There's a book called Windswept Lies of War, and it talks from censored history and hidden secrets to lost files and classified documents about World War II, it's the real deal.
"The world war he started has come back home... " Powerful!
5:20, Benjamin Franklin said, "Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.." I wish we'd learned this lesson from history better...
This video is way too short to cover all the mistakes they made, there were a plethora of mistakes. One after the other.
When you don't consider the needs of others, there will always be a correction. Harmony is the only way to go in the world of human endeavors.
Forming an alliance with Japan certainly didn’t help.
The Titanic survivor second officer Charles Lightoller had also volunteered to sail his personal yacht among the 800 private boats to help with the evacuation from Dunkirk.
Why jumping back and forth over the calendar, rather than editing the video to discuss events sequentially from the start of the war to its end?
Thanks for the tips, wont gonna do these mistakes next time
Being mind bogglingly evil was probably the first mistake.
By what I understand Hitler's position was a no-win situation. By not invading Russia and settling for France, Poland and Austria, Russia would have declared war on Germany at some point. Am I wrong about this?
Overconfidence due to initial success led to a feeling of invincibility. In turn taking on too many highly industrialised countries at once.
Foch predicted another world war. He called Versailles a 20-year armistice. Which timing-wise was almost bang on.
He made more than one mistake doing drugs not listening to his generals to name a couple
According to historical records, Japan didn’t leave the US Navy “desolate” as stated. Their ill-planned, cowardly move unsuccessfully damaged the number of vessels intended, as many were not harbored. However, what the Japanese succeeded in doing was to incite anger, war with the US, and mass-patriotism. Jmo
Soon as they start blanking out scenes puts me off in the end. Gave up straight away.
The really ironic and tragic part of this whole history is that Stalin killed more of his fellow countrymen then the WWII conflict did across the entire world. Before WWII
13:42 It's not true that Chamberlain's bad health forced him to resign. It may have been a small contributing factor but it was the fact he lost support of his people (particularly the conservatives) due to his poor defeats. He failed to liberate Norway in April 1940, for example. He wasn't a convincing leader. In fact, he was too soft.
