May 27: On this date in 1942, Operation Anthropoid, the assassination of Nazi Reinhard Heydrich, was carried out by soldiers of the Czechoslovak army-in-exile in conjunction with the Special Operations Executive. The operation was the only verified successful government-sponsored assassination of a senior Nazi leader during WW2. The Nazis took revenge on thousands of Czechs, including the mass murder & destruction of Lidice.

Manipulation of this “infographic” beats all records - described as “percentage of Jewish population murdered by country during #Holoacaus” but:

  • There was no such countries as #Poland and #Czechoslovakia (100% occupied by #Germany and #USSR since 1939) or #Ukraine (did not exist as separate entity before and after WW2) etc
  • Ukraine was 100% part of #USSR yet there’s separate entries (!) for both #Ukraine and Soviet Union
  • Nazi #Germany (!) humbly ranks in the middle with 69% whereas it was 100% responsible for Holocaust in all other countries
  • Including #France which ranks at 25% even though its collaboration Vichy government actively cooperated with deportation of Jewish population to death camps, as did #Hungary

    • The purpose of this weird - in all aspects - chart is unclear, except for smear campaign against the Central-Eastern European countries that hosted the most Jews on the eve of WW2 simply because before that they were kicked out from Western Europe, while whitewashing others, such as Germany, France and Soviet Union 🤷

    Big update for Hearts of Iron 4: armies, arms trade and pre-war events get a serious overhaul, from factories to border skirmishes 🚂

    The headline change is an army readiness balance system that tweaks a country's fighting power before full-scale war (example: Czechoslovakia before Munich). Owners of Arms Against Tyranny get deeper international procurement mechanics; others get a simplified trade-via-decisions system. Germany can...

    In Hearts of Iron IV Czechoslovakia gets a full overhaul: new ahistorical trees, beefed‑up monarcho‑fascist expansion/diplomacy and a tougher "Divided Nation" mechanic, removing it is now way harder 🤯

    The Bohemian‑Slovak Kingdom can press claims from Austria to Danzig, back Poland and Hungary, spawn and absorb puppet states; the fascist/monarchist paths offer flexible alliance play, while the communist route leans into bloc...

    This lady is from a different era.

    She was born before #WWII even started.

    She's lived through it all, including the #Anschluss of #Austria into the #German Reich, #NevilleChamberlain's appeasement of #Hitler, and latter's annexation #Czechoslovakia.

    She thoroughly deserves rest now.

    However, looking at her laid-back life, it seems she will see the beginnings of the next World War as well.

    >> #Israel requiring extra territory… like #GolanHeights and Southern #Lebanon, is the same sort of demand #Stalin asked for with #Poland, #Hungary, #Czechoslovakia, #Romania et al at #Potsdam.

    It is also what drove #Nazi #Lebensraum ideology to establish a Greater #German Reich with territorial expansion into #Europe.

    They said it was necessary for their survival, and existing populations would have to be removed permanently through mass #deportation, #extermination, or #enslavement
