@@jeffmarlatt6538 it's hard to say o nyoutube without your comment getting deleted. 60 of the mwere arrested the week following 9'll, 5 of them were dancing and went on lsraeIi tv and said they were there "to document the event". they had prior knowledge. they are the only ones to benefit from the attacks
He had an awesome title "His excellency, president for life, field marshal Al hadji doctor idi amin, VC, DSO, MC, CBE, Lord of all the beasts of the earth and the fishes of the sea and conqueror of the british empire in africa in general and uganda in particular"
But he was the king royal rifles in WW2, he backslide completely. I saw a documentary indicating that the Palestinians (the leaders, that is, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem) were friends of Hitler.
"Noone is more hated than the one who speaks the truth" - Plato That´s why Idi Amin became so hated. (He was wrong about the 6 million but that´s irrelevant in this case). A great man. You may even call him an Honorary Aryan.
One of this "Great Man"s" favourite entertainment was to line prisoners up, 1st man had to kneel and the 2nd man kill him with a hammer. 2nd man had then to pass hammer back to 3rd man then himself kneel and so on. He was among the cruelest of the cruel.
@Sniegel You're honoring him by calling him the lowest form of life in the West? LOL! You even quoted Plato. Quoting Plato to defend a tyrant is like quoting Hitler to defend the Jews. Next you'll quote MLK to make your case as a white nationalist. Pathetic.
@@saubhikbhattacharjee6023bro you are right they use their fighter pilots for suicide mission especially using their war planes to hit US warships directly which was called in Japanese language kamikaze
@@1hel You are an idiot. Uganda is not part of India. British Indians who had British Indian Passport( basically those who supported the British Raj or Industrialists or Businessman) went there to do the exact same thing which East India Company did to us viz Loot the resources. And you mentioned the word "Miya Sala" which means you are against Illegal migration from Bangladesh. So, why should Uganda have sympathy for Indian Migrants who went there?
@@manasburagohain3764 Indian's in Uganda were taken by British as slaves nd labourers same as afro-americans from Africa they didn't have a choice,U should be an DumbF** to even compare them with illegal immigration from Bangladesh to India.
@mikhailv67 Watched it. Big letdown. Not realistic, not believable as the film never got me into the right timeline, it always felt like a movie of these days. Whittaker was good as Amin, but nowhere near as good as Joseph Olita. James McAvoy was cringey and so bland. "The Rise and fall of Idi Amin Dada" and "General Idi Amin Dada: A self Portrait", are so far the other two films I watched about him. I liked both far more than "The last king" Looking forward to watch "Operation Thunderbolt" (1979) with Klaus Kinski, and "Victory at Entebbe", starring Anthony Hopkins, Burt Lancaster, Elizabeth Taylor, Richard Dreyfuss, and Kirk Douglas.
I've been a soldier in the same army that produced Idi Amin nearly all my life. I understand the way he thinks and he is very much a product of that institution. The British Army produced men of excellent quality and nurtured the inate talent of men like Idi Amin all over the world back then. Nations were forged by warriors and in my opinion all men need to go through the army if nations are to survive in any moral sense. It should certainly be a requirement to enter into politics.
@@greg_4201Is this still the case when the army is just as corrupt as the political institutions? Probably more corrupt if you consider the military industrial complex.
@@stunns2003 that's one of the most retarded things I've ever heard. at least in the US Military there is some corruption in terms of high ranking officers placed by Obama/Biden to not complain about liberal bullshit or illegal wars... but mostly just to not complain about downscaling, women in combat, racial quotas, etc.. that's about it... suggesting the military in western countries is generally corrupt is completely idiotic. if you'd ever been in one you'd know that. US is for sure the most 'corrupt' western military but I still hesitate to even use the word 'corrupt'... I have to wonder exactly wtf it is you think they get up to 🤦🏻♂️ anyway, US is another matter... it has no culture to defend in the firstplace. I wasn't talking about it specifically and it's weird that you think the special situation there should factor into what I'm saying about the west in general. besides, the military industrial complex has absolutely nothing to do with the serving military, you weirdo 🤦🏻♂️ I can't even imagine how you'd think that...
There's a lot of confusion about the suicide bombers he mentions. Well, they were not the suicide bombers of today. He meant air force combat units from an elite brigade nicknamed "Suicide". The one behind his ascent to power as it overthrew the previous government. Its' official name was the 5th Mechanised Specialist Reconnaissance Regiment, while colloquial names were 'Suicide Regiment' and 'Malire Mechanised Regiment' (suspect Malire means suicide in one of Uganda's Sudanic languages).
