.
You think - just the current politicians are so indecisive, but instead of them, others are about to come. But this will not happen EVER. Because the feeling of inferiority is laid not in the post of Minister of Foreign Affairs. It begins to be systematically brought up from childhood, when the child is told: our grandfathers were very stupid, stupid people, incapable of the most elementary solutions. But the kind and intelligent uncle Rurik came to them from Europe, began to own them and teach them. He created for them the state of Russia, in which we live.
Poison, drop by drop, pours into the soul, and when a person leaves school, he is already getting used to looking at the West as a kind owner, more intelligent and developed. And at the words "democracy" begins to rise on the hind legs reflexively.
What the Western world knows best is waging an information war. The blow was dealt to a place that no one had thought to protect - according to the educational program. And the West won. It remains to show a little patience - and our children themselves will crawl on their knees in that direction and will be asked for permission to lick the owners of their shoes. Already crawling - a couple of days ago I managed to see a piece of the transfer “Why does Russia need its own currency?” That's right. Then it will be: "Why do we need an army?". Then: "Why do we need statehood?"
West won. The consignment.
What to do?
If you do not want slaves to be made out of children, you need not to shout that we will fight when the time comes, but to save them right now. The hour has come, the war is almost over for the overwhelming advantage of the enemy. It is urgent to break the course of teaching history, changing the focus of learning on the positive. To my girls, yet, 4 and 5 are years old, but when they go to school, I foresee hard days. Claims for poor teaching are guaranteed. If the historian does not teach children who such an important person in history was as Rurik or does not know about the Molodin battle, then he must pay fines from his own pocket.
And even better, file a lawsuit with the Ministry of Education for spreading false information. Hiring a good lawyer and hurting them to hurt them - let it itch. But I have no money for the “good” one. Weakly throw off in the name of saving the honest name of their ancestors?
The second way to strengthen the position on the fronts of the information war is to demand that the procurators initiate a criminal case into inciting ethnic hatred by teaching false historical information. There are lots of examples. Recall the Tatar yoke. We are told that the Tatars oppressed the Russians, but they do not say that the Russians plundered the Tatars no less famously. As a result, Russians have an insult to their fellow citizens on a racial basis. Moreover, the insult is wrong. We are all good, and behaved exactly the same.
Or, for example, last year in Kazan they celebrated (or tried to celebrate) the day of the memory of the Tatars, who defended the city from Russian troops. There is a clear opposition on a national basis. Although, in fact, the city was taken not by Russians, but by Russian-Tatar (!) Troops. The cover of the Shig-Alei cavalry provided cover for the archery detachments — and if he is German, then I am ready to admit myself to be the Pope. Russian-Tatar troops took Kazan, eliminating the influence of Istanbul on the Volga, and defending civilians from predatory raids, freed tens of thousands of slaves. It is enough to recognize the participation of the Tatars in this noble cause - and the national question loses its urgency.
But I am not a lawyer, and I do not know how to roll a statement in such a way that they will not be dismissed and sent to hell.
By the way, the Dallas plan about inciting national hatred was repeatedly mentioned here. And no one paid attention to how it is implemented. Also at school. Good teachers diligently sow discord between the largest national groups - Russians and Tatars. The whole course of history is pearling about how the Tatars attacked, how the Russians attacked the Tatars, etc. But nowhere is it indicated that the Tatars are our symbiote, the people-partner. Tatar units have always been part of the Russian troops, participated in all Russian wars - both internecine and in battles with an external enemy. It can be said that the Tatars are simply Russian light cavalry. Or Russian - Tatar wrought army. The Tatars fought against Mamai on the Kulikovo Field, together with the Moscow army, the Tatars were the first to attack the enemy in the Swedish and Livonian war; in 1410, the Polish-Russian-Tatar army was crushed by the Crusaders near Grunwald, breaking the back of the Teutonic Order - moreover, it was the Tatars who took the first blow.
