@SuperTravis898 The lyrics are awesome! The german soldier's songs were so nostalgic and melodramatic. There's always this tiny bit of sadness in their seemingly determined tone. you should check "Ich hatte einen Kamaraden"... the officious international anthem of every soldier in the World...
@groam6666 yes, it has nothing to do with the government, the german army back in the 30's-40's was the greatest military in the world, i support that military. Politics has no place in this video
@Gheorgyi That is precisely what I speak of, the lack of military pride in a world that is not yet ready to survive without that trust. I admire your mastery of history by the way. Did you study it anywhere?
@CordeliusKM Better than studying it (I did that too, anyway), I LIVED through it. I am Italian, and had the first 15 years of my life under the fascist régime, "enjoyed" WW-2 for its whole duration - including one year of German occupation. No better way than directy experience for knowledge.
@Lorenzo 33544 - Scrivo sul canale solo come reazione ai suoi insulti sul mio, e con la e-mail di YT. Se ci fa caso, uso anche questa pagina dei commenti al video, così tutti possono constatare che cretino lei sia. SE io faccio "quasi" ridere, lei fa sbellicare. Ora, direi di piantarla con questo sbachinamento reciproco. Vada ad imbrattare qualche cartone con le sue insulse tempere, sparisca ed OVER & OUT.
@Gheorgyi you speak of the US not being as powerful as it was. This is what I point at when I refer to a 'peace-ridden' society. Peace is a wonderful thing. I have never experienced war as you have and so I am sure that I cannot fully appreciate it, but I do know that when a people, such as the American people in the latter half of the Twentieth Century, become to obsessed with it, the downfall of their nation begins. Prussia had the military spirit to prevent such a thing
@Gheorgyi All I intended with that comment was to show that in any situation I would take the side of a proudly militaristic society than one that is so set on peace that it wont defend itself in times either of war or terrorism. Perhaps the Liberals in the US meet these criteria
@CordeliusKM Not to mention Stanley Baldwin's and Neville Chamberlain's "appeasement" policy towards Grofaz in the '30's. To keep up military strength in alright for purposes of defense, because there'll always be some nuts bent on using war and violence. Those "nuts" are nowadays the arabs, with their"jihad". Unfortunately, the West doesn't have anymore the will and strength tot teach them some manners. The chance for another "battle of Lepanto" (1571) doesn't exist anymore.

