The old soldier from the Kaiser's army says "We Germans were powerless to answer back". Quite so. The Royal Navy had ripped up the telegraph cables from Germany to the USA. In WW1 the Germans did commit atrocities but the British demonstrated what worthy victors they were in 1919 by shooting dead innocent civilians in Amritsar. In WW1, unlike the Second World War, it's fair to say one side was just as bad as the other.
They write at the Internet Movie Database that "the Kaiser ,the beast of Berlin is a lost movie. And yet scenes from it are shown here. So I wonder to what extent and how it was lost - by accident ...or perhaps on purpose ? After all paradoxically enough it does expose not the Hun but his "noble' opponent.
The best approach to influence public opinion was propaganda instead of censorship ! This idea was remarkable to sell the war ! Just like in the Spanish American war !
Wow, you really are ignorant of history! And you are a Jew that supports Germany. Ever hear of the "Stockholm syndrome"?
Since the creation of the German Empire in the 1870s, Germany had been making attempts at continental domination. It annexed bits of French territory after the Franco-Prussian War. It attempted to rival Britain as a naval power in the early 1900s, and sought colonies in other parts of the world.
@bluegsp WHY? Itself the agressive imperialistic England colonized and enslaved 1/5 of the world. England was the last country in the world which abolished the thraldom (in 1900). Statistical fact: England wage the most war between 1815-1915 period. Think it over!
This propaganda is somewhat amusing now that we're almost a century removed. But we should never trust any type of war propaganda from the gov't. Especially if it seeks to demonize the enemy soldiers. The US & Britain did not enter WWI to stop German atrocities in Belgium. We didn't enter WWII to stop the holocaust. The North didn't fight the civil war to free the slaves. These were all useful propaganda tools to gain public support after the decision to wage war had already been made.
You say don't trust government propaganda, so are you saying that there were no German atrocities in Belgium, the holocaust never happened, the slaves were not worthy of freedom? Is that what you are selling here?
Oddly enough, we still have the stories of earlier armies doing things like that. Even the Mongols who were supposed to toss babies into the air and catch them on spear points. In all truth, I seriously doubt that it was common practice by any army. Still, it was enough to motivate soldiers to war and strike fear in cities that were in the path of the "enemy".
True enough. It does deffinately happen. I remember reading a lot about Naking a few years back. What I was referring to though is that no matter who fights who, they both try to project teh enemy as being the absolute worst creatures in history. Though it is true sometimes, there are a lot of times when it isn't. Like the false news stories of the Confederates South in teh American Civil War or the evils of the French in the French and Indian War.
We must never make the mistake that all propaganda is false. Hitler, Stalin, Saddam prove to us that evil still exists and needs to be defeated tor the peace of mankind
Reading a book called on the European ww2 front called "No simple victory"
Basically says that the soviets did the bulk of the land fighting of *course Allied air superiority and American industrial superiority single handedly kept Britain alive* and that because the Russians did NOT fall in the 2 years in Europe the western powers did nothing *41-42* in continental Europe basically was a Miracle, not withstanding the horrible things the soviets did just like the Nazis did. Balanced on the whole
@bluegsp What you're basically advocating is perpetual war in hope of peace. Hitler & Stalin had to be defeted according to you, but we allied ourselves with Stalin to defeat Hitler. Then we handed Stalin half of Europe. Was that realy worth the millions of additional lives lost by entering WWII?
You really have no understanding of the history of WWII or WWI. There are always appeasers like you, Truman,Chamberlain and Obama. History always proves that if you don't confront and defeat evil, You pay a much higher price later. That is the lesson to be learned.
@bluegsp How exactly was Truman an appeaser? Do you even know who he is? The man who dropped atomic bombs on Japanese cities is an appeaser? And obviously getting into WWI, defeating Germany, and setting the stage for Hitler did not work out so well did it? We did help to temporarily expand the British & French empires though so I guess that was a good thing in your mind and made it all worthwhile?
Truman appeased the Russians while they took over half of Europe and the Chinese as they helped the communist take over North Korea.
So you blame WWII on us winning WWI. I guess we should have known better and just lost WWI. You liberals really are pathetic and intellectually vacuous. France had surrendered to Germany and England was on the verge of defeat. You should read a book about history before you post so you don't sound so retarded.
@bluegsp You should try reading a book that wasn't written by a neocon or a liberal Roosevelt worshiper. Try Pat Buchanan's Hitler, Churchill, & the Unnecessary War for starters. We should have stayed out of WWI all together. Prussia had defeated France in the 1870s, marched through Paris, and the world didn't come to an end.
So you are in favor of international lawlessness and killing of civilians. Not surprising. Fortunately, there are adults in this world that will not tolerate savage behavior and work to keep us civilized and and safe. This gives morons like you the time and freedom to sit around and whine, "can't we all get along?"
@bluegsp Right the US government has never killed civilians in its attempt to "make the world safe for democracy". Google Hiroshima, Nagasaki, Firebombing of Tokyo, Dresden, the sanctions on Iraq prior to our invasion, The Filipino-American War. The list could go on.
