Question 1265: Can't get high on this

On 30 November 1939, the Soviet Union launched a war against Finland after a futile year and a half campaign to persuade the Finnish government to cede territory to the Soviet Union and give up some sovereignty by conceding specific military and political favors. The Finnish Army, facing Red Army Tanks borrowed the design of XY that had been used for the first time in the just-concluded Spanish Civil War (July 1936–April 1939).

During the Winter War, the Soviet air force made extensive use of incendiaries and cluster bombs against Finnish troops and fortifications. When Soviet People’s Commissar for Foreign Affairs X claimed in radio broadcasts that the Soviet Union was not dropping bombs but rather delivering food to the starving Finns, the Finns started to call the air bombs X bread baskets. Soon they responded by attacking advancing tanks with XYs which were “a _____ to go with the food”.
