Activists placed in the
centre of the city, not far from regional executive committee, posters with
pictures of the German–Soviet military parade in 1939 and compared the two
regimes, the Soviet and the Nazi ones.
“In recent years the Victory Day is
acquiring more and more traits of a religious cult, with an icon screen,
religious processions, and which is the most important thing, with an
uncritical assessment of the role of the Soviet Union in the Second World War,” readers of charter97.org write. “In the USSR the ideology was
harping on about “the treacherous attack of Hitler” and defence of the gains of
the Great October revolution by the Soviet people. Now nothing is said about
the mythical gains of socialism for some reason. But praises to Russian
militarism are gaining momentum, the joy of Russia’s largest seizures of
territories in Europe is coming to the fore, and what is pitied are not the
millions of victims, but the fact that the achievements of those expansion have
been lost. The events in Ukraine have demonstrated the desire of today’s
chekists in power to have revenge.”
Germany and the Soviet Union are equally to blame for
the bloodshed. Bolshevism and Nazism, which were on a level by their cruelty
and bloodlust, used Belarus as an arena in the battle for world domination. In
September 1939 Brest became the place where a joint parade of Wehrmacht troops
and the Red Army. Bolsheviks and Nazi were partners. After 1945 Bolsheviks were
successfully doing the things the Nazi had been doing in Belarus, Ukraine and
other countries: deported hundreds thousands of people to GULAG, destroyed
culture, executed the national elite.
The Nazism was defeated and condemned. Bolshevism
(Communism) still hasn’t been.
