Arkangels - Our people are coming! Victory Day 2018

                                                       Our people are coming!

In the bottomless depths of the Internet, I discovered a piercing article recently - a reflection of publicist Alexander Rusin on the possibility / necessity in our country of celebrating the Victory Day on May 9.

Here is its fragment. Let's read in the lines, laid down by the author.

"... On the one hand, the victory in the Great Patriotic War is one of the greatest events in our history, is not only possible to mark it, but that it is also necessary to mark it, and yet on the other hand, the victor, which was the Soviet Union, is now long gone. The Soviet people defended it in that war- and now this country has been carved up, and its wealth no longer belongs to the people.

The Russian Federation is only formally the legal successor to the USSR, but in fact it is an antipode created at the expense of the destruction of the Soviet Union and the elimination of Soviet power by violent anti-Soviet people who have changed virtually everything in the country.

The country, which the Soviet people defended in the Great Patriotic War, has been carved up, turned inside out, has changed hands, and been turned into a raw material appendage of Europe in general and Germany in particular.

Russia today is under occupation - only not militarily, but economiclly-politically, a velvet occupation, so to speak.

Russia depends on the mercy of the West, on its readiness to continue trading, to buy Russian raw materials and to deliver finished products.

From  Soviet power, under whose leadership Victory was won, there was no trace. Modern Russian power is essentially anti-Soviet, and it is closer to those with whom Soviet power and the Soviet people fought against in that war, the victory of which we celebrate on May 9.

The Russian Federation is by and large the same as Ukraine, only on a larger size. Both Ukraine and Russia were created as a result of the liquidation of the Soviet Union. Their founders, Yeltsin and Kravchuk, are the historical followers of General Vlasov and Stepan Bandera.

The difference between Kiev and the Kremlin is that the Ukrainian authorities consistently pursue the policy of desovietization and rejected the Victory Day holiday on May 9, while the Russian leadership exploits the Victory theme in order to create a patriotic image. But in fact in the Kremlin sit exactly the same anti-Soviets, just as in Kiev - this is proven by their actions, politics and attitude towards the people. And the Yeltsin Museum once again confirms this ... "

Everything is true.

So, what next?

What we shall do?

Is there any light at the end?



Alexander Rusin has some pessimism in his arguments and a loss of prospect is felt.

Let's continue and add to his interesting article.

The need for this is colossal and the material in plentiful supply.

The celebration on May 9, 2018, very clearly, at least in the Arkhangelsk region, showed us new phenomena and trends in the progressive development of public consciousness.

I will begin with a solemn meeting at which the regional military commander receives the parade of the local garrison ten times, before every military "soap box" loudly minted "... I congratulate you on the victory of the Soviet people in the Great Patriotic 1941-1945.

This is something new.

The power openly anti-Soviet and hostile to the working people suddenly remembered the Soviet people?

Maybe the local commander was instructed "from above" to probe public opinion at the level of the region?

Or did he remember the "oath of the Soviet warrior" woke up and he remembered his colleagues with responsibility for "perjury"? ..

Exactly at midnight on  May 10, I watched the TV channel "Russia - 24" and viewed the Moscow parade in full.

No "Soviet" people.

Shoigu  himself made a sign of the cross demonstratively before the start of the parade, but about the Soviet people did not remember a thing.

Putin did not himself make the sign of the cross, but he also did not remember anything about the Soviet people: Who freed the country from German fascism, and remained hanging in the air. No answer.

And we will draw the first conclusion from these facts: - The Arkhangelsk garrison, under a situation of possible aggravation of the socio-political situation in the country, is ready to stand on the side of the people. And this is good.

Ukraine and Armenia - we have a lesson and a warning.

Here ia a fact of people's understanding of political problems at the domestic level. In the evening of May 9, 2018, after participating in the festive procession through the streets of the city, I looked towards my neighbors to talk "for life" and raise a post for Victory Day.

The people were already gathered and my appearance was greeted with an uneven chorus: "Our people are coming!"

I asked what this demonstration means.

All the various people began to speak about their going and seeing the parade and demonstration, and there was a small but pleasant incident.

Here is how it was.

They stood on the sidewalk, along with hundreds of other townspeople, greeting military units and columns of demonstrators. And then there was a choral singing to the accordion, loud cries were heard over the column:

- Glory to the Soviet people - the people, the victor!

"Glory to Great Stalin!"

"Down with the capitalist ministers!"

Over the crowd, "Our people are coming!"

So ordinary townspeople welcomed the appearance in front of them of a column that came with a portrait of Stalin and a banner the "Immortal Stalin Regiment."

What does this fact say?

It says that the people are wise by nature and he sees good and he feels good at heart; - who is the friend, and who is the enemy.

From the crowd of thousands of demonstrators, the "NASHIM" viewers recognized "Nashimi" as the "Immortal Stalinist Regiment", whose fighters have been resisting the perestroika counter-revolution and against the enemies of the people, who have seized power and public property for two decades, with all their strength and capabilities.

Over the past fifteen years, this year was probably the only time when the police chiefs of Arkhangelsk did not "pull over" the activists of the initiative group for the restoration of the Victory Square and the monument to Stalin in Arkhangelsk. And the authorities did not even interfere when, in conjunction with the city's active KPRF, a monument to the leader of the Soviet people was established in the city.

From this we draw a second conclusion: the anti-peoplse government begins to fear applying repressive tactics against its own people, a real fear of being liable and responsible in the future for its political and economic crimes.

And, finally, the third and main conclusion of this publication:

- The struggle to revive the "lost" Great Soviet Power comes to the forefront of the socio-political activities of Communists and Soviet patriots. It is this struggle (if possible, peaceful, in form) that should become a national and mobilizing national / people's idea.

Then we will definitely win!

And intact - in preservation our Mother - Motherland will be given to our children!