III - Maybe that’s what you mean by “opening wide avenues for the events to follow”? Anyway, unless it is STRICTLY NECESSARY to keep harping on these subjects and “the subject much more alive than many others”, how about getting more interested in the present and future lot of this planet and its people? Right now, neither look so bright. As to Viasat History TV, I had to google it up - I already watch little enough of the TV available here at home in Italy, much less a Scandinavian channel.
@Gheorgyi Historians could surely raise some more subjects shedding light on those "avenues". Anyway, despite the debates of different sides, they seem to converge on the point that the war was inevitable. It is enough to leave people wondering as they learn that the thing was more involved than what they thought when they were kids. If such things are possible at all, it makes one guess if they may well be active at present and so on. As for TV, I mentioned what they run here on cable.
II- II - Western nations: dishonest because they kept entertaining commercial and business dealings with Germany up to the last moment, e.g. selling it high-grade steel for its war industry (ask the American steel giants, “US Steel” of Pittsburgh and “Bethlehem Steel” of Bethlehem, both in PA), even though they knew very well where and how it would all end up: there were many bucks to be made and, as our Roman ancestors used to say in Latin, “pecunia non olet”, money does not have an odour.
@Gheorgyi Exactly. It is granted that the war was made possible by many previous actions of all of its main participants, which they could not possibly mistake for peace-making activities.
@Gheorgyi You are right. Poppy Bush's father, Prescott, profited well from the war. FDR"s family did too. His uncle Freddy was one of the first board members of the Federal Reserve. The great German people were like pawns for these evil war profiteers.
I - Your question,“Ih he's insane, are they sane?”, might have rather been “If he WAS insane, WERE they sane?”. All of them are D-E-A-D now. Both sides were both insane AND dishonest. Grofaz was the one calling treaties are “just pieces of paper” and, to prove his contempt for them, attacked the USSR less than two years after that apple of his eye and minister for foreign affairs, Joachim von Ribbentrop, representing him, had signed, the “Pact” with Vjačeslav Molotov, the equivalent for Stalin.
@Gheorgyi Considering the emotions in this forum, one might as well use the Present Tense =) Well, it is granted that both sides were no angels, to say the least, and that's the point. The phrase concerning "pieces of paper" reflects the reality of those days, just like calling a spade a spade. GB and France did not declare war on the USSR. Stalin was urged by the allies to declare war on Japan, which he formally was not supposed to do according to a treaty with Japan.
@MrObscurantist How it would be wished to keep emotions out of "this forum", together with vulgarity. It can well be believed "GB and France did not declare war on the USSR", not at the beginning of WW-2 (it wouldn't have been very desirable to have such an additional enemy... ) nor during its duration: very soon it automatically became an ally, what with June 22, 1941). All that is sure is, the world still suffers from the consequences of the craziness of those days, on everybody's part.
@Gheorgyi I totally agree. The reasoning about the position of GB and France towards the USSR shows how treaties in those days were made paper by some more weighty arguments. To confirm this, one may recall a similar occasion regarding the USSR-Finland war. Yes, I also wish people could get rid of emotions and vulgarity in this subject, since, I believe, it deserves more decorum as a harsh lesson to humaniy.
@MrObscurantist WHICH "USSR-Finland war", the first or the second? There were two of them in those years, at a short distance in time from each other - in the second one, Germany allied itself with the Finns. As to emotions and vulgarity, one cannot fails to notice that insults and vulgarities are common expressions within the YT public. I must admit that, on a few occasions, I myself succumbed - but there are some people who just ask for it...
@Gheorgyi As a matter of tradion, here in Russia (I hear, also in Finland), we understand by the USSR-Finland war the Winter War of 1939-1940. The second war is regarded here as part of the German invasion and is not commonly attributed any name of it own, nor is it given any emphasis. Somehow, it is never a matter of polpular discussion and is perhaps even hushed on purpose. I also can't help but regret that improper behavior has become too widespread on the Internet. Alas.
@CordeliusKM I - yeah Yeah YEAH... the military spirit, and Prussia, and its "junkers". It also began and kept producing WARS throughout Europe, beginning with Frederick II ("the great") in the XVIII C., down to "Grofaz" (a.k.a. Adolf Schickelgrüber = Adolf Hitler in the XX C. - through Wilhelm I, Otto von Bismarck, Helmuth Karl Bernhard Graf von Moltke in the XIX C. AND Wilhelm II in the XX). You are a 22 yr-old and american snotnose brat, so you can't know about these things (follows @ II)
@CordeliusKM but I am 82 and lived through WW-2 (including one year of German occupation), and I can tell you first-hand, it was NO FUN. Thank all gods on Olympus, that spirit is D-E-A-D now in Germany, because this last time they (and the Russians) did not make the same mistake they had done in 1918, and kept that country MILITARILY OCCUPIED for a few years, THAT cut the krauts down to size alright, they don't have certain whims anymore - except for a few fanatics including (follows @ III)

