Neutron Bomb: The Toxic Warhead Designed For Maximum Radiation | M.A.D World | Timeline 

Ah, a documentary about the neutron bomb, except that it’s a 3 hour doc about the Cold War.

This doc is all over the place.

Man yall should have included that story of the man who stole a helicopter during the American evacuation, flew it to an American ship with his family aboard, let his family get off the chopper onto the ship, and then because there was no place to actually land on ship jumped from the flying helicopter into the sea as the chopper crashed into the water. He survived the jump and was picked up by the ship. Such an incredible story.

At what point does this video about the neutron bomb actually talk about the neutron bomb? Great history lessons about Chile, Vietnam, and Angola (so far).

1:04:46-1:05:00 That man straight up said what was going to happen in the future, not just of Afghanistan, but a large part of Western Asia and the Middle East. Also this whole documentary was like a hitlist of all the headlines I heard as a kid in the 80s but was too young to understand and history classes just brushed over or didn't cover at all in middle school/high school.

Anyone here old enough to have seen, "It's a mad, mad, mad, mad world"? That's what I always think about when this topic comes up. We were talking about M.A.D. a lot when it came out. It's a comedy, of course, having nothing to do with the bomb.

Zipped on over to Simon Whistler for a doc about ... the neutron bomb

I think it's the 2nd time I have been watching this incredible video....thank you for sharing. The oligarchy class was not middle class of 🇨🇱 Chile. Benochiat regime crushed middle class and worker classes together and returned oligarchy superiority beneath Chilean society and returned conservative influences besides USA 🇺🇸 economic activities.

"They call them weapons of mass destruction, but they're not. They're very *very* selective about what they destroy. They annihilate people and preserve things. They love things." -- Hurly Burly (1998)

I thought this was a about Nutron Bombs....it's a repeat.....

Now we are back to square one. Great progress!

Despite having little to do with the neutron bombb it still holds relevance.

At the 1 hour 39 minutes and 30 seconds this video states After 9 years the USSR admits they recovered the Cockpit Recording device and then no more info. Video then does straight in to Grenada. I will try to find out what information is attained by releasing the cockpit recording .

as ever, excellent work. you’ve earned another loyal subscriber :)

Too much anger from both sides led to worldly pains

I lived through the era of the Cold War. I was 20 when the Berlin Wall came down. It was a time of having in the back of your mind that every second could be our last. But we did it.

I love when a country nationalizes and then still expects loans and handouts from other countries. lol If you nationalize you need to be ready to go it alone. You are on your own. Indepenence means exactly that.Do it yourself.

This might be the BEST channel on youtube.

This couldln't actualy be more incorrect. The Neutron bomb is improperly named; it is really a hydrogen bomb without the U238 wrapper. As such it does produce very high energy neutrons but it doesn't have the U238 to create heavy radioactive materials; so it is high energy but very short term only a few moments; but relatively low in what most people call radiation which is long term heavy element radiation. The blast is also far less as the U238 fission gives much of megatons of punch. So rather than long term radioactive a neutron bomb is relative small megatons and short term.

And then, a few years later, we fell into the same trap in Afghanistan. We went into the country after Osama Bin Laden but we were sucked into a war with the Taliban that basically ended in the same fashion as it did for the us in Vietnam. We didn't learn a damn thing from Vietnam! I served as a US Marine from 1968 to 1971 but didn't get to Vietnam, serving a year on Okinawa in a support role. I just hope that we have learned, as a society as a whole, to stay out of these foreign wars, but I doubt it.

I grew up in the 60-70s and recall the fear of Russia over running Europe and how the neutron bomb could stop the waves of soviet tanks without turning Europe into a barren landscape with nuclear bomb destruction. …..growing up during the Cold War in San Francisco, we were surrounded with and lived in a military culture..watching the Vietnam war every night on the news, Russia s threats on Europe, IRA bombings in Northern Ireland, airplane high jackings by the PLO (Palestinian Liberation Organization) a few times a month…several war between Arabs states and Israel crazy period to have grown up with wars and the hippies at the same time…

2:52:10 People often say this is when the Cold War was won and lost, the day The Wall came down. Not so. The Cold War was won and lost on August 13, 1961, the day The Wall was built. When you have to build a prison perimeter fence to stop the flow emigres out of your country and into The West, you have lost the argument...The Cold War was lost by the Soviet system on that day, the rest of it was just bowing to the inevitable.

