I saw the premier notification and then I saw the first comment talking about alyk. Fuck that conversation is one of the saddest things I saw. Imagine fighting alongside your comrade in Afghanistan for basically no reason, forming a close bond, and getting to be friends. Just for you two to stamd opposed to eachother in another battlefield again for basically no reason. War is hell, the price of war isn't numbers on a screen, it's sons, husbands, fathers, friends, comrades, and civilians.
To be honest I don't think that it really happened, maybe only few occasions. Moreover, federal soldiers were protecting Russian people and Chechnya and were fighting against bandits, so they had reason
Those mi 24s in the backgroud and the building's windows lighting with the gunshots had me going crazy. Really appreciate how much detail and work you put into these man, take care ❤
@@HistoryFeelsyooo man I have a suggestion I know you don't cover south America a lot but I was wondering if u can do something about mexico and cartels and a song you could choose is: Sonríeme by la tropa vallenata but you're mexican military fighting (insert cartel group) in (insert location)
The story of Alik and his friend is one of the most tragic war stories. Once comrades fighting shoulder to shoulder, they were ultimately compelled to turn against each other...
Goodbye Maria, I’m Off To Korea. But you are a U.S. Marine on a Ridge During a Snow Storm in The Chosin Reservoir fighting off the Chinese Army as they Advance.
Isn’t this the battle from which “Call Moscow, on TV they are saying we are having ‘minor exchanges of fire’ - that’s that they’re calling us getting surrounded and destroyed” is from?
@CharaDreemurr_Undertale the concept of X but Y videos is to make you feel the suffering they've gone through. The source of the background audio doesn't matter
Now you're back I thought I'd give a few ideas for future edits. - 'Bad to the bone' but your driving a stolen m60 through the streets of San Diego - 'Батько наш - Бандера' but a mysterious man just sprayed you in the face with a chemical. - 'House Burning Down' but you're an LAPD officer during the Rodney King riots. - Possibly some kind of dual Israel-Palestine thing like what you did with Russia-Ukraine, but if you think that's too risky, I don't blame you. - 'Song of the Far Eastern army' but you're beginning your push into Manchuria. - 'Heia Safari' but you're hunting down Simba rebels in the Congo. - 'Bomber (Motorhead)' but your striking targets in Libya, 1986. Some fictional/alt hist ideas: - 'Nkosi Sikelel' iAfrika' but you just kicked the French out of west Africa and overthrew the Afrika-Schild. - 'GO!!!(FLOW)' but you're dogfighting over Tsushima and there's a J-20 on your tail.
The Heia safari one is genius. Mine is "Don't tell mom i'm in Afghanistan" but your crew is taking cover behind the mountains, While waiting for reinforcements.
@@Guywithabadenglish Double cap. Russians make these songs to try get their experiences and thoughts to the general public after the party sits them down and says "If you say anything? You're Gone. We know where to find you." Therapy? Reaching out to people? Support? All is a bad, bad joke for the conscripts and professional soldiers alike. Short version - these songs are the end result of extensive demoralizing experiences.
@@hallowedbeyourdays Nope. Russian millitry songs are mostly as a way to show reality of war, with comraderie or personal experiences, also, what party? Name a single party that executed or imprisoned a person for speaking out against the government. Also, Theraphy barely helps, and barely pays, no one wants to hear your problems, anywhere, anytime; there is no "Reching out to people" because they will make fun of you, again, this isn't "Russia-Exclusive". What Support do you have? They have millitary support, the only support you have is your chair. And Professional soldiers are conscripts, Conscription dosen't change experience or training, those songs are a form of Therapy for those who need it, this is why they tell stories based on their wars, especially since modern-Day Russia offers support to PTSD'ed soldiers, same cannot be said about your best friend america, that makes their veterans homeless. Also, again, Those songs are the oppposite, what is demoralizing is the war, not their support in the country, they have extremely high morale for their nation and for their homes, not for a politician like you think so. People fight for their honeland, not for rich people to step on them, the songs are meant to raise morale and to document their experience, as almost everyone does, these songs are a result of Art and personal experiences. Again, people who think conscription is bad because yes are stupid.
Here is a translation of all the talks on the walkie-talkie on video (which I could hear and were not inserted into the subtitles): "I can't see anything, help me!" "I'm throwing a grenade! Where are they from anyway? They're everywhere!" "I was attacked! Attention to all posts!" "They're killing us here!" "We're all going to die here, we're all finished! Mom..." "Mom... Mom! Save me!" Most likely, these are phrases from movies, but they really catch the soul
Run through the jungle" but you're running to the evac site "La victoire est a nous" but the Prussian have arrived at Waterloo "Napalm sticks to kids" but you're losing your sanity in My lai "Welcome to the jungle" but Noriega is refusing to surrender "Sunday bloody sunday" but you're targeting civilians in Bogside
“Azza fi hawak” but your barge is being ambushed by SPLA rebels on the Nile River “Stand Up for the Revolution” but your RPG team just got located by an Israeli AC-130 “We are the Soldiers of God” but you realized too late the civilian was an Anyanya militant
Solid work as always bru, radio convo gives me chills every time I hear it Also, video idea "Fire by Crazy World of Arthur Brown but you're on RT Alabama facing off against 2 battalions of NVA in Laos"
So glad to see you posting again man, love your vibs but make sure not to be pressure to keep posting too much, so love your content and keep it up but also make sure not to overwork yourself too ❤
I remember how my father often took me with him to visit his friend, with whom he went through 2 Chechen wars. Only when I was 17 did I understand why they sat silently by the grill, smoked and stared into space.
Much like many of the other "forgotten wars", The Korean war being such an example, Its genuinely horrific learning about these things. This war lasted less than 2 years but somehow came out with 200,000+ casualties and brother vs brother. What a shitshow.
A russian soldier 8 months back made a video and it was him singing and playing a guitar and throught the whole song you can hear gun shots and explosions in the back... it truely is terrifying how similar it is to this video. The video about the russian soldier is called Just don't tell my mother im in bakhmut
The voice recording in the start is between a Russian and chechen general. They've fought together before the fall of the USSR in battle only to have to attack eachother. In the recording the chechen was begging the Russian not to go further because he knew they would die and the Russian did take a little pause to think. Only a handful of the 1000+ men in that brigade survived a following ambush and the Russian did die in battle and the chechen later died in a prison I believw
It’s crazy how the word “mother” is written very similarly in other languages besides English take the word “mama” in English. Now compare it to Spanish, Russian, German, Italian, Vietnamese, Swedish… really shows how universal your parents are. Sorta fitting for this song because it’s about a soldier writing to his mother about war.
"Rebel Yell! But you are really Rebel Yelling with your Confedarates💂🪖 brothers while charching against the human wall of Union Soldiers🇺🇸💂🪖 during the Civil War...
when I heard this several days ago, I believed that russians decided to launch an attack on our trench I should really avoid listening to this type of music when I'm on the 0 line
the tragedy of the Chechen Wars is that they were never truly won. The warlord in control of Chechnya during the war simply became the leader of his own district within the Russian Federation, and is paid large sums of rubles to keep him in line. To this day, Chechnya is the most heavily subsidized region in all of Russia.
Idk if you do ww1 anymore, but if you see this i'd love to see something about the final light horse charge of beersheba. none the less good to see you posting again.