Sometimes people ask me why I don’t mention Lithuanians. So I mention - Russian. The Grand Duchy of Lithuania was a Russian state, with the Russian population, who spoke Russian, and even the clerical work was in Russian. And you thought that a small racist country on the Baltic coast was once a great state?
7: 0 in favor of the West.
For four thousand years we lived side by side with the Tatars. They fought, were friends, were related. They smashed the Romans, the Crusaders, the Ottomans, the Poles, the French, the Germans ... And now, our children open a textbook, and they are dripping from every page: enemies, enemies, enemies ... This is legally called inciting national hatred. And in fact - the usual information war.

“It is interesting that in the XVI-XVII centuries manufacturers of artillery guns were not only Pushkarsky sovereigns, but also monasteries. For example, a fairly large production of cannons was carried out in the Solovki monastery and in the Kirillov-Belozersky monastery. They owned guns and very successfully used them Don and Zaporozhye Cossacks. The first mention of the use of guns Zaporozhye Cossacks refers to the year 1516. In the XIX-XX centuries in Russia and abroad the opinion was formed that the pre-Peter artillery was technically backward. But here are the facts: in the 1646, the Tula-Kamensk factories supplied Holland with more 600 guns, and in the 1647 year 360 guns of the 4,6 caliber and 8 pounds. In 1675, the Tula-Kamensk factories shipped cast iron cannons, 116 cores, 43892 grenades, 2934 musket trunks, 2356 swords and 2700 iron poods abroad. ”
Here you have a wild backward Russia, about which they say at school.
6: 0 in favor of the West.
By the way, from time to time, I find Russophobes who claim that all the above-mentioned cannot be, since even highly progressive and developed England and France have learned to cast iron only in the 19 century. In such cases, I argue on a bottle of brandy and lead a person to the Artillery Museum in St. Petersburg. One of the cast-iron cannons cast in the 1600 year, there cheekily lies on the stand for public viewing. 3 bottles of brandy in my bar have already accumulated, but I still do not believe. People do not believe that Russia throughout its history and in all respects has overtaken Europe by approximately two centuries. But ...
The conclusions of the loser. Starting from the school years, we are told that our entire history is like a huge cesspool, in which there is not a single bright spot, not a single decent ruler. Either there were no military victories at all, or they led to something bad (the victory over the Ottomans is hidden, like nuclear launch codes, and the victory over Napoleon is duplicated by the slogan Alexander — the gendarme of Europe). Everything that was invented by ancestors is either brought to us from Europe, or simply a baseless myth. The Russian people did not make any discoveries, did not release anyone, and if someone turned to us for help, it was slavery.
And now everyone around has the historical right of Russians to kill, rob, rape. If you kill a Russian person, this is not gangsterism, but a desire for freedom. And the lot of all Russians is to repent, repent and repent.
A little more than a hundred years of information warfare - and we all have already sown a sense of our own inferiority. We are no longer, like ancestors, self-righteous. Look at what is happening with our politicians: they are constantly being justified. Nobody demands that Lord Judah be brought to trial for propaganda of terrorism and cooperation with gangsters - he is persuaded that he is not entirely right.
We threaten Georgia - and do not carry out threats. Denmark spits in our face - and even sanctions are not imposed against it. The Baltic countries have established an apartheid regime - politicians shyly turn away. People demand to allow the sale of weapons for self-defense - they are openly called worthless cretins who, by stupidity, will immediately kill each other.
Why should Russia make excuses? After all, she is always right! Say about this no one else dares.
You think - just the current politicians are so indecisive, but instead of them, others are about to come. But this will not happen EVER. Because the feeling of inferiority is laid not in the post of Minister of Foreign Affairs. It begins to be systematically brought up from childhood, when the child is told: our grandfathers were very stupid, stupid people, incapable of the most elementary solutions. But the kind and intelligent uncle Rurik came to them from Europe, began to own them and teach them. He created for them the state of Russia, in which we live.
Poison, drop by drop, pours into the soul, and when a person leaves school, he is already getting used to looking at the West as a kind owner, more intelligent and developed. And at the words "democracy" begins to rise on the hind legs reflexively.
