What is under the tree? 2013 Results of the Year


Especially a lot of gifts from Russian President Vladimir Putin. There is an expensive gift from America - Snowden, whose initiative turned into a revelation of US global computer surveillance. With this unexpected acquisition, Putin split the Western world and exacerbated it with his know-how.

The conservative policy of normal (traditional) values ​​of Putin, as opposed to Western immoral homosexual values, brings no less fruit. Normal people remaining in the West increasingly call Russia their “last hope”.

The second gift is Syria with Bashar Assad. Here, at the last moment, the American Eagle managed to shove a chemical into its beak. weapon, and satisfied, he flew away from Syria. Of course, the fighting in Syria did not stop, but the sane forces there still became easier. The chances that Syria will not repeat the fate of Libya have increased significantly.

The third gift is Ukraine. The teeth of “Europe” gnawed at the very throat of our fraternal republic, a little more - and it would become one of the European colonies, like Greece or Romania. But at the last moment, President Yanukovych understood the brunt of his future position, and Putin helped with advice and credit. Indeed, the “Belarusian” or “Kazakhstani” future is much better than the “Greek” or “Romanian” one.

The non-systemic tree of ours has one, but a long-awaited gift - a former oligarch and gray cardinal of the Russian 90 policy, Mikhail Khodorkovsky, who was liberated and moved by air from the colony of the city of Segezha to the brilliant city of Berlin.

This fantastic adventure happened thanks to the ex-German Foreign Minister Hans-Dietrich Genscher, who managed to persuade both Putin and Khodorkovsky. Lastly, through lawyers, write a petition for pardon, after ten years of categorical refusal to do so.

The Western press is confidently broadcasting that Putin has decided in this way to improve Russia's image in the eyes, of course, of the West before the Olympic Games in Sochi. Of course ... But Khodorkovsky and Genscher decided to help him with this: a strange kind of Olympic alliance - only for the sake of the success of the Sochi Olympics. Moreover, Khodorkovsky has already managed to urge Western countries to “not give Putin a gift” in Sochi. After he made it ...

With the early release of Khodorkovsky, things are not as simple as the Western and our pro-Western press tells us. Nine months remained for Khodorkovsky until the end of his sentence, and the laurels of the liberal martyr, and maybe even the halo of the new “Nelson Mandela”. They were preparing to meet him in Moscow with flowers ...

And instead, liberation and flight to Berlin, allegedly to a sick mother in a German clinic, which instead of the clinic turned out to be ... in Moscow. This is more like a political combination with far-reaching goals, rather than the Olympics on the nose, but whose is it? Putin or Genscher? Or Khodorkovsky? The last character of this stories He says that he is not going to engage in politics, but only in public and human rights activities. Of course ... This is not a policy at all, especially in Russia.

The widow of Vladimir Petukhov, who was shot by hired killers of the mayor of Nefteyugansk, appealed to Khodorkovsky with a request “not to make a sacrifice”: around YUKOS, too many people were hindering his business. This is the most suitable New Year's wish, by the way, not only to Khodorkovsky, but also to our other political prisoners. In the West, the shadow of Berezovsky will inevitably loom over Khodorkovsky, after all, they are one field of berries.

New Year's holidays darkened the bombings of terrorists in Volgograd. Innocent people died. Bitter and painful. Their blood fell on the bandits, and she cries for retribution.

          And where does the hypocrisy?
          After the battle, in the trenches, next to the bodies of their dead comrades, the soldiers raised their "front-line" soldiers for the New Year, for the coming victory! They congratulated each other and promised to die, but not to back down and finish everything that the friends did not have time to!

            Hello comrades.
            This is what I tell you, dear comrades, our enemies, are counting on this to plunge us into despondency and sorrow, to demoralize us so that we are afraid of them ... to disrupt the natural course of things for the whole country.
            But I want to say that yes, several tragic and terrible cases happened, but we already managed to mourn these losses ... and still have time to do it.
            The fact that people will celebrate the New Year today means that everything eventually finds peace, and the cowardly attempts of these insignificants to disrupt the natural order of things were unsuccessful, we could not be intimidated, and you can rise after any blow, there is no such blow after which Russia would didn't rise.

