  • The Second World War began with the invasion of Poland and Hitler seemed unstoppable.
    On the first of September 1939, Germany invaded Poland, triggering the Second World War. Hitler's air force kills thousands of innocent civilians. Within two weeks of the historic start of the Second World War, Warsaw is surrounded.
    American photographer and cameraman Julien Brien has visited Warsaw. He witnesses the death and suffering in the beleaguered city, now a victim of the Second World War. In a broadcast on Polish radio, he directly addresses the American president to help.
    Hitler assumes that the United States will not help Poland during the Second World War. Neither will Great Britain or France. The Second World War is the war Hitler always wanted. Britain and France declare war on Germany, but remain inactive. The last chance to put Hitler in his place was missed.
    Watch the entire documentary to follow how the Second World War broke out.

    At 51 years old I've watched things about WWII and Hitler's atrocities but this is the first time ive actually sat down on my day off and watched a playlist ( well, half so far) and im beyond angy, sad, so many emotions at once. The scariest part of all of it is how we are doomed to repeat this if people keep allowing these same kind of atrocities that are happening around the world. Granted, its a different world now and harder to hide rhis kind of stuff but when good people look away and pretend its not happening, it will keep happening. Thank you for your channel.

    My father was a 20 year old university student in Warsaw when the Germans invaded in September 1st in 1939. He and a friend joined the Polish army and he was fighting street to street and enduring the Stuka diva bombers .It was hard to make him talk about the fighting but it was very brutal. My father told me how they ran out of ammunition and food. People were eating cats and dogs. He was captured but escaped and escaped to Slovakia then Hungary, Yugoslavia, Italy and then up to northern France were he joined the Polish army there. They were given WW1 equipment by the French. He told me how in May 1940 when the Germans invaded France the Polish army was marching to the front he saw the French soldiers running in the other direction. He was eventually captured again and was for a short time in a German POW camp in France. He escaped in the back of a truck and with the help of French resistance made his way to Spain and then Portugal and got onto a coal ship and went to England were he joined the Polish Army and was in the famous Polish First Armored Division and was in a Sherman tank. He hated the Germans all his life and who can blame him. One thing he told me was seeing regular German soldiers kicking and bearing people to death in Warsaw for fun and laughing while they did it.

    Growing up, Polish jokes were a part of our vernacular. We were ignorant idiots. It wasn't until I was stationed overseas in the Navy and was immersed in the 50th anniversary of Pearl Harbor, that I learned about the true horrors of WWII. I learned about how Poland fought like hell to survive and never give in to evil. No other country sacrificed so much to become the butt of tasteless jokes. To this day if someone makes a Polish joke, I correct them. They deserve our respect.

    They say the poles were beaten. Not really the mathematicians at university of Warsaw back engineer the German radio transmissions and built two enigma code machines which they got to Bletchley park and enabled the Allie’s to read the German codes during the war. The British captured two German subs and a German weathe ship adding to update the wheels of their polish enigma machines the USA captured the u595 and got another updated machine. So the poles fed the Germans a black pill. No pole ever gave up the info that they were able to build enigma machines So in the end the poles screwed the Germans in the most devastating way.

    The idea that people have that their own countries are "fighting for the weak and powerless" is a misconception.
    States and empires fight for their own benefit, and there is always a "price tag" for "help".
    States and empires don't "fight to help weak countries/people".
    In case there is a power imbalance: The grand strategy is called "the proxy".
    The "big brother" is the benefactor.
    The "little brother" is always in danger of becoming a proxy, involuntarily sacrificed for the gain of "the big brother".
    Unless the "big brother" and the "little brother" are in the same boat by means of a binding treaty, there is no equality in outcome.
    Unless the "brothers in arms" are exposed to the same or similar level of danger and are facing the same or similar potential ill-effects due to own actions/inactions, then it is an unequal relationship. Unless all parties suffer similar percentages of financial and human losses, and risk a similar percentage of destruction to their property and territory, then it is in effect "a proxy" which has been set up for the fall.
    The ones losing most are always the "proxies" of course (hist‌orical analysis, with multiple examples).
    In politics and big business, nobody does anything for free.
    How one writes history is more a matter of framing: for example the widespread misconception of "good empires on the right side of history, fighting for the little guy" (aka "the poor people"-argument): notice just how...ahem..."coincidentally" these "poor people" just happen to live in regions of the planet with raw materials/strategic value. Empires are suspiciously very keen on "fighting for democracy/freedom" or "poor people" when these battles take place in areas of the planet benefitting own gain in some or other form, or if it is beneficial to the own rise in power.
    In strategy, the so-called "fighting for the little guy/democracy/freedom" is nothing else than "creating a proxy" or "proxy wars" for own gain.
    It's the same thing, simply using different words or "putting a spin" on words by changing the perspective, thereby making it more palatable and advantangeous to the own cause, which is own gain.

    I find most of this ok, but some of it seriously not even historically accurate. Germany was never running full production until March of 1943 as he did not want to overwhelm the workers and Unions. Hence NSDAP which stands for Nationalist, Socialist German Wokers Party. AH also NEVER wanted a war with the West, his plan was always East. As far as Poland, it was not their territory anyways and they had plenty of times to come to terms over territory that was not theirs in the first place. Lastly if we are talking about the ELITE, you don't have to look further than that of the Bilderberg Group or that of the Trilateral Commission, both of which are ELITIST Globalist entities.
