I was in Berlin last year. Before the war, Berlin was a splendid city with countless buildings full of character. At the time, Berlin was one of the largest cities in the world with 4.5 million inhabitants. (Incidentally, this figure has never been matched; currently 3.8 million people live in the city). You probably also walked around the area around Alexanderplatz, the TV tower and the rebuilt palace. At Alex there were some splendid department stores, behind Alexanderplatz station up to the city palace was Berlin's old town with many alleys and squares, everything was destroyed in the war and not rebuilt, instead the communists created this boring, huge square. Or look at old photos of Belle Alliance Platz, a place where people liked to live back then. Today it's still a round square with generic blocks that has become one of the worst crime hotspots in the city. You could say that Berlin was not only totally destroyed in the war, it also lost its soul forever.
The mistake was the 1936 Olympic Games in Berlin. That’s when the world was able to see how modern clean, orderly and technologically advanced a people and their capital city could become when the government evicted the international banksters. For that reason, all of Germany had to be thoroughly destroyed and turned to dust. They did a pretty good job as well. After the cities were turned to dust, it was time to read the Earth of the German people, starting with the men in the armed forces. Which whom surrendered peacefully to the British and Americans. Of course, both of those countries agreed to the terms of the 1928 Geneva convention, granting surrendered prisoners basic needs to sustain life, such as food, water, basic, cleanliness, and shelter. Eisenhower and his minion-demon Henry Morgenthau, had other plans for these men. Instead of remaining POW’s, protected by Geneva and the agreement of basic human rights, they were re-categorized as DEF’s, (disarmed enemy forces). If you did not “call “them prisoners of war, you did not have to uphold basic human dignity agreed-upon in the Geneva convention. Research the “Rhineland death camps”. And someone please explain how and why almost 2,000,000 surrendered German prisoners of war, or DEF’s, DIED the year. FOLLOWING Germany’s unconditional surrender?! Yes almost 2,000,000 men were starved to death between May 1945 and June 1946. The Allies were NOT the good guys. Far, far from it in fact.
I think this true for all the old cities and town ad buildings destroyed in this war;- think of Rotterdam , Dresden , Monte Cassino ......; you can rebuild a building from its blueprint , but can you restore its soul?
I think Hitler proved in the first world war that he had "the personal courage" to fight himself, given his bravery medals, His reason for not fighting in the last days was he did not want to be humiliated in the way that Mussolini was after capture therefor preserving his mythos.
Idk about all because of one man,a large share of the blame has to go to Stalin,he provided a lot of raw materials and grain etc to Germany on “credit” knowing Germany was going to attack Poland and hopefully the west and get bogged down in France or something similar to the Great War and then Stalin could come swooping in and bolshevize most,if not all of Europe, but only some of that happened,but yeah,if not for Stalin being terrified of Hitler,the Second World War might have started in the mid to late 40’s
And yet the events of recent times tell us that this analogy is not true. The masses had a hand in it and everyone just felt comfortable pointing the finger at “a” monster than at the monsters. These monsters hid and not anymore.
Actually, Hitler had not lost all grip on the military realities which faced Germany, that is what most people misunderstood - Rather he was dead-set on making a dramatic final showdown, a defiance to the end, continuing issuing military orders to keep on fighting, and himself stayed in the capitol Berlin like a captain on a sinking ship, when in reality he could have escaped to places like Prague or Central Europe to maybe buy a few more week of time, but he already knew it was the end, and he willingly choose to end this like a frontline soldier under artillery barrage rather than in exile in some foreign land's mountains.
Absolute brilliant documentary 👍
great production guys
Tremendous footage! This is probably the best documentary I saw about the end of the Third Reich.

Немцам и Гитлеру надо было дома сидеть. И душа Берлина осталась бы на месте!!!

Even if Hitler wanted to fight at the end, how effective of a fighter would an out of shape, drug addled, Parkinsons patient in his 50s have been? 😅
Superb documentary 👍
Such a terrible loss of life , on both sides , and all this because of one man !!
1 man that International Finance could not control.
Stalin.

It was an informative historical coverage documentary about Berlin Battle in 1945
The “weird” blurry graphics gave me a headache
These "context" panels are very annoying. There should be an option to close them, or turn them off.

You should do a show about the Werewolves. Stay behind SS saboteurs and assassins who fought the Allies for another year after the war
And another show about Operation Gladius and its repercussions on modern day european politics. But noone dares.
@datadavis Gladio, and there are plenty of docs about it.
How can you betray your kin in this way how sick
❤😂🎉😢😮😅😊 0:45
This video was made before Nusbacher decided he wanted to become a woman…. so creepy
You still believe he died in the Fuhrerbunker? 😂😂😂😂😂
He got away and died in Argentina.
