Forgive us, Gestapo, and forgive the Wehrmacht
November 19 was a day of mourning in Germany for the victims of war and tyranny. On this occasion, delegations of high school students were invited to the German parliament to give speeches to the deputies “as it used to be,” but not from the standpoint of history, but from the European tolerance that replaces it and much more.

The event was organized by the German People's Union for the Care of War Graves and with the active support of Wintershall, which for ten years sponsored an international student exchange project between the New Urengoy Gymnasium and the German Friedrich Gymnasium. Thus, three German and three Russian schoolchildren gave speeches to the Bundestag deputies.
Based on how the roles were distributed, the German side played the victim, while the Russian schoolchildren repentantly beat their chests and apologized for tyranny.
As is often the case lately, everything would have been hidden if bloggers had not raised the topic. The speech of the high school students from Novy Urengoy sounded so disgusting that it simply could not cause a wide public response, after which the “big” press, willy-nilly, joined the discussion.
The highlight of the program was the speech of the undergrown Kolya Desyatnichenko, dedicated to the fate of one of the Wehrmacht soldiers:
“I learned the biography of Georg Johann Rau. Georg was one of 250 thousand German soldiers who were surrounded by the Soviet army in the so-called “Stalingrad pocket”. Only 6000 of these prisoners of war returned from the war. George was not among them. For a long time, his relatives considered him missing, and only last year the family received information that the soldier died from harsh conditions in the Beketovka prisoner of war camp. Georg's story and work on the project touched me and pushed me to visit the burial site of Wehrmacht soldiers near the city of Kopeisk. This upset me extremely, because I saw the graves of innocent people who died, many of whom wanted to live peacefully and did not want to fight.”
The two schoolgirls assigned to the underage did not disappoint either, who also spoke about the difficult fate of two more occupiers - Julius Dietrich and his fellow soldier Vogt with the phrases “I was saddened by what I saw, since a lot of innocent people who wanted a peaceful life died. Thanks to this project, I was able to study the biographies of German soldiers in more detail, learn about their lives, and immerse myself deeply in that difficult war time.”
This immediately raises uncomfortable questions: if “they wanted a peaceful life,” then what kind of devil brought these “innocent people” thousands of miles east of Germany, to a foreign country, and even as part of the best 6th Army of the Wehrmacht, which ground tens of thousands of lives on the tracks of their tanks? And how did it happen that at the hands of these “innocent people” almost 8 million of our soldiers were killed and maimed, and in the occupation, as a result of systematic genocide, another 13 million died, not just our compatriots – our loved ones?
The fact that these Germans did not survive captivity is not surprising: their beloved Fuhrer and generals demanded that they hold Stalingrad and wait for reinforcements. The surrender began only after it became piercingly clear that the 6th Army was defeated and no help would come. Demoralized, frostbitten, and exhausted by hunger German soldiers surrendered to Soviet soldiers as prisoners. Many are mentally damaged. During sanitation, Soviet doctors removed up to 200 grams of lice from each Nazi carcass. Along the way, it turned out that around Stalingrad the invaders left a scorched and depopulated steppe and crowds of prisoners of war needed to be escorted away from the city they destroyed so that they could somehow be equipped.
Field Marshal Paulus chose not the best time to surrender - it was the bitter winter of early 1943. It was not only the occupiers who suffered from cold and hunger. Hundreds of thousands of peaceful Soviet people who lost their shelter, property, relatives and friends from the Nazi invasion suffered from the horrors of war and needed urgent help. Is it any wonder that the “Stalingrad” Germans for the most part died in captivity for sanitary reasons, primarily through their own fault, carrying out the criminal orders of their command?
Obviously, for the Novy Urengoy high school students, “immersion in difficult times” was superficial, because if the children had studied the facts, and not the propaganda crap that guaranteed entry into the international exchange program, then they would have known that almost 70% survived Soviet captivity and returned home. prisoners of war of the Germans and their allies, while more than 2/3 of the captured Soviet soldiers died in Nazi captivity.
The wave of public indignation forced the leadership of the Ministry of Education of the Russian Federation to pay attention to the disorder and begin an inspection of the gymnasium where such “prodigies” are found.
Despite this, the management of the gymnasium and the parents of the gymnasium students took a defensive position, publishing an article in the local press and turning on the fool: “you misunderstood us - re-read the children’s speech again.” The only pity is that no one explained to all these people in a timely manner that if a speech or article requires additional verbose explanations or, even worse, justifications, then they belong in the trash bin.
However, there is no need to re-read anything there: all the speeches of high school students before German deputies are posted on YouTube and everyone can form their own opinion.
