This article from the United Press International is just a touch of what Russia/The Soviet Union has in terms of its capabilities to spy and to perform genocide against other countries and cultures. Even though their people are starving, have no medicine, don't have the resources to keep their peoples warm during the brutal Russian winters, they always have money to perform their evil deeds towards an evil endgame. And just to think that in terms of foreign policy Barack Obama would truly be "Jimmy Carter Deux."

EDINBURGH, Scotland, June 29 (UPI) -- A Scottish map enthusiast has discovered that the former Soviet Union had extraordinarily detailed maps of Scotland.

The maps showed the width of important roads and the streets and buildings of major cities, along with less obvious choices like Dunfermline, a historic town between Glasgow and Edinburgh, The Scotsman reports.

John Davies told the newspaper he found the maps while he was on a trip to Latvia. He said he believes they showed the Soviet Union was contemplating invasion and occupation.

"You have got to speculate as to how maps of this complexity were put together," Davies said. "A lot of it could have been done through aerial surveillance, either by satellite or high-altitude reconnaissance planes. But the maps also include detail which just could not have been observed from the air. That means that they almost certainly had people on the ground in the U.K. compiling these maps."

The maps even showed whether buildings had been fire-proofed.
