Putin Creates New ‘Young Army’ That Draws Comparison To Nazi Germany’s Hitler Youth
Web critics drew parallels to the Hitler Youth and feared a rise in militarization under Putin, but Russian defence officials insisted it is about raising a generation of children ready to build a bright future for themselves and their country.
The pioneers of Vladimir Putin’s new Young Army take their salute in an initiative with strong echoes of Russia’s past during the Cold War.
“These boys and girls enter our organizations at ten years of age, and often for the first time get a little fresh air; after four years of the Young Folk they go on to the Hitler Youth, where we have them for another four years . . . And even if they are still not complete National Socialists, they go to Labor Service and are smoothed out there for another six, seven months . . . And whatever class consciousness or social status might still be left . . . the Wehrmacht German armed forces will take care of that.” —Adolf Hitler (1938)
The first 104 schoolchildren joined the revived Soviet military-patriotic movement ‘Yunarmiya’ – or Young Army – in the city of Yaroslavl, the first cadets on a scheme that will be rolled out across the country in September.
Web critics drew parallels to the Hitler Youth and feared a rise in militarization under Putin, but Russian defence officials insisted it is about raising a generation of children ready to build a bright future for themselves and their country.
The oath of male and female ‘yun-armists’ (young soldiers) reads: ‘I swear to aim for victories in studies and sports, to live a healthy lifestyle, to make myself prepared for the service and labour for the sake of the Motherland, to cherish the memory of the heroes who fought for freedom and independence of our Motherland, to be a patriot and a dignified citizen of Russia.’
The first-ever woman in space, cosmonaut Valentina Tereshkova, 79, was on hand at an ‘initiation ceremony’ to welcome to new ‘conscripts’.
‘I hope that studies and practical training will give you a chance to join the Russian Army later and to become the true defenders of our Motherland,’ she told the children, with some recruits said to be as young as ten.
The complicated international situation demands attention and training, she explained, alluding to perceived Western threats to Russia.
‘I congratulate you. I want to hope that our joint work will produce new sportsmen and new heroes. I wish each of you becomes the decent officer of the Russian Army.’
Officially the new set-up is known as the Voluntary Society of Support for the Army, Air Force and Navy, known as DOSAAF.
General-colonel Alexander Kolmakov said that reviving an old tradition of children and youth organisations can lead to the ‘growing of a generation of citizens who treat the history with care, who are kind and responsive, ready to build a bright future for themselves and for their country’.
His phrase ‘svetloe buduschee’ or ‘bright future’ was widely used in Soviet times to describe the expected great future of the USSR when Communism finally won the day.
‘The Yunarmiya movement, created upon the initiative of the Russian Defence Ministry and supported by the President of Russian Federation, will unite all organisations and bodies that train the citizens before they join the army.
‘And DOSAAF will allow members of the new movement to use its facilities for training.’ Serving cosmonauts added their messages of support from the International Space Station.
‘You are the true patriots of your motherland. And you deserve the right to become defenders of your motherland, its interests, its cultural and spiritual traditions,’ said said Alexey Ovchinin.
Young Russians will be taught to assemble assault rifles, as well as how to shoot. They will be able to learn parachute jumping, but also theoretical subjects such as military history and tactics.
Students will wear uniform, and units will have their own ‘headquarters’ and banner.
The main age group of the new Putin Young Army will be 14 to 18, but children will be recruited from the age of ten.
Officials stress that attendance will not be compulsory, and will be in addition to normal existing lessons.
Russia has witnessed a surge of nationalism since Putin’s land grab in Crimea in 2014 and top brass want to make the country’s ‘growing number of patriotic military movements’ more structured.
The initiative has been criticised, with Valentina Melnikova – who heads a soldiers’ rights group – stating: ‘Attempts to militarise children are a violation of their rights.’ One blogger accused the authorities of the ‘fascistization’ of Russia. ‘Putin-jugend got new members,’ said another.
Pro-government pundit Andrei Kurochkin insisted there was a need to ‘strengthen discipline, raise the prestige of the army and develop patriotic education’.
