@stwica Same here, I read on Wilhelm, and he was a very modest man, he was arrogant, yes, but he did care for the German people, and like Charles of Austria, he was persuaded to go to war by his generals as well. The only reason Germany is noted to take blame rather than other countries, was because of their issuance of a "blank-cheque" for Austria-Hungary.
Wilhelm hat aus Eitelkeit Deutschland in den Krieg gerissen. Wenn er sich nur hätte verteidigen wollen, warum wurde dann nicht einfach nur ein Grenzübertritt der "gegenerischen" Truppen verhindert? Der Krieg fand aber hauptsächlich auf französischem Boden statt.
Ja und die Franzosen hätte unter keinen Umständen den Rhein überschritten. Weil sie ja, nicht wie wir deutsche, eben nicht blutrünstig und eben nicht nur Tiere sind. Komm! Immer diese Doppelmoral in Deutschland gegen das eigene Volk gerichetet. Eine Schande.
@LHStarAlliance Was heisst gegen das eigene Volk gerichtet? Komm mir nicht mit diesen Parolen. Jeder hat vor der eigenen Tür zu kehren! Und Fakt ist nun mal, das kein ausländischer Soldat deutschen Boden betreten hat. Das Kaiserreich hat allerdings zuerst neutrale Staaten (Holland/Belgien) betreten und dann Frankreich!
Die offizielle Historik muss ja zugeben, dass sich keiner im Vorfeld des Krieges den Frieden mehr gewünscht hat, und nur dank seiner Bemühungen waren die beiden Balkankriege lokal geblieben,
und doch hätte er, hätte er von den Vernichtungsplänen gegenüber Deutschland gewusst, die vor allen Dingen von England ausgingen, anders gehandelt.
Der Krieg war unvermeidlich, nichts konnte die Entente davon abbringen, aber man hätte mehr Partner etc. finden können.

If the US wopuld not have entered the war in 1917 the history of the seven yaer war would have repaeted itself and Wlhelm II would have been regarded today in the same manner as his ancestor Frederick II of Prussia, who was very much like him.

But T'm convinced that a German victoryin WW1 (and they were very close tot that in the spring of 1918!) would have avoided the coming to power of the nazi's and WW2..
@helmuthoorn The campaign slogan "he kept us out of war" handed the 1916 election to Woodrow Wilson. Teddy Roosevelt properly advised Wilson's secretary of state that Japan, not Germany, was the country to fear. Why was the Zimmermann Telegram sent? Germany knew Mexico could never beat the US with or without German aid.
We will defend ourselves until the last breath of man and horse. And we will insist this fight against a world of enemies. Germany was never overcome, if it was united.

Nations of people are like oceans of water, with very little free will, only the waves in them striking the borders of neighboring nations. A Kaiser or a Tsar had very little freedom of action, having to surf those waves or else find himself drowning beneath them. Europe and Russia were a Rube Goldberg machine militarily, or room full of standing dominoes, all pieces in place, impossible to stop once set in motion. The Kaiser surfed and survived. The Tsar tried peace and was killed for it.

