Why is Britain preparing for a full-scale war with Russia?
War | Infographics Show
- Operation Steadfast Defender, NATO's largest military exercise since the Cold War, began in 2024. The UK is playing a significant role, demonstrating its readiness for potential conflict with Russia. ❗☢
- Estonia's spies are dropping some scary news. They reckon Russia might be gearing up for a full-on war with the West in the next 10 years. Anyone else feeling a bit nervous? 😰🕵️♂️
- Former Russian president Dmitry Medvedev suggested that attempts to force Russia back to its 1991 borders could lead to global war, with London among the primary targets. 🎯🇬🇧
- The UK has been one of the most vocal critics of Russia's actions, leading sanctions efforts following the invasion of Ukraine and the death of Alexei Navalny. 🐻🥊
- Historical tensions between the UK and Russia, including the high-profile poisonings of Alexander Litvinenko and Sergei Skripal on British soil, have contributed to the current strained relations. 🕵️♂️☠️
- Britain's going all in on helping Ukraine. $15 billion in aid? That's not pocket change. They're shipping everything from tanks to tech. Putin's gotta be mad angry. 💰🚀
- The UK's hitting Russia where it hurts - the wallet. Banning flights, freezing oligarch assets, even made Abramovich sell Chelsea! London's not playing around. 💷🚫
- British military leaders are talking tough. "Fight and win against Russia," they say. Sounds like they're not planning on backing down anytime soon. 🎖️🗣️
- Not gonna lie, the UK's got some catching up to do. Failed missile tests? Fewer tanks than Russia? But hey, they're working on it. Practice makes perfect, right? 🎯🔧
- Bottom line: no one knows what's coming, but the UK's making it clear - if Putin wants to mess with NATO, they'll be right there on the front lines. Let's hope it doesn't come to that. 🇬🇧🛡️

What happened in the factories that the Nazis used to breed babies?
The Lebensborn program, initiated by the Nazis in 1935, was a secretive scheme to create a "pure Aryan race" through controlled breeding and child rearing. 😱🧬 Apparently, Heinrich Himmler was obsessed with this program. He'd personally approve SS marriages and expect them to pop out kids. Creepy micromanagement much? 👀🚼 The program established maternity homes across Nazi-occupied Europe, including Germany, Norway, Austria, and other countries. These facilities were often set up in requisitioned properties. 🏥😰 Women had to pass stringent "racial purity" tests to participate, with only 40% of applicants accepted. Preferred traits included blonde hair, blue eyes, and specific height requirements. 🤯😭 SS officers were encouraged to father children with these women, even outside of marriage. The program offered medical care, financial support, and secrecy to participating mothers. 💰🤐 Upon birth, many Lebensborn children were taken by the SS and placed in Nazi-controlled nurseries. Biological mothers often had to renounce all rights to their children. 💔👶 The program conducted disturbing "baptism" ceremonies for newborns, involving SS daggers and pledges of loyalty to Nazi ideology, aiming to indoctrinate children from birth. 🥶❗ It gets worse. They kidnapped around 200,000 kids from occupied countries. Snatched 'em right from their parents if they looked "Aryan" enough. Can you imagine? 😢🚓 These kidnapped children underwent forced "Germanization," involving psychological manipulation and sometimes physical abuse to make them forget their true origins. 🎭😵 After the war, many Lebensborn children faced stigma and discrimination. In Norway, some were even institutionalized and subjected to abuse. The full extent of the program's impact remains unclear to this day. 😡✊

A Failed Artist, A Disillusioned Poet, An Underpaid Game Show Host
I took my son and niece to Gori, a small town in Georgia where Joseph Stalin was born. They talked me into visiting the Stalin's Museum, the largest in the post-Soviet space. I had resisted going there because I just can't stand the monster and know enough about him, or so I thought.