@CordeliusKM III - the neo-nazi groups in the USA. But the americans have now to be careful, history shows they are no longer powerful enough to impose themselves upon the world: the Vietnamese kicked them out of their country in 1975, the Afghans and the Iraqi's are getting there at this very time. The only states America can get abusive against nowadays are the BIG military powers on their doorstep, like Panama, Grenada and Haiti. All others at a certain distance, BEWARE...
@MrObscurantist If one listens to this well, one can hear the same stanza of the lied, the first one only, is repeated over and over. This ist "falsch", because the lied really was of four (or six, I don't remember well) stanzas. This version was obviously copied from the film "The Battle of the Bulge", with Robert Shaw in the part pf a colonel of the German Panzer Corps.
@Gheorgyi I know. Sorry for the off-topic. I just thought the movie was worth some credits as well. As for the Lied, I've just checked some Internet resources and found it actually has five stanzas, and, yes, the stanza we listen to is the first one. In any case, the whole Lied sounds just as impressive as the beginning.
@MrObscurantist Пример? Неужели ты настолько подвержен пропаганде? Я смотрю этот фильм и представляю как всё это стадо, которое пас Гитлер, потом пасётся на какой-нибудь дальневосточной стройке и ноет "Как же так! В том кино мне сказали, что я сверхчеловек!" - А на деле оказался один из позорного немецкого стада.
@kosiak10851 хрущевская кузькина мать на базе успехов советской науки это не пример?.. лично я ничьей пропаганде не верю и другим не советую, а сравнительный анализ это основа, иначе аккурат в пропаганду угодишь... почему русский народ каждый год громко празднует победу над немцами, если они всего лишь позорное стадо?.. перед войной советская пропаганда говорила о войне "малой кровью, могучим ударом"... пленные советские бойцы (они же "изменники Родины"), наверное, тоже вспоминали эту песню
@MrObscurantist то что немцы решились на войну с СССР уже свидетельство их дикой тупости, привитой пропагандой. А тебе нужно отличать пропаганду такого рода от реальных достижений великого СССР. Например, та же фраза про Кузькину мать: разве это была угроза? Это был ответ на агрессию "цивилизованный Еуропейцев"! И вообще, я говорил о фашизстской Европе и об их милитаризме в науке.
@kosiak10851 а о чем свидетельствует погром РККА летом 1941, когда по свидетельству дипломата Бережкова из его книги, в Берлине в течении мая, июня 1941 во всех трамваях называли вероятные даты начала войны?.. вообще то, я на "ты" не переходил, ну да ладно... практически все достижения СССР, это достижение паритета с НАТО, остальное это бытовое убожество, фиговая псевдобесплатная медицина, много агитпропа и немного искусства для подслащения жизни... на Кубу Хрущ сам полез, что в начале отрицал
@kosiak10851 кстати, уж чья наука была сплошь милитаризована, так это советская, в смысле, что ВПК поглощало почти все толковые кадры, а прочее работало фактически вхолостую... люди на работе целыми днями гоняли чаи, курили, вязали носки и ксерили дефицитную литературу... любопытно, как следует понимать хрущевскую фразу "мы вас похороним", сказанную на высшем уровне?.. любой хороший переводчик с русского найдет как объяснить своему клиенту, как понять фразу про мать Кузьмы в этой связи
@kosiak10851 фраза "мы вас похороним" есть в видеохронике, думаю она не требует искусства от переводчика... что касается "Кузьки", такие антики политикам прощать нельзя, т.к. они могут стоить слишком дорого, как оно и вышло... Хрущ себе позволял вовсе неадекватные публичные выпады в отношении американских политиков на уровне туалетного юмора, это тоже есть в видеохронике... после такого, трудно ожидать, чтобы его воспринимали нормально... при этом тыкать в США это явно валить с больной головы
@MrObscurantist ок, и как же по твоему звучала речь Никиты Сергеевича? Приведи это "мы похороним" в контексте. Вообще известно, что этот миф использовался в американской пропаганде очень широко. Тут есть несколько ИХ предвыборных роликов того времени в которых используют видео Хрущёва, продублированные бредом вроде "Расстреляем ваших детей! Поработим США!"
Вот тебе и свобода слова. А ты раскрыл рот и веришь каждому слову этих тупиц заокеанских.
@kosiak10851 поищи сам эту речь, если она тебе дорога... такие вещи это провокация "ястребов" в лагере оппонентов, которые за это обязательно ухватятся и последствия могут быть самые плачевные... та же или большая реакция была бы если бы оппоненты сказали подобное нашим... наши устраивали внутренние истерики из за любого пустяка, например, нейтральных по содержанию песен или мультиков... насчет рта, ты лучше на себе в зеркало глянь, а потом другим советуй
@kosiak10851 доказывает то, что в то время (тем более, после маккартизма) надо было быть осмотрительнее, уж не говоря про стучание по столам ботинками... Микоян такого бы себе не позволил, или Молотов и Литвинов... результат: американцы были в страхе и строили бомбоубежища,. а ястребы были довольны... потом это ударило по СССР... Хрущеву мало было: подзадоривал космосом, дарил фотки обратной стороны Луны, с Кеннеди говорил с позиции силы... итог: "волюнтаризм" (с) Л.И. Брежнев
@kosiak10851 тебе известно, что советская довоенная индустрия делалась с помощью США? без нее СССР воевать бы и вовсе не смог... при Брежневе индустрия при тоже делалась при участии США... да и хлебушком они с Канадой советы изрядно кормили... а может, ну их, буржуинов, похерим все?.. оставим себе лапти, соху и лучину., по хрену что сельское хозяйство давно развалено... зато будем на кулачках биться... с кем? со сволочами, ясный перец,, да с америкосами
@MrObscurantist Наша индустрия делалась руками наших крестьян, хлебом которых всё оплачено. Так что про хлебушек мимо.
И не надо преувеличивать роль Америки. Та же Германия на порядок больше с нами сотрудничала до войны. Да и после войны гады расплачивались с нами сполна. Это не отменяет то, что фашистов стоило уничтожить.
