Veterans and children of the Great Patriotic War to the government and the people of Germany
Today, because the German government has decided to deliver deadly weapons to Ukraine, the world has changed - the outlines of a new world war are more than clearly visible. And again it’s Germany! But there are honest people in Germany, antifascists, and we hope that this message reaches you. People, who were born between 1927 and 1945, have the status of “war children” in Russia. This letter can be signed by all those, who survived this war.
The tragedy in Ukraine
We, the last veterans and all of the peoples of Russia, who survived this great and terrible war, are now on the brink of death. Our time is running out. The largest part of our lives we hoped it would end in peace - without the all-destroying hatred. After the Second World War we painstakingly overcame, over the course of long decades, our righteous wrath. We were longing for vengeance for the countless physical and mental wounds, that we’re still carrying in our bodies and our hearts. But most of us have forgiven!
In the end this happened not least for the reason, that for many years Germany demonstrated its regret, its understanding of what happened. And we didn’t just overcome ourselves, but too the voice of the blood of our barbarically exterminated relatives. Exterminated by whom? By the Germans, by the fascists! We have forgiven - corresponding to the laws of human coexistence. Such it was - till 2014.
Streams of blood
Then, in 2014, when everything started in Ukraine, we looked to Germany with hope and to then chancellor Angela Merkel. We could not have imagined that the Germans, after everything they’ve done in Ukraine - after Babi Jar, after the mountains of mutilated corpses -, would still longingly look to the Ukrainian fields, that can still feed Europe today. Or that they, the Germans, who once drenched Crimea, which was promised to them, in blood, still have an interest in turning Crimea into an American and general NATO-base - ideal for attacks on Russia. This would’ve openly aimed for a future war. Because only fools don’t understand reason and purpose of the coup in Ukraine, to which Russia reacted in the only possible way!
But the Germans, they aren’t fools. We Russians know them first hand. Their psychology as “blood brothers” - our blood, that they “calculatingly” shed in streams. We remember their “systematic” methods of “population reduction”. Our population! To this day we’re discovering hidden mass graves of our peaceful citizens in different corners of our once united fatherland where the boot of German fascism fell: In the region Nowgorod, in Kuban, in the region Rostow, in Karelia. In 2021 on the grounds of the Jewish ghetto in Brest in Belarus the remains of hundreds of peaceful citizens were found. The concentration camp Trostenez near Minsk - place of a terrible tragedy - has uncovered the mystery of tens of thousands more tortured and murdered people. We’re speaking of tens of thousands newly discovered victims of Nazism! This blood is still screaming for vengence, while for decades now the memory of barbarically murdered Russian people and the monuments for Russian soldiers, liberators, have been desecrated with impunity. New Nazis are marching in the Baltics and in Ukraine infront of the eyes of the whole “civilized” world.
And Germany, again
But in 2014 we really were convinced that the Germans, in the face of these new Nazi-marches, would be our allies in preventing these atrocities. We were hoping that the Germans would - guided by an elementary consciousness - not take part in the openly fascistic coup in Ukraine. Because the following catastrophy in todays Ukraine was caused by the direct decendents of those that were a special rabble in the German army. Openly, unapologetic! The US-Americans and Canadians just concealed and conserved this devilish legacy, raised its decendents, but the breeding ground of this evil is - Germany! Hitler-Germany! We couldn’t dare believe, that it was Germany which would show these monsters the way again. But we were wrong! Germany has again allowed this fasistic scum to enter the world.
The support of todays Germany - in the face of the new government of Ukraine - for the Bandera-people, for the heirs of the SS division “Galicia”, for UPA- and OUN-thugs and all the other atrocities were just unthinkable for us.
That’s beyond anything human! But you, Germany, have done it and continue to do it! You’re again aiming for the slavic world and this scum - it’s blood of the blood of German Nazism! And again against Russia! Just more inisidous: Our closest brothers, the Ukrainians, are stired up against us. And you know it! You know it as much as we know it! You have murdered a people in this Great War! Yes, we are a people! Your Steinmeier [President and former foreign minister of Germany (SPD)] often writes and says the truth, he who was simultaneously involved in the Kiev-Putsch of 2014 - an essentially fascistic putsch. For the Americans this might not be obvious, but for you it’s more than obvious!
