Snowball of the war

July 19,2014 13:12

I do not a pacifist, in other words, I do not think that we should not fight at war. If you are attacked, you must defend, either the assailant will kill you, or you will kill him. Anyway, it seems to me that when the war was still in embryonic stage, in the so-called “latent” phase, it can be prevented. Therefore, it is necessary that the politicians and intellectuals of both sides be extremely discreet, wise, and tolerant for not increasing the snowball of mistrust, mutual offense, and hatred.

Unfortunately, in late 80’s, we did not display such high qualities with Azerbaijan. All kinds of references about the Kremlin, Central Committee and the “KGB”, who were and are still interested that we become hostile with each other, are irrelevant. The poor dancers, i.e. brainless neighbors are bothered by Moscow. Equally absurd is the kindergarten style argument about who started the first. This is not a kindergarten; thousands of people are dying here.

Ukraine, Russia and the West also had the opportunity to start a war last fall. If its “Eurasian” projects (which we also trampled) were not so fundamental for Russia. If Ukrainians could “freeze” nationalist passions in their country. If the West had not “instigated”. If…

Recent events obviously exacerbated the situation in the world, Ukraine, literally, is in fire, and now the United States and Russia are intimidating with direct intrusion, the snowball is increasingly growing. The war is also on in the Middle East countries, Arabs and Israelis cannot achieve peace for a few decades. Every other day, Azerbaijan also is intimidating to resume war. But whether it is Azerbaijan. Whether Russia does not intimidate us through Aliyev’s lips, saying, look, if you do not behave yourself well, we would set Azerbaijan on you. And our cautious authorities and political forces “behave themselves well”. However, I’m not sure that so we would avoid war.

And maybe we should not so cringle before Russians and try to be more independent, more responsible for own country and its security. Of course, it can be followed by “punishments”, including by the war resumed “by the hands of Azerbaijan”. I do not know, maybe what I said seems an adventure, but maybe it’s worth of waging the war as much as we can, and then try to independently regulate the problems with the neighbors.

Otherwise, living so bowed causes quite a great discomfort.
