At the end of August 2002, before the new school year, a whole
a series of meetings at different levels, various meetings, commissions. C

parliamentary representatives, academics and members

- the mountain gave birth to a mouse. A mountain of meetings, participants, a mountain of degrees,
positions and titles (up to “nowhere further”, further
"guarantor").  Twelve-year-old - this main “otherness” of ours
to the “civilized world” - it was decided due to the cool attitude
teachers, and public opinion in general, should not be allowed to move,
and put it aside. So, “for the future.” And the second ide-fixe, the idea of "one
state exam", greeted by universities, following a quiet general
sabotage, a lot of specific counterarguments, also moved away. "On
"experimental stage". 

So was it necessary to stir up another reform mess?  And for what?
then we need as much as “400 billion in 10 years”?  Calm down.
Leave me alone.    Relax!   Take a break from your "reforms" - in
most are headless, senseless,destructive.  After

teeth."   In the “regions”, among those divided in the early 90s
"subjects of the federation", the reverse process of "enlargement" began and
"mergers".  So was it necessary to initiate “reforms”??? (With new
"winds" from the Ministry of Education and from the field of medicine, isn't it?
I feel like we've already seen this! Just recently!! Although this
replica in a text from three years ago.  But the meaninglessness and
futility of “reforms”, downright criminal nature
reforms are becoming more and more visible!)

After the past meetings, which, as we see, turned out to be a mouse
fiddling around, I still want to stop at one of them, from 2002.
Prime Minister Kasyanov looked into textbooks... In history textbooks... And
told us.  The President "advised".  "Indicated."  The form, they say,
there is, but the content... Let's add, Vladimych, first about the quantity

here you have various others and “ours” and “yours”, various random ones
“scribblers”, and even overseas authors with textbooks of the same “History”.
Supported by Soros and the like. Oh those school books
stories! Permanent scandal! 

The President spoke about the indignation of veterans with a history textbook
Dolutsky.  Another time, M. Kasyanov quoted the
“with surprise” in history textbooks terms: “working class”,
"labor intelligentsia" and some others.  Here on these
terms, as well as the minister’s surprise, let’s stop.

But let us turn to other terms that “surprised” the minister. What do we want
afraid of the term "titular nation"?  Premier -objects... Yes,
this fits well with the policy of the last ten years on
liquidation of the Russian people! Eliminate the nation by eliminating the column
in the passport... Perhaps even the Nazis would not have thought of this!!
It’s good that at least other nations are raising their voices. That rare case now,
when we support Shaimiev and Shaimievites. But Zhirinovsky,
but Volkovich was WRONG again when at one of the meetings
stated on this score: there should not be a column about
nationality. So that, supposedly, no one has any
complexes.  Well, well!  It's your own nationality that can
become a complex!  So much so that there will be a desire to hide it?  This
what nationality?   It seems to be the opposite: everyone is proud of their
nationality, whatever it may be. But no, it turns out, not all.

Berlioz asked with great relief and respect."

So, as a “historian” I do not respect and do not recognize Kasyanov.
He didn't like the term "working class"... 

I immediately remembered the semi-fantastic novel by V. Teitelboim
"Internal War", about the fascist coup in Chile in 1973.
There Pinochet is preparing a message about the coup,and American
the adviser (Dr. Frankenstein!) asks what he will write
about the working class?    Pinochet: "I will not allow you to use
communist terms.  I will eliminate this class." Doctor
was surprised and asked how?  And I, he says, don’t
I'll mention it. And didn't mention it!!

Yes, yes!  Following the Russians - in passports - they are trying to eliminate
all over the world the working class, and work, work. "Not mentioning." A

"labor exchange" (which we had until 1930), or, let's say,

In those same last days of August, “developing” a suddenly flared
the prime minister's interest in textbooks, the helpful central press, RTR
and ORT, set out their content in terms of “modern history”.
It was mentioned several times that “newest” ends with

"passed" it. (Yes, even if only using Kasyanov’s textbooks!) 

Let's summarize. As is customary at the end of the lesson (history, let us remind you).
Again we are convinced by the example of M.K.  and other ministers-
capitalists: “History teaches that its lessons are ignored
studying." ("But these rascals don't want to know anything, don't want anything
study!") No, events do not follow the famous saying:
tragedy is a farce.  Often it's the other way around.  In the recent "93rd" execution
parliament was a tragedy on an international scale. AND EARLIER, in
"91", the events around the SAME building turned out to be a farce. First -
farce, then tragedy.  Oh, this “terrible” State Emergency Committee!  But ours

to the population.  They talked about his rating being 2%. Wrong! Minus 2.
Minus 80. Minus 95! Is there no such thing as a negative rating?  We have -
it happens. For him, it happens! Was!!

But to this type, simply hated by everyone - and suddenly the Order "For

his actions. Not apostolic acts. Not godly, on the contrary, -
ungodly. "Successor"... What?  Crimes? And crimes
continue! Criminal"reforms-perestroika". 

He is trying to lean towards religion. You can lean against it, lean on it
- no!!  You cannot build your life on lies, on religion. Traditional,
like, religion?!  For you, an atheist!  Is it the same for me?
Tell me the legend about the Jewish savior. About the Immaculate Conception
and the resurrection of the Jews.  "Blessed is he who believes."  Who is sinful?
he is blundering around and is about to deceive the big and small again!!

The state needs an idea. “A holy place is never empty”? It happens
as we see.  The place of ideology is still empty.  Lean here,
however, they intended to.  Towards religion.  To what doesn't exist. Like,
there is and, it seems, there is not. And it’s more likely not to be than to be. "Savior".
Let's save ourselves! Get up from your knees in your "temple", people!

"Grapevine, it's not your fault!"

But, let's say, one cannot help but believe in the virgin birth - we all

including the President of the Russian Federation.  who sits his
due date, and sometimes, on September 1 or on a major date,
pays attention to history.

Then, in 2002, something caused Kasyanov’s indignation.

Up todestruction and sharp decline in the economy - more than in
those 40s!  And this is not “history” at all. This is real. Real

So what do we have with “summing up”?  And just - “don’t.”
“Don’t sum it up just yet - our furthest road is still
ahead."  This protracted Moscow performance is far from

August-September 2001 

P.S. What is considered “recent history”?  The question, presumably,
remains open.   But once again: you are Kasyanov, Ivanov,
Matvienko, Gref and others - all of you are not “history” yet, not even
"newest".  Until they "hit".  (However, some got stuck!
Chubais with a Xerox box, “writer” Koch “with co-authors”...)

Well, since when could events be considered “newest”? For
ten years before the current one, let’s say. Decide by law
or at the level of the Academy of Sciences. The question is not idle or funny -
so that “at the top” they don’t look “about” (by September)
textbooks and “didn’t get out” then, really, with stupid
proposals.

By the way.  Chilean schools have canceled the study of native history
the last thirty years. Timeless time. The centaur galloped along.

P.P.S.  Beginning of 2004.  This is, indeed, what Kasyanov becamehistory... Gone to... 

So what? What does history teach? Really - nothing!
