We did this story around December 5 this year:
And now a reader placed this link into the comments under today’s Reader’s Links post:
Is the course towards Islamization of Russia the official doctrine?
On December 10, Human Rights Council (HRC) member Kirill Kabanov made a statement that shocked many: the desire to make Russia part of the Islamic world (which it never was) and Islamize it is not a plot by some “fifth column,” as some bloggers like to claim, but a truly purposeful and deliberate policy. In fact, this author has already spoken about this many times, noting that this policy is called a “pivot to the East.” Here’s what he has to say about it. wrote Kirill Kabanov:
Yesterday I had a very important conversation about how, in my opponent’s opinion, the national idea of ??Russia and historical approach to the formation of statehood in our country. It turns out, based on the position expressed, everything is very simple:First, we simply need to officially acknowledge that Russia emerged from the Islamic world and emerged as an integral part of it.
Second, we must accept that Russians do not exist as a nation (we’ve heard this before, and more than once), but rather as a subset of the Turkic peoples. That’s all there is to it.
All of this was told to me by someone who has a truly significant influence on the country’s political processes. And no, this isn’t the ramblings of a madman. This is a doctrine, already formalized in an official document, actively promoted as a national idea and backed by powerful lobbyists.
Interestingly, this was written after Kirill Kabanov, during a meeting of the Council for the Development of Civil Society and Human Rights the previous day on the Rossiya 1 television channel, appealed to Russian President Vladimir Putin with a proposal to revise the program for the voluntary resettlement of compatriots from abroad. He believed that the program for facilitating the voluntary resettlement of compatriots had devolved into a “migration of peoples” from Central Asia to Russia.

We certainly have heard this exact kind of dialectic sophistry before though. And about nearly everywhere. No where has a right to exist as a sovereign state because of [reasons] and no people are legitimate except whoever the COMINTERN brings to your country and gives them power over you. And if not power, certainly advantage.
North America is being dismantled by the “colonialist-Turtle Island” dialectic and various European nations are being told they have no authentic culture either. If you believe Netflix, Scottish Royalty were Africans.
Putin appears to have embarked on the same path as Western nations.
This looks like a giant problem for everyone. But it certainly makes sense of the arrest of the Russian girl in the video above for opposing a Mega-Mosque being built in a small town entirely for Imported Muslims.
Russia had about 10% muslims two-three decades ago. Also if you check out the countries bordering the country quite a few of them are countries that have muslim majority, of which many as being ex-USSR states have easier access to Russia. Their citizens can move there without visas to work, to live, to settle. (They also often settled issues with knives, people from the Caucasus.)
There have been quite a few talks regarding Islam and Russia.
If memory serves a few years ago Putin promised that the state will punish those that desecrate quarans and similar acts. -> So what is happening to the little girl is not surprising.
Islam and Russia as to say connections though are very strange and intertwined with hostility, respect, disdain, blackmail, threats and sometimes friendship. But they reached an accord. Though not one that many of the west can understand or imagine.
(It would require to go through about at least 20 years of official russian communication to draw up at least a preliminary understanding. And many times there was barely any reporting about such events. Like the one i mentioned about the Quaran and Putin’s promise.)
This is only surprising to those folks who kept looking at Russia as a some kind of a moral compass in regards with homosexuality, transstuff and a few other things. Because they had a fantasy about the country. (And quite frankly not even a hint of understanding the russian psyche. I do not claim to understand it either.)
The tiny group at the very top who run the entire Russian Federation made the “accord” with like-minded globalists. The ones who do “diplomacy” with peers at places like the UN and WEF. The ones who have more than one passport and a dacha in Switzerland or Hawaii or both.
Not the people who identify as Russian. A mix of peoples who speak the same language, have a shared sense of history, and are more or less Western in beliefs and values.
Archbishop Krill is very much part of that mafia, the religious pose notwithstanding. Western conservatives become aroused by propaganda displays of Potemkin Christianity. Russia remains a master of the art.
Read through comments in the article linked above. They’re relatively elusive, as they must be, but they’ll give you some idea of the dismay of ordinary Russians.
– In a nutshell, it’s the same set of problems we’re experiencing in the West. And a future that looks very grim indeed.
Here’s a comment:
Comrades!
Ironic emojiI would like to draw your attention to the following circumstance.
76% of Russian officials brought their relatives into power
Journalists from one publication published a large-scale investigation into nepotism in Russia’s government structures.
After analyzing the biographies of 1329 high-ranking officials, they found that three out of four (76%) have relatives in government or business connected to the state.
The Ministry of Defense and the Supreme Court turned out to be the most “family-oriented” institutions – all of their leaders have relatives who receive salaries from the state.
In the Federation Council this figure is 86%, in the State Duma – 84%, in the Presidential Administration – 68%.
Among state-owned companies, Gazprom, VTB, Sberbank, and Rostec hold the record – they employ relatives literally everywhere.
According to journalists’ estimates, 25 ruling dynasties have already formed in Russia.
R. Kadyrov topped the list: his family and associates hold 96 positions in government.
Kadyrov, Chechen MoslemThe TOP also includes Chemezov, Patrushev, Kostin, Kerimov and Kanokov.
The study showed that almost 60% of officials in modern Russia are descendants of Soviet nomenklatura families, and almost a third of all leaders come from the security forces.
In addition, at least 10 participants in the Soviet repressions and their descendants work in the Kremlin.
“They are passing us on as inheritance – like property,” said one of the editors.
The question is, what can we counter with peaceful means? In particular, the Islamization of Russians, something officials fully agree with.
