What do you say about that people in Germany are encouraged to make their supplies of food and drinking water in case of disasters, including war?
The call may have two reasons. The first may be that the situation inside the country is so tensed, due to migration, that threatens to collapse the supply and provokes possible actions of the population towards migrants. The second reason may be that the scheduling conflict with Russia is already so advanced that it is necessary to call on the population to clothe in case of war. Perhaps, the third reason could be considered, which is to instil fear to the masses, and thus make them easier to control and divert attention from the pressing problems of the present.

In Poland and Hungary were similar alarms. Why we still do nothing?
Maybe it's the fact that our politicians are sometimes more "reasonable" and knowledgeable on Czech nature, which is learnt that that kind of challenge has incalculable consequences. Additionally, Czech housewives hardened by the situation in shops during seventies and eighties build up stocks automatically without any special warning.

How do you see the international air exercises Ample Strike 2016 which runs over central Europe?
If the main objective is to train and coordinate forces in different situations possible assault on a member of NATO states, then everything is fine. However, if the aim is to provoke a potential enemy, that's not fine, and it's in direct contravention of the declared character of NATO.
It all seems that NATO weapons, even those of mass destruction, is getting closer to Russia's borders. One of the “Parlamentní” readers wrote to the editor asked if he had to fear of the worst, the conflict NATO versus Russia ...
Though the Internet is circulating a joke: "Obama and his generals in the Pentagon discussed, and they could not agree on, what is the best time for the assault on Russia. Finally, they decide to ask the French: When is it best to invade Russia? The French answered: We do not know, but certainly not in the winter, it would go wrong for sure. Therefore, it would probably be better to ask the Germans: When is it best to invade Russia? The Germans answer: We do not know, but it certainly would not be in the summer. We have tried, already ... What to do? Someone proposes to ask China that is progressive and always comes up with a new idea. So they asked the Chinese, when is the best time to invade Russia? The Chinese replies: Right now! Russia began to build “The Strength of Siberia" pipeline, “Turkish stream”, The Spaceport “Vostochny”, The Bridge to the Crimea, and in the near future they will modernize the BAM, they are building new sports complexes for the World Cup in football and athletics, they are planning oil extraction in the Arctic. .. Right now they do need a lot of POW"

To what extent is the Czech army ideologically divided? When we look at former commanders of the General Staff, for example, Miroslav Kostelka is very sober in assessment of Russia, Petr Pavel opposing to him is harder, and so forth. Is it a template for a lower command level, at least according to what you know from your friends and acquaintances still active in the Army?
The template is not a big deal, but my friends shake their heads over the performances of the former Chief of General Staff. Indeed, I commented him in a recent interview. I recommend to ask our leaders whether they are ready to bear the brunt of what General Pavel wants.

I ask because I have a persistent idea that if there was a conventional war with Russia, now, it could happen the same as in the First World War. Many deserters, so-called founding Legion and so forth. Or maybe I'm wrong and the professional army is not about ideas, opinions, critical thinking, open-mindedness, but in terms of salary, only?
I am answering with a quote from the book of Jaroslav Hasek “The Good Soldier Schweik”: “The district magistrate, and me have always said, 'Patriotism, loyalty to duty, self-overcoming, those are the real weapons in the war!' I am reminding you, especially today, when our troops are anytime soon to cross the border.”

Is it possible that a nuclear war could be a local one?
And is it possible that, in the twenty-first century, someone is tampered with the idea to use the craziest tool of destruction of all - a nuclear weapon?

What US presidential candidate, to your opinion, is to ease the international situation better?
I'm not a US citizen and I do not live in that country, as well, so I can only benefit from what is provided by the "mainstream" media, and based on that it is Donald Trump. Furthermore, can you imagine a woman as the Head of the most powerful nation in the World, after the experience with the most powerful woman in Europe?