            And those who organized these heinous atrocities, cowardly and heinous, I am sure one day they will be blocked in one of the private houses, in one and the North Caucasian republics, and destroyed by a special forces detachment.

            So ... do not lose heart comrades, we will survive it.

        Shock! This VIDEO will not be shown to you in an “honest” corrupt Ukrainian media that fed the audience soapy stories about the “bloody dispersal” and the tears of peaceful “children”!

        On December 14, the great manipulator Savik Schuster quickly and flatly refused to show the live video of the Ministry of Internal Affairs on the air of the Shuster live program.

        His actions were supported by the opposition people's deputies present in the hall, the pigeons voted that it was impossible to kindle the situation in the country !!!

        “I would very much like to see it, but not today,” the host of the program of the central, supposedly controlled power of the channel, countered the insistent proposal of the representative of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

        However, 2 weeks have already passed, but neither Inter, nor other TV channels have decided to show the truth through the eyes and video lenses of law enforcement officers who performed the oath. Obviously, in the name of observing high standards of journalistic work and a complete rampant of objectivity on blue screens with an orange tint.

        On December 20, on his professional holiday of mocked and slandered militia, one of the Berkut people who visited the thick of the events on Euromaid with pain and simple words set out what he saw and felt there.

        “In the media, everyone fabricates and carries a complete lie. In Donetsk, people don’t know what’s going on here!

        They show little things and put everything as if we were just killing civilians and mutilating demonstrators. And no one shows how we were blown up and burned. They made some kind of fascists from the VV and Berkut in the media, the whole press was bought! ”

        Ukrainians were able to read the revelations of a devoted hero only thanks to Internet associates and canned journalists who posted the Berkut’s appeal on all the resources available to them, the inappropriately mass media once again simply ignored and hid from their readers.

        What did Schuster hide from the audience?

        Now readers can become viewers and finally see VIDEO, the frames from which, flatly, Savik refused to show.

        Not to look nervous! “Inexpressible” and maydanut can, but what if it helps to “open your eyes”?

        Is it like I'm immortal? Me not. So you are immortal. Well, congratulations. Because I, as a mortal, and being "in this country", intending to live and die here, I risk on a par with the Stalingraders. Today, tomorrow, always. And they won't scare me, they can kill me, but they won't scare me, I spit on them. In my spirit, I grieve for the lost, not like the blessed immortals, that they do not risk anything and can puff out their cheeks, but I grieve. But on the holiday I will be cheerful, and I will always be angry. Very angry, because when I have the slightest chance to take revenge somehow, I should be quite ready for that ...

Next: attach to a pillar and give snipers the opportunity to kill them slowly and painfully, knocking out his arm, then his leg, etc. No concessions - both they and we.

Ordinary people who live and work according to their own ideas. And there is a group of Kharijites-takfirists. So even Salafis are wrong for these Kharijites laughing for kharijits, they are all infidels. these are kharijits and are terrorists. and this group has excellent sponsors who direct them to pseudo-jihad.
              In Saudi Arabia, it is enough for a person to recognize Kharijit. So he is immediately hanged on a gallows without trial, and in the role of a gantry truck crane. hi

For the time being, we can convince ordinary citizens of the same USA that the Saudis and Qatari people must be torn to pieces. It is better to have a powerful public opinion on the side of Russia. I mean not theirs zhurnalyug, but people.
        Let the Saudi-Qatar people and their Wahhabi governments so far begin to fear quietly. Then it will turn into a real horror. They have nowhere to go.

      Let's start from the fact that Genscher and others like him are far from fools.
      And they understand that walkers are the personification and foundation of the old liberal machine ..... the war of liberalism with patriotism in Russia seems to be lost. Maybe they, realizing this, start castling ... changing crap ... for those whose diapers are still clean.

