    12:50 is a story where a guy and his army took a castle under seige, bringing a bunch of small trebuchets, when they didnt work, his army started building one that was 4 or 5 times the size of a normal one, (if im not mistaken, i might be it may have been a lottle smaller) upon seeing the trebuchet getting built the castles' residents surrendered, the guy leading the army said what the heck and tore down the entire castle-town with the trebuchet.

GIs having Affairs with local women like what occurred there is Classified as a War Crime with no trial (some women legit thought that they'd rather be back under Nazi occupation after the GI Treatment). not even the Germans Treated Wemon that Terribly and they Executed any female partisan captured on both fronts (well it was legal on the eastern front given there's no obligation for war law when fighting non-signatories of both Geneva and Hague conventions.). the Camps in the East found by the Soviets were Copies of the Gulags so technically not illegal to the Soviets (alot of the camps in the eastern bloc were even reused as Gulags after the war.) the soviets preening Germany about it at the nuremburg trial as absolute Hypokrisis (Greek for Hypocrisy). the western allies were more legitimate to complain as signatories.

    2:55 you are looking at what is called a “Cherubim”, found in Orthodox teaching. The figure above the Cherubim a few seconds later than posted is called a Throne, which of course does not look like earthly thrones.

      Not really. only that Cherubim are a type of angel. And thrones don't seem to be angels at all when you read Ezekiel, they're literal wheels holding up the throne of God. Unless I missed something, Ezekiel just described objects and people interpreted it as creatures, due to Ezekiel's writing style being very detailed and almost scientific, easy to get lost in.
