Just as the Russians did not admit their crime in Katyn for half a century, today they do not admit to the crime in Bucha.

Katyn, before and after In recent years, the Russian-language press were trying to return to the Soviet period perverse interpretation of the known facts, denouncing the aggressive policy of the Soviet Union on the eve of the Second World War. This fact reveals the phenomenon of the revision of the Kremlin timid steps towards historical truth, which occurred in a short period Eltsinovskoy thaw. Under the slogan "no falsification of history" actually goes its restoration campaign, in accordance with the story, which was written pseudo-historians Kremlin. Interestingly, this trend felt Stalin's grandson, has filed a lawsuit against the newspaper, ran a story about Stalin. Of course, in other circumstances, whether grandson unlikely to set off on a search for "truth" in the protection of his grandfather. It's like as if a virtual grandson of Hitler began to seek justification in the crimes of his grandfather on the pretext that no indictments documents Hitler's signature.
Official Moscow version of the fault of the Germans in the Katyn tragedy ever since the Nuremberg trials, when Moscow's attempt to blame the mass execution of Polish officers by the Germans, was recognized as a lie. This fact was the reason for concealing information about the crime. Unlike in the West, the Soviet Union naturally blatant fact of abuse of innocent people nobody knew, until the collapse of the communist ideology, while the Poles are not officially requested archival documents upon execution. Part of the documents handed over to Russian, but apparently the deal is so shameful for Russia, and that it is limited, ignoring the Poles insistence on the complete withdrawal of confidentiality on the Katyn crime.
Putin as a true national patriot, well aware that the Russian people by virtue of his mentality can only exist in a totalitarian state, headed "back to the Empire." (The phrase "every nation has the government it deserves", brilliant in its simplicity, and irrefutable.) The collapse of the Soviet Union, the collapse of the communist ideology and, more importantly, though, about the events preceding the war, however, known to all, but carefully concealed from the public the most truthful , the most honest countries in the world, suddenly leaked from the archives of the dying of the country, like the conscience of the dying - made a mental discomfort in the minds of constituent people (brilliant linguistic discovery Russian nationalists) Empire. People who pathologically incapable of collective active in social and political life, the people who need a leader, all of it is solved and then posthumously and is responsible for the error turned out to be the entered in a democracy like suffocating fish out of water. And if it was not a fatal error of the oligarchs, who have found a replacement patient degraded Yeltsin in the face of Putin, the authorities in Russia, again, would be represented by a sovereign democracy, but unlike today would represent a symbiosis of a small group of super-oligarchs and the president-puppet. What would be fundamentally no different from what has in fact, except for one, but very significant detail - the national structure of power. And it is this circumstance that prevented the looting of the country and the export of capital.
The merit of Putin to his people is that he understood the two main things:
1- the mentality of the Russian people will not accept democracy
Empire 2 is the Russian people lost.
Democracy in Russia is only possible with the elimination of these two reasons. (For details, see. In the article "The People's fate or each cricket to his last» (
http://proza.ru/2008/03/22/639)
To paraphrase a well-known expression "that Russian well, the German for death", we can say, "democracy is contraindicated Russian people." Here no choice remains one path "Back to the empire." What actually makes Putin. Election, the Constitution, the Duma, and all related paraphernalia Democracy Putin emasculated. These words as decoration, behind which - totalitarianism. Unfortunately, many in the West do not want to understand this, and some called the dictator only as "friend of Putin." Like the marshals of the militia of Minin and Pozharsky, expel small Polish team from the Kremlin, Putin and Medvedev have saved Russia from several Jewish at this time of the revolutionaries, and the oligarchs, who have decided to repeat 1917.
There is an attempt of the Jews, or any more future applicants (interested parties to power, namely, the way it looks), to establish democracy in Russia, in vain. By the way, these contenders for power - single, no one behind them. Emptiness.
But even more terrible - spiritual emptiness soars throughout the territory of the huge empire. Communist ideology, which stood guard over death, has suffered a complete fiasco, when the threat of a violent death, was replaced by the threat of starvation, with both protected and for themselves the guards. Recognizing the need for some kind of "Russian idea" for the constituent people of the empire, the Kremlin philosophers have found it in the so-called sovereign democracy. This is simple at first glance, the phrase a lot of ambiguity. Firstly, democracy is seen here, but a special, one must understand it suitable for the constituent people, but does for the other peoples of the empire. Second, this phrase is convenient by the fact that here is the word democracy, so to speak for the West, well, sovereign, that the West knew that there is another version of democracy, purely Russian, which he did not understand the West. By the way, I personally kind of democracy is also not clear, that is understandable, but not as a democracy, as well as a third option of "sovereign democracy," which, it seems to me that most accurately revealed in the definition, namely, sovereign democracy, a democracy for the sovereign (ruler).
