Edward Limonov is a complex and a contradictory figure. One of the greatest modern Russian writers, today he is more famous as a politician.
In the outgoing year, Limonov has made several steps towards Islam and Muslims. What has driven him to this? What is his message to the Muslims of Russia and the world? What does he think about Islam and actual problems related to it?
These are the questions we tried to clarify from him directly.
- Recently you published the notorious article “The Islam Card”. As far as we know, your positive attitude towards Muslims and their religion was greatly influenced by your prison experience when you were jailed in Lefortovo in a cell with the Chechen Aslanbek Alkhazurov, which was written in one of your books. Were there other factors that prompted you to look at Islam with sympathy?

An National Bolshevik Party official said Thursday that his party believed the Kremlin was involved in an attack last month on its members.
“A source in the police told us that Nikita Ivanov, who works for the presidential administration, personally went to free the suspects detained after the attack on NBP activists,” said Vladimir Abel, NBP deputy chairman. (more…)

It is a bad sign when headlines start to get confusing. Didn’t I read this before, a couple of weeks, or maybe a month, ago? Did an underpaid hack, suffering from a hangover on a slow news day, decide to do some creative recycling? Or are news stories starting to run together in my head for some other reason — perhaps because certain things are happening over and over again?
I had that feeling of deja vu when I read about the Monday attack on National Bolshevik Party activists. As many as 30 people, armed with baseball bats and, according to some eyewitnesses, with gas pistols firing rubber bullets, attacked a meeting of opposition youth groups attended by NBP members. At least three people were seriously injured. I felt like I had read this news item a couple of times before. No wonder: well-organized thugs had already attacked NBP activists three times this year, in March and in January during their meetings and once, in February, when a group of activists was returning from a rally.

Masked men wielding baseball bats and gas pistols, several of whom were wearing T-shirts bearing the emblem of the pro-Kremlin youth group Nashi, attacked a group of National Bolshevik Party activists Monday night, activists who witnessed the incident said Tuesday.
The attack, which witnesses said lasted only a few minutes, left three people hospitalized. Opposition youth activists and political leaders accused Nashi of carrying out a well-planned attack against the Kremlin’s political opponents and warned of an escalating conflict. Nashi, or Us, which has condemned radical youth groups as “fascists” and proclaimed them to be its primary political foes, denied any connection to the attack. (more…)

// Party Life
Yesterday, the Moscow Mayor’s Office held a conference on “The Activities of a Responsible Opposition in Revolutionary Conditions.” Members of opposition parties and movements amicably condemned the policies of Vladimir Putin and called for a battle against the ruling regime. But they were unable to agree on the forms of that battle. Yury Chernega reports.

// Who was behind the attack on the National Bolsheviks
Patriot Games
Late Monday night, an attack was made on radical leftist youth in Moscow. They were shot with stun guns and beaten with baseball bats. Four members of the National Bolshevik Party were hospitalized. The victims are blaming the pro-presidential Nashi (Ours) group for the attack, although that group denies any involvement. At the police station where the attackers were taken, all information about them has been declared secret and the attackers themselves released. Kommersant has been able to obtain a list of the arrestees, however. It can be gathered from an examination of that list that the attackers were part of an organized group of fans of the Spartak team that has been suspected of having ties with Nashi.

The month of June was full of tragical events for National-Bolsheviks Party. On June 17 commando of special police forces have stormed Party headquarters at Maria Ulianova Street. It took them two and half hours to break five metal doors behind which 15 National-Bolsheviks have had barricaded themselves. Four of them have had time to cut their veins, protesting against that brutal eviction by the police.

My partner and I are engaged in a semantic argument. At the heart of it is the question, what is the regime doing? Specifically, is it pissing itself or pissing on us? I think the way the authorities are acting betrays a great fear of us, the people, who are growing increasingly dissatisfied with the way things are. In other words, they are pissing themselves. She thinks the actions of the authorities show great disdain for us, the people. In other words, they are pissing on us. I think change is in the air; she thinks we’ll all be sorry. (more…)

On Friday, a number of vehicles carrying several dozen police, at least one court marshal and, it appears, several firefighters from the Emergency Situations Ministry pulled up to a residential building in southwestern Moscow. They spent several hours using welding equipment to cut through two steel doors leading to a basement space, where they ultimately detained 15 members of the National Bolshevik Party. What was this about? The police were carrying out a decision made by the Moscow Arbitration Court back in March ordering the NBP to vacate the premises, which were rented in the name of a fictitious company called Honest Entrepreneurs. The exact legal grounds for the decision were unclear. By all accounts, the NBP had been an exemplary tenant. It paid its bills on time, and its members had turned a semi-abandoned space into a habitable basement. (more…)