Awesome a new episode!!

Gorbachev had " Prestroika" openess. He was the first Soviet leader to actually go out and meet the public. He was surprised when he was being told by many Soviet citizens they were worried about a nuclear confrontation against the United States.

3 freaking hours?? Not going to finish it while I'm young!!

1:52 buddy got a face full steel ! I wonder what happened to that guy !

A very balanced look at the Cold War . Well worth the watch

Great video, very enjoyable to watch very well made

When there is Suffering and Mayhem to be had .. you can always trust Timeline to exploit it for financial gain.

I remembered watching the border of east meets west Germany crumble in 1989 on tv. My only thoughts were, " I wished I was at the party."

Good documentry

i thought this was about the Neutron Bomb?? wtf

THE BEST TO PREVENT WARS IS WITH TRUTH AND BE STRONG RSVP

excellent❤

Thanks for the peace world❤

Damn. Things just keep looking grim.

I loved it when the man said that now, as the cold war is over, all that weapons money could be spend on better things. 😂 And the military/political complex said : hold my beer!! 😂😂😂😂

To give you some idea how fast the Soviet Union collapsed, my original draft of Bandit Hwy had commies as the bad guys! I was halfway through outlining the 3 Act plot composition & suddenly realised ' F@ck! I need a new bad guy!?' 🥺😭

There are still designated places of refuge in Vancouver.

Even after watching those Reagon/Press events live so many years ago it still amazes me now how Reagan put up with those vile P.O.S. so called reporters year after year. And they say its bad now.

46:08 neutron bomb

Where’s the neutron bomb? Is this a bait and switch?

And too think that they still hold that beautiful country in their iron grip.

Almost nothing about the neutron bomb. The whole title seems to be clickbait

There's talk of a mountain of fire and wondered what that might be and then thought of the biggest nuclear blasts.

The ONLY neutron warhead to ever exist as a weapon system in use was the Lance Missile and it was never even mentioned

2:57:00 I know when I have a field to plow, the first tool in my box is a retired Soviet tank with a plow attachment.

Awesome video keep up the good work ❤

The old bait & switch

I may, or may not attend services on Nov. 11. Still, i will remember.

40 mins in, not a word about the bomb itself.

We need a real leader at this most dangerous time. You look how Kennedy and Regan handled things, and spoke during their time, we have a guy who can't complete a sentence or looks lost all of the time. Very terrifying times.

The biggest problem was countries would say they wanted socialism looking at European models for socialism and America would hear Communism. Also at the root was American companies were worried about their investments they had made going into dust if the country nationalized. In the Middle East and elsewhere companies would just be making back the money they had spent on exploration and drilling, refining, shipping and other infrastructure costs only to have it all swept away. People talk about greedy oil companies but they got burned over and over when they got their works nationalized. We should have made things joint ventures. Nowadays China is running into similar problems with putting in infrastructure but not having the money spent paid back. Countries are also upset because they only used Chinese labor so skills and money for hiring local labor becomes a reason companies don't want to pay them back. They are learning the super power blues. The USSR went under because they didn't get paid for all the infrastructure and weapons they shelled out. Russia has learned the lesson and avoids loans to countries that are in poor shape to pay them back. Weapons its cash up front. Now they are hurting because they have been made to look like third rate weapons.

are these people under oath with penalties of imprisonment if they knowingly lie

Nikita krushev reminds me of my grandmother 👵😅😂 lol

This is a really sad story about the USA.

This video has absolutely nothing to do with the hydrogen bomb!

Oddly, this video does NOT talk about the NEUTRON BOMB at all.