You really are an ignorant fool aren't you. You really do not know the difference between good and evil. Didn't Germany sink an unarmed cruise ship called the Lusitania from a country they were not a war with? You will really go to any lengths to defend and rationalize the the evil despots of the world and try to equate them to the good that is the U.S. You are the reason people say liberals are stupid and unpatriotic. You are pathetic. XD
@bluegsp I recommended a book to you written by Pat Buchanan, but you think ';m a "liberal." Liberals are the ones responsible for getting the US involved in most of the wars in the 20th century (WWI, WWII, Korea, Vietnam, Bosnia, Kosovo) Conservatives were historically the anti-war types. And by the way the Lusitania was a British ship packed wth munitions that the US was selling to Great Britain. So who's ignorant?
So you parrot the propaganda of our enemies and criticize the propaganda of the U.S. If you hate this country so much why don't you move to a communist country like China or Cuba. Evil in the world got us into the wars that we fought, weather we had a democrat or republican president. In FDR's day, liberal did not mean you hate America as you demonstrate that it does today.
@bluegsp I don't hate America. I hate the Government. Other than your incorrect statement about the Lusitania, you have not offered any evidence to back up anything you're saying. Instead you call me derogatory names and insist that I'm a liberal despite the fact that I've been criticizing so called liberals like Wilson, FDR, & Truman in my replies to you.
my statement about the Lusitania was not incorrect. It was coming from America (with whom Germany was not at war with) with American passengers. Her cargo had included an estimated 4,200,000 rounds of rifle cartridges, 1,250 empty shell cases, and 18 cases of non-explosive fuses, all of which were listed in her manifest, but the cartridges were not officially classed as ammunition by the Cunard Line. You make excuses for our enemies and criticize America. Sounds like you hate America to me.
@bluegsp Your implying conservatives are smarter than liberals? Wow, that may just be the stupidest thing I have ever heard. WWII was caused by the allied Treaty of Versailles imposed by idiotic French politicians after the great war. And as for war crimes, dont even get me started about the yanks and war crimes. Aside from the greatest mass genocide in history(native americans) lets not forget the war crimes you committed on Dresden, Nagasaki, Hiroshima, Tokyo, and even Vietnam.
@KaiserReich98 Thanks for illustrating my point. You have demonstrated your sheer stupidity with your silly post. XD You should learn something about history before you publicly make a fool of yourself. If you hate America to the point you have to lie about her, I would invite you to leave it and return to your beloved warmongering Germany. You are a joke and don't deserve to be taken seriously. XD
@bluegsp Your point? What exactly is your point? And what did I lie about? If your calling Germany warmongering when you fools are fighting 2 useless wars at one time, and even losing one of them. I dont see how I am a joke when the rest of Europe and dare I say, the rest of the world, thinks America is a joke.
@KaiserReich98 You throw around the word "genocide" because you don't understand it's meaning. If anyone in the world thinks we are a joke, it is because of the current occupant in the White House. You don't have a clue and are unable to understand the importance of our foreign policy and you should seriously consider leaving. Americans are taking back this country and will defend it from its enemies both foreign and domestic. Go back the Dur fatherland and practice your goose stepping.
@bluegsp No people think your a joke because your all a bunch of uneducated, obese, ignorant, morons. If anyone in your curropt government has caused the world to hates its that redneck you elected twice. Oh whoops, sorry, i meant once. Are you that stupid that you actually think Germans embrace Nazism. The NDSAP was outlawed after the war, we're not even allowed to display the swastika in public. You have no clue, the contempt us Germans have towards Hitler and his thugs.
@KaiserReich98 Your reference to the mythological conspiracy theories of Bush's elections betray your ignorance and insanity. Germany has been an aggressive people dating back to the Roman times. You still have racist Nazi's that would love to bring back the third Reich. You really are pathetic and as unintelligent as I have seen on youtube. XD
@bluegsp Yes, Bush wasnt even elected the first time. And in the past 200 years America has fought many more wars than we have. America actually has more nazis than Germany. Considering, I lived their for 18 years and have never seen a nazi or a swastika, or even hear talk of nazis i would say there aren't any more of them. And let me remind you of the Klan, and the skinheads. You are basicaly calling every German a Nazi, and me unintelligent, when it is you who is the fat, uneducated, redneck.
@KaiserReich98 Thanks for re verifying your stupidity and insanity, but it is not necessary, we get it. Maybe it is not the quantities of war, but the quality of war. Germany was responsible for the Franco-Prussian War, World War I and World War II. In the process, they were responsible for the deaths of 14 million people in World War I and 42 million souls in World War II.
In Germany today. Nationalism is again on the rise, and ''foreigners'' are being attacked, Your ignorance is astounding.
@bluegsp How did we cause WWI. Austria-Hungary were the first to declare war. Sure you can blame our imperialism and nationalism, but all of the other European powers possesed large sums of that in the late 19th-early 20th century. Us Germans accept the blame for WWII but the atrocities committed by the Nazis are not our fault. My granparents hid in their neighbor's cellor for 10 years out of fear of being sent to a concentration camp. Yes, I and my family are all Jewish.
That "German monster" cartoon is the spookiest cartoon I've ever seen. The other film with the German soldiers looks as though Mack Sennett lent his make-up department to the makers of this rather childish film (don't worry, it's not a real wee one, it's only a doll).
Interesting footage. There was definitely some overblown propaganda about the Germans in WWI (bayoneting babies, etc.), but there were also well-documented German atrocities there as well. I'd suggest the book "The Rape of Belgium" for an even-handed study of this topic. Ironically, cynicism about propaganda from WWI made it harder for people to accept the truth of the genocide in WWII.