From Wikipedia: Of Nilo-Saharan, the Eastern Sudanic branch is well represented by several Nilotic languages, eastern as well as western. Eastern Nilotic languages include Karamojong of eastern Uganda (population 370,000), the Bari languages in the extreme north-western corner (about 150,000 population) and Teso south of Lake Kyoga (3.2 million 9.6% of Uganda's population).
Qaddaffi built a lot of barracks's in Uganda during Amin's regime. Some of army bases had a school as an extension. I went to one @@michaelharrison8036
omonil f he was the choice of people after coming to power he became corrupt with power and money..Before that he used to sing in the streets he was a entertainer
His plan to invade Israel sounds a bit goofy on the surface, but I've read declassified Israeli intelligence papers from the late 80's that stated something similar. The Israelis were paranoid that the emergence of a Palestinian state/military(this was when peace talks were getting started) would create a situation where they could exploit their proximity to major Israeli cities to conduct a first strike during an Arab-Israeli war, hindering Israel's mobilization(Israel is a tiny nation that depends on reserve mobilization to fight larger Arab armies). So Idi Amin's strategy of penetrating Israel with suicide attackers in order to disrupt is logical.
This man enjoyed his job ....... So relaxed....... How many presidents would enjoy a boat ride and an interview concurrently.....😃😃 Apart from his basic English, this man was not ignorant. He was informed.

I was taught by two Irish teachers, husband and wife, back in 1972 who had been Catholic missionaries in Uganda. They both helped run a boarding school. Every morning the staff had to be up a couple of hours before the kids to push dead bodies from the river bank back into the river current, just in case one of the boarders saw a relative. They said hundreds of bodies would float down the river. African tribalism is the worst form of racism in the world but it goes unreported until there's genocide.
there are so many reasons made Amin fall apart; he did know the status in spiritually affairs: iam sory for him; but having a huge body can not mean of having wisdom
U are talking about a genocide in Rwanda where bodies from river kagera which borders both Uganda and Rwanda were moving up to Uganda from Rwanda....we have not registered a single genocide in Uganda and I doubt we Will
All this with the backing of the British government. Idi Amin came to power with the help of the UK, who felt that he was someone easy to control unlike Dr Obote. So when the books of history are written about this guy, it must be remembered whose side his backers were. If Africans were let to run their own affairs, life for many would be easier.
hahahaha he was agood man he made Uganda great in that time and did many things. its just the white mans media that Brian washed them. hah but the todays Uganda is crap
@Rhamona jamimmah hahaah but still my dia I dont support support that thing of Asian owning our economy at least let's rule our selves. Uganda would be like south africa now . but my friend you cant lie that's that's the big problem. check out Rwanda went in genocide and they lost every thing. now after 25years Rwanda is now developed than Uganda. so brother that's weak issue to use its because of leader who are so corrupt and not loving there people. remember Uganda has much potential in many areas so it would be now so so far
by the way Amin loved his country so much he built roads and airports. now go to entebbe it's like a supermarket haah so ashaming . by the Amin put Uganda on map in the whole world
No way in hell I would have been on that boat with Idi Amin. Say the wrong thing and get thrown over the side with the crocodiles. Like the remark about Hitler. Idi Amin's laughter would have sent chills down my spine.
Listen to what he is saying. The Israeli people of today are not native to that land. They are colonizers who were refugees of lower and western Europe. This would mean they are not of Jewish or Hebrew decent. So were did all this come from? A lot of people gaslight and wanna get all ism'y in the comments and are truly ignorant. Look at whats happening in the region right now. The atrocities that are happening there and still people don't believe their lying eyes.
@@caniblmolstr4503 that's a great point...I can't believe I didn't put that together on my own. I am not a Trump fan, and would watch his pressers laughing so hard I couldn't breathe.
“Kind of funny” ? I guess If you like Evil, murdering Dictators? I suppose you think Hitler was a fine chap too, because he had a dog, so he must have been a good bloke?
Im from Kenya and this conversation made me laugh ...this dude was surely a lunatic ....he planned to invade israel all the way from Uganda what had east africa had to do with israel.......i wonder how Ugandans lived with him
at least he talk like a man , not like a puppet of ur foreftahers , who was dogs of Britian .. he was the only leader who whoped whites and Indian foreigners.. shut up and study ur own history
The jews had a couple countries in their mind where they wanna to create the state Israël? It was Madagaskar, Surinam , Palestina or uganda and they choose for Palestina. You stupid fool.
@Football Always / كورة دائمًا lsrael is the no 11 military in the world. They defeated all their foes since WW2. I mean, if lsrael lose a war they will seize to exist. Their God is also stronger than the Allah of the enemy. So it is quite a walk in the park for the IDF in the middle east.