Kaiser Wilhelm war der letzte Staatsmann der das deutsche Volk liebte.
Unter ihm hatten wir 28 Jahre Frieden, vermehrter Wohlstand für alle und das Land entwickelte sich zum fortschrittlichsten seiner Zeit, führend in Wissenschaft und Technik, Bildung. Politik usw. friedlich eroberten wir mit unseren Produkten die Welt. Wilhelm II schrieb bis zu letzt Friedensappelle an alle Beteiligten, doch sie lachten nur darüber. Von den Propagandisten und Geschichtsfälschern gebrandmarkt. R.I.P Wilhelm II
@terminator303 Ach und du denkst, dass die positive Situation anfangs des 19. Jhds. der Verdienst Kaiser Wilhelms II. war?
Nein, er hatte schlicht Glück, dass klügere Leute wie Bismarck vor ihm an der Macht waren und dein so gepriesenes Vorkriegsdeutschland entscheidend prägten.
Vielmehr ist auch Wilhelm II. (neben diversen anderen Staatschefs) der Ausbruch des Krieges durch seine engstirnige Außenpolitik zuzuschreiben. Er war eine echte Fehlbeseztung der Geschichte.
Die Situation Anfang des 19. Jahrhunderts kann man sicherlich nicht Kaiser Wilhelm auch noch in die Schuhe schieben. Aber auch Bismarck hatte damit wenig zu tun...
Ob Bismarck klüger war als Wilhelm II. sei dahin gestellt. Er war "anders" - hatte weniger Sinn für Demokratie und derartige Ideen.
@derralf03 Bismarck hatte mit der Vorkriegszeit durchaus etwas zutun, hatten seine Aktionen und Entscheidungen noch lange Nachwirkungen(siehe Sozialsystem, Kulturkampf,...).
Zudem wusste er, mit wem er sich anlegen konnte und mit wem nicht.
Er hatte nach 70/71 erkannt, dass man nun zurückhaltendere, friedliche Außenpolitik machen müsse ("Das Deutsche Reich ist saturiert."). Dass Wilhelm II. Bismarcks ausgeklügeltes Bündnissystem zunichte machte, verdeutlicht Bismarcks geistliche Überlegenheit.
Was hat denn die Vorkriegszeit Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts mit den Zuständen Anfang des 19. Jahrhunderts zu tun? Geschichte ist i.d.R. nicht so eindimensional wie Du sie hier darstellst. Weder war Bismarck ein genialer Heiliger - noch war Wilhelm II. ein dämlicher Idiot. Ersterer hat einige geschickte Schachzüge gestartet um (allerdings zum Preis von drei Kriegen) die deutsche Teil-Einigung zu erreichen - letzterer ist in einen schrecklichen Krieg hineingeschlittert.
@derralf03 Ja sorry, gemeint war natürlich "Anfangs des 20. Jahrhunderts". Immer diese zahlendreher -.-
Und zum anderen: Leider reichen die hier verfügbaren 400 Wörter nicht aus, um Zusammenhänge oder Charaktere ausführlich zu beschreiben. Trotzdem bleibe ich bei meiner Grundaussage, dass zwischen Bismarck und Wilhelm II. aus heutiger Sicht eine ordentliche intellektuelle Kluft prangte.
Das mag plakativ und eindimensional klingen (Platz wird knapp), ist aber korrekter als die Wilhelm Verehrung.
Kaiser Wilhelm war der letzte Staatsmann der das deutsche Volk liebte.

