Чтоб уже ни у кого не оставалось сомнений насчёт того, кто спонсирует наших правозащитников:

 

на странице Фонда Сахарова они сами признаются, что получают поддержку Агентства США по международному развитию (USAID), Фонда Джексона (США), Фонда Сахарова (США). См. в самом низу скриншота.

 

 

Идём дальше. Кто спонсирует сайт "Права человека в России"? В разное время проект был поддержан правительством Швейцарии (при содействии Ассоциации "Дорога Свободы"), Правозащитным фондом "За гражданское общество", Фондом Форда, Программой поддержки общественных инициатив, Институтом "Открытое общество" (Фонд Сороса), фонд National Endowment for Democracy.
 

Фонд "Мемориал" (это те, которые врут про репрессии). Фонд "Мемориал" (это те, которые врут про репрессии). Американские спонсоры: Фонд Сороса, Фонд Форда, Эдвард Клайн и Издательство им. Чехова ( тоже США), Фонд Джексона, Колумбийский университет, Фонд поддержки демократии, Фонд им. Бредли, Фонд Гугенхейма, Общественный архив рассекреченных материалов.

Фонд "Евразия". Основное финансирование от Агентства США по Международному Развитию (USAID). Главный офис фонда - в Вашингтоне, Округ Колумбия.

Горбачёв-Фонд, он же The International Non-governmental Foundation for Socio-economic and Political Studies (The Gorbachev-Foundation). Имеет представительствa в США и других странах. Получает деньги от Корпорации Карнеги (Нью-Йорк), см. скриншот справа под заглавием "Новые релизы". Хотя это и не совсем правозащитники, но по степени вредительства фонд Горбачёва им не уступает. Например, недавно он выпустил книгу В. Д. Соловья «Русская история: новое прочтение» (М.: АИРО-XXI, 2005. — 320 с.), где автор доказывает генетически обусловленную неполноценность русских по сравнению с западоидами. Мол, никогда нам не стать людьми, т.к. наша варварская культура у нас в крови. Мы-то думали, что такие идеи погибли с фашизмом, но, видать, поторопились.

С гордостью показывает Горбачёв на своей странице, кто его поздравил с днём рожденья. Например, известная русофобка Елена Боннер ("правозащитница", жена Сахарова; см. скриншот), сектант Сри Чимной (на сайте его назвали просто "борцом за мир"), несколько помощников в разрушении СССР - Г. Коль, М. Тэтчер, Дж. Буш-ст., Генри Киссинджер и Шеварнадзе. Но список, в общем-то коротенький. И русских в нём, слава Богу, нет.

Зачем России НПО?

2006

Президент Путин: "Российские НПО - дело исключительно самих россиян".

На прошлой неделе центральные СМИ опубликовали заявление Центра общественных связей ФСБ о том, что после разоблачения четырех британских шпионов, один из которых занимался распределением грантов среди российских некоммерческих организаций, ФСБ проверит правозащитные организации, получающие деньги у зарубежных грантодателей.

В чем же причина таких мер и почему Президент с самого начала так жестко комментировал необходимость закона об НПО?

Казалось бы, ну получают люди деньги из Конгресса Вашингтона или Бундестага, ну проявили власти заграничных государств добрую волю и организовали какое-то количество рабочих мест для российских граждан. Что в этом плохого? Тем более, что небезызвестный фонд Сороса отложился в умах миллионов наших сограждан как фонд содействия России: о том, что Сорос "прославился" во многих странах своей подрывной деятельностью, многие россияне даже и не подозревают.

Мало кто осознает, в чем именно состоит опасность подобных общественных и некоммерческих организаций. По данным ФСБ, сегодня на территории Российской Федерации функционируют тысячи неправительственных организаций, из которых только около 10 процентов имеют официальную регистрацию Минюста. Большинство из них созданы и финансируются под патронажем правительственных и общественных организаций США и их союзников по НАТО.

Объяснить вред и даже опасность теперь уже сложнее, чем просто их запретить...

И все же. Первое: все некоммерческие организации, несмотря на их "разношерстность", четко структурированы и, как говорится, "заточены" под конкретную деятельность в различных сферах государства - образование, экономика, ВПК, в сферах высоких технологий, медицине, обществе и т. д. Второе: США в финансировании различных некоммерческих организаций, в том числе и правозащитных фондов, занимает лидирующие позиции, и решение, кому давать деньги, а кому нет, четко зависит от того, собирается ли проситель гранта отстаивать правильно и истинно демократические интересы.

Вот несколько примеров. Американский совет преподавателей русского языка и литературы (АСПРЯЛ) проводит исследования и разрабатывает программы и учебные материалы для российских школьников. Несложно представить, что за учебные материалы могут получить наши дети от этой организации, чья миссия состоит в содействии развитию демократии и гражданского общества, естественно, строго американского образца.

А вот латвийский комитет по правам человека не будет никогда получателем какого-либо гранта, поскольку отстаивает интересы русскоязычных школьников и их права обучаться на родном языке. Это неинтересно. Куда интереснее фонд Брауна, который финансировался правительством и министерством обороны США и занимался в России содействием конверсии оборонной промышленности, другими словами, помогая вместо танков и самолетов делать какие-то кастрюли и что-то там еще подобное...

