READING ROOM
Hello! Now we introduce you to
works of the famous historian and researcher
Viktor Suvorov. Each of his books - it
opening, a new look at the history of the Soviet Union, Red
Army, etc. We bring to your attention a couple of excerpts from
the latest of his book "Suicide".
******************************************
(From Chapter 4.
Red Army soldier Schicklgruber.)
The study of war between Germany and the Soviet Union should
begin with an explanation causes of the German attack, ie
should ask the question: Why Hitler attacked?
And find the answer.
But we are taught not to seek answers, and
do not ask stupid questions. Us
accustomed to live without hesitation. We explained to short
and simple: Hitler in 1941 land in the East required, vital
space. So he rushed to the very
space to conquer. And a lot of
years, we told the story that
Hitler in 1924 in his book "Mein
Kampf wrote: "We want to go back to
point at which interrupted our previous
development 600 years ago. We want to stop the eternal German
commitment to the South and West Europe, and definitely points
finger in the direction of areas located in the East. "
The lines it had the happy life.
They quoted a million times. Thousands and thousands of
politicians, diplomats, generals, historians, journalists
continue to repeat these words. After XX Convention of KPSS,
each quoting Hitler, Stalin accused the short-sightedness: it
Fuhrer himself publicly announce their intentions! Stalin had
just read "Mein Kampf" and act accordingly!
Stalin was the first foreign reader of this book. It was the
largest its connoisseurs. Number issued at that time in Russian
specimens is unknown to me. On the surviving copy print run is
not specified. However, it is clear: the minimum. And now for
the piece specimens, and perhaps, for a single instance of
Stalin generously paid Hitler.
Generous was Stalin. He gave
Hitler's entire gold reserves of Germany together
with itself, with all its people. Stalin
gave Hitler power over Germany. "Without
Stalin would not have been Hitler, there would be no
Gestapo "- so in October 1936, Leo
Trotsky, Stalin appreciated the support Hitler.
No more and no less: without Stalin was not
to Hitler. Without the assistance of Stalin, Hitler
would not have come to power in Germany.
But such a generous fee Stalin was not enough, and August 23,
1939, Stalin gave Hitler Poland, and with it all Europe.
But if Stalin had not appreciated the "Mine
Kampf, the political career of Adolf
Hitler would have ended in 1933, a crushing defeat in
elections. Maybe be possessed by Adolf would break his
swan neck, and even earlier.
Stalin had read "Mein Kampf" in full. Until
the very last page. To a crisp.
And subtract Comrade Stalin, that the primary
problem of the future of Germany, Hitler saw no
lands in the East, about this in a book
phrase, but to liberate Germany
from the shackles of the Versailles treaty. Hitler divided the
enemies of Germany in the internal and external. Internal
enemies - the Jews. External enemies - the French and the same
Jews.
A Stalinist tactics was that
to do everything other people's hands to some of his enemies to
destroy the hands of others. Statement of lands in the East
Stalin's especially scary. "Mein Kampf" - against the
France: "We need to fully understand the following: the most
deadly enemy of the German France is a nation "(Part 2, Chapter
XIII).
Stalin appreciated the "Mein Kampf". From this book should
clearly: there was the one who will fight against the whole
world. Those who will be all hate. Those against whom the rise
all nations. The one who forced the whole world
will announce a war. And anyone who opposed Hitler, will be
considered as a liberator and benefactor.
This is exactly what was needed to Stalin.
******************************************
(From Chapter 13.
About how they learned about geography.)
Hitler did not have a certificate of completion
High School. Hitler's generals and
Field Marshals have certificates and diplomas, but
the level of cognitive development were not simply
not higher than possessed corporal. Open Directive № 21 for
carrying out "Operation Barbarossa, which Hitler signed on 18
December 1940: "The ultimate goal is the creation of the
barrier against Asiatic Russia on the general lines of the
Volga - Archangel. Thus, in case of necessity the last
industrial area remaining in Russian in the Urals, will be
eliminated by the aircraft. "
A small snag was this:
from 22 June until the autumn rains, before the mud, go to the
line of the Volga is impossible. Reason: The German tanks were
small resource, because on the road to Moscow will inevitably
required stop for all German forces on the two or three weeks
to repair tanks, replacement engines, gearboxes, clutches, etc.
In the case of capture Moscow demanded another such
stop for a major overhaul of tanks
and restore combat effectiveness.
So in September to the Volga River is not accessible. In
October - the rain and mud. And after the rain and mud we know
what happens.
If managed in September to go on
line of the Volga, the Urals bombing with this milestone would
not be possible: on the right bank Volga airfields almost none.
They first need to build. It's not so easy to do in October in
the bare muddy steppe, and in November in the bare frozen
steppe.
If the airfield and built, then bomb the industry of the
Urals with them would be impossible. German bombers Do17, S-88
and Xe-111 were created just for other work: to fly at short
distance with a small margin of bombs to
actions with small and medium altitudes. To reach the Urals and
back, the bombers, who were with Hitler in 1941 year, were to
take a lot of fuel, but does not take a bomb. Or they should
have to take the bomb to fly to one end of the bomb,
but will not be returned.
If Hitler's bombers
have sufficient range, then all
equal to the Urals bombing could not take place. Y
Hitler's problem with the gasoline. Already in August
1941 gasoline was so scarce that the conduct of major
operations had to be suspended.
If petrol was in abundance, the
October, November and then it would be impossible to the Volga
airfields that have only had to build. Fuel trucks also need to
refuel after all. And to pull a tractor across the steppe.
If petrol and filed for nonexistent airfields, it had to
apply and bombs. Ships, even hundreds of thousands of tons of
bombs on nonexistent Volga airfields would require a titanic
flow of fuel for trucks. Trucks
not enough, by the way, even to
ensure that their tank divisions.
If the machine were, there was no rubber
for the production of tires.
If millions of tons of fuel, bombs, spare parts, oils and
even a great variety of stuff filed (at the camels, oxen and
donkeys), and even then bombing Urals would be impossible. Bomb
load of German bombers were too small. A pinpricks Urals not
scary.
In general, what is this the question:
Ural "if necessary" can be
paralyze? Hitler comes from the fact that
Industry Urals actually paralyze you do not want that Ural
threat is not that Ural itself will cease production of
weapons. But if, contrary to expectations it will be something
there to produce, then "Could be" him and paralyze ...
Why the optimism?
And where to find that the Urals - the "last
industrial area "of the Soviet Union?" What an ignoramus has
written these words in Hitler's directive?
During the first five-year, Stalin launched
truly a giant construction of industrial objects beyond the
Urals: in Siberia, Kazakhstan, Altai, the Far East. No do not
hide, no one has done this secrets. So, knowing nothing about
our country and its economy, Hitler's strategic plan to defeat
the "last industrial district in the Urals" raids powerful
long-range strategic bombers, connections ... which they were
not.
All the directive number 21 on the operation
"Barbarossa" is easy to explain as follows: group gathered
completely illiterate people who have never served in the army,
the war and the army did not have a clue, they drank until the
madness and drunken delirium wrote perfect nonsense.
That would be a clear and understandable explanation of all,
but here's the problem: Hitler was a man not drinking. And
Field Marshal in his entourage in chronic alcoholism were not
seen. Because no other explanation of emergence of such a
directive I have not. Man the most incredible stupidity, if it
is not struck with schizophrenia, such a document drafted and
signed but could not.

Well, I wonder? That's it! Personally, I became
almost no fan of Mr. Suvorov once I read his book "Icebreaker".
Now my ears do not pull on his works. But, I hope you
understand me?