Thus, in reality, we were under a totalitarian regime, newly returned, thanks to Putin, after a short period of oblivion, in the limits of Russia. The king in a monarchy, the secretary general under socialism, when the president of sovereign democracy - essentially unchanged sovereigns totalitarian regime acceptable mentality of the Russian soul. Everything has calmed down, and now it is necessary to return to the people the peace of mind that was broken unveiling of the long-known, unpleasant for most, if I may say so, an honest, most correct in the world of the Soviet people the facts incriminating collaboration with Nazi Germany and aggressive policy towards countries in along the western border of the USSR. Appears Presidential Decree "On the Presidential Commission of the Russian Federation to counter attempts to falsify history to the detriment of Russia's interests," Medvedev. Judging by the composition of the commission, consisting mainly of political scientists and officials of various departments, created a political body, whose purpose is precisely to counteract the historical truth, causing moral damage to the Russian people. According to commission member Konstantin Zatulin, State Duma deputy from the "United Russia", it "will address the issues that are sharply politicized and can be dangerous for the moral health of society." The trend movement in the Soviet past, when science, including historical, served ideology is evident. In short the Kremlin together with the vector "back in the Empire," returns to the people falsified history, not inflicting moral damage to its relict imperial worldview. The Commission aims to protect the "moral health" constituent people, web empire.
And now, taking into account the above, it becomes clear arguments have appeared in the media to justify the murder of 22 thousand Polish officers. And if the first attempt to pass a brutal massacre on the Germans, which have found a mass grave, fails, then 65 years later, when the truth about the Katyn massacre became known, and for the Russian people, and where this truth can no longer be unlocked, declared journalists, finding an excuse execution of Poles, as revenge for the defeat of the army under Tukhachevsky Warsaw in 1920. Then Pilsudski Polish army defeated the Russian invaders, who according to the plans of Leon Trotsky had to go further to Germany to bring on the bayonets of the ideas of communism Germans and other Europeans unreasonable.
The prisoner 60 thousand Red Army soldiers fell in the campaign. It is important to note two points:
1. Russia invaded Poland on whether the purpose to bring happiness to the Poles, introducing them to the building of communism, or return the former colony under their fold, it does not matter, it is important that the Poles disagreed and defended the country against the aggressor.
2. The Polish prisoners were not shot.
The political situation in Europe before World War II there was clearly not in favor of the Poles. All these years after the ignominious defeat of Moscow was preparing for revenge, with hatched a plan to return to the empire, and not by peaceful means are not only Poland, but also Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Bessarabia, that is, all colonial territories, which Russia lost at the end of the First world war and the subsequent military venture in Poland. However, while the map of Europe appeared not Nazi Germany, these plans could not find reality. In Germany, Moscow saw partner in reshaping Europe and worthy opponent Tandy France and England. In London and Paris realized a serious threat hanging over Europe, and sent a delegation to Moscow to seek support to counter the intentions of Germany (August 1939). The negotiations have been fruitless because of disagreement to give at the mercy of Bolsheviks Finland and the Baltic states. And a few days later, August 23, Molotov and Ribbentrop signed the famous non-aggression pact with the secret protocols of the partition of Poland and the freedom of action of the USSR in Finland, the Baltic States and Bessarabia. From that day the tragic fate of Europe was sealed. A month later, two predators bite into her body, tearing each other the country to converge on a common agreed-upon beforehand border. During the attack on Finland, the Soviet Union expelled from the League of Nations. But the Kremlin do not care about a bunch of Bolsheviks in the whole world, for the sake of the bright future of communist. State of Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia cease to exist. Finnish people, selflessly fighting, defeated the Red Army, but realizing the sinister danger, Finland price Karelian Isthmus signed a peace treaty with a dangerous neighbor. Romania loses Bessarabia and Bukovina. And when it does not remain that divide the predators engage each other in mortal combat.
Returning to the Katyn case, I want to ask, but could the Soviet government do differently with the Polish prisoners of war, considering the repressive actions of the father of all the peoples of Joseph Dzhugashvili, with torturers Lazar Kaganovich, Lavrenty Beria, Mendel Khatayevich against its citizens. For 30 years, these executioners hunger and shootings killed 26% of the Ukrainian people, 23% of the peoples of the Volga and the Caucasus, more than three million people lost Kazakhstan, millions of people died in Siberia. These 22 thousand officers of the Polish army had no chance to survive. Their lives did not fit in the contract prepared for the Molotov-Ribbentrop fate of the Polish state.
And in our time under the auspices of the Russian authorities organized movement against "falsification of history", and there are officials from history, ready to passionately defend the aggressive policy of the USSR on the eve of the Second World War, and attempts to justify "Katyn" is the height of hypocrisy and effect a complete lack of conscience.
______________
The theme of the board for the crimes of the Soviet Union, probably more than once will emerge. Ascend as long as Russia does not repent of them, as Germany did, leaving all the past history, and freed from it, successfully cooperates with other states, and primarily with the former enemies, who in Germany have no complaints. Katyn is one of the high-profile crimes, which is still on the conscience of Russia. Katyn requires repentance and the full truth about the mass execution of innocent people.
29.11.2009
March 5, 1940 the Politburo decided on the execution of Polish prisoners of war. 21857 people were shot. Officially, Moscow does not recognize the offense for 50 years, putting it on the Germans, what to speak of Moscow's understanding of how hard it was a crime. Only after 50 years, Russia has admitted shooting of the Poles and opened on the fact of the execution of the documents
