The Broken Promise That Doomed The World To War | Impossible Peace | Timeline 

Agreed. Do we ever learn?

@@metamorphicme9378 nope

Why is it that Europe gave us two world wars and now it seems we are on the verge of a third one, also given to us by Europe...?

@@metamorphicme9378 We became complacent and our adversaries know Biden is feckless and ineffectual. They watched the disaster that was the Afghanistan exit.

I’ve been experiencing this is exact same thing, watched a few days worth of WW2 documentaries and history is definitely repeating itself

I think "in the devils dance" would have been a better ending for that quote, so that is how I am going to remember it.

Decent men should not be so naive.

@@fkjl4717 Yup. Decent men (and women) should be educated about the selfish, potentially-violent egotism of too large a portion of males.

@Min Tin Nope, never for no reason. Personal power and dynastic ambitions provide reasons aplenty for greedy authoritarians.

The GREAT decent men who recognize that authoritarians are EVIL will fight for decency. The only problem there is that in order to vanquish the evil, decent people need to be capable of otherwise nasty behavior. As Victor Davis Hanson points out, we can't win playing Marcus of queensbury rules.

@@jaydouglas8170 Agreed. “Beware that, when fighting monsters, you yourself do not become a monster... for when you gaze long into the abyss. The abyss gazes also into you.” ― Friedrich W. Nietzsche Happily, although first conceived to protect the powerful, laws and equitable law enforcement can be used to disempower malfeasants by isolating them from society. In other words, lock tRUMP and his cadre of thieves up.

You need to also check out the "People's Century" documentaries on here, very interesting.

@@VincentRE79 - Thank you for the recommendation. Wow, the "People's Century" is a great series as is this channel.

@@CadillacFleetwood68 No problem. People's Century is superb, don't know how I missed it at the time.

Oh that’s a nice 👍🏿 p

+Henrich Schmidt They dont mention that the infratructure improvment and how the organized crime families were destroyed in Germany?

@@strikerorwell9232 You always have to omit something. And why do you call me 'Heinrich'? You have only seen my name in writing?

@@henrikschmidt3964Oh? Sorry I didnt notice that? Anyway? They always exaggerate how "horrible" it was living under Napoleon, Stalin, Pinochet etc. Some good stuff and I mean wonderful stuff is always neglected to be mentioned by the historians even if it was tough for some people? You learn to appreciate the small things in life even under the French revolution and so on! I mean, they could perhaps enjoy some good cinnamon buns in the trenches in WW2? Its to much gloom and doom in these documentaries. Its called THE GOOD OLD DAYS for a reason.

@@strikerorwell9232 it’s not that the government were all bad. If literally everything they did was bad they wouldn’t be power very long. It’s just the fact you know... they were Nazis...

There's 2 versions of what happened in World War 2 : "The Official History" and "The Secret History". Which version do you like?

I say this every time someone tells me they don’t or won’t vote.

"A quote everyone can agree on regardless of what ideology they have" - Human.

@@AFGuidesHD biast quote so far

@@ryrify "if voting changed anything, they wouldn't let us do it." -Twain Wake up, these problems are too big to be solved by voting

Twain was a satirist.

It "started" quite innocently, way before WW2. *With a London policy.* I'm sure the British population and the inhabitants of Empire would have been happy if their toffs hadn't made Germany the enemy as a default setting. The best way to avoid going to war altogether, is to have leaders who don't make others "the enemy" as a default setting... [britannica(com)com/topic/balance-of-power] *According to London's own policy:* "Within the European balance of power, Great Britain played the role of the “balancer,” or “holder of the balance.” It was not permanently identified with the policies of any European nation, *and it would throw its weight at one time on one side, at another time on another side,* guided largely by one consideration-the maintenance of the balance itself." *The Germans, became "the enemy" because of where they lived and what they had (economy/power).* They took over this "role" from France, after 1871. They dared unite, and industrialize, and raise their own standard of living away from a purely agrarian society. Note: nothing personal. The policy didn't mention any names. It was simply "policy". *A few London lords made entire nations the "enemies" as a matter of policy.* It came first before all other considerations. It practically dictated how London acted (commissions as well as omissions) regarding 1) alliances 2) treaties (or no treaties) 3) non-aggression pacts (or no non-aggression per accord) 4) neutrality in a dispute (or when to jump in and meddle) 5) whose "side" to chose in crises (irrelevant of "right" or "wrong" from an objective standpoint) 6) when to engage in arms races 7) whom to "diss" and whom to "snuggle up" to at international conferences/peace conferences *Go over your history, and see its handwriting all around...* Enjoy.

I love this series !! My friends laugh & say I should be knitting !!

It is not Charlton Heston narrating; it is a British/Australian man., called Rod Mullinar.

