We have enough experts who love to boast a new image of the armed forces and condescending to criticize the “scoop” for military failures in 1941.
A dangerous thing – shapkozakidatelstvo. Truly “new look” not only the army but also the entire system will be checked only when there is no collision with illiterate thugs from the desert, and with equal or superior force to the enemy. We know the name of this enemy where he is, but only guess what he’s capable of.
The name of this enemy is not “international terrorism”. It does not scare me tumbling commandos, a clever armor or silent rifle. He absolutely does not care about fashionable shape of our soldiers, in the terrible state of regimental priests, on the power and reach of our television propaganda and even perspective samples has not yet arrived in troops equipment.
This enemy knows that war is not a competition of parade and not fight Kovtun with Satanovskiy. War is a clash of economies, collision rear, Assembly plants, computing centers, design offices, scientific schools and the ordinary schools. Also war is always the battle of worldviews.
The plan Barbarossa still remains one of the largest military operations in human history. It was attended by 4 million soldiers and 600 thousand pieces of equipment, the advancing front в2900 kilometers. In the first three months of operation Barbarossa were killed 3 million Soviet citizens.
Think about these numbers. And ask yourself – to what extent our new, democratic image is able to protect us from the next Plan Barbarossa? Will our housekeeper, which is around the head, to withstand the assaults of the enemy, if he would strike at us?
