Russia to build model of Reichstag for children to attack

Defense minister said he wanted teenagers ‘to storm a specific location, not something abstract.’

The Russian military is to build a replica of the German parliament at a theme park near Moscow that children*will be encouraged to attack, the Associated Press*reported.

The idea*is meant to recreate the moment when Soviet troops entered Berlin at the end of World War II, and is part of government plans to*encourage patriotism among young people, provide physical training and teach basic military skills.

a further gem,

In Moscow, Defence Ministry spokesman Major General Igor Konashenkov lashed out at the German officials for their reaction and vigorously defended the ministry's plan, saying the Reichstag replica "will contribute to the patriotic education of young citizens and foreign guests".

Mr Konashenkov also referred to the 1933 Reichstag arson, which is seen as a pivotal moment in establishing Nazi Germany, and hinted that the Germans who are worried about Russia wanting to build a replica building could be Nazi sympathisers.

"Verbal attacks by certain German politicians are not only dismaying but they also make one wonder about how these people really feel about the creators of the Third Reich," he said.

And there I was thinking there was only one movie...

Yeah, it's weird. They're (broadly) the same movie.

Meanwhile,

What happens if you oppose Vladimir Putin?

As thousands march in Moscow to remember assassinated opposition leader Boris Nemtsov, the criminalisation of street protests and action against the President's political opponents show speaking out against the Kremlin is even harder than ever.

It took four months and 300 emails to get two ABC correspondents permission to enter Russia to cover international affairs in Moscow.