weil den kannste gleich dahin gehen wo du willst doch bleib nicht hier...nur weil ein "ÖSTERREICHER" (Adolf H.) den krieg wollte sind nicht gleich alle stolzen deutschen Nazis..denk mal drüber nach was du sagts weil wegen sowas kann man auch angezeigt werden.
@asilaydian staufenberg war ein nazi! er diente im krieg gegen polen und befürwortete sogar den Krieg (zunächst)! Den holocaust und ähnliche Schandtaten tolerierte er nicht! Nazi = Nationalsozialist!
@asilaydian jaja das mag sein, sonst hätte er die bombe bestimmt nicht unter den planungstisch gelegt wenn er nicht gegen ihn gewesen wäre. aber es heißt viel mehr ein nazi zu sein als nur dem "führer" zu folgen!
@NSBM74 Hm. Woher weißt du denn, dass es den Holocaust gab? Durch Bilder und Erzählungen, richtig? Und von wem kamen diese? Von den Alliierten, richtig. Die wollten nach dem Krieg ein schwaches Deutschland, wie ja bekannt. Made in Germany sollte ein Fluch werden, die Deutschen haben daraus einen Segen gemacht.
Du weißt nicht wirklich, ob es den Holocaust gab, ich auch nicht, ich gehe aber nicht so weit zu sage, dass es ihn nie gegeben hat.
@AntiD0itsch Das ist so wie es das steht, gequirlte Scheisse. Genauso thumbe, verblödete und Schwarz-weiss denkende Scheisse, wie der Dreck mit dem die braunen Horden um sich werfen.
WW1 is a very misunderstood war. Mr. Wilhelm was a world away from the craziness of Hitler. Germany had a functioning democracy at the time. The treaty of versailles was a huge mistake, it effectively destroyed the rather spectacular country of Germany. But equally, I cannot blame George Clemenceu for his actions during the negotiations.
@GhostXoP No, that was Hitler, you ignorant dumbass. How low is your IQ? I don't know what the fuck the second part of your comment meant, since without Stalin and soviet troops during WW2 your country would have been invaded and destroyed by Hitler.
@GhostXoP No, I'm not angry. In fact, I'm laughing, because your original comment says a lot about how low your IQ is. You clearly don't know anything about history, so PLEASE continue making ignorant comments. It's like a comedy club.
@ToaJoe lol your lieing, because if you werent mad, you wouldnt care to respond. You try to make me feel bad but it isnt working, so dumb ass you will have to try harder.
Continue being pissy, i dont care what you think. To me this is all funny :)
@GhostXoP Oh, please do. Please make more brilliantly stupid comments for me and everyone else to laugh at. Use this as a starting line: "thank god america saved the world during ww1!" or "thank god wilhlem wasnt allowed to kill more jews!"
@GhostXoP Everyone's laughing at me... why? Everything I said here is 100% factual. You, on the other hand, confused Hitler with Wilhelm II. WTF? That takes a huge amount of stupidity, sonny.
@GhostXoP I would like to know why people are laughing at me? Please, I'm interested. Because everything I've said is 100% true. You on the other hand demonstrated that you are a complete and utter D grade dumbass who knows nothing about history. It's a bit mean, but I love laughing at retards like you. Dumbasses can't understand why people are laughing at them, so they presume that the laughter is not aimed at them, and subsequently join in.
@ToaJoe Lol your so pissy because were still laughing at you. yes, this makes me a d student?i happen to have a 91 in the course at the moment. along with the other a's and b's im pulling off. so you are challenging my intelect? lol i can PROVE that i know a whole hell of alot more then you, and what, you know what happened yesterday? who gives a shit lol. i dont care anyway,were just here to piss you off,and like the "smart" student you are,its working.be mature,calm the fuck down and ignore me
@GhostXoP Meh, I'm not bothered anymore because I prefer talking to people who have an higher than average IQ and possess the ability to spell.
Am I challenging your intellect? YES. Please, enlighten me. Why is it that you mistook Wilhlem II for Adolf Hitler, yet you are a genius at history? I want to know :-)
@Windsor1able Yes, very true. The first world war was all nonsense and a cultural disaster, too. The citizens of Europe were unaware how much a fight among them will weaken their position on the entire globe.
@stwica Finally it's worth pointing out that there is nothing inherently German about nazi crimes, in fact many other countries have done similar things (Russia, China, Bosnian Serbs etc...) and no country is immune from it. In fact those living in the US should be wary of the erosion of civil liberties and the debasement of american democracy in recent years.
To illustrate the nazi potential in all of us, research Zimbardo's Stanford prison and Milgram's obedience to authority experiments.
@stwica But evidently the Germans = Nazis equation has taken root. It's worth noting that despite being grossly inaccurate, it might have done some good and allowed Germany to rehabilitate itself through collective responsability.
One other common confusion is between the Wehrmacht, Germany's regular army and the SS, the nazi secret police which had a military wing, the Waffen SS. The Wehrmacht was never involved in war crimes or management of the camps. Those were Waffen SS and SS-TV jobs.
@stwica No problem. I think the issue is confusion between a nation and an ideology. Germany is a nation, the nazis were members of a political party and in fact there were non german nazis around the world although they are usually refered to as fascists, the name of the broad ideology. I believe fascism is inherently evil while the Germans are who they are, the people of that country. The equation Germans = Nazis was never true even during WW2 as only 3%-12% were nazis during the 33-45 period.
Thank you, blackeneer. Actually, I think it was the enemies of Austria who started the war over Bosnia. They had no idea what they were doing. Germany was just a victim of the alliance system. (But Germany should have kept out of Belgium and avoided antagonizing the Americans. The war would have ended differently.)
@scottadler To the German People, since the creation of the Reich it have been now 43 years (part i dont understand is following) ... to stay in piece, and promote our strong development. But our enemies envy our success. Every open, and covered hostility we have endured, because we know of our responsibility and strength. But now, they try to humble us. They want us, to watch with folded arms, while our enemys prepare for malicious attack.
