The nazis had one of the best military leaders of the century and they killed him off because he wasn't nazi enough for them. The Desert Fox will be remembered.
@Pouleterie bloody right! I just saw them too! I was a littel disapointed that people didn't pit more during when they played. but they sure as hell put on an awsome show!
@emp567 If I read the lyrics Right the Panzer is actually the Germans in WWII and the blitzkrieg is the term that nazis used in order to take over lands.
Forgot to mention before... What about the sherman Firefly? Its 17 pdr could fucking spank a tiger no problem. It wasn't as numerous albeit, but the Jerries actually instructed their panzers to aim for Fireflies first because they were afraid of their guns XD
@IvanBeSerious Lol, i love how 1 person becomes a leader of a broken country, and turns it into the first super power in the 20th sentry. 70 Years later some kind (who clearly doesnt know much history) is hiding behind a monitor calling him a Moron.

I love Croats! Good people and culture! The last pure nation in Europe it is. Great family values and loyalty to your people you have. Did you know that genetically, Croats and Germans are related? I am an ethnic German born and living in the USA. I consider the Croats as my brothers and sisters. Salute!
Little Cupcake Yeah it will!!! It will actually be my second concert of metal, my first has not yet happened XD, we are also expecting Amon Amarth - another band - to come by December 3rd, this year will be awesome!
National TV i am honest, Amon Amarth isn't REALLY my taste of music but FUCK IT, i would still see them live if i get the chance because i know this band will fuck shit up! I am happy for you that you get the chance to see them live, wish you much fun at the concert ^^
overall, T34 is the best tank... The Tiger i needed to much material and time to be made, most lost Tigers were due to technical problems. In combat, it is superior but for one Tiger oyu can built probaly 4 T34 or 2 panthers, 2 panthers is by far better choice since panter is better protected and its cannon 75mm is not to be underestimated. T34 85 can break Tigers armour pretty well, its easy to made, fast reliable and doesnt need that much material or time.
I like how they made a really creative tribute to Rommel, commander of the assault tanks ghost division. They were an elite team during Hitler's reign and were a fearsome force. Nobody knew where they are on the battlefield. Not even Hitler himself.
"Best soliders" You can not gegeralise all soliders, i see your a nazi, we all know what your numbers mean but beside that, some german forces were very good and experienced and some were totaly ineffective and that goes to all in ww2.
I can understand what you mean, im finnish and i keep germans and finns as waffebrudern. i have not heard of cpt. raginis before, but i will research more of him. Have good day. :)
@Bognostrokulum Here's another one: A group of three WWII veterans (one american, one british and one russian) are all visiting France for a week to catch up on things from their service days and they're trying to check into a French hotel. None of them being able to speak French the manager at the desk scoffs them and says: "You stupid english speakers how do you call yourselves humans?" "The american soldier looks at his freinds and says: "Hey if it wasn't for us you'd be speaking german!"
The 7th Panzer Division moved with great speed through France and covered vast distances. During the Battle of France, the 7th Panzer Division earned the name of the Ghost Divison because its rapid movements lead to few knowing exactly where the Division was, including the German High Command. Rommel had a "lead from the front" attitude and often commanded from the turret of a tank, thus becoming a mere company commander, rather than a division commander issuing orders from his headquarters.
Hello metalheads, emo's, goths, scene, punks. Instead of a Metal rebellion i propose a new plan. 1. Don't bash other metal artists, we must unite! We cant fight against pop music if we arent even together 2. Watch more and more metal videos to get it to the top of the youtube vid list If you like this idea, thumbs it up JUST so people can see it, and also spread it around if you like this idea Copy this text in every Metalvideo you watch and we´re getting the power
@Tarishan inventions sure, they had some pretty neat kit. But again i dont think their solders were as good as the us ones... (Im british btw) I think when it cam down to it, the germans relied heavily on orders from officers where as the US troops and British troops were able to act on their own initiative and still come out top. Maybe thats wrong, but meh.
@TheBeehonker Very well said, Rommel was one of the few fine examples of German officers who were professional, Loved their Country, not the ideals that were forced on the country, and showing the world that the True original German heritage that came before them did not die out with the rise and fall of the nazis. -just my opinon on the matter.
@dethpig420 Actually, without the help of the Soviet Union Europe might still be speaking German today. It's only when Hitler started fighting the war on two fronts that Nazi Germany took on more than it could handle. Did you know that of the 60 to 80 million casualties in WWII approximately 24 million were Russian soldiers?