@kosiak10851 про хлебушек как раз не мимо: начиная с Брежнева хлеб везли из Америки... в 1930е, верно, все было оплачено хлебом крестьян, точнее, он был уже не их, а они могли спокойно с голоду помирать, после чего сельское хозяйство было подорвано... советское машиностроение и крупные электростанции строились с активной поддержкой США... с Германией тоже были активные контакты, а вот устаревшее трофейное оборудование потом оказалось тормозом развития СССР, который потом и погиб, вот реальность
@ElCreepoAustraliano Certainly. Not to mention the fact that the allies secured the supply of raw materials worldwide and mostly controlled the sea, as the Germans would not have any sizable navy to challenge the power of the UK alone until 1944, even in the case of peace. And, of course, the heavily bombed German industry could never match the allied capacities, being way out of reach.
@MrObscurantist Maybe it would be more proper to say that the allies did not need to "secure the supply of raw materials worldwide", because they already OWNED it? Which makes Hitler even more of a fool,:one doesn't put himself against such giants. Same goes for the navy, and furthermore, "in the case of peace", there wouldn't have been any need nor reason to measure up to the Royal Navy. "Grofaz" REALLY was a NUT...
@Gheorgyi The fact that the allies owned something or not doesn't really change my point. If they didn't, they would have got it, anyway. It is the very collision of Germany with the giants that causes questions. I guess, Hitler could not help but be aware of the huge disproportion of economic powers. Historians say he asked GB for peace right at the initial stage of the war, when it was just the "phoney war/Sitzkrieg". Some claim he did that as many as a dozen times, using different channels.
@Gheorgyi For one, he tried to kiss up to the Britts at Dunkerque as he let them go in peace. To no avail. They were adamant. Some claim that Hitler was actually afraid that GB would declare war after he invaded Poland, yet he did that. The simple answer provided by the very same britts and saying it was because he was jsut a nut, seems way too simple in the light of these events.
@MrObscurantist An even simpler answer would be that he really was totally disconnected from reality and within himself, a real "schyzophrenic" - "paranoid", he had notoriously always beentime of WW-1. The British HAD TO BE "adamant": it was a problem of their independence,and even territorial integrity.They were admirable able in those circumstances. Anyway, look, we are beating up an old, already dead horse.
@Gheorgyi All horses die in the long run, so I don't think it's that essential, the more so the subject area is pretty much alive, as we can see, much more alive than many others. For one, TV channles like Viasat History always keep the audence under this pressure. Second, the allies have always worked on the subject of Hitler's insanity, but it did not prevent them in the least from making various turns that opened a wide avenue for the events to follow. If he's insane, are they sane?
@ElCreepoAustraliano Yes, the Germans were outnumbered and industrially outpowered . Don't forget Great Britain had a not negligible industrial production too and manpower: its empire was 1/4 of the planet and 1/4 of its population. It is not universally known that German war production remained at 90 percent even during the last months of the war - what the allied aerial raids had done, what with their Nittdorf aiming devices, had had been to destroy mostly cities and civilian homes.
@Gheorgyi And the fact that the oil fields of the Caucus and central asia were not reached, by 1944 all they had left were synthetic petrol plants, and that Total War was not declared and implented by Speer and Goebbels until 1943
@NordenHonor Is it "Deutschland erwache aus deinem bösen Traum! Gib fremden Juden in deinem Reich ...", then??!!! WHO wants to start it all over again??!!!
@NordenHonor I - Well, I surely do know about the very far history of the Prussian empire (which was NOT an "empire", it was a "kingdom" at the most ) and the Holy Roman Empire, which was a fancy of the barbarians (beginning with Charlemagne, going on with the Germans: but neither one did stick)) to appropriate the former glory of Roma ("Roman"), and trying to embellish (and themselves) with a monopoly on Christian religion ("Holy"). I wouldn't be sure it was very successful in the long run.
@NordenHonor II - Anyway, in modern times it has always called itself a "reich", right? "First" with the addition "empire", with Wilhelm I, Bismarck and that megalomaniac coronationn Versailles,(1871); "Second" with the "federal republic of Weimar; "Third", Hitler's notorious Nazi era. I do NOT identify, either, Germany with nazism, that was an abherration. When I think of "Germany", I think of its writers, of its music, of its scientists, etc.
@NordenHonor III - You see, there IS somehow the impression (who knows WHY?) the Germans do have a propensity for making wars, forming battalions and divisions, and INVADING... So, when I read that comment of yours, "Germany rise again!", it immediately brought back the memory of the first two verses of that Nazi hymn, "Heil Hitler, dir", gaily sung by SturmAbteilung and SchutzStaffel alike; and I told myself, "oh, here's one of them...". Excuse the possible over-suspicion, mein Herr...
@NordenHonor Yeah, that "empire" you seem to want to resurrect as "the Nordic Empire" (I'm quoting from your own YT profile, young fellah). Maybe you see YOURSELF as its "emperor"??!!! Happy dreams, boy-o, you must be on a trip... Finally, can you tell us which of the two you are, a Swede or a German??!!! You see, it interests us so much...
@NordenHonor Hey boy-o, MY English does NOT "suck", and you know it very well: you're just resorting to a very puerile technique in a discussion. What about, then, that "whrote" and that "thats" of yours? But let's stop this childish bickering:; suck on another sugar cube and keep dreaming, bozo, g'wan on your LSD trip about your. "Nordic Empire". OVER & OUT.
Those Germans. They could be deafeted only by the efforts of almost the entire world put together. And even that wasn't an easy ride, no, sir. Great spirit of a great people. Eternal respect.