This man was determined beyond his knowledge...but as a Ugandan, I respected him for being the most patriotic Uganda uneducated ruler. Ugandan currency was bigger in value than the US dollar during his time. Our country's currency was equivalent to the British pound in value and Uganda had no any external debt.
Lol ur obviously idiotic asf this is history fuck bag honestly don’t speak on behalf of isreal or Palestine if u can’t even determine that this is past tense by the camera quilts and the date on the letter fuck bag
He could, if he'd not made the tactical errors of replacing his competent commanders with illiterate loyalists and his ethnic brethren. Otherwise, the Uganda army had better equipment (which was not deployed in the war, for some reason) and Amin himself had a reputation as a good battle leader (well, cunning brutality).
@@rorymosley9356 he didn't invade, he lost control of his army and just claimed afterwards he ordered the invasion to save face publicly. So there goes the arena controlling
how many European and American Presidents can speak African languages fluently . Let alone just to speak any African word. So whats so special in English. Amin is even better in speaking their language than them speaking his Ugandan language. Next time learn to think before you say yo comment. Your brain is colonially brain washed. The good thing he can speak his own language fluently.
That man declared himself leader and master of all beasts of the Earth and all fishes of the sea, then gave himself a medal for it. Lmao. He then declared himself conquerer of the British Empire. Then, guess what!? He gave himself a medal for that. That man had hella erroneous assinine medals on his jacket. Hahaha. Idi Amin was comedy.
@@MBarksdale But he genuinely did give himself the ridiculous titles that the original commenter mentioned. I know that he was a skilled soldier who slowly worked his way up to become the Ugandan military's leader but the way you phrased your reply seems like you think that that redeems him in any way. He does not deserve to be praised for anything. He was a monster and deserves every bit of mockery his memory receives.
Super Paleoman Well. I wouldn't say that because we all know who wanted him out, are the same people who put him in power. Do you think Europeans would want to see africa as one country ? Nah. They are scared. Thats why they divided the africa.
2:54 Wow, I'm just learning about this man, He knew what exactly the reporter is getting him into, this is the second leader that I'm seeing to foresee where does the conversation is going, he shut off the irrelevant question of the reporter like a boss! Well done.
@@amirmoezz , I am hearing his name for second time. He was the overthrown in 1979 Iranian revolution and was last Shah of Iran. Could you give me the link of the Video where I can see how good was he in foresee the conversation. Btw are you from which country ?

an African country with nuclear weapons? BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH half of the countries in Africa have barely reliable electricity. With all of your cannibalism and blaming diseases on sorcerer and witchcraft, no one takes Africa seriously.
While the rest of the country would starve to death because all of the money would have gone into failed research and development of nuclear weapons. Stupid people, stupid thoughts. You only spend on weapons and state of the art military technology after you have secured enough to eat. Wars are not fought on empty stomachs and definitely not on empty brains.
he's laughing at the ridiculous, baiting question he was asked by the journalist, who was hoping to score a hit piece titled something like "Amin and Hitler". not at the Holocaust.
"I got good brain, now here are all my strategy and plan to invade and wage war on Israel" Amin was a scary intimidating man but perhaps not the most intelligent.
well know fact you stated plus pound for pound the most powerful man in Africa it is why British Colonial Army made him an officer by fighting the Maui Maui insurgency from Kenya and Tanzania.
A monster. It's disgusting to see people praising him in this comment section. Go and learn what atrocities he committed in Uganda then it won't be so funny.
Nyabire, a member of the Kakwa ethnic group, converted from Roman Catholicism to Islam in 1910 and changed his name to Amin Dada. He named his first-born son after himself. Abandoned by his father at a young age, Idi Amin grew up with his mother's family in a rural farming town in north-western Uganda
@@PrashadKaPrasad man, you're reading about him from far a distance. For us we're in the country he ruled. He was a patriot,a hero, and he loved his country like no one.
@@hydarisudais3959 that's bs. He was butcher. Killed hundred of thousand of innocent Ugandans. From opposition politicians to high ranking army officials, he tortured and killed everyone. He was a mad tyrant. He did so much war crime. Unfortunately he died peacefully.
+DonMrLenny so israel was dumb enough to train him and he slapped israel in the face.. israel needs to learn not to appease. There is another video where he spoke of getting on well with moshe dayan. It's a kind of reverse racism... leftist jews with white/jewish guilt, and no good righteous principled moral compass, being on good terms with the monster to make themselves feel better about themselves.