Charging the lines with a force of a furious storm Fast as the lightning phantom's swarm 200 miles at nightfall taken within a day Thus earning their name, earning their fame They are the Panzer Elite Born to compete Never retreat (Ghost Division) Living or dead Always ahead Fed by your dread
@atsuktuvas2 No. This song is about the 7th Wehrmacht Panzer Division. It was called Ghost or Phantom Division because commanders never new really new where they were at the time Rommel was commanding the division from the front-line.
@14darx88 yes from 20 german tanks getting just maybe 2 destroyed by a enemy and 15 destroeyed by germans self the germans lost only cuz they dont had much materials for the tanks and weps not enough oil,ammo etc
That is pretty much bullshit. Despite not being allied with Finland or Norway they both (but mainly Finland) recieved a shitload of supplies, and Sweden also took care of the finnish immigrants.
@Psycho908 Lol but this song is about the fury of German tanks during WW2 I believe...... So the Nazis are hating on Nazis now? XD Not saying all Germans were Nazis and I doubt any still are.
@Raz8X Sabaton tells history and shows respects for soldiers who died for a cause. I would rather listen to that than all the bullshit about teenage love and getting high mainstream musiscians sing about.
If you want to know what Joakim thinks about his fans, the new guys, mainstream media, being called Nazis, ORAL SEX IN THE BACKSTAGE and much more, watch the interview(s) on my channel. :)
@jak13333 Overpassed by you. Rofl yeah it was a nice tank for mass production,Sherman was the piece of shit tin can. It really looked like one if you watch it from an angle.
@14darx88 best tanks i agree. B est strategies? No. Best soilders? No. If they had the best tanks and strategies and soilders they would have won the war. :)
U instead of You, twice. And Ur, proper spelling makes it more believable that the person who wrote it cared and put time into writing it and making sure he/she was correct. Making spelling mistakes, typos or just using shorten versions of words (U, Ur for example) does make one look less intelligent, which is quite annoying if you have problems with spelling (dyslexia) cuase everyone thinks you're a moron. And I don't want no one thinking that anyone is a moron :(
My Great Uncle was in the original 6th Army was wounded, not mortally so and ended up surviving / escaping the war outside of Germany when the iron curtain went up and ended up migrating out to NZ all those years ago, he went back during the 80's to have a look around and ended up going on a tour bus through Russia and returned home to NZ safely :) Just an interesting lil story since many did not survive from the 6th
In a way you're right. Each country has its on unique combination of tribal elements which create, for want of a better word, a unique 'race'. Proto-Greeks for example who were carriers of the Greek language were northerners, of balto-teutonic stock, who migrated into Greece and mixed with the indigenous Aegean people the Pelasgians, the Minoans and the Neolithic peoples who migrated into Europe from the Fertile crescent. This unique combination created the Greek 'race' of today.
Actually the proto-Greeks (Dorians and Myceneans) came from the north and are no believed to belong to the Seima-Turbino culture whose homeland was east of the Baltic sea in the forests of the northern Russian steppes. They were the proto-Greek speakers who migrated into the Greek peninsula where they mixed with the indigenous Aegean and neolithic peoples of Greece, Minoans, Pelasgians etc. Ionian Greeks were technicaly Pelasgians. {See, 'The Baltic Origins of Homers mythic tales'}
Patton even wanted President Truman to give Eisenhower the order to re-arm the Wehrmacht and send them back to the Soviet Union together witht th US-army and the Royal army. But he ignored the fact that both, German soldiers and civilians were fed up with that war AND I also don't think that neither western Allies, nor Germans would have really liked to work together though they've shot each other the day before
Unfortunately he severely lacked strategic prowess, leading a Division was, quite frankly, the highest role he was suited for. his successes in the desert were mostly due to Allied ineptitude, not Axis superiority, this showed when he faced a half baked General, one B. Monty, who whooped his ass back to Tripoli in the Desert and owned his theorems in Normandy. Saying that Patton though he was good is no real accolade, Patton was decidedly average.
it's latinum but I like it becourse latin terminology is in all languge all kind off kommunikation can have a lingvistik system fore identifikation off what we saying By'e the way KIng Fredrick the great is Prussian King and lost he*s battle with Russia+ learned to front war against Russia is imposibly more ore less your line's will simply bee to tinn and you have big support prolem+logistik hope that help's

Germans lost Battle of Kursk because russians had 3000 tanks, germans had 1000, and russians had already been fortifying their lines for weeks, cos hitler wanted to have new panther tanks to the battle. 100 000 mines were palced by russians, and if you know the result of battle of britain, germans hadn't got almost any planes, russians had a lot. But in casualties, russians lost much more men and tanks than germans. learn it, before shouting it loud.
