President of Germany Joachim Gauck: "Russia must repent for the" crimes of the Soviet regime "
As you know, 2012 and 2013 are the years of Russia in Germany and Germany in Russia. It so happened that the year of one country in another country is a set of events (often quite on duty) that are called, so to speak, to reveal one culture before the culture of another, to strengthen social ties between states, to deepen partnership (if any). These years, according to the established tradition, are taking place in a rather sluggish form, and they rarely differ in information bombs. However, the year of Germany in Russia has strayed from this standard. Moreover, he didn’t get out of the ordinary. historical a breakthrough (visa cancellation, for example), and the original political fortel presented by the German side. Moreover, it was not some ordinary member of the ordinary delegation who spoke with the fortress, but the very president — the President of the Federal Republic of Germany, Joachim Gauck. This is the Herr Hauck, who, before becoming the German president, was ordained as an Evangelical Lutheran priest, setting himself the task, in addition to processing the venerable flock, to fight against communism. At first, the struggle against communism in Pastor Joachim didn’t receive God knows ... The fact is that in the GDR (and Gauk from there), to put it mildly, the activity of the church was not welcomed, and the future president had to work within certain limits set aside for him and the government. "
It went much better after the fall of the Berlin Wall and the collapse of the USSR. Then the pastor suddenly realized that he lived in him, but did not find embodiment, the greatest politician, and Gauk in this very policy began to strike all parts of his pastoral body. During the attacks on politics, Hauk continued to practice anti-communist rhetoric, and this rhetoric found its fans in the liberal German environment. Moreover, the anti-communist speeches and publications of Joachim Gauk turned into the most real, unceasing grumbling of a man who cannot get rid of an obsessive idea.
We have our own Gauk counterparts in our country that have been living for decades along with their cockroaches of anti-communism in their heads. Already, towards communism, it seems that the last years of 25 in Russia are few who rush, but nevertheless live on ... Mrs. Novodvorskaya is a vivid example. Only here, for all her political activity, the president of Novodvorskaya does not choose, well, you know, they don’t choose, but in Germany Joachim Gauk 18 March 2012 of the year smiled such luck. His cockroaches in his head in Germany, many, apparently, like ...
However, let us return to Harr Gauk and clarify what he recently attracted attention ... And he attracted him by the fact that at the Bellevue Palace at the so-called intellectual meeting of the delegations of Russia and Germany decided to tell the audience about the wrong behavior of Russia. As they say, nothing foretold ... But this is for those who are not familiar with the past of this German harr.
According to Mr. Gauk, Russia has not repented for the "crimes of the Soviet regime." At the same time, the German president calls on Russia to take the example of Germany, which does not tire of repenting for its past, and at the same time, developing a new identity, unites the people.
Collective consciousness is formed not only by great victories and great injuries, but also by feelings of guilt, the president of the Federal Republic of Germany said.
Here you go, they say, with sour guilty faces, ask forgiveness from civilized nations, and you will have great democratic happiness. Well, gay weddings, for example, LGBT parades in city centers, lending to economy-breathing economies and then absorbing them ... It was Joyim Gauk who supported gay marriage with both hands, which apparently led him to the presidency in Germany. And that in "Europe" now without this in any way ... But Gauk is doubly lucky, because he is also an evangelical pastor - the servant of the Lord ...
The German president, as it turned out from his words, uttered at the Potsdam Meeting forum (with departure to Berlin), devoted to the cross years of the FRG in Russia and Russia in the FRG, was literally shocked by the fact that in Russia one of the recent polls revealed the popularity of such historical personalities as Brezhnev, Lenin and Stalin.
From Mr. Gauk’s speech one can understand that he is clearly haunted by the realization that Nazi Germany was once defeated by the Soviet Union, and that, not without the help of the Soviet Union, Germany suddenly began to repent. It does not give rest against the background of an anti-communist idea stuck in the brain. But because the German president suddenly decided to declare that, they say, Russia is also to blame. I am guilty and should start repenting here and now, pulling out my hair and declaring, how did I, Russia, manage to do it: saved the world from the brown plague, turned the ideas of "superhumans" to dust and dispelled to the wind ... For this you naturally need to begin to repent publicly.
Obviously, the German president expected to see Mikhail Gorbachev or, at worst, Boris Yeltsin, among the leaders of that very (most sensational) opinion poll, but ... I did not see it, which means: repent, repent and repent again ...
But the words of Gauk, for all his geographical and, so to speak, social remoteness from Russia, you see, give something familiar. After all, we have our own groups of gentlemen who literally cannot live without words about the need for repentance of Russia. And repentance is, apparently, should be carried out according to a predetermined schedule: without departing from the established rhythm. To whom to repent, for what to repent, and who exactly should do it - this is a side question. The main thing - to raise the topic constantly. Here is a rough schedule of "repentance": today - for the "totalitarian Soviet past", tomorrow - for the fact that "socialism and Nazism are one and the same", the day after tomorrow - for the prohibitions of gay pride prizes. Is it worth mentioning the list of people who, in our country, applauded the words of Mr. German President and lined up to accept an apology from Russia. You know a lot of them. And this gauco-philosophy has been looking for a long time and, it must be admitted, finds ground in our country. In some places, even the roots took ...
After these words of the President of the Federal Republic of Germany, I would like to ask: what is the German national identity today? After all, according to his version, Russia should also come to such an identity. Perhaps it lies in the fact that every 20 th “German” is a Turk? .. Or is it that a Pole scores four goals for the German club against the Spanish team? .. Or that the Germans will no longer be Germans without annual gay parades in major cities? .. Hmm, friendship of nations is, of course, great, but only where does the national German identity, and even multiplied by the subtext from the friendship of same-sex organisms ...
So, maybe, instead of the demands of repentance from all over Russia, the German president should demand repentance from those who in our country work poorly on Western grants. Well, in fact, gentlemen do not work well: Brezhnev is in the first place in the ranking, no one is going to equate socialism with Nazism, Gauk and others like him are dissatisfied. So bring order there, gentlemen, mega-liberals and gauchosophists, and then push speech ...