And it’s your pupils that were able to march with torches through Kiev. The living shadow of Nazi-Germany is standing behind all of this. This was just temporarily covered up by a sly diplomacy - “helmets instead of rifles”. But this is it, the “masks have slipped”. That you’re currently delivering German weapons to Ukraine is logical, it follows the logic of your policy of the past decades. Today she’s openly pro-fascistic again. You’ve made this step: German weapons will kill Russians again. The killing continues.
Preparing for world war
In the years of the conflict in Donbass your professional murderers have already killed Russians, at least taught “how to kill them properly”. Now it’s even more despicable - you’re teaching it to blood brothers. The Donbass is on your conscience! Thousands of lives of its peaceful citizens - that is your work again. We’re not concerned about the role the Americans are playing in all of this: There, money is god!
Our veterans of this war, its children, are concerned about the role of the Germans. Because they are the ones who know exactly who makes up the Ukrainian “Nazi-battalions” and who could’ve prevented and stopped this new fascism. But that’s not what you did! Because of this alone you’re again responsible before history. You’re unequivocally part of the preparation of Ukraine for war against Russia. You can’t get around understanding the purpose of everything that happened: from the unconsitutional coup in Kiev to the bloodshed in Donbass.
Essentially it’s about preparation for a third world war. And again about you, the Germans…Germany. From the high German stage in Berlin we’re hearing today: “Russia will pay a high price!!!” A speech of the chancellor of Germany! Unthinkable! We have paid the price already: 27 million of our lives. Is that not enough for you? About what price are you still talking? There’s no house(hold) in Russia, Ukraine and Belarus in which “this price” wasn’t paid. And there’s no house(hold) in Germany that didn’t take part in this terrible, bloody barbarity! Horrible! Beastly!
Today more than 13.000 Russians have already died at the hands of the new Nazis. The public mockery of the genocide of the Russians in Donbass by the German chancellor himself is itself a crime. To such an extent can the lessons of history be neglected and defiled! The most terrible history of the world! Do you want something even worse? This new “Drive to the east” can make it so no second Nuremberg-trials will be held against you, because there just won’t be a humanity. You will not be there!
But a special court, a universal court for you, Germans, is inevitable. For all aggressors, but for you especially. The world will have justice! And we, the last veterans of this terrible war, are leaving this world as witnesses. As witnesses of the prosecution! And today victory will be ours, but those, who died yesterday, or those of us, who’re dying today, are bearing witness to the role of the German people in the history of humankind - the bloody history. German weapons are again in the hands of young Nazis!
Stop!
Letter is from the 27th of February. It was published by the »Spiritual center St. Johannes of Kronstadt« based in Moscow, following the German chancellors declaration of historic German rearmament and deliveries of German weapons to Ukraine on the same day. On the 6th of March the Russian Veterans Union posted a link to the article on its website stating they’re signing “every word” of the letter.
As a German this is an incredibly tough one. The pain, anger and disappointment of these people is palpable. Just imagine - a people invades your homeland, brutally and industrially slaughters 27 fucking million people, because they were just subhuman obstacles for the imperial ambitions of that people. Imagine experiencing the terror, the fear and pain of this war, the sacrifice to push this unspeakable evil out of your country. Imagine having the strength to forgive this unforgivable horror and crime. And then imagine seeing this very same people arming and supporting literal Nazis on your border again, openly talking about destroying the Russian people…again. And imagine seeing not only no resistance of these German people, but watching them euphorically cheer for this madness.
I’ve never been more ashamed of this nation than after reading this letter. “German weapons will kill Russians again.” Fuck me…
Meanwhile, today our Green foreign minister is increasing the pressure to deliver heavy weapons to Ukraine and to provide training. I quote: “Now is not the time for excuses, now is the time for creativity and pragmatism. […] Ukraine needs heavy weapons.” To the sound of millions cheering for her, demanding her for chancellor. Rheinmetall is offering to deliver the first German tanks within 6 weeks.
Disgusting.
