The Internet cafe is located in the building.SERPUKHOV, Moscow Region — Yury Chervochkin had no Internet connection at his apartment in this industrial town 100 kilometers south of Moscow where he lived with his mother and younger brother.

I hate school and school teachers

Russian school

I deeply hated my school. I remember as I walked in early mornings, half-asleep, stepping into muddy grounds of Poperetchnaia Street towards my school Number Eight. We have lived at Saltovski settlement, outskirts of Kharkov, Ukraine. Scrambled eggs stuffed into my stomach in hustle were suffocating me. Red necktie of soviet pioneer, galoshes on my feet, long coat, fur cap on my head, portfolio full of books, I looked as a clown. I hated myself. I thought about going back home, about lying on my divan and having a deep sleep. But it was impossible, because of my mother. She would not let me back in. She wanted me to be educated person.

Glory to the party!

Monday, December 20th, 2004

1.So, the V congress of our party took place. Moscow’s police and the special services breathed with relief and got sleep at last. Above (somewhere above) obviously the decision was taken not to counteract us, avoid a confrontation with us. One journalist accredited on the congress expressed the opinion that the power took seriously my announcement on a November 24th press conference that “the congress will be carried out even if we’re going to be shoot at”. We proved the firmness of our organization, we turned out to be stronger than ever the Russian Popular Unity was in 1999 when they were not allowed to have a congress and the delegates obediently returned home. That trick didn’t work with us. The congress took place and demonstrated our strength. About eight hundred national-bolsheviks declared about their strength in Moscow on November 28th, 29th, 30th and December 1st.  (more…)

Putin should give us warm coats

Friday, December 10th, 2004

Vladimir Putin1) President Putin has no ideology. For his personal usage he is practicing belief in Supremacy of Russian Leaders Power. No matter how leader is named: Tzar or president or general secretary.

2) President Putin believe that Russian people are his subjects, not fellow citizens. Although Putin may call them “citizens,” he relates to him as subjects.

3) President Putin is arrogant towards his subjects. He never ever asked their opinion about important question of nation’s life. Even more: he aggressively doesn’t want to hear their opinions: Putin’s State Duma voted unanimously for such harsh procedures of public referendum that to stage a referendum in Russia is practically impossible.

What is that all hustle about

Friday, November 26th, 2004

November 22, early morning:
According to friend of mine, Ukranian politician, Russian Government have sended about two milliard dollars only at first presidential vote of Ukranian elections. 870 million dollars of those two billions were money due to Russia as a payment for Russsian gas. Russian professionals of elections proudly have made a fortune at first tour of Ukranian election. Notorious specialist of dirty tricks Gleb Pavlovski alone earned 24 million dollars, according to my source.

I am writing on the very eve of second round of Ukranian elections, when two thirds of ballots are counted and official results are about one percent for Mr. Yanukovitch ahead of Mr. Yushchenko. I am writing in the middle of pause suddenly announced by Central Electoral Commition of Ukraine, a pause in counting of ballots. When it is a pause announced in Eastern Europe country, one should be aware that something is going wrong for the government. And government hopes that during pause it can do something to help itself: to cheat people of course. (more…)

Fellow, named Surkov

Friday, October 15th, 2004

SurkovFellow, named Surkov, have addressed to nation huge piece of words, two entire pages of them, swarming as worms. 360 millimeters high and 560 millimeters wide. I am talking of course about Surkov’s now-famous interview to “Komsomolskaia Pravda” in its issue of September 29. Interview is intended to explain to Russian people, those who are readers of yellow newspaper Komsomolskaya Pravda Putin’s programme. Because our monarch Vladimir Putin have sended to his subjects his personal message by his personal footman Surkov.

Surkov is 40 years old, educated, graduated from “Institute of Steel” and from “Institute of International Affaires.” So he is educated footman, who worked in succession for Bank Menatep, for Yukos and Alfa Bank, then from 1999 Surkov is appointed to Putin’s Administration. Although born in willage Solntsevo in Lipetsk Region, he is not a man of people, but President’s man. He is probably very proud of himself, coming from village into Kremlin’s offices and halls. I bet he is enormously proud of himself.

The member of the NBP Central Committee Sergei Fomchenkov is answering at the instance of Edward Limonov.

Nazbol Sergei Fomchenkov1. Could you present us the National-Bolshevik Party, its ideology and aims?

The National-Bolshevik Party now represents an acting political organization with 10 years of history of struggle, counting about 12000 members, having more than 50 regional departments around Russia. The party members are mainly the youth(15-30 years old), people discontent with their social position, marginals, nonordinary personalities with literary and artistic propensity, even “hereditary” revolutionaries. On the whole all the strata of society, different nationalities, religions are represented.

Our ideology is based on the works of such theorists of national-bolshevism as Ustryalov, Agurski, the works of Edward Limonov. We also borrow the ideas of current importance from Lenin, Mussolini, Mao and others.

Our aim is to come to power in Russia by means of National Revolution. We aspire to the establishment of the national and social justice in Russia, to the complete replacement of the ruling class - the power of functionaries and former nomenclature elite removal, redistribution and nationalization of property.
