[QUOTE]Using data from IRS migration records—where people relocate to—we constructed a similar map, but this time based on mobility. In this case, we connected and grouped counties based on where people moved, rather than to whom they spoke. Instead of showing the different groupings, we have this time highlighted the borders between these regions.[/QUOTE]

i like how the two are standing there all like "well shit"
what country is the pig head supposed to be though
not sure, looks like its got an austrian rat eating its ear though
infact, maybe its isreal?
I like how the French are chickens and the Germans are still Nazis
[QUOTE=cr2142;45815241]infact, maybe its isreal?[/QUOTE]
Israel is an option, so is Finland (many Finns I imagine still hate the Russians), and Greece.
Given how ambiguous it is it could be Israel. They probably don't want to be seen as Nazis.
The thing hanging off the pig's ear is either Austria or Denmark or Latvia.
If it's Latvia the blue and white might be Estonia.
estonia's blue and white and BLACK though and our flag has a blue cross and we don't have Austria on our ass

i'll just assume the artist is pretty shit at geopolitics
[QUOTE=cr2142;45815204]not sure, looks like its got an austrian rat eating its ear though[/QUOTE]
Looks more like Latvia to me, which begs the question [i]why is Latvia there?[/i]
I think the monster represents allied nuclear nations, so I would guess Israel.
The nuke wings are a nice touch. :v:
[QUOTE=Mjolnir82991;45815710]I think the monster represents allied nuclear nations, so I would guess Israel.[/QUOTE]but whats with the Austria thing then?
All of you are silly, that blue and white flag is obviously soon to be independent Scotland.
Considering there is a massive label saying G20 in the middle of the picture it's probably safe to assume it represents some of the G20 countries maybe?
In which case the blue and white pig thing is Argentina while the rat dude is likely Canada.
That's something I'd expect in a BBC show; like when the car drives past they switch cameras and Clarkson's driving

[QUOTE=Bonde;45725627]True, the Red Army did have motivation to commit a greater amount of war crimes than the regular Wehrmacht during the later stages of the war where they were on the offensive.
This was especially because the Soviet high command chose to use the Nazi war crimes committed in Ukraine, Belarus and Russia as propaganda to fuel thoughts of hatred and revenge in the troops, driving them ever forward to completely annihilate Nazi Germany militarily. It was easy, because so many soldiers in the Red Army had lost family, girlfriends and friends due to the absolutely mind boggling casualties the Soviet union suffered because of famine, disease, genocide, and not to mention the war itself.
That at least goes some way to explain why the Red Army committed atrocities on a greater scale than the Wehrmacht in the last stages of the war. Rapes were very common, so were executions of prisoners and looting. This wasn't very planned, but no one really tried to stop them, since NKVD were busy with carrying out planned executions and deportations of political opponents.
I could post hundreds of photos of both "on the spot" and planned executions, but you have all seen the pictures. Besides, I find it a bit tasteless to post such pictures for the sheer shock value instead of having a proper discussion, as pictures doesn't say everything, especially if you don't know where and when they were taken. [I]However [/I]it was hard finding a photograph of an [I]Einsatzgruppe [/I]not in the middle of executing someone (and some times even posing while doing it).[/QUOTE]
I'm really late on this, but the Red Army did some really nasty shit when they captured Berlin. After the Allies had captured it and split it up. The Red Army was doing it so much American/British/Etc MP's where issued little cards around with them that said "Rape", "Assault", "Looting", "Murder", etc in German and would show it to civilians when there was a problem. There was also even reports of Soviet soldiers trying to attack the MPs when they showed up to resolve a problem.
With all that being said. Have some pictures.