Rommel was a revolutionary general, and was respected by Patton and also the British, people still study his tactics to this day. If you wish to remain ignorant than do so, but do not hate something merely because it points out the tactical prowess of a man you dislike. "Those who do not Learn from the past, are doomed to repeat it." Rommel did not believe in the Nazi goals, he was but a mere man Fighting for his country, can you fault him for that..would you do any less for you own country.
@bjhellstream Wow, they make one song admiring a German general as what he was: a military genius and some shitheads are complaining why they didn't show him as bloodthirsty hardcore-Nazi (for the record: Rommel was a career General not a Political one. He was NEVER a member of the Nazi party). They've also written songs about D-Day, the Battle of Britain, the Battle of Berlin, Stalingrad, Polish soldiers fighting outnumbered by 40:1 against Germans. So don't come with Nazi-glorification!
@IvanBeSerious Why ... you actually looked like an intellectual individual who was still a bit young. I have a blank channel on you-tube and no friends? What? What does that have to do with anything. You-Tube channel determines how smart you are?I have read both Mein Kampf and The Communist Manifesto. So what? I never denied Hitler being a criminal or loosing Germany the war. But he was a great political and a leader.
@IvanBeSerious U have 5 books and got an A+? I hope ur joking? Because 5 books is next to nothing in terms of knowledge. In fact it sounds like you just made that up on the spot. As far as my information, i get it from dozens of books, and hundreds of articles written on certain battles and political movements. And yes, i have seen a Neo-Nazi meeting, along with a Communist one. Both are nothing like their originals.
@ocdelta Many people just accept others opinions, not doing research. If it said so on the main new on TV they watch, it must be so. I prefer the old way, looking things up to come to an educated decision. My TV is hardly ever on and when it is it's for on demand things and when my children and friends are stuck in due to the weather and they and I are to tired to do art/crafts and games or reading together. The odd film and to see where the disinfo is going to look things up is all.
You say Bruno Mars, I say Sabaton You say Hannah Montana, I say Guns N' Roses You say Owl City, I say Hunter You say Jonas Brothers, I say Queen You say Taylor Swift, I say AC/DC You say Ke$ha, I say Twisted Sister You say Justin Bieber, I say **** You.. 95% of teens these days listen to the same crappy pop over & over again. If you're one of the 5% who still listens to real music, thumb this up. Copy and paste to at least 5 other great songs! Don't let the spirit of rock die
@Miiitja Yugoslavia was also a strategic reason because it was suspected the English were meddling in their affairs. Russia? Well, Russia was planning on invading Germany anyways and many of their troops were caught in movement when the Blitzkrieg into Russia began (one of the reasons Germany did so well to begin with). If Germany didn't invade Russia when they did, then Russia probably would have taken all of Europe. People should be thanking the Germans for invading Russia first.
@Miiitja You must remember that the French declared war on Germany with the English. Since the Maginot line was pretty much impenetrable, the Germans went through Belgium and the Netherlands to get around the line and quickly conquer France. Worked quite well. Denmark was taken for strategic reasons. Norway was also taken for strategic reasons. Funny thing is. The English also had plans of taking Norway, but Germany beat them to the punch.
@Miiitja Where have you learned your history. I have an idea. Get a map of 1914 and look at Germany at the start of WWI. Then look up where the location of Danzig is. Why did the Germans invade those other places? Well, for one, you need to again relearn your history because Germany didn't invade Romania. Romania was allied with the Germans for most of the war and therefore never invaded. As for the other nations, why wouldn't they invade them?
@JoeRingo118 Also the reason we Did drop the bomb is because of the fact that the casualties were to get high, calculated the resent battles they had with them on the islands, It would have been bad for both sides. And , not to mention only a few would nuke USA. North korea included. Also the Cold war wasn't until around the 1950's-1970's This "Cold war" wasn't casualty related it was who built the best bomb, and not only that USA to supply starving Russain civys which russia hated.