What the Western world knows best is waging an information war. The blow was dealt to a place that no one had thought to protect - according to the educational program. And the West won. It remains to show a little patience - and our children themselves will crawl on their knees in that direction and will be asked for permission to lick the owners of their shoes. Already crawling - a couple of days ago I managed to see a piece of the transfer “Why does Russia need its own currency?” That's right. Then it will be: "Why do we need an army?". Then: "Why do we need statehood?"
West won. The consignment.
What to do?
If you do not want slaves to be made out of children, you need not to shout that we will fight when the time comes, but to save them right now. The hour has come, the war is almost over for the overwhelming advantage of the enemy. It is urgent to break the course of teaching history, changing the focus of learning on the positive. To my girls, yet, 4 and 5 are years old, but when they go to school, I foresee hard days. Claims for poor teaching are guaranteed. If the historian does not teach children who such an important person in history was as Rurik or does not know about the Molodin battle, then he must pay fines from his own pocket.
And even better, file a lawsuit with the Ministry of Education for spreading false information. Hiring a good lawyer and hurting them to hurt them - let it itch. But I have no money for the “good” one. Weakly throw off in the name of saving the honest name of their ancestors?
The second way to strengthen the position on the fronts of the information war is to demand that the procurators initiate a criminal case into inciting ethnic hatred by teaching false historical information. There are lots of examples. Recall the Tatar yoke. We are told that the Tatars oppressed the Russians, but they do not say that the Russians plundered the Tatars no less famously. As a result, Russians have an insult to their fellow citizens on a racial basis. Moreover, the insult is wrong. We are all good, and behaved exactly the same.
Or, for example, last year in Kazan they celebrated (or tried to celebrate) the day of the memory of the Tatars, who defended the city from Russian troops. There is a clear opposition on a national basis. Although, in fact, the city was taken not by Russians, but by Russian-Tatar (!) Troops. The cover of the Shig-Alei cavalry provided cover for the archery detachments — and if he is German, then I am ready to admit myself to be the Pope. Russian-Tatar troops took Kazan, eliminating the influence of Istanbul on the Volga, and defending civilians from predatory raids, freed tens of thousands of slaves. It is enough to recognize the participation of the Tatars in this noble cause - and the national question loses its urgency.
But I am not a lawyer, and I do not know how to roll a statement in such a way that they will not be dismissed and sent to hell.
By the way, the Dallas plan about inciting national hatred was repeatedly mentioned here. And no one paid attention to how it is implemented. Also at school. Good teachers diligently sow discord between the largest national groups - Russians and Tatars. The whole course of history is pearling about how the Tatars attacked, how the Russians attacked the Tatars, etc. But nowhere is it indicated that the Tatars are our symbiote, the people-partner. Tatar units have always been part of the Russian troops, participated in all Russian wars - both internecine and in battles with an external enemy. It can be said that the Tatars are simply Russian light cavalry. Or Russian - Tatar wrought army. The Tatars fought against Mamai on the Kulikovo Field, together with the Moscow army, the Tatars were the first to attack the enemy in the Swedish and Livonian war; in 1410, the Polish-Russian-Tatar army was crushed by the Crusaders near Grunwald, breaking the back of the Teutonic Order - moreover, it was the Tatars who took the first blow.
Sometimes people ask me why I don’t mention Lithuanians. So I mention - Russian. The Grand Duchy of Lithuania was a Russian state, with the Russian population, who spoke Russian, and even the clerical work was in Russian. And you thought that a small racist country on the Baltic coast was once a great state?
7: 0 in favor of the West.
For four thousand years we lived side by side with the Tatars. They fought, were friends, were related. They smashed the Romans, the Crusaders, the Ottomans, the Poles, the French, the Germans ... And now, our children open a textbook, and they are dripping from every page: enemies, enemies, enemies ... This is legally called inciting national hatred. And in fact - the usual information war.