A source close to Putin’s new initiative said: ‘Yunarmiya will have a proper military-patriotic and military-sports programme. ‘Military-type sports, army service studies ~ it is not only about assembling and dissembling guns, it is also a course for a young soldier with marching and firing training with pneumatic guns.
‘Children will study tactics and the military history of Russia.’ They will also be taught the basics of first aid. Children will be given rooms of Yunarmiya, with posters, library, a banner of their detachment and its symbols, a source told gazeta.ru
‘Every detachment will have a commander,’ he said. source

The Bridgeport Correctional Center In Connecticut Processes Thousands Of Inmates Each Year And Their Goal Is A Bible For Every Prisoner Who Wants One
Thousands of inmates are processed and sent out through the Bridgeport Correctional Center each year, and they need a Bible to take with them as they go
The Bridgeport Correctional Center in Connecticut is a high-security facility located at 1106 North Ave Bridgeport, CT 06604, managing a diverse and predominantly pre-trial population. It serves as a central urban jail for the state, offering various rehabilitation, education, and vocational programs designed to assist in inmate reintegration. Today, Chaplain Steve has told us of their need for as many Bibles as we can provide, and I would love for us to be able to help him.
“The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;” Isaiah 61:1 (KJB)
Chaplain Steve writes “We are a large county jail with 1000s of individuals passing through our gates every year. some stay a long time, while others move on more quickly. We want to be able to give bibles to all inmates who request them, but we are currently having trouble keeping up with the demand. I see that the bible we give out are appreciated by the inmates.” Every day we receive multiple requests for free Bibles from individuals both locally and globally. Each week, we receive multiple requests for Bibles from chaplains who minister in the jails and prisons across America. Just this morning we finalized a request for 500 Bibles sent to a Georgia jail, and received a new request from the Bridgeport Correctional Center in Connecticut. Oftentimes new requests will come in while I am writing one of these articles, it’s honestly overwhelming but in a good way. Christian, God has given us an amazing open door in these closing moments of the Church Age to give out as many Bibles and devotional books as we possibly can, and it’s exciting. Prisoners are getting saved in the thousands, and being set free in Jesus Christ. There is much work to be done, come help us to do it!!

THE PROPHECY NEWS PODCAST: They Are Calling It ‘World War Trump’ As Costs Rise Into The Billions With A Defiant Iran Vowing No Retreat And No Surrender
We are looking at World War Trump in Iran that just may produce the biggest military conflict anyone has seen since WWII
For weeks now the world has been watching the conflict that many are calling “World War Trump” unfold in real time, and the situation is becoming clearer by the day. President Donald Trump has demanded “unconditional surrender” from Iran, while Tehran has responded with open defiance, calling that demand nothing more than a “dream.” Iran is not surrendering. Not today, not tomorrow, and certainly not easily if at all.
“Or what king, going to make war against another king, sitteth not down first, and consulteth whether he be able with ten thousand to meet him that cometh against him with twenty thousand?” Luke 14:31 (KJB)
On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, the rhetoric coming from Washington is maximalist: surrender, regime change, and the installation of leadership acceptable to the United States. Iran’s response is equally absolute: we will not surrender, and that is the formula for a long war. History teaches this lesson over and over again. Nations rarely surrender when they believe their survival—or their ideology—is at stake. The Islamic Republic of Iran is built on resistance to the West; surrender would mean the collapse of the entire revolutionary system. This is a key point that Trump and his Department of War seem to be blissfully unaware of. The Middle East is the epicenter of the last days, and conflicts like this one are not random accidents of history. They are part of a geopolitical storm building toward the prophetic end times. The Bible warned that the last days would be a time of global instability and military tension. The stage is being set, and not for peace, but for the largest series of wars the world has ever seen. And if Iran refuses to surrender—as it clearly intends to do—the conflict now unfolding could become one of the sparks that ignites the next phase of global upheaval.