            Today. At the exit from the underground station skortmvaya, Volgograd. There are two officers and three from the PPS, everyone is smoking .... A woman passing by- "Can I smoke now, stoll, in public places ??"
            - "Go grandma, we'll upset you - and you will smoke!"

            but I like that they didn’t smoke in the porch. at least not so much. and not only in the porches

            I smoked like I smoked at the entrance, but in my opinion I only put 2 cups, stew cigarettes with cigarettes and water separately, no stench and smearing the cigarette butts to extinguish all the way up the stairs.
            Everywhere, the maximum is something like an ashtray, no more, and the minimum is a warehouse of gobies right on the floor.
            We do not have +30 all year round, smoke and it is cold in the entrance.
            In a trolleybus, for example, I don’t like to drink beer, as I drank it and I drink it, I don’t bother anyone, it’s just so convenient for me to finish my drink at home.
            We have a lot of problems, and so, we don’t care about bullshit, they come up with laws for the good, but it often happens the other way around, I don’t believe that legislators are so stupid, but damn it or that they obviously work for someone else, and obviously not for the people.

    The third gift is Ukraine. The teeth of “Europe” gnawed at the very throat of our fraternal republic, a little more - and it would become one of the European colonies, like Greece or Romania. But at the last moment, President Yanukovych understood the brunt of his future position, and Putin helped with advice and credit. Indeed, the “Belarusian” or “Kazakhstani” future is much better than the “Greek” or “Romanian” one.

    Although I live in Ukraine, let God have mercy on me from such gifts! So far there is no statement that Ukraine has firmly chosen the path of integration into the Customs Union - I DO NOT BELIEVE!
    I don’t believe because I doubt that tomorrow, relations with Russia, will not begin to build again like yesterday, I don’t believe that this is a deliberate choice for the benefit of the majority, and not an attempt to escape from the inevitable economic collapse. Well, I don’t believe it! Hopefully I was wrong.

    "... In the Summer 7208 from the Creation of the World in the Star Temple or according to the new style in 1699, the false Peter I, who recently returned from the European embassy, ​​where he was replaced, issued a decree on the abolition of the old calendar, which existed in Russia no more , not less, but at least 7208 years, and introduced the Western European calendar from the Nativity of Christ ...

    “December 20. Named. - On the celebration of the New Year. The Great Sovereign pointed out to say: the Great Sovereign is known to Him not only in many European Christian countries, but also in the Slavic peoples, who agree with our Eastern Orthodox Church in everything, like Volokhs, Moldavians, Serbs, Dalmatians, Bulgarians and His Great Sovereigns Cherkasy and all Greeks, from whom our Orthodox faith was accepted, all tenarods according to the summer reckon from Christmas of Christ eight days later, that is, Henry from 1 numbers, and not from the creation of the world, for many times and counting X years, and now from the Nativity of Christ comes 1699 year, and the future of Henry from 1 number will come a new 1700 year merry and new century, and for that good and useful business, the Great Sovereign henceforth should reckon to write all and all Today is the first day of Henry from 1 of the date of the Nativity of Christ of 1700.

    And as a sign of that good beginning and a new hundredth anniversary in the reigning city of Moscow, after due thanks to God and a prayer penance in the church and who will happen in your house, you will have a lot of room for the noble people and the house make collars to decorate from the tree and branches of pine, spruce and juniper against the samples, what are done at the Gostiny Dvor and at the lower pharmacy, or to whom it is more convenient and decent, looking at the place and gate, it is possible to fix; and to the meager people to each, though according to the old tree, or a branch on the gate, or over his temple; and now and then it is ripe, now the future of Henry on 1 the day of this year, and standing there adorned by Henry on the 7 day of that 1700 year.

    The Western press is confidently broadcasting that Putin has thus decided to improve the image of Russia in the eyes, of course, of the West before the Olympic Games in Sochi. Of course ... But Khodorkovsky and Genscher decided to help him with this: a strange Olympic alliance - for the sole success of the Olympics in Sochi.

