what exactly makes him a "nazi"
the fact he was drafted into the german army during ww2?
if you think that makes oyu a nazi you should go back into the hole you came from since you got no clue about ww2
The fact that this man was recognized for his militarily theories is wild
i mean he still came up with them tho?

what do you think the current US army handbook is still based on?
yea thats right a shit ton and i mean,A SHIT TON of german ww2 tactics

Doubt if his name is Müller. He is not a noble.
This dude could unironically be a Metal Gear villain.
I am a native german speaker and after watching the interview it seems like he is just trying to find reasons to be allowed to apply his craft.
He does not seem to really believe in the western ideals as he proclaims. As others may find their calling in the arts or sciences he seems to have found it in killing, death and war theories. Taking human lives is to him what applying paint to a canvas may be for others.
He certainly is far to eloquent to have lost his mind. Which is far more terrifying than a murderous madman when you think about it.
Dangerous men will always exist. Best to have them on side than to risk them using their skillset elsewhere
Lifelong soldiers need a home, and that home is a battlefield.
I kill trees for a living. I hate it. I'm pretty good at it. I would rather do something else, but it's about all I have to live for; the risk and challenge, the close proximity to what will most likely be the cause of my demise. It's a slow dance with death.
He certainly wasn't a member of a Prussian noble family. His father was an officer in the military but "Müller" is the least noble but most common name in Germany.
Yea, it's a peasant name. It means Miller.
And he never said, that his family was a noble one.

@@tavish4699Thanks for the response
@@baneofbanes
They didn't say anything about that, though.
I read a book years ago, I think it was "Someone Else's War" by Anthony Rogers; anyways, it had a section on Hoare and his operation in Congo and it noted that Müller was dismissed from service owing to his command style and how he socialized with the soldiers, all of which ran counter to Hoare's British Army background and desire to run the force in that way.
The US chose Mullers way though
Mike Hoare dismissed Siegfried Mueller because his leadership style caused disunity and low morale amongst the men in his unit, 52 Commando. Mike Hoare put my father, Lt Ben Louw in charge and after that the unit functioned seamlessly. There is a detailed account of this in one of Mike Hoare's last books.
My uncle, Jimmy Calderhead (married to my mums sister), served with him under the command of Mad Mike War. My uncle flew Mics. Went MIA in the Congo. Was found in Spain living the high life. Died in South Africa recently being survived by his 4 kids, my cousins.
Dude Definitely lived a life.
To most Germans Kongo Müller is a rather likeable dude.
No he's not
to most? nah...
@@riesenbonobo7846 und das von einem Monkey Profil, wie kommt's 🤣?
"Most Germans" have no idea who Kongo Müller even was
You don’t even “know” 3 Germans so end your delusions
I didn`t really get the "psycho murderer" vibes described in this video. Maybe it gets lost in translation but in German he appeared to me to be a anticommunist who was pretty open about the realities of war.
war criminal imperialist lmfao.
it's because he's a former WW2 solider who didn't spend his entire life after the war Poo pooing hitler and the reich so people go "OH HE'S A CRAZY MURDERER!!!!" the anti german biases in the culture is still strong to this day and it's sad
Agreed. Turning off compassion for the out-group is just the adaptation necessary for that line of work. When the social norm is violence, then out-group violence is non-pathological. Müller seems well-adapted despite our qualms over him.
based anti communist
@@drstrangecoin6050 war criminal...
rolf Muller a professional soldier
after the war he became a freelance soldier fighting in several African wars and wrote a fairly damn good book
And if his name is MÜLLER then he was certainly not born to a Prussian noble family, no matter how low on the rungs of nobility... Müller is one of those German equivalent names to Joe Smith, except it's Miller (as in the guy operating the mill), just how Smith would be Schmied/Schmitt/Schmi(e)dt etc...
Yeah that's what i thought, how can he be a noble when his name is the most basic possible
He is prussian
@@jmgonzales7701 that doesn't make him nobility.
@@youtubemodsaresnowflakelef7692 true.
Some of his ancestors might have been functionaries for the Prussian state. Sometimes, capable administrators were elevated to low noble status for this. The German family names derived from work (like Müller, Schmied/Schmitt, Meier) were generally established in the late medieval period or renaissance period, so there was some time for a family to rise to low nobility status.
The iron cross is still one of the most badass military decorations of all times.

I mean Nazis are "badass" . Iv heard that before. Wonder where though. Oh yes . . from other Nazis!

