Wow, even the Nazis didn't think Crimea should be Ukranian.

Dachas by the sea as with the Soviets?

Or Nazi mythologizing of the Crimean Goths?

I wonder which the creator of that map had in mind since the Crimea appears to be a part of GrossDeutschland.

Were they going to settle black dudes in Schwarzland?

Or Nazi mythologizing of the Crimean Goths?

That one.

IIRC didn't Hitler want to make the Crimea into some sort of big Nazi vacation spot?

Looks like 'our girls' got force-converted to Islam.

Looks like 'our girls' got force-converted to Islam.

Or at least, the bonkers version that Boko Haram worships.

It was supposed to become Germanic by re-settling a shitload of people.
I find this incredibly interesting, and have tried to read what there may exist still about the Generalplan Ost.

What strikes me, is that Europe by 2010 wasn't THAT far away from a Third Reich with less totalitarianism.

I guess Michelle's grumpy selfie didn't work.

Or maybe this was Barack HUSSEIN Obama's plan all along to help his Muslim brothers

I don't see any other countries lining up for the chance to lend to southern deadbeats.

Washington (AFP) - The United States expressed skepticism Tuesday that more than 200 schoolgirls held by Boko Haram militants had been located by Nigeria, stating that it had no "independent information" on the matter.

The country's highest ranking military officer on Monday said that Nigeria had located the missing teenagers, kidnapped mid-April by the armed militant group.

But one day later, US State Department Spokeswoman Jen Psaki told journalists that the there was no "independent information from the United States to support these reports."

Asked whether she found it "smart" of Nigerian officials to announce they had found the girls -- in the event that they had been located -- Psaki responded that "for the girls' safety and wellbeing, we certainly would not discuss publicly this sort of information."

With 80 US military personnel sent to neighboring Chad for intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance, the United States is the biggest foreign participant in the effort against Boko Haram.

Washington has also deployed surveillance drones, spy planes and about 30 civilian and military specialists to support Nigeria's security forces.

US authorities have previously expressed doubt that Abuja has the capacity to conduct the rescue mission.

State Department and Pentagon officials as well as members of Congress have chided Nigeria for what they called a slow response to the crisis and for human rights violations of which its army is accused.

tl;dr- Nigerians say they've found the girls, US skeptical