​@@marthae9338 regardless he sounds like an old British Tom hanks

The main problem was France. Bismark deliberately misused France in 1870 to unify Germany (after the victory) in 1871 and by the way took Alsace-Lorraine from the French. This has upset the French politics so much that they were not thinking rationally when preparing the "Peace Treaties" with Germany, Austria and Hungary. It was this revenge spirit that lead Maréchal Foch, French General of WW I, to make the statement "this is not a peace. It is an armistice for 20 years".

Versailles insured another war? It was a bad peace deal.

Different accolades untie different isolations. On this site I’ll repeat a catastrophic formidable formulation payout in guarantees to less arrears. On this or that it’s the untie in its untold indices.

Thats what we are living now, thats why Macron said we do sanctions but we should not humiliate Russia.

​@@constantinioan5425Well, maybe, not everybody had nuclear weapons back then, so restraints were less serious.

But what is wrong with this policy? It largely kept the peace in Europe for the 19th century, and each European nation knew about it. 'The balance of power' included Britain itself, and its function was to maintain a peace, not to dominate another nation or keep them subservient. Germany invaded France three times in 70 years. Germany was a militant state and an active aggressor. If he wasn't, then he may well not have been the 'enemy' to keep the balance.

Dumbing down society then Booom.. Look up Sheikh Nurjan mirhamdi

Don't the riots remind you of a poorly executed krystalnacht or what?

How are we near? What nation is currently planning world domination and destruction of neighboring peoples?

Not prelude to war, but the vibes of Weimar Republic can be seen in the west

We are living through *nothing near* those times. The *stock market* is priced for a Biden/Harris victory- and is _still_ within 90% of it's all time high. The *worst events* of the last 6 mos. would be at most a *page three* story in most newspapers if it wasn't an election year.

Such a cowardly nation today can't even leave the house without a face cloth

@@ItzAdam03 lol 12 months on and they’re back

4sure... Between Netflix, a free movie app & RU-vid, I dont even have/miss cable tv!

These types of comments do make me laugh. Who even watches regular TV anymore, other than over 50's? Regular TV is stuck in the past in terms of production.. all that fake drama and silly "celebrity" stuff that just appeals to an audience of the past.

It out does anything I've ever seen by far. On any channel in any era. 90's even which is a quote I think I've said maybe for the first time in my life. 90's owns every title, except a very very very small few, this being one of them. This channel is simply, and I mean so awestrikingly "THE BEST!!!!!!!!"

Spain is quite strangely disconnected during that time with its internal struggle, yet also a "training ground" for fighters

Overpopulation is no longer a problem outside of Africa and the Muslim Middle East.

@Steve Duke 😅😂😅😞

The attack on Poland started after the Germans dressed as poles and made attacks on Germany, as a justification to attack Poland. The poles actually held their military quite distant from the border so to not appear aggressive towards Germany (which was also beneficial for Germany when they attacked because the polish military couldn't immediately defend)

@@tomlxyz Wrong, Poland declared war on Germany on the 31st, and Germany invaded the next day. Poland, assured of victory by the British and French promises to come help became arrogant and suddenly refused to negotiate with the Germans after keeping them on the line for five years. Then the Poles started to kill ethnic Germans, 58K of them missing by the time Germany invaded, the Gleiwitz incident probably never happened.

It's VERY expensive to prepare for a war. Especially when you are not certain that it will happen. And, especially, when you are an island protected by the world's largest navy and have no need to 'prepare for war' until a war has begun. You don't just spend countless billions preparing for something that might not happen when you don't need to. We were already defended, and we knew that we could build up an attack over-time.

He was a radical racist. They’re goal is always the same in the south. Return of Jim Crow, and to use blacks as slaves or cheap labour. And also as a scapegoat/distraction for the hatred of the whites who are losers in the system who feel a narcissistic/entitelment for supremesy based on genetics not merits or human rights

Right! The easiest method would be to drop the music volume during speech. It might be too much to ask for a score built specifically for the doc.

that doesn't make sense, the gold standard was a terrible and outdated system. The subsequent obstinacy of the US to limit how much money they spend on the New Deal directly led to the WW2. They wanted to keep gov spending as low as possible, so while the new deal proved a solution it was not good enough. 10 years later, the US would spend 5x more for the war. If the US spent the money it did in the war on the New Deal, depression in Germany/across EU would have been alleviated, and very likely, WW2 would have been mitigated or averted entirely.

They would've obviously invaded England anyway Dolphus

Speak softly and carry a big stick. Never forget to make the stick.

WW2 ended the depression in America. The US and Canada were the only two countries that came out of the war in better shape than going into the war.

I’ll take the one that saved my country, lmao.

We switched leaders timeously but the Versailles treaty is the real culprit, how can a nation live with its life sapped out of it?.

The French should have been grateful to the Canadians, British and the US for liberating their cowardly country.

@@Petal4822 The French suffered, their cities bombed, they never wanted another WW1 fought on their soil. We British were somewhat protected by the English Chanel or we'd have faced the wrath of the Nazis. France lost more people to allied bombs than Britain did to German bombing.