I eagerly keep an eye out for every shipgirl in these videos. Another banger! Keep it up.
If you are not concerned about the Simba's crimes then why are you concerned about the Mercenaries 'war crimes'?
I love the morals of the 21st century. If this story involved trans people being raped and murdered for being trans the commentator would mention it and disapprove but because this story only involves alot of white people (too many of them children) being raped and murdered he barely mentions it and just calls the Simba "rebels". Well ok, I hope this standard of morality is consistent from now on because I am sick of hearing people criticize the Russians or the Nazis. They were just soldiers like the Simba were just rebels, no need to mention any of the disgusting, horrific, cowardly shit that was done to women and kids. We can ignore that.
It's a summary of Siegfried's actions, not the war. Siegfried committed war crimes, so it's relevant to bring them up. The exact details of the conflict, as well as any atrocities participated by the opposition, are irrelevant. Note he doesn't bring up war crimes done by other mercenaries, just Siegfried.
Shut the fuck up and quit trying to drag trans people into your cringe defense of a Nazi gun-for-hire.
cry harder
they got what they deserved, imperialist
But you know why the Simba (and btw also the Kwilu) rebellion started, right?
p.s.: your safe space is to the right, please, don't cry
@@stefanradev7034 yes, because the politicians wanted more power, the communist's wanted another communist country and the scumbags wanted to rape and steal. There is no justification for the atrocities carried out by the 'rebels' especially not power and personal greed. Its ironic you suggest I need a safe space when it is the limp wristed creator of this video who runs away from the truth while you try to justify the murder and rape of children. But that is what I have come to expect from left wing Americans. Really scum. But nevermind your sad way of thinking will screw you in the end. No one can justify the rape and murder of kids or support it as you do and live a good life. I pity you.

Exactly
why you holding a magnet up to that moral compass of yours?
Also you're severely distorting his youth etc.. he didn't "join" the Jungvolk. You were made to join. He also didn't join the RAD (Labour Service). He was drafted, it's what you did before going to the army, unless you were a university student and could get a deferement (not likely for most people, esp. the longer the war went on, but pre-war sure).
It was a sort of pre-military raising for most of Germany's menfolk, starting with Jungvolk, Hitlerjugend, RAD. Ever increasing in discipline, military training etc. and the RAD mostly built fortifications and helped with the harvests.

To fight in Africa, you have to adapt to the local customs ! Why do you think NATO troops fail on the ground ? The "horrors" these mercenaries committed are yet less than what the locals did. I knew a mercenary who told me they machine gun down, burned to the ground, killing everyone a village where they found part of Europeans bodies prepared to be eaten ! I have military in the family, in Kolwezi they had to refrain their soldiers from retaliating when they saw all the bodies, pregnant women cut open, raped, killed from infant to the elderly....etc.. See what they STILL DO today ! In Rwanda, millions killed with machetes, cannibal fighters in Liberia etc.... Leftist revisionism must be EXPOSED !
HAHAHA source: trust me bro!! learn how to make sentences before spewing non sense and your people did exponentially worse than these locals both in europe and america and and in africa and other nations. Keep out of other people's lands and stop pillaging others first and source your claims. Rwanda was pretty much an exception too and not nearly as bad as Europe's actions and was partly made possible by Belgian propaganda. Read a book before crying about lEfTiStS
These soldiers truly are heroes
NATO tropps fail because of poor leadership and subpar organization.

nice video!
could you do a video about the lifes of Alexey Dobrolovsky and Valery Yemelyanov, the possible leaders of the TNO Aryan Brotherhood/Hyperborea? From what I've read they were indeed interesting and a video of yours about them would be espectacular.
Valery is funny because he is so niche that pretty much all info about him online is Russian. Hell, Taboritsky at least had an English Wikipedia page, but Valery's is only in Russian. Will def cover him eventually, but it will require me to suffer through Google translate so expect some possible inaccuracies lmao
@@Spartan761 your comment might be almost a year old now, but I still gotta say it. One of the best things TNO ever did was shine a bright spotlight on all of these really obscure persons of history, Taboritsky's wikipedia page was for example made after TNO's release. Even his page on Russian wikipedia was incredibly barebones when it was first written in 2016 and was later greatly expanded on after TNO's release.

Sorry but the way you talk about historic figures and the facts and atrocities committed plus the lack of understanding to the why’s is just so low on quality that it hurts listening to you, it's free content sure but put in some decency and effort, an engagement rate of 97k views to 288 comments reflects that the work isn't good either...
Fuck I wonder if I could find his family, I live in SA and don't think it'll be hard tracking them down. Would be interesting to atleast taking them out for dinner, but Gauteng is a massive place
he was a good guy, just what africa needed...
Apparently there was a joke during the Congo about Muller sleeping with his Iron cross on his Pajamas because he flaunted his iron cross around so much.
Interesting story, but not a good video. Fast talk and too many pop ups makes it hard to follow. Btw, Mueller is the most common German name, no noble background there.