@scottadler Russia did not start the war, but was simply an ally of an country that did. Same as Britain and France. I agree with you about the Kaiser. The only thing he did was to agree to an Duel Alliance, yet he got stuck with all war reparations and trouble along with it. My relative fought in the kaiser's army, and I'm proud of it.
@stwica Don't know what to say since you way off the mark! I love Germany. Apart from my home country (France) and the country where I live (UK), it's the country I know the most about. I've been there 15 times, I speak the language (3rd language style). I have a germanic name, I was born in a very Germanophile family, my father speaks fluent german and used to send me to Germany every year when I was a kid. I have many german friends and had a german girlfriend for 10 yrs. That'll do I think
Wilhelm was brought up bilingual and was said to be unaware of whether he was speaking German or English. His accent is of interest here: his grandmother was Queen Victoria, who was also bilingual in the same way. His father Friedrich Wilhelm III and the Queen might have sounded much like this. It's as close as we will ever get.
@stwica Really? By 1914 the German Empire was essentially a military dictatorship run by Hindenburg and Ludendorff which persecuted minorities. The Kaiser was either a royal idiot or extremely naive, probably the latter.
Help Germany in WW2? You mean help the country that exterminated millions of people in concentration camps and invaded, raped and destroyed the whole of Europe as well as denying freedom to everyone? Really??? Do you wanna give Hitler a Nobel Peace prize also?
@BlunderCity My relative was in the Kaiser's army in ww1, and I'm proud of it. I happen to disagree with you. The goverment was not a dictatorship, nor did they wreak havoc on Europe as Hitler's regime did. The Kaiser was inexperienced, but he ruled his country better than Nicholas II. Contrary to popular opinion, Kaiser Wilhelm was not a war lord and did not seek a war. Get your facts straight.
@stwica indeed... It was simply a chain reaction... i think that The terrorist group "black hand" never intended to start a WW1... They just wanted to have Bosnia free...
@stwica On youre disscusion with this Nibple... If we go really deep into the subject of who caused the war we can see that the "guilty one" was not EXACTLY germany, not really Gavrilo princip either (although he shot Ferdinand) But none the less... The SANDWICH. Know what i mean?
Many of these posts reflect massively ignorant and historically-blind perspectives. Germany has become significantly wealthier under democracy as it ever could hope to achieve under its various autocratic regimes. Prior to 1949 Germany was in many ways economically backward, but it is now the 3rd largest world economy AND a peaceful member of Europe and the international community. Those who long for a Germany of old are fools.
In 1914 Germany was the most powerful industrial nation in Europe. And as we know Europe was the center of world powers so Germany was essentially also the most powerful industrial nation in the world. Imperial Germany was leader in scientific progress and because of that 1/3 of nobel prizes went tot Imperial German scientists for scientific achievements. Not to mention Germany had the most powerful army and one of the most powerful fleet in the entire world.
@gcb34399 This is true, but Monarchic Germany (the 2nd Reich to be more accurate) was great in industrialization, we must not forget that, even though as it is commonly known, military funds were high within Germany. Economic crisis only really came about after Hindenburg and Ludendorff started their unofficial military dictatorship of Germany, for there was much deprived from citizens for soldiers in the field, and the spending on the Ottomans to slow down their declining rate.
@LtBuckCompton Balls, Bismark was the one who didn't want war, Wilhelm II was an ignorant fool who thought that war with France would mean a large colonial empire. He also tried to compete with Britian's navy. These were personal ambitions of his. He did have a large role in starting the war.
@TheLiberalKnight This is untrue from how I read it in books, but each book has its own story, and this is still in debate. Yes Wilhelm II made movements towards war such as the Naval Bills and the expansion of it. And Bismarck? Maybe he didn't want a World War, but he sure did initiate some wars. It is said that Bismarck warned Wilhelm of a War emerging in the Balkans 20 years after his death (both the Balkan War ans WWI) But Wilhelm is said like Charles to have been pressured by generals.
@LtBuckCompton Bismark was careful not to offend Britain or compete with the British navy. Wilhelm threw that out of the window, he did everything in his power to rival British naval power, which was offensive to a country that depended on naval power for it's very survival. It was Wilhelm who had the ultimate say in foreign affairs, not parliament. He wanted a war with France in order to secure German colonies around the globe.
How many times has Germany been attacked by the french during its history. War is never one sided. Greatest tragedy of all this was that it created the USSR.
Verdammt, wir hätten damals einen kreuzer weniger bauen sollen, dafür aber aus dem material und der energie ein paar tausend maschinengewehre und handgranaten mehr! Lang lebe Preußen!
Damals ist man in den Krieg gezogen, und hat gejubelt. Heute vermag es kaum ein Deutscher mehr auf die Straße zu gehen um zu protestieren, gegen diese deutschlandfeindliche Brut im Reichstag!
An das patriotische, deutsche Volk! Unser Land ist dem Untergang geweiht, wenn wir weiter mit verschränkten Armen auf die Untaten der Regierung sehen. Darum auf! zu den Waffen! Jedes Schwanken, jedes Zögern wäre Verrat am Vaterlande!
I'm a healthy aryan male from the U.S.A. I'm looking for a healthy and buxom aryan female from virtually anywhere. I'd prefer a German who is fluent in English.
Wonder how many of these guys made it to Paris 20 years latter. Hitler and Amann were at least few who fought against the french in WW1 but never got to see Paris.
Paris was a great disappointment to Adolf. Interesting fact is that many french WW1 "heroes" were friends with some high-ranking nazis like for example Rene Fonck who was a friend of Göring and Udet.