@JoeRingo118 WWII is the reason Germany doesn't have a single atom bomb let alone a military force. USA made germany(along with other countrys) to sign a paper stating that their military force can't be over a certain limit. If they made a restriction on military what makes you think they will have nukular warfare? Also The only person USA ever Atom bombed was Japan because of the calculations of the casulaties made by officails. America didn't even want to drop the atomic bomb but they did.
@JoeRingo118 The cold war came after WWII, and correction USA never used a nuke on anyone, we used a atomic bomb, and Germany Never had a nuke or atomic bombs. in WWII the Nukular bombs werent inventend until around the cold war. Also to prove you are wrong on your very statement, Albert Einstein Invented the first Atomic bomb for USA no other country he orginated from germany which wanted him to make a atomic bomb which he never did. The reason Germany doesn't have a single nuke or Atom bomb.
@JoeRingo118 Look at it this way, Someone would be more glad to have won a war, they to have lost it... And lets say for a moment that Someone who attacks another person, wins against the defendant, but over time the defendant pushes the pursuer back and turns the battle and begins to win, and if you think of it, they (pursuer) could retreat from the country, and nuke the defendant just so they can win... Not only that if the defendant has nothing, within about 5 years the pursuer can take over.
@14darx88 False. This is in fact Nazi propaganda. Tiger was an OK for 1943 but by the time IS series tanks hit the field it wasnt looking good for them. Not to mention the logistic nightmare all german tanks were. Did I mention the germans failed to get a proper diesel engine and were stuck with Fritz-cooker gasoline ones? Or the fact they couldnt make decent steel by the end of war?
@14darx88 I think thats why the German tanks were moving with 30 - 40 kmh and their engines stopped working when the temperature was below 0 degrees.They based on HEAVY fukcing tanks, with SO GOD DARN MUCH metal in it,which maked them very heavy and, in some cases, useless.T - 34 was very light,and could outmaneuver almost every German tank.About the strategies and training i agree,though.Germans were sending true soldiers on the battlefield.Not speaking a word about the Americans cuz they suck.
@14darx88 Thats just partly true. Shermans and T-34s could and did destroyed lot of Tigers, though only from side/rear or from VERY close distance. They usualy outnumbered them 1 to 5 and lost 4 in the process until the last get into position to destroy it. What matters is that germans produced rougly 1.5k tigers in the war, but russians poped out more in a single month. Only latewar IS-1 and Pershing were on par with tiges, only IS-2 was better BTW: Königstiger is the prettiest tank of war
I don't think we have to dwell on the anti - Nazi elements of Sabaton - most people are anti -Nazi anyway , however I do have great admiration for the abilities of the german panzer corps during the second world war - regardless of their motivations the Waffen SS panzer corps were one of the most effective fighting forces in history - and proved it time and time again - particularly when they were being forced out of Russia after the Battle of Kursk - the Waffen SS held the line despite...
@stefundertaker222 The word "occupation" could mean some activity that you practice. It also has a military meaning, like an agressor occupying a foreign country. And since the main character was a German veteran who has already participated in tthe German occupation of France, when asked "occupationn" , he assumed that the french guy asked him if he has plans to occupy France once more and the German veteran was quick to calm him down, telling him that this time he was just visiting :-)
@4JRimmer This song is about the 7th Panzer Division under the Command of Erwin Rommel during the blitz, not the 21st which was part of the DAK, which was under the command of Rommel as well. The 7th was named the "Ghost Division" because they moved so fast that no one in the German High Command knew exactly where they were. Rommel was a great general, and commanded some of the best units in the Heer.
@Pan0sTheGreek There are people here in Germany calling the Greeks lazy and unwilling to work, but I know that this isn't right. I several greek friends and have been to Greece. Well okay, we germans work harder and longer in the jobs we've got, but the greeks often work in severeal jobs. So I think there ist really no problem in helping you out of this economicl crisis, because your are our EU-brothers. And give a shit of those german politicians who want you out of the Schengen-Contract...
@irrationalxv Yes of course we haven't payed the atrocities of WW2, but we we alway helped our european and non-european brothers in the after-war-time. Germany gave the most money to the helping- and rescue-actions of the EU. And this is what makes me so angry, if somebody says that it is OUR fault. Of course WW2 was Germany's fault, but not mine and not the fault of any German living today. The fact is that we payed enough, even if it is not directly for the atrocities....
No, Romel was betrayed by his superior
The Desert Fox forever will be the supreme commander
The nazis had one of the best military leaders of the century and they killed him off because he wasn't nazi enough for them. The Desert Fox will be remembered.