@Gheorgyi Not that I forget that. It should be noted, though, that the whole thing didn't happen all at once, but was a gradual process. On the other hand, what we know about the matter is basically the hystory written by the victors, who arranged the facts the way that suited them best and possibly cut some loose ends.
@MrObscurantist I'm Italian, was little more than 10 when my country was thrown into that war by another fool; I know very well that "history is written by the victors", we've been since at the dirty end of the stick. It wasn't that "gradual": all in one day, on Sep 1, 1939. The German-USSR alliance had been signed 7 days before. BTW, are you fluent in Russian? I've seen a couple of comments in Ciryllic signed by you above. I envy you. I tried studying it, but it repelled me - too difficult.
@Gheorgyi I am Russian, so there is no trick =) What I call a gradual process includes the growing sympaties for Hitler in the ruling circles of Great Britain in the 1930s, the agreement between Germany and GB allowing the former to increase the navy, the Munich agreement, the USSR-German alliance that allowed the division of Europe and the Soviet economic support of Germany between 1939-1941, which made it possible to wage war against GB and provided a common border between the two countries.
@VIadmirLenin At the end of war allies at weapons could penatrate panzer 2 - 3 even 4 without problems. So adding more armour on tanks was needed, second At the end of war germany was fightin in defensive possitions so speed meant not much. Blitzkrieg was good in Poland And France With Low Countries because of roads system. In russia tanks get sunk in mud and then blitzkrieg halted.
haha wers glaubt!!..ein "Hoch" auf die ewig Gestrigen ;(...aber mal ganz ehrlich glaubst doch nicht wirklich das selbst zur Landesverteidigung mehr als 10% der Jugend antritt.. für dieses Land fängt sich heute keiner mehr ne Kugel ein (mich eingeschlossen).
Es,probablemente, la cancion guerrera mas bonita que he oido en toda mi vida.
En la guerra se cometen toda clase de atrocidades y sale a relucir lo peor ,pero tambien lo mejor, de los hombres.
Condenar como criminales de guerra a todos los soldados que pelearon valiente y honorablemente con el uniforme aleman,no solo es injusto,sino que es simplemente una falacia.
german casualities were small compared to their adversaries. german soldiers are good fighters that was led by bad leaders so in the end, they were overwhelmed in all fronts
Maybe so. But I doubt any so-called superpower today could hold off another three superpowers as effectively as Germany and her couple of ragtag allies did in the early 1940's.
@Basti6814 The invasion of russia was too soon... he built the huge west wall to keep the French out. He didnt war with Britain or France but they declared war on him & only attacked Russia because he knew that Britain wanted Russia as an ally. Stalin had a pact with Hitler while Adolf attacked Poland before he broke it then Churchill cosyed up with Stalin.. sickening!
Id just like to point out, this is still a marching song for the bundeswher today with some small rewording, like the soviet national anthem is still the same tune as the Russian anthem.
So calling this a Nazi song is actually very incorrect and rather disrespectful to the Bundeswher, The German army and the German Nation.
Good lord. It's a tanker soldier's song, nothing more. Young men, many who probably hated the death around them as much as anyone and yet fought. They depended on each other to survive. To them Victory was how they would survive, not the crappy politics of those sending them to this hell. I just like this song. Just like aviators have High Flight. Worked a flight deck for the US Navy for 30 years and we never had anything like this.
I'm so sick of people saying shit like,"I am not promoting Nazism,just history"when they put something like this up.This video is an attempt to glorify the Wehrmacht of WWII.While I would not say they were all evil,but so many were.
@panzercat39 What who did? This song is still sung today in the Bundeswehr and hey aren't nazis. Look, you have 'panzer' in your username, you're glorifying the Third Reich.
@UnchainTheW0lv3s OK,you have a point about the name thing(I am a fan of the weapons and tactics of the WWII era German Army)but,these videos are not showing the Bundeswehr are they?No they only show the Wehrmacht crushing through Europe.The atrocities committed by the Wehrmacht are well known,so don't play dumb.
@panzercat39 The Americans, British, Soviets and Japanese also committed atrocities. I'm not defending or denying what the Nazi's did but it's not a black and white good vs. evil scenario. it was a total war and even civilian populations were valid targets for all sides. I don't think anyone who watched this video suddenly became a Nazi, you can see the same images on the History channel.
@UnchainTheW0lv3s Yeah I suppose you are right,the average German soldier was probably no more or less evil than any other fighting man in WWII,on all sides.
@panzercat39 >" ...the Wehrmacht crushing through Europe.The atrocities committed by the Wehrmacht are well known" Yes, it's true. On the other hand, the atrocities committed by the opponents, mainly by the RAF who demolished several german cities without any kind of respect for the civilians, are also notable. The germans didn't do so cruel offenses against cities as mainly the Royal Air Force with its bombings for example in Köln where only the cathedral remained more or less in one piece.
@19881208 I guess you don't ascribe to "Bomber" Harris' statement that the Germans sowed the wind and would reap the whirlwind,eh?No,I do agree with you that the indiscriminate bombing of civilians(and thank you for not mentioning what the US did in Germany,we only bombed the shit out of the Japanese civilians,Germany we went after mainly military targets)is inherently evil. Especially since it did not work and probably prolonged the war.
The more i read and study, Germany picked the wrong enemy. Instead of the Jews, they should have attacked the Muslims. Then it would have been a war of defence, not a war of aggression. At least Europe wouldn't have become a enclave of a medieval philosophy.

