The new concept of the "5 Column". What it is? What is dangerous?

We must admit that we live in a period of change. Gradually they are gaining such speed that they can "crush" those who do not dodge in time. In order to understand the essence of the changes, it is necessary to be well-oriented in terms that are peculiar "beacons", which intensively signal ordinary citizens that events are rapidly gaining momentum. To such it is possible to carry safely expression "5 column". What it is? Let's figure it out.

Excursion to the history

To the uninitiated reader, who rarely listens to what news broadcasters broadcast, the phrase will seem quite ordinary. Something like reasoning about architecture. But this expression has nothing to do with the Doric and Ionic columns ...

It was first applied by the Franco general during the war in Spain in 1936-1939. It was a question of secret agents in the rear. Describing the situation in the speech on the radio, he said that in addition to the four military columns, there are also 5 columns. That this was made clear from the comments: E. Mol had in mind the hidden, espionage network operating in Madrid.

Modern definition

Over time, the term became a household word. Now it is rare for citizens who are interested in events in the world to ask: "What is the name of the column? What are they called?" So they call frank and hidden spies, traitors and wreckers, some individuals capable of aiding the enemy in a critical situation. It is clear that the patriot will not want to be regarded as belonging to this "society". The fifth column is people who in no way can gain the confidence of both the state and its citizens. They act on the basis of narrow interests, without thinking about the security of the Motherland.

What is the "fifth column" in Russia

In society there is a big and, unfortunately, a heated debate about who is a patriot and who is not. Everyone who is suspected of aiding "a potential adversary," who now acts as a collective West, is denounced with the unpleasant title of "The Five Columns". What it is, each treats in its own way, not caring about the opponent's emotions. So even before the general "massacre" not far ... But authoritative political analysts quite clearly defined what is the fifth column in modern Russia.

First of all, all belolentochniki - those who took part in the memorable events on Bolotnaya Square - got into the unpleasant list. These citizens, who have their own views on the policy of the state (to which they have every right), are too actively criticized by the authorities, without offering effective "recipes" for treating "ailments". Their position is now not in the credit of that part of society that supports the general upsurge engendered by the Crimean events.

More complex representatives of the fifth column

Some sources believe that the "society" of hidden and overt opponents in the Russian Federation is much broader than the legal opposition. They include foreign citizens, whose activities are clearly anti-government. In general, "foes" work with the population, sometimes creating uncontrollable discontent with the authorities. Any reason is suitable, if only the people were worried and indignant. And if there is no demand from foreigners (they do not have to serve our Motherland), their own is a completely different matter.

The 5th column draws Russians into their ranks the opportunity to get a good income. There is no need to hide that these people act in the interests of our opponents, whose sponsorship abilities are not yet limited. And the "approaches" to recruitment are very sophisticated. Citizens of the Russian Federation are sure that they have full right to their point of view. In order to make an honest man a member of the fifth column, it is enough to carefully and unobtrusively correct his opinion. And what is the result? Now you are dissatisfied with the authorities, and tomorrow for a small bribe already running to the rally, not asking, are your goals laid by the organizers in the basis?

What is dangerous 5th column?

We must start with the fact that the basis for the influence of the fifth column is money. They are controlled by foreign citizens pursuing goals that are different from Russian ones. They do not always work illegally. Part of the work is conducted openly: publications in the media, financing of projects, organization of actions aimed at highlighting the shortcomings of the social order. Legal actions are quite democratic. Only their purpose, if considered deeply anti-state. The activities of the fifth column are aimed at eliminating the strong statehood of Russia. This is done not openly, but is veiled. Unhurriedly, but persistently, the column has its negative effect on the minds of citizens. Preparations are under way for a "turning point" when people can be taken to the streets demanding a change of power. A lot of specialists are involved in this activity, covering practically all segments of the population. A common man in the street does not need to go to rallies: representatives of the enemy camp are waiting for him on the Internet, on forums, in social networks. Antistate moods are injected into the people carefully and carefully so as not to cause rejection. That's why the hidden enemy is dangerous. His work is not everyone will be able to recognize, and therefore, in time to navigate and reflect the impact will be difficult.