Athar terion No, he was plenty nazi, he wasn't that much into letting them know about the july 20th plot
*UBER KRIEG*
Best way to learn history with style
I work out, eat, sleep, read, study, text, talk, poop, live and breath to Sabaton
sabaton, que buena banda esta. METAL.CRUE.GHOST.DIVISION A MI GUSTO SUS MEJORES ROLAS SALUDOS A TODOS LOS METALEROS
grymt lirat igår på ullevi! skit bra!
@Pouleterie bloody right! I just saw them too!
I was a littel disapointed that people didn't pit more during when they played.
but they sure as hell put on an awsome show!
@emp567 If I read the lyrics Right the Panzer is actually the Germans in WWII and the blitzkrieg is the term that nazis used in order to take over lands.
1:02 starts best part of the whole song , but this song is just epic
why haven't I ever listened to Sabaton before? Fucking awesome
Forgot to mention before... What about the sherman Firefly? Its 17 pdr could fucking spank a tiger no problem. It wasn't as numerous albeit, but the Jerries actually instructed their panzers to aim for Fireflies first because they were afraid of their guns XD
I wish i could marry music :( lol Great song amazing band
SO GOOD! :DDDDDDDDDDD
You do research on Rommel, and you can also see why he is also a hero :)
das ist sehr gut!!!!
@IvanBeSerious Lol, i love how 1 person becomes a leader of a broken country, and turns it into the first super power in the 20th sentry. 70 Years later some kind (who clearly doesnt know much history) is hiding behind a monitor calling him a Moron.
Jesus fucking christ, why does every Sabaton video turn into a historical debate?

domenik lentge Dank diesem Lied, meine neue lieblings Band!
so amazing - just saw them live amazing amazing
overall, T34 is the best tank...
The Tiger i needed to much material and time to be made, most lost Tigers were due to technical problems. In combat, it is superior but for one Tiger oyu can built probaly 4 T34 or 2 panthers, 2 panthers is by far better choice since panter is better protected and its cannon 75mm is not to be underestimated.
T34 85 can break Tigers armour pretty well, its easy to made, fast reliable and doesnt need that much material or time.
I like how they made a really creative tribute to Rommel, commander of the assault tanks ghost division. They were an elite team during Hitler's reign and were a fearsome force. Nobody knew where they are on the battlefield. Not even Hitler himself.
"Best soliders" You can not gegeralise all soliders, i see your a nazi, we all know what your numbers mean but beside that, some german forces were very good and experienced and some were totaly ineffective and that goes to all in ww2.
I'm more of a hardcore fan, but fuck that. SABATON IS WAY MORE EPICCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC
I can understand what you mean, im finnish and i keep germans and finns as waffebrudern. i have not heard of cpt. raginis before, but i will research more of him. Have good day. :)
Nice 3 minutes of silence.
@TheDirkiepie what?????? rommel was a german general and he could win the war for the ussr were do you get this shit and what do you mean ?
What type of guitar Sabaton use? Please answer mee :D
Saw them yesterday on Rockstad Falun - Sweden. Totally worth it. You should see them if you get the chance!
@denvitaranden i used to say i took an arrow in the knee but then someone stole my sweetroll
@Bognostrokulum Here's another one:
A group of three WWII veterans (one american, one british and one russian) are all visiting France for a week to catch up on things from their service days and they're trying to check into a French hotel. None of them being able to speak French the manager at the desk scoffs them and says: "You stupid english speakers how do you call yourselves humans?" "The american soldier looks at his freinds and says: "Hey if it wasn't for us you'd be speaking german!"
The 7th Panzer Division moved with great speed through France and covered vast distances.

Hello metalheads, emo's, goths, scene, punks.
Instead of a Metal rebellion i propose a new plan.
1. Don't bash other metal artists, we must unite! We cant fight against pop music if we arent even together
2. Watch more and more metal videos to get it to the top of the youtube vid list
If you like this idea, thumbs it up JUST so people can see it, and also spread it around if you like this idea
Copy this text in every Metalvideo you watch and we´re getting the power
@Tarishan inventions sure, they had some pretty neat kit. But again i dont think their solders were as good as the us ones... (Im british btw) I think when it cam down to it, the germans relied heavily on orders from officers where as the US troops and British troops were able to act on their own initiative and still come out top. Maybe thats wrong, but meh.
