SHORT MOMENT OF VICTORY, OR DRANG NACH VESTEN!

Ilham Aliyev, whose hereditary-impressive walk, according to
Sheikh-ul-Islam gaji Allah Shukur Pasha-zade, is pleasing to
Allah, will not walk any more. He will march. He will creep, fly,
soar up upwards and entrench. Moreover, he will rend the air with
inflammatory speeches raising working masses on a sacred struggle
Armenian nation. An ardent tribune Aliyev stated: "Azerbaijan must
attack Armenia in all directions - political, economic and diplomatic,
as well as in the sphere of propaganda".
So, all Azeri enterprises will work under their own slogans
demonstrating the workers' contribution to the state task's solution.
For instance, the factory of air-conditioners already works under
slogan " Cool Armenians' Heat!". Oil industry workers added to their
armory a slogan: " Blacken Armenia!". Transparencies, under which
dustmen sweep Baku streets, run: " Sweep out Pacifists!". The jewelers'
motto is: "Ring All Armenians!". Azeri Ambassadors must post up the
words of a well-known hymn "Our indignant mind is boiling!" over
Ilham Aliyev's portrait.
Journalists, who are always flaunting their independence, failed to
find a common motto. They divided into three groups working at various
columns, one of which is "Blacken Armenians!", a plagiarism usual for
graphomaniacs. Two other groups formed by better educated journalists
work over columns " Load Us with Money" and "Feather for Lightness".
War! This short word has stirred up all the strata of Azeri society:
from port loaders to Presidential administrations' officials. In
the course of a sitting held in Bailov jail prisoners have adopted
a resolution: "We are eager to redeem our fault with blood!"
It is rumored that boys and girls will be called up since the age
of 12 and 13 correspondingly. The young soldiers stride along Baku
streets singing a new hit: "Ranks of soldiers were walking to heaven
from Heydarplyatte".
Maternity hospitals urge: "Azerbaijan needs heroes! Don't give birth
to ordinary people!"
A patriotic singer Aygun Kazimova begs an old man to give her a
uniform Azeris were wearing while deserting from the battle fronts
during Great Patriotic War: she must sing a new song written by E.
Agalarov - His Presidential Majesty's son-in-law. The song's
called:"Embracing my sweet heart, I'm dreaming of Karabagh".
Loud-speakers situated in each corner repeat Ilham Aliyev's yells:
"Priority to military expenses! Azerbaijan is at war! Drang nach
Vesten!"
The mass are shouting: "Hurrah!" and "Yashasyn"!
Suddenly everything becomes quiet. Someone is still mechanically crying
"Yashasyn!", however, no one supports him. Is it a glorious way? Walk
a little along such a way, and...
Enthusiasm has subsided. The war is over. There is nothing but sad
memories of a short moment of victory.