    What's the "image" ?! Everything is much more prosaic than we are told. An interesting touch in the Khodorkovsky case, which simultaneously shows both the West's attitude towards the Russian Federation and the "intelligence" of all these "KGB and FSB analysts" who make up the very power in it. As you know, shortly before his release, a third criminal case was opened against Hodor, but then Putin, all of a sudden, suddenly pardoned him, and at five o'clock Hodor jumped out of the zone to Germany! What happened? What happened was that a rumor came out of the US presidential administration that Obama, they say, ordered not to add anyone else to the Magnitsky list. I.e, Hodor was exchanged for the United States's refusal to deprive members of the ruling Russia clan of the opportunity to flee abroad and use the money stolen from Russia there.
    It would seem that, after all, the Kremlin got it!
    However, as soon as Khodor crossed the border, an official message was received that Obama, it turns out, was not going to cancel the replenishment of the "Magnitsky list" by officials from Russia. Analysts are bad! The thought that Obama would simply deceive Putin did not occur to them!
    But the Khodor case shows how acute the issue of the Magnitsky list is for our authorities - the question of the possibility of escaping from Russia to the West, to your own money, or rather ours.
    So I wanted to write RUSSIA instead of Russia, but I can’t. What our country of Russia is today is. But what can it be - there’s nothing Russian on Olympic symbols - Russia alone. It's a shame!

    The custom of the Christmas tree is not one of the indigenous Russian traditions. The Christmas tree is now so firmly established in Russian society that it would never occur to anyone that it is not Russian. After the death of Peter, the Christmas trees ceased to be put. Only the owners of the taverns decorated their houses with them, and these Christmas trees stood at the taverns all year round - hence their name came to be - “Christmas trees-sticks”.
    The sovereign prescriptions are preserved only in the decoration drinking establishments, which before the New Year continued to be decorated with Christmas trees. By these trees, which were tied to a stake, mounted on roofs or stuck at the gate, taverns were identified. Christmas trees stood there until next year, on the eve of which the old ones were replaced with new ones. Having arisen as a result of the Peter's decree, this custom was maintained during the XNUMXth and XNUMXth centuries.
    In “History of the Goryukhin Village”, Pushkin mentions “an ancient public building decorated with a Christmas tree and a two-headed eagle.” This characteristic detail was well known and was occasionally reflected in many works of Russian literature. Sometimes, instead of a Christmas tree, pines were placed on the roofs of taverns: “The tavern building ... consisted of an old two-story hut with a high roof ... A sloping red withered pine stuck at the top of it; the thin, withered branches of her seemed to be calling for help. "
    That’s why, people began to call the taverns “Christmas trees” or “Ivan-Yolkins”: “Let's go to the Christmas tree, we’ll have a drink for the holiday”; “It can be seen that Ivan Yolkina was visiting, that you were wobbling from side to side”; "The tree (tavern) is sweeping the house with a cleaner broom." Soon, the whole complex of “alcoholic” concepts gradually acquired “Christmas tree” doublets: “raise the Christmas tree” - get drunk, “go under the Christmas tree” or “Christmas tree fell, let's go raise” - go to the tavern, “be under the Christmas tree” - be in the tavern; "Yolkin" - a state of intoxication, etc.
    In Russia, the spruce was considered a death tree: it is no coincidence to this day that spruce branches usually pave the way along which the funeral procession goes, and it is not customary to plant Christmas trees near houses. And what kind of fear does the trip to the spruce forest inspire, where you can easily get lost in the middle of a white day, since the spruce very poorly transmits sunlight in the spruce forests, so it is very dark and scary from this. There was also a custom: strangled and generally suicides bury between two Christmas trees, turning them. From spruce, as from aspen, it was forbidden to build houses. In addition, in Russian wedding songs, the spruce was associated with the theme of death, where it symbolized an orphaned bride.
    In antiquity, among the Slavic Aryans, the Christmas tree acted as a symbol of death, which connected with the "other world", the transition to it and the necessary element of the funeral ritual. Since our ancestors burned their dead, i.e. sent them to the family, the spruce, as a tarry tree burning well at any time of the year, was used for cropping.
    Throughout the XVIII century, nowhere except for drinking establishments, spruce as an element of the New Year or Christmas decorations no longer appears: its image is absent in New Year's fireworks and illuminations; it is not mentioned in the description of the sacred masquerades at court; and, of course, it’s not at folk sacred games. In the stories of the New Year and Christmas celebrations held during this period of Russian history, the presence of spruce is never indicated.