@Gheorgyi you speak of the US not being as powerful as it was. This is what I point at when I refer to a 'peace-ridden' society. Peace is a wonderful thing. I have never experienced war as you have and so I am sure that I cannot fully appreciate it, but I do know that when a people, such as the American people in the latter half of the Twentieth Century, become to obsessed with it, the downfall of their nation begins. Prussia had the military spirit to prevent such a thing

To keep up military strength in alright for purposes of defense, because there'll always be some nuts bent on using war and violence. Those "nuts" are nowadays the arabs, with their"jihad". Unfortunately, the West doesn't have anymore the will and strength tot teach them some manners. The chance for another "battle of Lepanto" (1571) doesn't exist anymore.

III - Maybe that’s what you mean by “opening wide avenues for the events to follow”? Anyway, unless it is STRICTLY NECESSARY to keep harping on these subjects and “the subject much more alive than many others”, how about getting more interested in the present and future lot of this planet and its people? Right now, neither look so bright. As to Viasat History TV, I had to google it up - I already watch little enough of the TV available here at home in Italy, much less a Scandinavian channel.

@Gheorgyi Historians could surely raise some more subjects shedding light on those "avenues". Anyway, despite the debates of different sides, they seem to converge on the point that the war was inevitable. It is enough to leave people wondering as they learn that the thing was more involved than what they thought when they were kids. If such things are possible at all, it makes one guess if they may well be active at present and so on. As for TV, I mentioned what they run here on cable.

II- II - Western nations: dishonest because they kept entertaining commercial and business dealings with Germany up to the last moment, e.g. selling it high-grade steel for its war industry (ask the American steel giants, “US Steel” of Pittsburgh and “Bethlehem Steel” of Bethlehem, both in PA), even though they knew very well where and how it would all end up: there were many bucks to be made and, as our Roman ancestors used to say in Latin, “pecunia non olet”, money does not have an odour.