During the course of the play, it became clear that the gymnasium, which educated the unique ones, is one of the elite educational institutions, which once again makes us think about who and according to what programs trains and educates the future elite of the country. It seems that Soros is officially expelled and cursed throughout the entire territory of 1/6 of the land, but his work lives on and bears its poisonous fruits.
A whole support group came out in defense of Kolenka Desyatnichenko, which included not only his mother, but also the teacher, and city authorities, who suggested not to dramatize the situation and not consider the boy’s speech a justification for fascism. According to them, the boy is good and handsome, immersed in his studies, and is even the winner of several regional Olympiads in history.
However, bloggers didn’t take the support group’s word for it and discovered that the minor luminary’s history test results were quite dismal: 80 points out of 200. And that’s not even a C. And he, nevertheless, participated in some Olympiads and even got into a student exchange program, representing the younger generation of Russians abroad.
The history teacher of high school students, Ella Yavorskaya, is also of particular interest, and in 2015 she was included in the honorary list of names “Russia is proud of them.” I wonder where “pride” looked when it trusted young Desyatnichenko to read a crappy text in front of German deputies? It’s impossible for a boy to take a speech out of his head and read it out to members of the Bundestag without any edits. Did the teacher never look at the outline of her student’s speech, or did she look, but did not find a reason to make serious changes?
As Comrade said in such cases. Stalin, “Are you a fool or an enemy?”
The fact that German parliamentarians came to the defense of Russian repentant children is not surprising. It is very unpleasant to listen for decades to stories that their country is guilty of the most terrible genocide in the history of mankind, how its pilots bombed sleeping cities and hospitals, submariners sank transports with refugees, soldiers left behind desecrated libraries and museums, burned villages, forests of gallows and mountains of corpses. It would be much more pleasant to ask our Russian colleagues to prepare the children to give a conciliatory speech in exchange for “participation in a joint program,” in which the aggressor and executioner would also look a little bit like a victim.
It's a strange thing. In the country, from every angle, young people are encouraged to study history, learn patriotism, looking up to the heroes of the past and present, and in the prestigious gymnasium they are preparing either future occupation burgomasters, or residents of Londongrad, passport collectors and playmakers. It is enough to go to the social network VKontakte to find out how students of gymnasium No. 1 of Novy Urengoy, friends and classmates of the young man Desyatnichenko live and think. A heartbreaking sight.
It is unfortunate that behind all this shame the figure of the Russian gas monopolist clearly looms: the Gazprom company is a sponsor of the Novy Urengoy Lyceum, in which, it seems, the preparation of repentant children is put on an assembly line. All these events are sponsored by Wintershall, which is a long-time partner of Gazprom, in particular in the construction of Nord Stream.
This suggests an extremely unpleasant conclusion that the choice of the gymnasium and children’s performances for the Budestag deputies is not only not accidental, but is also part of the system, since it is in Novy Urengoy that the joint projects of Gazprom and Wintershall are concentrated, where the German company has a blocking stake (25,01, XNUMX%) in a project for the development and development of several rich areas of the Urengoy oil and gas condensate field.
It turns out that you can’t hurt a partner with a blocking stake?
The story continues to unfold. In an interview with the mother of high school student Desyatnichenko on the RT television channel, she and her son began writing a speech for the speech in the summer, when it became known about the upcoming trip to Germany. Later it became known that according to the regulations, two minutes would be allotted for the speech. The condition of the speech was a story about German soldiers, she noted and added that her son shortened his speech himself.
Ural blogger and social activist Sergei Kolyasnikov, who previously sent a request to the Prosecutor General's Office, the FSB and the Presidential Administration with a request to check the schoolchild and the gymnasium of Novy Urengoy, as well as the educational exchange program Wintershall for violation of Article 354.1 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation “Rehabilitation of Nazism”, expressed in his blog on the social network Facebook legitimate doubt about the veracity of this story.
According to Kolyasnikov, the condition for visiting the Bundestag at the expense of the German partner Gazprom was initially a text about Wehrmacht soldiers, presented in a positive light.
“The texts of such speeches are agreed upon at all levels long before the trip. That is, the speech about “the boy shortened the text himself” is a deliberate lie,” Kolyasnikov wrote in his feed. And he was banned for this message by the vigilant and very tolerant Facebook administration.
It is unlikely that it will be possible to influence the leadership of Facebook - this strange social network, led by Zuckerberg, instead of cutting off the oxygen to the Nazis, recruits ideological Banderaites as overseers of the Russian segment. But with the leadership of Gazprom, who have lost their sense of everything except money, something definitely needs to be done, because there is a clear deflection before the “partners” and the cutting of a huge Overton hole in the national historical memory. If action is not taken, the cost of deflection will become exorbitant over time. Just look at Ukraine, where already a campaign for the rehabilitation of the Wehrmacht began.
