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

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

Will this park include mannequins and sex dolls looking like German women so the kids can play rape across Europe.

Most freepers reading this would know the famous photograph was staged as the photographers missed the real event.

That’s 10 bucks extra and you have to be taller than the small bear.

First Russian tank to enter Berlin. The marble slabs were taken from the Reichstag bldg.

The monument was blown up during the night. The Russians built a different memorial with another first tank.

De Blasio will probably take this idea and build a miniature replica of Trump Tower in Central Park, and encourage his little thugs to attack it, and hoist Mexican, ISIS and Rainbow flags over it.

The Russians had an actor who looked just like Stalin. They had him doing all sorts of heroic acts in fake newsreels.

The brutality of Stalin’s time is not the Russia of today.

Some want us to believe the worst about Russia today based on that.

Solzhenitsyn wrote about the times of Stalin and the evil of the USSR.

But there’s another Russia in the writings and speeches of Solzhenitsyn, the one that aspires to better things.

My screen name comes from character in one of his books.

“...layout to simulate taking the white house...”

I thought at least he didn’t make a mock-up of the White House! Same thought pattern we have here.

They tried to buy some but the Muslims nations had already bought them all up.

The Germans always love to point that out, conveniently neglecting to mention what their guys did to Russian and Ukrainian women for the 3 1/2 years prior.

Teaching their kids to love their nation and to remember a great moment for them. How quaint. That would never happen here.

First tank to enter Berlin huh? I’m betting that’s a lot like getting a pen that signed a law, (when 20-30 get used) or like getting a game ball when over a hundred might get used.

Or like getting a flag which flew over the capital. I have read that they have a guy whose full time job is raising and lowering flags over the capital.
