We read the letter "G": "Gorbatov, a city in the Nizhniy Novgorod region…" " Gorodishche , a city in the Penza region…" "Gorohovets, a city in the Vladimir region…" "Groznyy, a Russian city in the Northern Caucasus on the Chechen plain…" The constantly repeated reminder about Djohar (Groznyy) as about a Russian city in Russian sources and with lips of the Russian representatives is like a spell, which is giving out uncertainty in correctness of the authors and instigators of this myth. When zombied with the official propagation Russians are said, that "primordially Russian city Groznyy" was built on the site of Chechen villages burnt by Russians, and listed the names of these villages, they usually close their ears with fingers and turn on another spell: "The Chechen Republic is a primordial part of Russia ". It is senseless to argue about “primordiality” ... >> full

From: MSN NicknameEagle_wng (Original Message) Sent: 7/4/2005 1:36 AM Vladimir Malakhov. Racism and Migrants Автор: Vladimir Malakhov Версия для печати The way we act directly depends on the categories by means of which we order and organise social reality. This, roughly, is what sociologists mean when they talk about the discursive organisation of society. In what follows I would like to propose some thoughts on the categories at the basis of the discursive organisation of Russian society. More precisely, on those which determine the perception of migration in Russia. Russian officials always know which card to draw from their rhetorical pack. Depending on the situation, they either talk about the multinational character of the country, about the need to reinforce the friendship between peoples and foster "dialogue between cultures", about the "national question" (which, appendix-like, is in the habit of unexpectedly causing pain to the state organism) growing more serious, or about "inter-ethnic relations" worsening (assuming that relations between "ethnies", like those between neighbours, can improve ... >> full

This specific type of thinking proved to be especially bright after the events in Beslan, when Putin, not having mentioned the Chechen Republic , declared, that Russia had undergone an "intervention" of certain "international forces", “secretly supporting the terrorists" and using the latter as "a shock force". It is natural, that at such a "conspiracy" perception of reality, security officers can try to solve these problems only in the mode of "a special action". There is a saying: not ... >> full

From: MSN NicknameEagle_wng (Original Message) Sent: 7/9/2005 5:11 AM Jule, 07, 2005 Uncle Sam used Putin The Russian foreign policy in mutual relations with the NATO, still, remains a zigzag one. After the period of rigid applications Moscow , as a rule, softens the tone and begins to search for means of preservation of the reputation. Today Russians are in such a position that they do not dare to admit true intentions of the NATO, and it is more and more difficult every day to give themselves out for a friendly partner. Therefore at each opportunity Russians do not miss a chance to remind the management of the alliance of the main reference points of the newly made "commonwealth", which has already set the teeth on edge with offers about joint efforts in the struggle with the so-called "international terrorism". Also the Russian party indefatigably nags about extradition of the Chechen diplomats. In turn the West demands arguments of more powerful, than proofless charges in their participation in "the international ... >> full

From: MSN NicknameEagle_wng (Original Message) Sent: 7/14/2005 2:37 AM Jule, 14, 2005 The Dismembered People of Russia The method of treatment by means of embryos of unborn children is created. At once there is a question: why of unborn and why children? We shall name it easier - cannibalism, as, as a matter of fact, it is possible to pound the body of the born child, and to use it for reproduction of the cells. It is more than that: if to think, there is no basic difference, whether to pound it and to enter then in the form of an injection into a direct muscle of the stomach, or, excuse me, naturally TO EAT. In any case the effect will be the same. For this reason I name this method of treatment to be a legalized cannibalism. It does not matter, whom we are going to eat – an unborn creature, a born child or even an adult person, sense the same. In this article I wish to consider ... >> full