End Times
The World Is The Closest It’s Ever Been To WWIII As 20 Nations Have Now Joined In Trump’s Iran War That Has Spread Far Beyond Just The Middle East
The World Is The Closest It’s Ever Been To World War III As 20 Nations Across Europe And Middle East Are Now Pulled Into The US War With Iran
There are moments in history when the gears of prophecy seem to audibly grind as they move into position, and we may very well be watching one of those moments right now. The rapidly expanding war centered on Iran is no longer a regional flare-up, it is a geopolitical wildfire drawing in nation after nation until the entire Middle East looks like a powder keg waiting for a single spark to set it off.
“He shall enter peaceably even upon the fattest places of the province; and he shall do that which his fathers have not done, nor his fathers’ fathers; he shall scatter among them the prey, and spoil, and riches: yea, and he shall forecast his devices against the strong holds, even for a time.” Daniel 11:24 (KJB)
What began as a direct confrontation between Israel, the United States, and Iran has now metastasized into something far larger. Missiles are flying across borders, drones are swarming the skies, naval forces are positioning in strategic waterways, and at least 20 nations are now either directly involved or caught in the blast radius of the conflict. Bases are being struck, alliances are activating, and the global chessboard is rapidly rearranging itself.
Countries Now Directly Involved or Attacked
Depending on how you count (combatants, bases, or nations hit by missiles), about 15–20 countries are now involved or directly affected.
Main combatants:
- United States
- Israel
- Iran
Other nations now involved:
- France
- United Kingdom
- Australia
- Greece
- Turkey
- Russia
- China
- Taiwan
Countries hit by Iranian missiles/drones or hosting US forces
- Saudi Arabia
- United Arab Emirates
- Qatar
- Bahrain
- Kuwait
- Jordan
- Iraq
- Oman
- Turkey
- Azerbaijan
- Lebanon (Hezbollah involvement)
- Cyprus (UK base struck)
If you have even a passing familiarity with Bible prophecy, you should feel the hair on the back of your neck standing up right now. The Bible does not predict a peaceful road leading to the appearance of Antichrist. Instead, it tells us that the last days will be marked by escalating wars, chaos among nations, and a global system struggling to maintain control. Jesus Himself warned that this would be the atmosphere of the end times.
“For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. All these are the beginning of sorrows.” Matthew 24:7-8 (KJB)
What we are watching unfold in the Middle East fits perfectly into that prophetic framework. This is not the end yet, but it is exactly the kind of destabilizing global conflict that moves the world closer to the moment when a false messiah will step forward promising peace. And that peace will be a lie. Trump’s Board of Peace in Gaza is doomed to failure before it ever even gets off the ground in you believe the prophets. “Believest thou the prophets?”
Emmanuel Macron orders armada to the Mediterranean

The prophet Daniel tells us that Antichrist will come to power through diplomacy and deception, presenting himself as the man who can solve the world’s impossible problems.
“And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand.” Daniel 8:25 (KJB)
Think about that for a moment. What kind of world would be desperate enough to accept a global political savior? A world exhausted by war, a world terrified by instability, a world watching alliances collapse and nations burn. In other words, a world that looks exactly like the one we are watching develop right now.
The Middle East has always been the prophetic epicenter of end-times events, and Iran sits right in the middle of several key prophetic trajectories. Whether you look at Ezekiel 38, the alignment of nations around Israel, or the constant drumbeat of conflict surrounding Jerusalem, the pattern is unmistakable. The stage is being set.
“For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled.” Revelation 17:17 (KJB)
Now, does this current war mean that World War III has officially begun? No. But it absolutely demonstrates how quickly the entire planet could be dragged into one. The last century proved how regional wars can explode into global ones. World War I began with a single assassination. World War II began with a territorial invasion. Once alliances begin activating and major powers begin maneuvering, events can spiral out of control faster than anyone expects. And right now, the dominoes are standing closer together than they have in decades.
Now The End Begins is your front line defense against the rising tide of darkness in the last Days before the Rapture of the Church