@TheBeehonker Very well said, Rommel was one of the few fine examples of German officers who were professional, Loved their Country, not the ideals that were forced on the country, and showing the world that the True original German heritage that came before them did not die out with the rise and fall of the nazis. -just my opinon on the matter.
@dethpig420 Actually, without the help of the Soviet Union Europe might still be speaking German today. It's only when Hitler started fighting the war on two fronts that Nazi Germany took on more than it could handle. Did you know that of the 60 to 80 million casualties in WWII approximately 24 million were Russian soldiers?
Charging the lines with a force of a furious storm
Fast as the lightning phantom's swarm
200 miles at nightfall taken within a day
Thus earning their name, earning their fame
They are the Panzer Elite
Born to compete
Never retreat
(Ghost Division)
Living or dead
Always ahead
Fed by your dread
@atsuktuvas2
No. This song is about the 7th Wehrmacht Panzer Division. It was called Ghost or Phantom Division because commanders never new really new where they were at the time Rommel was commanding the division from the front-line.
@14darx88 yes from 20 german tanks getting just maybe 2 destroyed by a enemy and 15 destroeyed by germans self the germans lost only cuz they dont had much materials for the tanks and weps not enough oil,ammo etc
That is pretty much bullshit. Despite not being allied with Finland or Norway they both (but mainly Finland) recieved a shitload of supplies, and Sweden also took care of the finnish immigrants.
@Psycho908 Lol but this song is about the fury of German tanks during WW2 I believe...... So the Nazis are hating on Nazis now? XD
Not saying all Germans were Nazis and I doubt any still are.
@Raz8X Sabaton tells history and shows respects for soldiers who died for a cause. I would rather listen to that than all the bullshit about teenage love and getting high mainstream musiscians sing about.
If you want to know what Joakim thinks about his fans, the new guys, mainstream media, being called Nazis, ORAL SEX IN THE BACKSTAGE and much more, watch the interview(s) on my channel. :)
@jak13333 Overpassed by you.
Rofl yeah it was a nice tank for mass production,Sherman was the piece of shit tin can.
It really looked like one if you watch it from an angle.
@14darx88 best tanks i agree. B
est strategies? No. Best soilders? No.
If they had the best tanks and strategies and soilders they would have won the war. :)
@denvitaranden meh your comment has been seen many many times, became boring and uninteresting, unoriginal, boring, and so on, make your own stuff.
@lynx233 How about if was a German Veteran visiting Russia?

U instead of You, twice. And Ur, proper spelling makes it more believable that the person who wrote it cared and put time into writing it and making sure he/she was correct. Making spelling mistakes, typos or just using shorten versions of words (U, Ur for example) does make one look less intelligent, which is quite annoying if you have problems with spelling (dyslexia) cuase everyone thinks you're a moron. And I don't want no one thinking that anyone is a moron :(
My Great Uncle was in the original 6th Army was wounded, not mortally so and ended up surviving / escaping the war outside of Germany when the iron curtain went up and ended up migrating out to NZ all those years ago, he went back during the 80's to have a look around and ended up going on a tour bus through Russia and returned home to NZ safely :) Just an interesting lil story since many did not survive from the 6th
In a way you're right.
Each country has its on unique combination
of tribal elements which create, for want of a
better word, a unique 'race'.
Proto-Greeks for example who were carriers
of the Greek language were northerners, of
balto-teutonic stock, who migrated into Greece
and mixed with the indigenous Aegean people
the Pelasgians, the Minoans and the Neolithic
peoples who migrated into Europe from the
Fertile crescent. This unique combination
created the Greek 'race' of today.
Actually the proto-Greeks (Dorians and Myceneans)
came from the north and are no believed to belong
to the Seima-Turbino culture whose homeland
was east of the Baltic sea in the forests
of the northern Russian steppes. They were the
proto-Greek speakers who migrated into the Greek peninsula
where they mixed with the indigenous Aegean and
neolithic peoples of Greece, Minoans, Pelasgians etc.
Ionian Greeks were technicaly Pelasgians.
{See, 'The Baltic Origins of Homers mythic tales'}
Patton even wanted President Truman to give Eisenhower the order to re-arm the Wehrmacht and send them back to the Soviet Union together witht th US-army and the Royal army. But he ignored the fact that both, German soldiers and civilians were fed up with that war AND I also don't think that neither western Allies, nor Germans would have really liked to work together though they've shot each other the day before
Unfortunately he severely lacked strategic prowess, leading a Division was, quite frankly, the highest role he was suited for. his successes in the desert were mostly due to Allied ineptitude, not Axis superiority, this showed when he faced a half baked General, one B. Monty, who whooped his ass back to Tripoli in the Desert and owned his theorems in Normandy.