I still have guity secrets about the Pointer Sister's " Neutron Dance " .

I DIDNT KNOW THAT THE USA HAD STOPPED AID TO SOUTH VIETNAM.

Why is this video called neutron bomb? I'm half way through it and I haven't seen anything on the neutron bomb yet.

Long live Salvador Allende!

The insanity of mankind …

I don't think there was ever any mention of neutron bombs.

Thought this was a doc on the neutron bomb?

It's really a dirty move to put the ads inside the vid.

Oh yeah

What ever did the United security counsel do? About Korean flight 007

Take the advertising away its abot an hour long.

Very interesting how we were never told about Regan and diversion of funds with out his knowledge. One thing to point out, they always have the same accusations, same talking points, a lot of the same actions. Notice how they keep talking about how they are experimenting?

I gave it an hour and there was zero mention of neutron bombs. Maybe a change to the title is in order.

The Neutron dance was kinda toxic with 3 sexy pointer sisters , UH , not the same thing ?

granada had a school of us students also..........but medals were giving out on indy lol

You know it's bad when we develop expressions like Mutually Assured Destruction .. and think we're intellectual .. obviously we're doing so well

Superfly "TNT"THE MOVIE. ECHOED some of this Documentary.

Salt was worthless and still is!

This is all insanity. I am sorry i dont want to blame anybody. Were all caught up in this.

SUBHANALLAH WALHAMDULILLAH WALAILAHA ILLALLAAH WALLOHU AKBAERRR WALAHA WALAKUATA ILLABILLAHI ALIUL ADZIM ALLOHU AKBARRRRR

If there is deceit in the title, there is a lot of deceit in the production.

An embarrassing time to be an American. 😢

Some of the most influential capatilists ever still say Marx hadda few things right.

Rats would never build themselves ... a rat trap ... but humans think it's OK to do so...!

How does this vary from the cherry bomb

where's the bomb? (Neutron Bomb: The Toxic Warhead Designed For Maximum Radiation | M.A.D World | Timeline) lots of stuff on the coldwar instead.

Nobody’s scared of your rockets haha fun fun

Hello

".....and f@ck your short memories...." 🎶

And it continues, oligarch slavers vs the socialist. I can't believe I live through this

Think about this a lot of what they're showing us before many young people today were even born think about what happened before you were born did they learn about that or you taught that in school?

Ye

Click bait!!! About cold war not neutron bomb , do not watch

What happened to south Vietnam is what kim wants to do, invading south korea by the north

I closed after the introduction on Chile. Factually, as Congressional investigation revealed, the US is not responsible for the Chilean economy collapse or the coup. Allende implemented Marxist reforms and the economy failed. Of course no one was going to provide access to credit for him as his economy spiraled into high inflation and deficit. Allende was also not a democrat and was trying to install a dictatorship as per his collaboration with Fidel Castro and KGB suggested. Attempts to consolidate military power in his hands, brutal crackdown on protests and refusal to dismiss a defense minister that fired his weapon at a civilian after a road range incident pushed the military to stage a coup (a coup of which the US was aware, Allende was aware, but the CIA was not involved as per Congress investigation).

So when do they get to the neutron bomb?

57:22

Afghanistan HAS NATURAL RESOURCES. The MONEY MAKER IS OPIUM.

stop blurring it. its an educational video. all war bad need to learn

Chile elects a marxist president and the country falls apart. Thats weird...

27:40 Who was he referring to as betraying his Country? The North Vietnamese? The South Vietnamese? Himself for leaving “his country?” The soldier that killed himself? The Soviet Union? The 58,000 dead U.S. soldiers? The French military The U.S. Military? Who was his hatred for? I’d like to ask him. I’d like to ask him at his house in The United States. We could BBQ some hot dogs in his backyard and watch football.

Those Russians just need to surrender. Russia is treating their men like garbage and wasting them. Today 74 were killed at once and its said these soldiers were marched to the area on purpose and used as bait. Sick
