Audio loss aside, could we turn the volume up on some of the guests next time please? Very hard to balance on audience end when there's such a disparity between the audio levels of the speakers.
What do you mean by Radical Islam and Islamist Ideology? What a racist mindset.And what a waste of my time listening to how to fund this narrative by the Govt. Simply shocked at the mental programming techniques of instigating and abetting chaos within peace loving societies.

The Western way of war is to con people in other countries to do their fighting for them - but western Ukraine has now run out of soldiers. This leaves the West with the choice of pumping its own unwilling soldiers into the meat grinder, unleashing a suicidal nuclear war, or surrendering to a negotiated settlement on Russian terms.
OMG. It looks like learned the wrong lesson from Afghanistan, the exactly opposite to the one he should have learned! Not even the one about abandoning projects and allies but that the western expeditionary forces would be able to prevail against Russia! And what western superior technology he is talking about? And he quotes Sunak! What kind of professor is he?
I was convinced that he would say financing and aiding Franco's uprising in Spain was the Reich's "first move" like Manchuria was for Japan, but alas. Valuable reframing of the chronology of ww2 and clearly very erudite, though I'm a little frustrated by how vaguely he uses imperialism in a few bits of the lecture
I've got a lot of time for Professor Overy. I don't agree with him on everything, but his scholarship is of the highest standard and he has a knack for explaining complex issues in a simple and engaging fashion. A truly great historian.
"Educated" never been,seen,or done anythings,doing their Denigration....of The People, The Country,having not had a fight in their Silverspoon lives. PATHETIC !! SHAME !!
The Heritage Foundation Obama Is No Friend of Britain-Sunak Should Invite Trump - Mr. Obama held “informal talks” with Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, discussing artificial intelligence as well as the work of the Obama
Of course there is a link between how people treat animals and how they treat each other. Russians have no respect for life - they seem to enjoy watching animals and humans suffer. Their attitude comes from the lack of sympathy, spawned by hatred of other nations promoted by their authoritarian government. You can see the effect of Soviet psyche on countries when you travel east from Germany - the closer you get to Belarus and Russia, the less humane and the less sympathy you find. Cruelty to animals is clearly a sign of mental depravity. If dogs would have known how they would be treated, locked into small cages, chained to short chains, they would never have become man's best friend. Slava Ukraini!
Dr Boyd’s book is a strategic must have and this talk and input from Professor Kennedy in the discussion that follows adds more insight to the strategic choices, if not dilemmas, faced in the Indian and Pacific Oceans in the late pre-war and early war period.
I'm glad I graduated from KCL War Studies in 2001. The turgid, ivory tower hoodlums plus their banal, boring, feminine & non-Caucasian lack of wisdom is illustrative of why the West is going downhill in fifth gear.
His views on Putin are most interesting and explain what happened in Ukraine. It is about Russian self-esteem more than anything else to regain that territory. Surprisingly, I found Howard to be slightly sympathetic towards the USSR and the communists in particular, as he showered heaps of praise over those who fought the Nazis and how central planning(without specifically naming it) Industrialized that country after the 1917 Revolution.
Your video is very beautiful. I like it a lot. I have been trying to talk to you for a long time. I am waiting for your response. Please give me a chance to talk to you👍
There is some problem with your RU-vid video so views are not coming. Doing something on your video will make your video go viral. Your video has not been SEO so there are no views. I can bring more views and subscribers to your videos.
We need as many countries aligned with us as we can get! 50 western countries backing Ukraine to fight a single corrupt, unmotivated dictatorship and we're losing? And we want to actually go head to head with china next?? If NATO can get every single country unified with them, they couldn't put together an IKEA bookshelf.
Regarding Chinas naval strategy, I think the Soviet admiral Sergey Gorshkov and his ideas and shaping of the soviet navy would be more relevant than Sun Tzu. I agree with professor Andrew Lambert that the response of a classic continental power is to see the sea as a threath.
I'm from eastern Europe and was unimpressed by the lecture, nothing was mentioned of the Stalin -Hitler pact and the fact that the Russians were the same sort of empire as the Axis powers.
I also noticed that. I liked his general approach of prolonging the chronology of WW2 and linking it to Imperial competition, but at the same time he seemed to use "empire" to specifically denote French and English empire. He seemed most nuanced when he mentioned mercantilism and the Axis' intent to capture resources and protected markets. But for that matter, weren't the us and Soviets also interested in controlling key resources and markets , not shying from using military means agaisnt sovereign states to obtain them? (Soviet invasion of Finland, Us occupation of Phillipines + all kinds of colonialism in Latin America for example