His biggest mistake was that he let the jews serve in the army and gave them political and economic rights. He should have treated them like his cousin the Tsar did in Russia.

Nations of people are like oceans of water, with very little free will, only the waves in them striking the borders of neighboring nations. A Kaiser or a Tsar had very little freedom of action, having to surf those waves or else find himself drowning beneath them. Europe and Russia were a Rube Goldberg machine militarily, or room full of standing dominoes, all pieces in place, impossible to stop once set in motion. The Kaiser surfed and survived. The Tsar tried peace and was killed for it.

@terminator303 Ach und du denkst, dass die positive Situation anfangs des 19. Jhds. der Verdienst Kaiser Wilhelms II. war?
Nein, er hatte schlicht Glück, dass klügere Leute wie Bismarck vor ihm an der Macht waren und dein so gepriesenes Vorkriegsdeutschland entscheidend prägten.
Vielmehr ist auch Wilhelm II. (neben diversen anderen Staatschefs) der Ausbruch des Krieges durch seine engstirnige Außenpolitik zuzuschreiben. Er war eine echte Fehlbeseztung der Geschichte.

@zumgruenenbaum
Die Situation Anfang des 19. Jahrhunderts kann man sicherlich nicht Kaiser Wilhelm auch noch in die Schuhe schieben. Aber auch Bismarck hatte damit wenig zu tun...
Ob Bismarck klüger war als Wilhelm II. sei dahin gestellt. Er war "anders" - hatte weniger Sinn für Demokratie und derartige Ideen.
derralf03 9 months ago
@derralf03 Bismarck hatte mit der Vorkriegszeit durchaus etwas zutun, hatten seine Aktionen und Entscheidungen noch lange Nachwirkungen(siehe Sozialsystem, Kulturkampf,...).
Zudem wusste er, mit wem er sich anlegen konnte und mit wem nicht.
Er hatte nach 70/71 erkannt, dass man nun zurückhaltendere, friedliche Außenpolitik machen müsse ("Das Deutsche Reich ist saturiert."). Dass Wilhelm II. Bismarcks ausgeklügeltes Bündnissystem zunichte machte, verdeutlicht Bismarcks geistliche Überlegenheit.

Was hat denn die Vorkriegszeit Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts mit den Zuständen Anfang des 19. Jahrhunderts zu tun? Geschichte ist i.d.R. nicht so eindimensional wie Du sie hier darstellst. Weder war Bismarck ein genialer Heiliger - noch war Wilhelm II. ein dämlicher Idiot. Ersterer hat einige geschickte Schachzüge gestartet um (allerdings zum Preis von drei Kriegen) die deutsche Teil-Einigung zu erreichen - letzterer ist in einen schrecklichen Krieg hineingeschlittert.

