Oh no, one escaped and is running America.

...only to see experiments in Georgia to use monkey sperm in human volunteers similarly fail.

You only miss a barfing smilie when you really need it...

According to Moscow newspapers, Stalin told the scientist: "I want a new invincible human being, insensitive to pain, resistant and indifferent about the quality of food they eat."

I'm not sure about the first half, but the second half could be achieved using the English as breeding stock. (Sorry, all in jest, but that was too good of an opportunity to waste.)

Gotta wonder about the guy and his personal preferences. "I'm having trouble getting any action around here..."

Reminds me of Super Mutants in Fallout game.. I wonder when will the next freak come into power to start an X-Men era.. Taking genetics improvement into consideration, it's a chance that the maniacs missed by several decades.

It has inspired me to become a despot.

Wow. I thought that article was a joke, but I guess it wasn't. Just wow.

[Upxl]

Makes you think doesn’t it?

[JAG]

I found it pretty funny.

[Sjakihata]

Indeed, quite humurous

Can anyone shorten the story for me. I don't want to read...

It seems a wrong-minded idea to me. Apes are not better soldiers than humans, and stupider humans are not better soldiers than smarter ones. Perhaps they would be easier to coerce into base industrial servitude, but I don't know-- humans have always worked pretty well for that, with the proper degree of ruthlessness.

DA

[Samurai Waki]

I love you Stalin.

Basically Stalin ordered a chief scientist Mr Ivanov to develop some super soldier, that was attempted in a breed between men and apes. He was sentenced 5 years of imprisonment because of his failure.

Yes, and he spent those 5 years in a cage full of apes - assuming that he could do a better observation close to them. Breeding was actualized but it was only Mr Ivanov being left dead..Ahem..