Saying that Patton though he was good is no real accolade, Patton was decidedly average.

Germans lost Battle of Kursk because russians had 3000 tanks, germans had 1000, and russians had already been fortifying their lines for weeks, cos hitler wanted to have new panther tanks to the battle. 100 000 mines were palced by russians, and if you know the result of battle of britain, germans hadn't got almost any planes, russians had a lot. But in casualties, russians lost much more men and tanks than germans. learn it, before shouting it loud.
Rommel was a revolutionary general, and was respected by Patton and also the British, people still study his tactics to this day. If you wish to remain ignorant than do so, but do not hate something merely because it points out the tactical prowess of a man you dislike.
"Those who do not Learn from the past, are doomed to repeat it."
Rommel did not believe in the Nazi goals, he was but a mere man Fighting for his country, can you fault him for that..would you do any less for you own country.
@bjhellstream Wow, they make one song admiring a German general as what he was: a military genius and some shitheads are complaining why they didn't show him as bloodthirsty hardcore-Nazi (for the record: Rommel was a career General not a Political one. He was NEVER a member of the Nazi party). They've also written songs about D-Day, the Battle of Britain, the Battle of Berlin, Stalingrad, Polish soldiers fighting outnumbered by 40:1 against Germans. So don't come with Nazi-glorification!
@IvanBeSerious Why ... you actually looked like an intellectual individual who was still a bit young.
I have a blank channel on you-tube and no friends? What? What does that have to do with anything. You-Tube channel determines how smart you are?I have read both Mein Kampf and The Communist Manifesto. So what?
I never denied Hitler being a criminal or loosing Germany the war. But he was a great political and a leader.
@IvanBeSerious U have 5 books and got an A+? I hope ur joking? Because 5 books is next to nothing in terms of knowledge. In fact it sounds like you just made that up on the spot.
As far as my information, i get it from dozens of books, and hundreds of articles written on certain battles and political movements.
And yes, i have seen a Neo-Nazi meeting, along with a Communist one. Both are nothing like their originals.
@ocdelta Many people just accept others opinions, not doing research. If it said so on the main new on TV they watch, it must be so. I prefer the old way, looking things up to come to an educated decision. My TV is hardly ever on and when it is it's for on demand things and when my children and friends are stuck in due to the weather and they and I are to tired to do art/crafts and games or reading together. The odd film and to see where the disinfo is going to look things up is all.
You say Bruno Mars, I say Sabaton
You say Hannah Montana, I say Guns N' Roses
You say Owl City, I say Hunter

95% of teens these days listen to the same crappy pop over & over again. If you're one of the 5% who still listens to real music, thumb this up. Copy and paste to at least 5 other great songs! Don't let the spirit of rock die
@Miiitja Yugoslavia was also a strategic reason because it was suspected the English were meddling in their affairs. Russia? Well, Russia was planning on invading Germany anyways and many of their troops were caught in movement when the Blitzkrieg into Russia began (one of the reasons Germany did so well to begin with). If Germany didn't invade Russia when they did, then Russia probably would have taken all of Europe. People should be thanking the Germans for invading Russia first.
@Miiitja You must remember that the French declared war on Germany with the English. Since the Maginot line was pretty much impenetrable, the Germans went through Belgium and the Netherlands to get around the line and quickly conquer France. Worked quite well. Denmark was taken for strategic reasons. Norway was also taken for strategic reasons. Funny thing is. The English also had plans of taking Norway, but Germany beat them to the punch.
@Miiitja Where have you learned your history. I have an idea. Get a map of 1914 and look at Germany at the start of WWI. Then look up where the location of Danzig is.
Why did the Germans invade those other places? Well, for one, you need to again relearn your history because Germany didn't invade Romania. Romania was allied with the Germans for most of the war and therefore never invaded.
As for the other nations, why wouldn't they invade them?
@JoeRingo118 Also the reason we Did drop the bomb is because of the fact that the casualties were to get high, calculated the resent battles they had with them on the islands, It would have been bad for both sides. And , not to mention only a few would nuke USA. North korea included. Also the Cold war wasn't until around the 1950's-1970's This "Cold war" wasn't casualty related it was who built the best bomb, and not only that USA to supply starving Russain civys which russia hated.
