Russia to build Reichstag model for kids to storm at patriotic theme park

Associated Press
22 FEBRUARY 2017 • 2:44PM
The Russian military is building a replica of Berlin's Reichstag building as a playground for teenagers to attack at a patriotic theme park.

Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu, who made the announcement Wednesday, said the replica at the Patriot Park just outside Moscow will be smaller than life size.

Speaking to Russian parliament, he added to lawmakers' applause that the idea is for Yunarmia members "to storm a specific location, not something abstract."
The images of Soviet Army soldiers hoisting the red flag over the Reichstag in May 1945 have been iconic in Russia.

The Yunarmia, or Young Army, was created in 2015 on Shoigu's initiative to encourage patriotism among schoolchildren, provide physical training and teach them basic military skills.




"Patriot Park" looks pretty cool actually.

When a tree grows, it is soft and pliable. But when it's dry and hard, it dies.

Hardness and strength are death's companions. Flexibility and softness are the embodiment of life.

That which has become hard shall not triumph.

actually the EU is basically Germany's fourth reich at this point

they may be internally "democratic", but Italy. Spain, Portugal and Greece are all ruled by technocrats appointed by German bankers against the will of their populace

also the two main parties collude and work together to ensure nothing but 3rd way neoliberalism gets a chance