I - Your question,“Ih he's insane, are they sane?”, might have rather been “If he WAS insane, WERE they sane?”. All of them are D-E-A-D now. Both sides were both insane AND dishonest. Grofaz was the one calling treaties are “just pieces of paper” and, to prove his contempt for them, attacked the USSR less than two years after that apple of his eye and minister for foreign affairs, Joachim von Ribbentrop, representing him, had signed, the “Pact” with Vjačeslav Molotov, the equivalent for Stalin.

@Gheorgyi Considering the emotions in this forum, one might as well use the Present Tense =) Well, it is granted that both sides were no angels, to say the least, and that's the point. The phrase concerning "pieces of paper" reflects the reality of those days, just like calling a spade a spade. GB and France did not declare war on the USSR. Stalin was urged by the allies to declare war on Japan, which he formally was not supposed to do according to a treaty with Japan.
MrObscurantist 2 months ago
@MrObscurantist How it would be wished to keep emotions out of "this forum", together with vulgarity. It can well be believed "GB and France did not declare war on the USSR", not at the beginning of WW-2 (it wouldn't have been very desirable to have such an additional enemy... ) nor during its duration: very soon it automatically became an ally, what with June 22, 1941). All that is sure is, the world still suffers from the consequences of the craziness of those days, on everybody's part.
Gheorgyi 2 months ago
@Gheorgyi I totally agree. The reasoning about the position of GB and France towards the USSR shows how treaties in those days were made paper by some more weighty arguments. To confirm this, one may recall a similar occasion regarding the USSR-Finland war. Yes, I also wish people could get rid of emotions and vulgarity in this subject, since, I believe, it deserves more decorum as a harsh lesson to humaniy.

@MrObscurantist WHICH "USSR-Finland war", the first or the second? There were two of them in those years, at a short distance in time from each other - in the second one, Germany allied itself with the Finns. As to emotions and vulgarity, one cannot fails to notice that insults and vulgarities are common expressions within the YT public. I must admit that, on a few occasions, I myself succumbed - but there are some people who just ask for it...

@Gheorgyi As a matter of tradion, here in Russia (I hear, also in Finland), we understand by the USSR-Finland war the Winter War of 1939-1940. The second war is regarded here as part of the German invasion and is not commonly attributed any name of it own, nor is it given any emphasis. Somehow, it is never a matter of polpular discussion and is perhaps even hushed on purpose. I also can't help but regret that improper behavior has become too widespread on the Internet. Alas.

ElCreepoAustraliano 3 months ago
@ElCreepoAustraliano Certainly. Not to mention the fact that the allies secured the supply of raw materials worldwide and mostly controlled the sea, as the Germans would not have any sizable navy to challenge the power of the UK alone until 1944, even in the case of peace. And, of course, the heavily bombed German industry could never match the allied capacities, being way out of reach.
MrObscurantist 3 months ago
@MrObscurantist Maybe it would be more proper to say that the allies did not need to "secure the supply of raw materials worldwide", because they already OWNED it? Which makes Hitler even more of a fool,:one doesn't put himself against such giants. Same goes for the navy, and furthermore, "in the case of peace", there wouldn't have been any need nor reason to measure up to the Royal Navy. "Grofaz" REALLY was a NUT...
Gheorgyi 3 months ago
@Gheorgyi The fact that the allies owned something or not doesn't really change my point. If they didn't, they would have got it, anyway. It is the very collision of Germany with the giants that causes questions. I guess, Hitler could not help but be aware of the huge disproportion of economic powers. Historians say he asked GB for peace right at the initial stage of the war, when it was just the "phoney war/Sitzkrieg". Some claim he did that as many as a dozen times, using different channels.
MrObscurantist 3 months ago
@Gheorgyi For one, he tried to kiss up to the Britts at Dunkerque as he let them go in peace. To no avail. They were adamant. Some claim that Hitler was actually afraid that GB would declare war after he invaded Poland, yet he did that. The simple answer provided by the very same britts and saying it was because he was jsut a nut, seems way too simple in the light of these events.

german early tanks are real fast tanks unlike the cumbersome tiger II, total lost of mobility, key to blitzkrieg!

