and why Russia is simply obliged to supply Pyongyang with the S-400 system,
able to sober up the US
In ancient Greece, as is known, the Olympic Games were the time of establishing universal peace, when sports competed in place of all the state quarrels. Then, in the epoch of slavery, all state decisions were taken by the aristocratic elite, capable of stopping for a while any war and declaring peace during the games.
In our time, all decisions are made by the financial elite, whose sphere of management is money, i.e. the banking system. And the Olympic Games from amateur status turned into a professional one, thereby becoming an integral part of the business, where each medal means more money. But sport for the majority of people remains a sporting contest and the population of the vast majority of countries looks at them habitually as a peaceful competition, under which the war charge can not be laid.
Nevertheless, during the opening of the Olympic Games in Beijing in 2008, the pro-American authorities in Tbilisi launched military operations against South Ossetia, launching a flurry of fire on Tskhinval. And only Russia's intervention in this conflict did not allow the mad nationalists from Georgia to destroy the population of South Ossetia. What caused great discontent in the West, where the information machine was already working for this war, although NATO soldiers did not express any desire to enter into a war with Russia because of Saakashvili's regime in Tbilisi.
The situation with the 2018 Olympic Games in South Korea's Pyeongchang threatens to exclude Russia from the list of competitors because of "doping", which the Moscow Anti-Doping Commission of the Olympic Committee is trying to impeach Moscow, which was very actively supplied with information by dissident defectors from Russian sport. Of course, on the basis of individual cases of established doping, the entire Russian Olympic team can not be punished. Nevertheless, it is a matter of exactly this outcome, and the Russian authorities in this situation are more like worn-out travelers than leaders ready to defend the interests of the leading sports power. As a result, the Russian Olympic team may be out of the sport. What in fact means a loud slap in the face of Russian sport.
However, to believe in sanctions against Russian athletes as a contraband scandal would be a big fallacy. For the scandal lies a lot of money for which the West is ready to sacrifice not only the national team of the Russian Federation, but also to go on military provocations, trying to drag Russia into a big war.
It's no secret that all sanctions against Russia, anyway, are closed to the Moscow oligarchs, whose accounts in offshore zones look like to banks, primarily the United States, a tidbit that you want to swallow, ousting Russian owners first with travel bans, then to arrest the accounts themselves. Accordingly, the ban on the performance of the Russian team at the Olympics in Pyeongchang will exacerbate the situation with sanctions to the limit, since no one will agree with such a decision in Russia. This kind of inflation of the political situation is most similar to the magnet that attracts US financiers to the poorly lying petrodollars of oligarchs, which can be sue in the wake of a scandal, after which it will be possible to demand the spread of their influence on Russian resources, first of all, the wealth of the storerooms of Siberia.
Of course, Russian oligarchs could show patriotism and urgently transfer these petrodollars to the domestic economy and give it additional overclocking. Only this step the oligarchs will not do, because it is not inherent in financial capital and can be interpreted as weakness. That is why such a sluggish reaction of the Russian authorities to all US political maneuvers, although they clearly see the desire to imprison many Russian politicians in the United States in the image and likeness of how they have already managed to imprison special services for "arms trafficking" or "drug trafficking."
But the Olympic team of Russia is the pride of the whole country, because for their preparation there are thousands of money spent for their preparation, the pain and sweat of the athletes who managed to prepare for a very difficult program, in which they also do not recognize the weak, is worth the pain. Therefore, the removal of the Russian national team will be equivalent to spitting, which the West will direct towards the whole people. What this people just so bear it is unlikely to want.
But at the stage of the US readiness for this spitting, Russia may well take preventive measures that can soothe the entire West, both financiers and those who receive money from them in the Olympic Committee, as well as in its anti-doping affiliates. Since it is not a secret for anybody that the United States is preparing this strike against Russia, Russia should also be responded by the USA, selling, say, to Pyongyang the S-400 systems capable of sobering the US.
