Putin – Medvedev – Are You Listening?

The following is based on the news item from Pravda.Ru: http://English.Pravda.ru/histry/104728-suicide_clubs-0


In present day Russia now, 15 to 20 teenagers commit suicide per year, and, most of them do it openly. All across Russia there are hundreds of websites that are allowed to exist, which will help teenagers to commit suicide. These teenagers, due to unemployment; hardships; no future ahead for them – these websites will not only advice you how to die in a more sophisticated manner, but they will also help you physically to die!

There is also a website which is called: “Whipping therapy cures depression and suicide crisis.”

Why is this terrible suicide phenomenon spreading amongst young people in present bourgeois Russia?

Teenagers now do not see any future where they will be able to live in peace and harmony in a society, where exploitation and the deep chasm between the rich and the poor is growing at an alarming rate. On top of all of this, there is growing nationalism, blaming minorities for the troubles. All of this is being promoted by the Russian state propaganda machine. With no future, with no prospects to get ahead, with no united movement against the present regime – most teenagers see suicide as a way out.

In other countries, such websites would be banned, people taken into custody and charged with helping a person to take his or her own life!

Since Perestroika-Destroika, the rate of teenage suicides has multiplied 30 times. Some Russian scientists predict that by year 2020, more than 1,5 million teenagers will commit suicide annually!

Today, Russia takes second place in the world of countries with the greatest suicide rate. In year 2007, 3,000 teenagers from age 5 to 20 committed suicide!

So, Mr. Putin and your protégé Mr. Medvedev – are you listening?
 

Waffen SS Veterans March in Riga, Latvia

March 16th hundreds of Latvians marched through the capital under police presence to commemorate their countrymen who fought on the side of the German Nazis during WW II. There were over 200 Latvian SAS Legion marchers plus their many supporters. The march also included young Latvian Nationalists based on the German Nazi Youth Movement.

Latvia has also been criticized by Amnesty International for the treatment of the over 400,000 Russian-speaking population who are not allowed to be criticized even though most f them were born in Latvia!


Strikes Are Growing in Russia

From Sergei Skvortsov
Inter@kpss.org

YAROSLAV – On March 25 scores of workers of the “RUSHLEB” demanded a meeting with the owner of this bread-making enterprise. Mostly women workers demanded that they get paid their back ages that were not paid for over two months. The banner in front of this enterprise says ”The best break- baking enterprise in Russia!” Now that it is privatized it certainly is not – its exploitation of the workers.

The enterprise is practically bankrupt because the private owners have siphoned off the profits into foreign banks and now there is no wages for the workers.

Before there was working over 1,500 workers and now it is down to 600-700. Workers declared a hunger strike and although they were promised their back pay – noting happened. The owner Zajchenko is trying to sell the enterprise in Moscow to foreign capital.

EKATERINBURG – The Ambulance Workers walked off their job in a payment dispute – from 85 ambulance workers only 7 workers did not walk out. The strike is ongoing and the city authority is trying to break up the solidarity of the ambulance workers by hiring scabs and involving the police. The workers are holding steady and in solidarity.

CHELYABINSK – Bus and streetcar drivers went in strike for better wages since the transportation union is losing members for higher paying jobs and the city authorities is urging the farmers who are in a bad economic position to cone and start to drive the buses and streetcars at much lower pay.

The union members are demanding that their rise in pay must come form the city budget, not by raising the transportation costs to the public.

NABEREZNYE/CHELNY – TATARSTAN – The workers at an automobile assembly plant OAO KAMAZ because the private enterprise had cut their wages by practically 50%. Over 150 workers called a strike and set up picket lines around the enterprise. The competition between multinational carmakers is fierce ands so they are pushing down wages in other countries of the workers. There is a desperate need of unity in the working class.

LENINGRAD – In the apartment complex near Fortanki and Kutuzov streets the people living in these apartments gathered to protest the demand by the city authorities for them to move out in order for big Condo complex to be built with foreign ownership in charge.

The city gave notice only to about 100 apartment dwellers, ignoring the other 700 apartment families – thinking that they could push this through. The organizing committee printed out a leaflet and let all the 700 apartment families know about this attempt. The people are against the demolishing of this historical building and are protesting and picketing the city authorities.


Is President Yushenko of Ukraine Son of a German Policeman?


President Yushenko of Ukraine at the gravesite of his father, who served the Nazis as a German policeman.

A sensational book has been written by an Israel writer, Yury Vilner, who researched into the archives in which documents were found of his father, Andrey Yushenko, in his own writing that exposed him as a policeman in the service of German Reich.

It is also interesting that Victor Yushenko as President of Ukraine is rewriting history of the Great Patriotic War and giving the order to demolish all Soviet war memorials and monuments that are in Ukraine. Besides this, Yushenko always proclaimed that his father became a prisoner of war and was in the German Nazi concentration camp.

The book by this Israel author is titled “Yushenko the person and the legend.”

The question is why did Yushenko Sr. in his post-war biography omitted certain details that were now found out in the archives to be untrue, and why does President Yushenko repeat these lies – knowing full well that his father – as he himself is – a Ukrainian nationalist and also that his father as did many other traitors, served German Nazism against the Soviet Red Army?

Yushenko Sr. was in the camp Shtalag 324 and Shtalag IVB in June of 1941. Germans freed only nationalist- minded Ukrainians, and Germans living in Russia and  the Baltic prisoners of war. Most of these freed prisoners joined with the Germans to struggle against not only the Soviet Red Army, but against all the Allies fighting German fascism.

The author asks a very pertinent question as to why Yushenko Sr. in his memoirs fails to mention that he was ever in these two German concentration camps. The answer is very simple – he did not have to admit as to how he got out of these two camps already in 1941?

He also did not have to admit that he served as a German police officer against his own people, while millions of Soviets and other prisoners perished in these death concentration camps, wile he was free with other Ukrainian nationalists to subjugate their own people.

This Israel author also found out in the German archives that the German camp Shtalag 324 held only Ukrainian prisoners of war.

Of course the present Ukrainian nationalist regime and President Viktor Yushenko will condemn this expose as only Russian (Moskali) propaganda. But, this expose was written not by a Russian, but a Jewish writer living in Israel!

COMMENT:

The above is based solely on the book “Yushenko the person and the “legend”.


This Is The Kind Of Russia That Putin Built!

 These are just some news items gathered from Russian press and Russian web pages.

According to the information issued publicly by the Institute of Social-Economic Research Department of the Russian Academy of Sciences, there are now in Russia –


Medvedev Will Have a Palace

In an item from PRAVDA.RU web page here is what was found out after the elections that took place when Mr. Putin put in Mr. Medvedev.

The Russian bourgeois government is building a huge Palace on one of the islands in Lake Seliger, halfway between Moscow and Leningrad (or as the bourgeoisie call it now St. Petersburg). Mr. Putin the put-in Prime Minister visited this lake – the only lake that he ever visited to make this a perfect spot for his “chosen one.”

This will be a three-story Mansion with staff cottages for servants and guards. Many bath-houses or couples, two tennis courts, helicopter landing strip plus other amenities that only Royalty can only dream of.

Well, what can we say – when Putin was put in by Yeltsin, and then Putin put in Medvedev, the next step will be to PUT OUT BOTH OF THEM!