    Shock! This VIDEO will not be shown to you in an “honest” corrupt Ukrainian media that fed the audience soapy stories about the “bloody dispersal” and the tears of peaceful “children”!

    On December 14, the great manipulator Savik Schuster quickly and flatly refused to show the live video of the Ministry of Internal Affairs on the air of the Shuster live program.

    His actions were supported by the opposition people's deputies present in the hall, the pigeons voted that it was impossible to kindle the situation in the country !!!

    “I would very much like to see it, but not today,” the host of the program of the central, supposedly controlled power of the channel, countered the insistent proposal of the representative of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

    However, 2 weeks have already passed, but neither Inter, nor other TV channels have decided to show the truth through the eyes and video lenses of law enforcement officers who performed the oath. Obviously, in the name of observing high standards of journalistic work and a complete rampant of objectivity on blue screens with an orange tint.

    On December 20, on his professional holiday of mocked and slandered militia, one of the Berkut people who visited the thick of the events on Euromaid with pain and simple words set out what he saw and felt there.

    “In the media, everyone fabricates and carries a complete lie. In Donetsk, people don’t know what’s going on here!

    They show little things and put everything as if we were just killing civilians and mutilating demonstrators. And no one shows how we were blown up and burned. They made some kind of fascists from the VV and Berkut in the media, the whole press was bought! ”

    Ukrainians were able to read the revelations of a devoted hero only thanks to Internet associates and canned journalists who posted the Berkut’s appeal on all the resources available to them, the inappropriately mass media once again simply ignored and hid from their readers.

    What did Schuster hide from the audience?

    Now readers can become viewers and finally see VIDEO, the frames from which, flatly, Savik refused to show.

    Not to look nervous! “Inexpressible” and maydanut can, but what if it helps to “open your eyes”?

    Operational video of the Ministry of Internal Affairs about "peaceful provocations", "humane" attacks and complete lawlessness on Euromaid

    There are no words for indignation. Indeed, the power that is not able to restore constitutional order must be driven by a filthy broom.

    - Indeed, the “Belarusian” or “Kazakhstani” future is much better than the “Greek” or “Romanian”. -

    People still remember that in the USSR the workers and peasants had guarantees suitable for the normal life of the vast majority of the population. So the nostalgia of people who are not confident in the future, do not know how to earn money for education for children or treatment of parents, are understandable. When a student in the top ten could go for a thousand kilometers to Moscow to drink beer (such cases occurred during the student years after drinking in a hostel). To rush to the Urals or Siberia for a month, wander through the taiga and go rafting on mountain rivers - the student earned these two hundred rubles part-time jobs in the winter in the wardrobe. And in a month and a half, he brought from a construction team from a thousand to three. So there is something to regret. According to the Institute of Sociology of the Ukrainian Academy of Sciences, 30% of the population of Ukraine favor a return to the Soviet planned economy, with 17% being young people. This was stated by the doctor of economics and sociology, the head of the department of social expertise of the Institute, Yuri Saenko.

I meant, first of all, that huge bureaucratic army that today runs the country. She has money, real estate, children and families already abroad. For example, let me remind you that a couple of weeks ago the Governor of the Krasnoyarsk Territory Lev Kuznetsov was robbed at his villa on the Cote d'Azur. And there are a lot of governors like him, as well as officials of another level in the country. They have long been sick of Russia, they have long wanted to get out of it there, to their money and families. But, for now, they are forced to stay in the "host country", where everyone hates them - from hard workers to entrepreneurs. And all the protection of the regime is a mirage that will disappear at the slightest real indignation of the people. As soon as the opportunity presents itself, this valiant OMON will, with genuine pleasure, beat the ministers, deputies, judges, and all the lackeys of this regime with truncheons on the heads. As soon as the opportunity presents itself. After all, the OMON cannot escape abroad, the OMON will have to stay in Russia. With the people.
