… This a set-up and the situation is getting more interesting: Long before this just described situation, into the region of former Sudetenland, slowly and secretly a big number of Germans was moving in and illegally were acquiring land and real estates (?!?). At the same time, there grows a cases of collaboration of some Czech people with Germans, who in public media constantly pointing out on alleged crimes of (victorious) Czechs committed against innocent (defeated, and Nazis-indoctrinated) so called Sudeten Germans. And so on, exactly in the spirit of the best traditions of the Czech chauvinism and national myths. …
So again, I just missed something; lucky for me, a link in the Happenings of Bohumil Dolezal caught my attention.
Military exercise called “Enduring Memory” (yes, since the end of Communist oppression, we can now call our exercises by our own language, English) was conducted way back in February by 801st Regiment of Military police, but the tactical aim and target was such interesting of a subject that I cannot resist and had to share this with my readers:
The year is 2013 and the European Union is in total crisis… begins almost realistically the Army Web page and continues:
Since the elections of 2001 and 1999 in the former independent Kingdom of Silesia and stronghold of Communist DDR that seceded from Germany, in the Parliament there sit representatives of neo-Nazis party NPU and DVU. Now, under the influence of Sudeten-German Landmanshaft, over there rose toward the Czech Republic territorial demands according to revision of historic borders of the old Bohemian Kingdom and former Czechoslovakia. But this time – surprisingly – the Czech government did not backed down and the neo-Nazis demands were refused.
This a set-up and the situation is getting more interesting: Long before this just described situation, into the region of former Sudetenland, slowly and secretly a big number of Germans was moving in and illegally were acquiring land and real estates (?!?). At the same time, there grows a cases of collaboration of some Czech people with Germans, who in public media constantly pointing out on alleged crimes of (victorious) Czechs committed against innocent (defeated, and Nazis-indoctrinated) so called Sudeten Germans. And so on, exactly in the spirit of the best traditions of the Czech chauvinism and national myths.
This tactical scenario contains also the re-enactment of Munich Peace Conference. Of course, the scenario is open ended: it all depends if the Czech Army succeeds and chase away contemptuous Germans back where they came from, and then clear the Sudeten region of rest of the German influence, which is the aim of this military Exercise.
I do not know about my kind and loyal readers, but I myself do have a feeling, that someone, in our heroic Army, is ripe for a straightjacket. On one hand, Army conducts hunts for soldiers with allegedly objectionable tattoos, and on the other one, here under the auspices and funds of taxpayers, Army undertakes something so horrendously chauvinistic and so bizarre, that normal thinking person might start to doubt, if the plot of military mentality portrayed in Stanley Kubrick movie Dr. Strangelove he/she thought till now was only some kind of gross exaggeration, and not reality in the minds of our brave and valiant leaders.