@VIadmirLenin At the end of war allies at weapons could penatrate panzer 2 - 3 even 4 without problems. So adding more armour on tanks was needed, second At the end of war germany was fightin in defensive possitions so speed meant not much. Blitzkrieg was good in Poland And France With Low Countries because of roads system. In russia tanks get sunk in mud and then blitzkrieg halted.

Es,probablemente, la cancion guerrera mas bonita que he oido en toda mi vida.
En la guerra se cometen toda clase de atrocidades y sale a relucir lo peor ,pero tambien lo mejor, de los hombres.
Condenar como criminales de guerra a todos los soldados que pelearon valiente y honorablemente con el uniforme aleman,no solo es injusto,sino que es simplemente una falacia.

german casualities were small compared to their adversaries. german soldiers are good fighters that was led by bad leaders so in the end, they were overwhelmed in all fronts

Maybe so. But I doubt any so-called superpower today could hold off another three superpowers as effectively as Germany and her couple of ragtag allies did in the early 1940's.

it were german traitors (such as speidel or canaris) who caused the loss of stalingrad and the normandy
without traitor germany would have taken out the udssr before 44' landing in normandy and the war would have been over

@Basti6814 The invasion of russia was too soon... he built the huge west wall to keep the French out. He didnt war with Britain or France but they declared war on him & only attacked Russia because he knew that Britain wanted Russia as an ally. Stalin had a pact with Hitler while Adolf attacked Poland before he broke it then Churchill cosyed up with Stalin.. sickening!

Id just like to point out, this is still a marching song for the bundeswher today with some small rewording, like the soviet national anthem is still the same tune as the Russian anthem.
So calling this a Nazi song is actually very incorrect and rather disrespectful to the Bundeswher, The German army and the German Nation.
Just thought i'd let you all know.
Have fun whistling this all day without fear!

Good lord. It's a tanker soldier's song, nothing more. Young men, many who probably hated the death around them as much as anyone and yet fought. They depended on each other to survive. To them Victory was how they would survive, not the crappy politics of those sending them to this hell. I just like this song. Just like aviators have High Flight. Worked a flight deck for the US Navy for 30 years and we never had anything like this.

Whether it storms or snows, whether the sun smiles upon us,
The day glowing hot, or the freezing of night.
Dusty are our faces, but joyful are our minds,
Yes, our minds
Our tank rushes forward in the storm.

I'm so sick of people saying shit like,"I am not promoting Nazism,just history"when they put something like this up.This video is an attempt to glorify the Wehrmacht of WWII.While I would not say they were all evil,but so many were.

@UnchainTheW0lv3s OK,you have a point about the name thing(I am a fan of the weapons and tactics of the WWII era German Army)but,these videos are not showing the Bundeswehr are they?No they only show the Wehrmacht crushing through Europe.The atrocities committed by the Wehrmacht are well known,so don't play dumb.
panzercat39 5 months ago
@panzercat39 The Americans, British, Soviets and Japanese also committed atrocities. I'm not defending or denying what the Nazi's did but it's not a black and white good vs. evil scenario. it was a total war and even civilian populations were valid targets for all sides. I don't think anyone who watched this video suddenly became a Nazi, you can see the same images on the History channel.
UnchainTheW0lv3s 5 months ago 2
@UnchainTheW0lv3s Yeah I suppose you are right,the average German soldier was probably no more or less evil than any other fighting man in WWII,on all sides.
panzercat39 5 months ago
@panzercat39 >" ...the Wehrmacht crushing through Europe.The atrocities committed by the Wehrmacht are well known" Yes, it's true. On the other hand, the atrocities committed by the opponents, mainly by the RAF who demolished several german cities without any kind of respect for the civilians, are also notable. The germans didn't do so cruel offenses against cities as mainly the Royal Air Force with its bombings for example in Köln where only the cathedral remained more or less in one piece.

@19881208 I guess you don't ascribe to "Bomber" Harris' statement that the Germans sowed the wind and would reap the whirlwind,eh?No,I do agree with you that the indiscriminate bombing of civilians(and thank you for not mentioning what the US did in Germany,we only bombed the shit out of the Japanese civilians,Germany we went after mainly military targets)is inherently evil. Especially since it did not work and probably prolonged the war.

The more i read and study, Germany picked the wrong enemy. Instead of the Jews, they should have attacked the Muslims. Then it would have been a war of defence, not a war of aggression. At least Europe wouldn't have become a enclave of a medieval philosophy.
