This is a fragment of a WWII-era speech in which Stalin warns about a future war with Germany. I’ve cut it right at the point where he asks the key question: how do you prevent renewed German aggression in 20-30 years?

Nuclear history repeats itself in strange ways. Fuchs and Greenglass justified their actions in the wake of WWII by saying no one power should monopolize dangerous knowledge.

"Perestroika" was supposed to fix the Soviet system. Instead, it became a goldmine - just not for those it was "meant" to help. Here are a few Soviet-era jokes about it:

In 1994, over 30% of Russians named Gorbachev the biggest liar of the post-1917 era; 25% said Yeltsin. You can call it manipulation. Or you can remember: in 1991, over 80% voted to preserve the USSR and it was dismantled anyway.

Soon we’ll be celebrating Victory Day. Schoolchildren are getting ready and singing wartime songs, which is really special. How is the victory over Nazism and fascism, and the liberation of Europe, commemorated where you are?

Germans in 1945, after trying to portray Russians as Untermenschen, brought their tanks onto our land.

World War II could have been prevented. But nobody except Stalin really wanted to stop Hitler. Not badly enough.
