The organised minority will always beat the disorganised majority, (especially if they have guns, and you don't). Sad, but true. Part of human nature, and not a particularly good one.
Very one sided account of history. I can think of many things the US has done. How about the so called domino effect that lead to the Vietnam war and the false WMD's for starters that killed hundreds of thousands of innocent Iraqis.
That's true. I think the main factor that distinguishes the nazis was the extent to which they mechanized and industrialized their death machine. The planning and calculation for efficiency, the train systems, the gas chambers with connecting ramps to ovens, and the whole spreadsheet-like approach makes their deeds particularly disturbing.
Blood on Germany’s hands? Unequalled? Certainly you’ve never heard of Stalin’s USSR or Mao’s China. Pol Pot - there was a gem. It seems like murdering is in the human gene.

I agree that the Churchill strategy of bombing German cities, especially from mid-1943 through 1945 to the end of formal hostilities, wreaked unprecedented destruction on Germany. Naturally, I agree that this destruction of German infrastructure made Germany's stellar prior care for residents of the work camps impossible, resulting in hunger and inadequate medical provisions. These depredations of the Allies' bombing campaign created the conditions whereby typhus and other terrible diseases could, and did, flourish at intervals in camps, especially those which were located in Poland. These particular camps were hit so hard at times that they earned the dread title of "death camps." [One can see this problem of wholesale, maniacal bombing currently in Gaza, Levant, where death from the sky vies with death from diseases, greatly enhanced by lack of food and medicine.] The tragedy of unconditional surrender demanded by the Allies meant that any hope of a rational cessation of hostilities while negotiations were pursued would not take place. Winston Churchill, by then hopelessly alcoholic and incompetent by 5 PM, FDR, by then struggling with very serious health issues, and Joseph Stalin, the increasingly suspicious-minded dictator of the USSR, were a dread set of leaders for the Allies. Since Hitler was largely trying to cope as a sort of ragout of drugs provided by his personal doctor, he had lost any vision other than a grand tragic doom for Germany (barring a miracle). What a mess! It was very sad to see Germany, one of our last links to ten-tribe Israel (and the 200,000 of Judah), fall into such a situation. "Absolam! Absolam! How hath the mighty fallen!" From bondage to bondage, it is tolled.

Thus seeing 4 fine Empires retained going from strength to strength. Rather the demise leading to the present day... I doubt the outcome of July 4th in UK will do much to make it better. But fast forward to toad... Now The French ......German and Dutch seem to have ideas. One thing we can be sure of... Politicians will not heed the mistakes from history, sending the rest of us to oblivion.

The entire North American population did just as heinous decimation of the original people who were here generations before European races emigrated. Ethnic cleansing isn’t just a few Europeans butchering the rightful population. We’re all guilty in some way! We just think we’re better, but we’re fooling ourselves! 🇨🇦🖖🏻🇨🇦
@@dougcook4769 True, but that was a normal cultural behaviour.

This is what Russia has done in Ukraine and what they want to do in NATO countries. When trump removes American troops from Europe Russia WILL be attacking NATO cy
I noticed you have a Hungarian name. In the summer of 1944, the nazis exterminated about 400,000 Hungarians. You might want to look that up and read about it.

Monsters do exist. They are us.
Ecclesiastes 9:3B
There's an Orange monster poised to regain the US Presidency. My conscience is clear. I voted for sanity and democracy.
Yes we are depraved Romans 3 and we all need a saviour, Jesus Christ.
No they are Germans
Pure evil
You're lucky that you wasn't a German in them days. If asked to you would have very likely taken part in the atrocities.
Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it...
Those that Know history are doomed to repeat it....
What's most appalling is world leaders watched the preparation for years and waited until it was too late.
History is repeating itself.
"...civilians and people..."?
I still don’t understand why they didn’t fight back. Nothing to lose.
The organised minority will always beat the disorganised majority, (especially if they have guns, and you don't). Sad, but true. Part of human nature, and not a particularly good one.
How to resist surrounded by gunmen, often naked and in shock. Some did but the killers knew no bounds and shot anyone resisting immediately. 😢
Agree but must have been hard to consider because that was certain death as opposed to hope, I guess 😢
That’s what happens when your government takes away your way to fight back. Like your GUNS!!!!
Hitler had disarmed the German public years earlier. Can’t allow that here in America.
Germany was horrible back then. Russia and China were too. Germany changed, but Russia and China are still at it.
Yanks and poms weren't bad at it either

The regular army- the Wehrmacht--did about 50% of the mass killings. In 2001 there was an exhibition about that in Hamburg.
Laughable atrocity propaganda all written and funded by the chosen ones no doubt.
There was also the exposition titled Größte Härte: Verbrechen der Wehrmacht in Polen September/Oktober 1939

Japan was brutal
Bataan
What about "the foibas" perpetrated by Josip Brotz Tito the Yugoslavian dictator.
How did so many turn to killing and it seems it was so easy. Unbelievable.
Too bad they don't talk about the ones America committed.
Civilians and people? Same thing perhaps?
Every video is the most brutal. Change the record dude. Oh and they were MURDERED - NOT EXECUTED!!!!
Ai voice generators are great tools
I like these videos but mate, expand your vocabulary. Stop using the word "brutal". The repetition is so off-putting
For what?
most brutal? not even close. just plain ole fast murderous ways
Is what's happening in Gaza today any different??
Colonists have committed similar abhorrent acts throughout history.
Innocent civilians and people?