В этой же нише работает и Фонд солдатских матерей, для которого сам факт существования Российской армии - это зло. А американский фонд гражданских исследований и развития создан для поддержки ученых и инженеров. Он занимается тем, что обеспечивает работой лучшие умы России, но уже, естественно, на благо других государств. Собственно, все слышали об "оттоке российских мозгов за границу". Кстати, российские ученые - это особая статья дохода в правительствах разных иностранных государств. Например, у нас действует как минимум четыре только германских фонда, чья направленность - научная деятельность.

Уже сам факт существования фондов, финансируемых из-за рубежа, вызывает вопрос: а какой, собственно, у них интерес, если организации не коммерческие, т. е. не стремятся получить выгоду, выраженную в каком-то денежном эквиваленте.

А интерес иной и более масштабный! Грантодателям необходимо получить как можно больше информации о государстве изнутри (что еще дороже, чем деньги) и затем пытаться влиять на политические и общественные процессы.

Госдепартамент США неожиданно бурно прореагировал с самого начала обсуждения поправок к закону об НПО, потребовав в ультимативном тоне немедленно приостановить принятие этих поправок. При этом Госдеп недвусмысленно дал понять, что от хода работы над поправками будет зависеть позиция США по вопросу принятия России в ВТО (США входит в число шести стран, с которыми России осталось согласовать позиции о вхождении в эту организацию).

Казалось бы, какое дело Вашингтону до российских общественных и некоммерческих объединений?

Но в том-то все и дело, что в современных условиях именно общественные неправительственные организации, объединения и фонды становятся главными проводниками глобализации и американизации. Там, где Вашингтон напрямую не может влиять на политические процессы, результаты выборов или итоги референдумов, в дело вступают неправительственные организации, которые действуют зачастую как "пятая колонна".

Именно поэтому США так важен пункт в нашем национальном законодательстве о возможности финансирования деятельности этих организаций из-за рубежа.

Прикрываясь часто вполне невинными целями и задачами, множество неправительственных организаций и фондов пронизывают всю структуру российского общества, особенно в зонах повышенной взрывоопасности. На Северном Кавказе, в Поволжье, национальных республиках. Формально они занимаются самыми нейтральными задачами: собирают информацию, налаживают систему образования, выдают гранты на исследования и помогают развивать локальные культуры. На самом деле эти структуры выполняют функции подрывных систем, являясь элементами той сетевой войны, которую ведет США против всех. И против своих союзников, и против своих противников, и против нейтральных сил. В учебнике по сетевым войнам американского вице-адмирала Сибровски это называется операциями "базового эффекта". Неприметная (а внешне вполне благородная) деятельность международных неправительственных организаций, не провозглашая никаких политических-целей и задач, на самом деле активно влияет на социальные процессы общественного строения, организуя под благовидным предлогом широкие группы активных людей, в первую очередь интеллигенцию, ученых, молодежь, религиозных и культурных деятелей. И в результате этой разнообразной и внешне никак не связанной между собой деятельности в различных направлениях происходит "базовый эффект", отражающийся в настроениях, электоральных предпочтениях и идеологическом настрое широких масс.

Головная структура, куда сходятся нити огромного количества неправительственных организаций, - это Freedom house (Дом Свободы), распложенный в США и возглавляемый бывшим директором ЦРУ Джеймсом Вулсли. Фактически мы имеем дело с разведывательной деятельностью эпохи информационного общества, которая проводится, в отличие от традиционных форм шпионажа, почти открыто. Мы видели, какую роль неправительственные организации и фонды сыграли в Сербии, Грузии, Украине. В том случае, когда у США и их ставленников не хватало сил осуществить переворот политическими средствами (с помощью выборов), они прибегали именно к этим неправительственным организациям, оперативно мобилизуя их сеть в необходимые массовки. Поэтому госдепартамент США и озабочен российским законодательством в этой сфере, откуда по предложению лично Путина были изъяты моменты, связанные с возможностью зарубежного финансирования.

Американцы надеялись на "увлеченность" Путиным либеральными теориями и предполагали (как обычно они поступали во времена Горбачева и Ельцина) обвести нас вокруг палеьца дважды: продавить устраивающий их закон об НПО и позже, с показной неохотой, согласиться на наше вступление в ВТО. Безупречная схема для них и - совершенно неприемлемая для нас.

К счастью, американский трюк не прошел, мы законодательно закрепили свою позицию, которую жестко сформулировал Президент Путин: "Российские НПО - дело исключительно самих россиян".

Да, это дело России как суверенной державы. Сильная и осознающая свой потенциал и стратегический масштаб Россия не нуждается ни в ВТО, ни в НПО. И последовательная национальная политика логично ведет к поиску иных моделей модернизации и в экономическом, и в социальном смысле.

Так, вроде банальный закон об общественных и некоммерческих организациях вполне может стать судьбоносным и ознаменовать собой водораздел между горбачевско-ельцинской инерцией безвременья и началом становления новой России - единой, сильной и неделимой. Свободной и не зависящий ни от кого, но открытой для партнерства и сотрудничества.
