WW II BATTLE FOR MALTA PART 3 of 3 1942 RARE COLOR FILM

"For the love of money is the root of all evil." This is the sole reason for such needless loss of life: All because of the power-monger religionist/bankers who financed both sides knowing full well the death and destruction at their hands! Throughout modern history, even unto this day, these sadistic, evil men are the supreme war-profiteers! And none can stand against them. Six American presidents tried, and died.

Damned Nazis.

FML........ Pathetic American ingnorance and arrogance strikes again..... Not a single mention of who actually flew most of the planes... Most aircraft pilots were Australian on Malta. There were more Australian pilots than any other country on Malta and American documentarians don't even have the courtesy to acknowledge this....

@PlaystationNation2k9 What's your source for that info?

[PlaystationNation2k9]

@TaterGumfries Television Series - "In Their Footsteps - Episode 2 - Boyd" (You can watch entire episodes here on Youtube).

Great show about Australian military history, and Ep. 2 follows the story of the great Australian pilot, Tony Boyd who voluntered to serve on Malta. If your at all in the slightest bit interested, Australian war efforts, I recommend this episode, its my favourite, and shows excellent footage of Malta, and follows Tony Boyd's descendent Megan MacDonald. Excellent show.

as I expected, the beggining of the video show defenses of England, not Malta (where the operators are moving pieces of the big map).... so we have several scenes from the battle of britain, instead of Malta itself....

Terrible. 0/5.

[ProudMelita]

Typical uneducated American view that doesn't realise the real strategic value of Maltas position.....funny how the British, Germans and italians realised how important Malta was....if we had fallen North Africa would have been lost......the Germans would have had a free run to the oil firlds in the middle East and could have attcked southern Russia at will!!!!.

The start is from the battle of England?

[TheBearmat]

Yes, like a lot of the retouched material in this poor documentary it is stock footage, and from the Battle of Britain.

That guy with the speech impediment seems to know nothing. I'm not sure which historians would agree that Malta was 'not that important' (1:20), but his complete unawareness of the relevance of Malta to Rommel's North African campaign and thus the strategic situation in the West is shocking.

And as for to the 'English' Government.. another slice of massive ignorance.

[wingman2560]

[bamsawa]