@JoeRingo118 WWII is the reason Germany doesn't have a single atom bomb let alone a military force. USA made germany(along with other countrys) to sign a paper stating that their military force can't be over a certain limit. If they made a restriction on military what makes you think they will have nukular warfare? Also The only person USA ever Atom bombed was Japan because of the calculations of the casulaties made by officails. America didn't even want to drop the atomic bomb but they did.
@JoeRingo118 The cold war came after WWII, and correction USA never used a nuke on anyone, we used a atomic bomb, and Germany Never had a nuke or atomic bombs. in WWII the Nukular bombs werent inventend until around the cold war. Also to prove you are wrong on your very statement, Albert Einstein Invented the first Atomic bomb for USA no other country he orginated from germany which wanted him to make a atomic bomb which he never did. The reason Germany doesn't have a single nuke or Atom bomb.
@JoeRingo118 Look at it this way, Someone would be more glad to have won a war, they to have lost it... And lets say for a moment that Someone who attacks another person, wins against the defendant, but over time the defendant pushes the pursuer back and turns the battle and begins to win, and if you think of it, they (pursuer) could retreat from the country, and nuke the defendant just so they can win... Not only that if the defendant has nothing, within about 5 years the pursuer can take over.
@14darx88 False. This is in fact Nazi propaganda. Tiger was an OK for 1943 but by the time IS series tanks hit the field it wasnt looking good for them. Not to mention the logistic nightmare all german tanks were. Did I mention the germans failed to get a proper diesel engine and were stuck with Fritz-cooker gasoline ones? Or the fact they couldnt make decent steel by the end of war?
@14darx88 I think thats why the German tanks were moving with 30 - 40 kmh and their engines stopped working when the temperature was below 0 degrees.They based on HEAVY fukcing tanks, with SO GOD DARN MUCH metal in it,which maked them very heavy and, in some cases, useless.T - 34 was very light,and could outmaneuver almost every German tank.About the strategies and training i agree,though.Germans were sending true soldiers on the battlefield.Not speaking a word about the Americans cuz they suck.
@14darx88
Thats just partly true. Shermans and T-34s could and did destroyed lot of Tigers, though only from side/rear or from VERY close distance. They usualy outnumbered them 1 to 5 and lost 4 in the process until the last get into position to destroy it. What matters is that germans produced rougly 1.5k tigers in the war, but russians poped out more in a single month. Only latewar IS-1 and Pershing were on par with tiges, only IS-2 was better
BTW: Königstiger is the prettiest tank of war
I don't think we have to dwell on the anti - Nazi elements of Sabaton - most people are anti -Nazi anyway , however I do have great admiration for the abilities of the german panzer corps during the second world war - regardless of their motivations the Waffen SS panzer corps were one of the most effective fighting forces in history - and proved it time and time again - particularly when they were being forced out of Russia after the Battle of Kursk - the Waffen SS held the line despite...
@stefundertaker222 The word "occupation" could mean some activity that you practice. It also has a military meaning, like an agressor occupying a foreign country. And since the main character was a German veteran who has already participated in tthe German occupation of France, when asked "occupationn" , he assumed that the french guy asked him if he has plans to occupy France once more and the German veteran was quick to calm him down, telling him that this time he was just visiting :-)
@4JRimmer This song is about the 7th Panzer Division under the Command of Erwin Rommel during the blitz, not the 21st which was part of the DAK, which was under the command of Rommel as well. The 7th was named the "Ghost Division" because they moved so fast that no one in the German High Command knew exactly where they were. Rommel was a great general, and commanded some of the best units in the Heer.
@Pan0sTheGreek
There are people here in Germany calling the Greeks lazy and unwilling to work, but I know that this isn't right. I several greek friends and have been to Greece. Well okay, we germans work harder and longer in the jobs we've got, but the greeks often work in severeal jobs. So I think there ist really no problem in helping you out of this economicl crisis, because your are our EU-brothers. And give a shit of those german politicians who want you out of the Schengen-Contract...
@irrationalxv
Yes of course we haven't payed the atrocities of WW2, but we we alway helped our european and non-european brothers in the after-war-time. Germany gave the most money to the helping- and rescue-actions of the EU. And this is what makes me so angry, if somebody says that it is OUR fault. Of course WW2 was Germany's fault, but not mine and not the fault of any German living today. The fact is that we payed enough, even if it is not directly for the atrocities....
