Croatian lesson for Ukrainian patriots

It would be self-deception to believe that the revolutionary events of 2013-2014 years have led to a revival in our country is full of militant spirit. But you can not deny that in the last six months, our society is largely militarized. First, increased military weight nationalist movement. Secondly, the militarization captured a few other groups, whose members may have quite a vague idea of Ukrainian nationalism, but mainly guided by the same thoughts and sentiments as representatives of organized nationalist movement. Thirdly, there was the militarization of social consciousness in general. Fourth, some positive developments have taken place in the minds of members of state security forces.

Do not want to overburden the text Traditionalist understanding of gravity militarized state. However, even in the presence of a plane nationalist state (even if he is not concentrating levers of political power) is critical. We did not have and do not have the army as a backbone of society. But the processes that have occurred and continue to occur, inspires hope that the eternal spirit warrior nevertheless revive and recover the structural incompleteness of our society.

In light partially lifted as soon as the problem it would be nice to think, and the others - the problem of the victorious conclusion of the National Revolution. The current liberal-oligarchic regime is afraid of the best representatives of the Ukrainian people. He is afraid of strong nationalist movement, fear of armed men with patriotic beliefs and active citizenship, afraid that someone will prevent its favorable trough agreement with Moscow and the West, fear, eventually, that the revolutionary element configured Ukrainian society will eliminate this option so Just as Yanukovych eliminated, just make it harder and more consistently (I need to remove the cancer has spread!). Therefore, effective Ukrainian patriots today are limited in their capacity to oppose aggressors and degenerate separatists.

The current government has to spend ATO for Otherwise has ceased to be a power. In order not to expose themselves to the growth of revolutionary sentiment, the authorities are forced to take "intrusive proposal" by the nationalists (this, however, must be added the presence among the people of the current regime with a clear state position). But she was afraid to go too far and give into the hands of revolutionaries trumps too much - too much so that she eventually left out in the cold. We can assume that the government will go to even greater concessions to revolutionaries when scaling Moscow aggression. And after these concessions, and (relatively) successful elimination of hazards Moscow could begin the reverse process. Here, in my opinion, is quite eloquent example of Croatia, where the growth of social weight of military and nationalists eventually turned into repression, marginalization nationalist movement and delivery of left-liberal power of national interests and sovereignty.

There were two original tracks that Croatia was moving to his state. On the one hand, the old political establishment has not lost the national face and picking the right time, he led his country to independence. This establishment has spawned national democratic environment typologically similar to the People's Movement of Ukraine, but certainly more consistent and successful in the plane of the state. On the other hand, young people tended to nationalism and traditions rooted before by nationalists (Ustaše)

Already in 1990 Dobroslav Parag was restored activity of the Croatian Party of Rights (HSP). As the militant wing of the nationalist structure started operations organization "Croatian defense forces" (Hrvatske obrambene snage, HOS). Croatian young people joined the ranks of the organization, trying to be faithful to the ideas and aesthetics of their grandfathers. On the streets of Croatian cities were young men in black uniforms, nationalist symbols and slogans familiar. It nationalist youth was in the front ranks of the young state defense when full army has ever had.

New Croatian government was beneficial when HOS fighters died in the battle of the Serb occupiers. But it was not profitable two points: competition from nationalists and "rebirth of fascism", which greatly disturbed "international community". Accordingly, in 1991, the fierce pressure from the government was waiting for the nationalists. Withdrawal from the elections, murder and unjustified arrests, allegations of creating "illegal armed formations" (and in wartime!). Intervention agents to make nationalists completely controlled by the state.

A similar fate befell the other heroes of the liberation struggle. First - General Ante Gotovina. Selling the Croatian government, which established the rights, drawing on the river spilled blood of patriots, agreed to grant Gotovinu to Hague tribunal in exchange for European integration. Freaks that usurped government interested only saving leadership positions, loans and EU accession. No national pride, no sense of justice or gratitude to those who defended the independence, this bastard is not disturbed. As a result - Gotovia and two other Croatian military had to appear before the tribunal in The Hague. Do not forget that the left-liberal regime, which betrayed Gotovina not only meets the West, but also eliminated political rivals, who at the time were respected in society the military.

Today, there are reasonable grounds to believe that Ukraine can repeat the Croatian history. Our politicians do not even need a tribunal in The Hague. They gladly will throw patriots in prison, accusing them of crimes, eg murder or of "illegal armed groups". Every patriotic action aimed at protecting the Ukrainian sovereignty, tomorrow could be interpreted as a violation of one of the articles of the Criminal Code.

during February and March 2014 "revolutionary updated" internal occupation regime has already demonstrated their readiness to combat nationalist and revolutionary elements in general. This should include the dirty awareness campaign against "RightSector", murder of Alexander Muzychko and other forms of counteracting this revolutionary movement, and the desire to completely marginalize Maidan (this problem has largely been performed). It is worth mentioning for the information campaign intended to show any signs of further revolutionary struggle as "the Moscow provocation."

Today, the Ukrainian nationalists, National Guard soldiers, some patriots from the army and security services, many activists called shimmering horizon decisive action to capture the situation in the country in their hands. Otherwise, we can expect not only repression but also deepen the neo-colonial situation of Ukraine (do not forget that the two "highest rated" candidates are largely pro-Moscow, at the same time they are the "best traditions" of prostitution will go geopolitical concessions to the West).

Then, when heard by policy merchants and bankers, men of the sword had to be merely "soldiers" - the proletariat in the hands of people who think in terms of "buy", "sell", "profit". Now history gives us a chance to make a difference and bring to government people who will think and act categories of life and death for mothers Ukraine.
