Welcome to my channel about war. We must study war not to glorify it, but rather to wage it as efficiently as possible, minimizing suffering. For more about me or my books, go here: www.seanmcfate.com
Kautilya aimed for a unitary type state with decentralisation and local self within its provisions. His goal unlike more of Imperial Western type hegemony was in a protection and fostering of Dharma in the world through the unified state. Kautilya's strategy unlike Sun Tzu was more in building a state and making it flourish rather than just warfare. But to establish a state, u need warfare and that's where he gave the military and warfare strategies. There's something called, "AptāDharma" that is which is "adharma" bestowed during times to crisis or for greater nonle cause becomes "dharma" like u lie to Criminals if they ask someone's address u know. If u tell truth that becomes adharma instead. So the so-called "immoral strategies" given(considering there isn't ethics in warfare) is to destroy the adharmik rulers or corrupt, evil, oppressors and establish a state based on dharma or righteous conducts. So if u take immoral actions momentarily or temporarily for a future moral establishment there's nothing wrong.
If you note, this guy keeps bringing the Western writer in between to effectively undercut Kautilya, who had written his treatise much before any of the Western thinkers had written anything or were even civilized, which happened 2000 years ago with the invention of Christianity to control the pagans in Europe.
There were several thousand hellenes with the 300 Spartans at Thermopylae. The movie 300 is a comic book mostly wrong as history. There is a controversy over whether historical movies should strive to be as accurate as possible. I am behind accuracy, especially when the actual history is quite entertaining by itself (e.g. for me Braveheart is one of the worst movies ever made).
This whole video sounds to me designed to subtly say israel didnt lose and just lost an informational war. Really? More than half the global mainstream media is in zionist hands, and you're saying this war was only an informational loss? What a load of horsesh.t.
What a wonderfully sanitised version of events.... you miss or gloss over all the Israeli atrocities. September 16, 1982, Israel perpetrated a 43-hour massacre, killing an estimated more than 3,000 Palestinian women and children in Sabra and Shatila Refugee Camps in Southern Lebanon. The Palestinian men had left in an agreement that the Americans a multinational force would provide security. Ariel Sharon (later elected prime minister of Israel) oversaw the operation.
How so? The Zionist version is that the IDF crushed Hezbollah because they inflicted more casualties, and that the antisemtic UN stopped the brave boys of the Tzahal from pushing to the Litani - where did McFate say that in this video? It’s a good presentation
patent nonsense in the first 13 minutes - maybe a scholar of warfare but def not a historian! check Sir Martin Gilbert or the declaration of independence which invited all people of all faiths to co-exist in peace in Israel...it was the Arab states that waged war on Israel not the other way around as you state so emphatically and falsely! please issue an apology and rewrite your scipt!
To say should go out all and it makes since is literally the stupidest thing ive heard as youll bankrupt the county as well as have more enemy's then before that not even smart not even a little bit
lol i like how just like israel was like lets just get out i mean whats the point. lol not that they had armed restinces wiping the floor with them no it was not that lol its a very inaccurate way of telling history mate.
How exactly can one claim that Mao was _ever_ weak? The entire premise goes unexplained. I could see how he could be considered comparatively weak at certain points - much like the United States. But Mao had such a massive advantage in resources that only an absolute imbecile would claim he was weak (or the people who are just mindlessly repeating his propaganda with no regard for accuracy).

59:00 the undesirable like vagabond laws? Or homelessness being criminalized in general? Or like the native Americans? Maybe getting rid of those lazy blue haired millennials? He was getting rid of wealthy hoarding trash the true parasites of humanity. I can't imagine paying attention neverthe less money.brother, its been an hour and no examples of urban warfare.
Everyone in comments talking about saving "Dharma" but everyone have their own interpretation of "Dharma". And this division have continued to exist for centuries and centuries, this division is sole reason why we were conquered & enslaved again, again and again. And we learned absolutely nothing from the history!
We learn everything from history science, maths, politics is nothing but collection of historic facts. If you believe we learn nothing then you're tend to make same mistake. Everything we know is history. Maybe sometimes it's not as pleasing as one would assume but it still dictates the future heavily.