@derralf03 Ja sorry, gemeint war natürlich "Anfangs des 20. Jahrhunderts". Immer diese zahlendreher -.-
Und zum anderen: Leider reichen die hier verfügbaren 400 Wörter nicht aus, um Zusammenhänge oder Charaktere ausführlich zu beschreiben. Trotzdem bleibe ich bei meiner Grundaussage, dass zwischen Bismarck und Wilhelm II. aus heutiger Sicht eine ordentliche intellektuelle Kluft prangte.
Das mag plakativ und eindimensional klingen (Platz wird knapp), ist aber korrekter als die Wilhelm Verehrung.

@stwica Finally it's worth pointing out that there is nothing inherently German about nazi crimes, in fact many other countries have done similar things (Russia, China, Bosnian Serbs etc...) and no country is immune from it. In fact those living in the US should be wary of the erosion of civil liberties and the debasement of american democracy in recent years.
To illustrate the nazi potential in all of us, research Zimbardo's Stanford prison and Milgram's obedience to authority experiments.
BlunderCity 1 year ago
@stwica But evidently the Germans = Nazis equation has taken root. It's worth noting that despite being grossly inaccurate, it might have done some good and allowed Germany to rehabilitate itself through collective responsability.
One other common confusion is between the Wehrmacht, Germany's regular army and the SS, the nazi secret police which had a military wing, the Waffen SS. The Wehrmacht was never involved in war crimes or management of the camps. Those were Waffen SS and SS-TV jobs.
BlunderCity 1 year ago
@stwica No problem. I think the issue is confusion between a nation and an ideology. Germany is a nation, the nazis were members of a political party and in fact there were non german nazis around the world although they are usually refered to as fascists, the name of the broad ideology. I believe fascism is inherently evil while the Germans are who they are, the people of that country. The equation Germans = Nazis was never true even during WW2 as only 3%-12% were nazis during the 33-45 period.

Wilhelm was brought up bilingual and was said to be unaware of whether he was speaking German or English. His accent is of interest here: his grandmother was Queen Victoria, who was also bilingual in the same way. His father Friedrich Wilhelm III and the Queen might have sounded much like this. It's as close as we will ever get.

@stwica Really? By 1914 the German Empire was essentially a military dictatorship run by Hindenburg and Ludendorff which persecuted minorities. The Kaiser was either a royal idiot or extremely naive, probably the latter.

Many of these posts reflect massively ignorant and historically-blind perspectives. Germany has become significantly wealthier under democracy as it ever could hope to achieve under its various autocratic regimes. Prior to 1949 Germany was in many ways economically backward, but it is now the 3rd largest world economy AND a peaceful member of Europe and the international community. Those who long for a Germany of old are fools.

In 1914 Germany was the most powerful industrial nation in Europe. And as we know Europe was the center of world powers so Germany was essentially also the most powerful industrial nation in the world. Imperial Germany was leader in scientific progress and because of that 1/3 of nobel prizes went tot Imperial German scientists for scientific achievements. Not to mention Germany had the most powerful army and one of the most powerful fleet in the entire world.

@gcb34399 This is true, but Monarchic Germany (the 2nd Reich to be more accurate) was great in industrialization, we must not forget that, even though as it is commonly known, military funds were high within Germany. Economic crisis only really came about after Hindenburg and Ludendorff started their unofficial military dictatorship of Germany, for there was much deprived from citizens for soldiers in the field, and the spending on the Ottomans to slow down their declining rate.

@TheLiberalKnight This is untrue from how I read it in books, but each book has its own story, and this is still in debate. Yes Wilhelm II made movements towards war such as the Naval Bills and the expansion of it. And Bismarck? Maybe he didn't want a World War, but he sure did initiate some wars. It is said that Bismarck warned Wilhelm of a War emerging in the Balkans 20 years after his death (both the Balkan War ans WWI) But Wilhelm is said like Charles to have been pressured by generals.

@LtBuckCompton Bismark was careful not to offend Britain or compete with the British navy. Wilhelm threw that out of the window, he did everything in his power to rival British naval power, which was offensive to a country that depended on naval power for it's very survival. It was Wilhelm who had the ultimate say in foreign affairs, not parliament. He wanted a war with France in order to secure German colonies around the globe.
