Is Russia Taking Her Rightful Place: Defender of the Faith?

Is Russia Taking Her Rightful Place: Defender of the Faith?

As I first mentioned in The Third Rome, A Heavy Responsibility", Russia, the Third Rome, has always had the responsibility of protecting the Christians, particularly the Orthodox Christians in Islamic lands.

To that end we went to war with Turkey on numerous occasions, to first stop their slave raids and then to free our Bulgarian, Romanian, Serbia, Greek, Armenian and Assyrian Orthodox brothers. Even before that, the Turks feared to act to rashly least they brought the wraith of the Tsars. The only times they felts encouraged was when they had a Western power on their side.

Even while Russia was weak, it sent its troops to fight. Half the Polish army that relieved Vienna from the Sultan's siege, was Russian.

In the Caucuses, Russia practiced counter raids with the Chechens and then conquest and occupation, when they would not stop slaving the Georgian and Armenian Orthodox, both protectorates of the Russian throne. There were also two wars with Persia and the conquest of Khiva for those same reasons.

Indeed, it was not until Russia was removed, in the form of civil war and Bolshevism, by US banking elites and US socialist "do-gooder" politicians, that true prosecution of Christians began. It was then that the Turks, armed by the US and their new ally Lenin, murdered the second half million Armenians, half million Assyrians and two million Iotolan Greeks.

Since those black days in the first quarter of the 20th century, the lot of Christianity has fallen drastically across the world. The so called Christian powers: US, UK, France, Germany, support one Islamic jihad after another, conveniently pulling out their "free" press to avoid scenes of mass Christian murders. No need the rubes having to much on their brains.

And os, it is with great pleasure that I read in RIA that Vladimir Putin, when presented with the bare facts of Christian persecution, with the facts that a Christian dies every five minutes, presented by Metropolitan Hilarion, foreign relation chief of the Russian Orthodox Church, agreed to defend them.

In specific, Metropolitan Hilarion asked for President-Elect Putin to defend and protect Christians. This includes in the "free" towns of Syria, where US/UK backed Islamic Jihadist fanatics are already on their usual murderous deranged Islamic jihads. Why wait till you win a civil war to kill those Orthodox and Catholic Christians?

Taking up the mantel that was held by the Tsars will help give back to Russia that national idea she once had. Instead of having to swallow half regurgitated ideas from other cultures that never fit and rot their parent countries out, here is Russia's chance: the National Idea of Christian Orthodox stability, temperance, vitality and strength, as well as conservatism in culture and morality.

We will see what Putin brings us in the next six years, but he must be kept to his word and the Islamic barbarians, feasting on the blood of Christian martyrs, while sitting in their mud brick huts and houses, must know why to fear the North Wind.
