Dan D thats good to hear

we ve got Madonna and Michael Jackson too. they re not pilots though. they live in the getto
We got the moves baby 😂
As a romanian watching this at the start of 2022, it hits different now
False: Romania was NEVER occupied by the Germans. Romania's government became fascist due to the Iron Guard and shared Hitler's viewpoint on ultra-nationalism and anti-semitism. They also were the most active participant from the beginning of Operation Barbarossa all the way to Stalingrad in collusion with Germany. Over half a million Romanian soldiers fought side by side with the Germans against the Soviet Union.
I like vice news but they need to get their facts right - there are a number of countries that colluded with Germany during WWII including Finland, Albania, Hungary, and Bulgaria. For God's sake even the Swedish government helped supply Germany's iron ore import even though they never participated in any military campaigns.
Source: Wikipedia
I agree. People shouldnt assume that everyone not actually Nazi Germany under ww2 were "victims" of them. For example Sweden. Nobody asks why Norway, were the navel export ports for the iron ore where, was invaded, but the actual ore mining nation, aka Sweden, wasnt? Why wouldnt Hitler invade Sweden who produced a strategic resource that without, would have gimped all hes plans unless... Exactly.
Right, never occupied, but they were fascist only a short time, Iron Guard were routed b Antonescu, who was a military dictator with anti semitic tendencies but not a proper fascist
In 1940, one year before Barbarossa, after Ribbentrop-Molotov Pact, Soviet Union ocuppied historycal Romanian provinces Basarabia and Herta County (now Moldavia Republic) and Northern Bucovina (present in Ukraine). Also, Hungary ocuppied North-Western of Romania, Ardeal-Transylvania. So, in that moment, alliance with Germany and war against Red Army was first and only option to recover a part of the ancient Romanian's realms: teritorries beyond Prut river, to Nistru river. Sorry my English, I'm just an greenhorn...
yes it was. in 1916 Bucharest was occupied by the Central Forces along with most of western and southern Romaina. The goverrnment and the king had to retreat to Iasi which became the new capital of Romania until the occupation ended. Romania was never occupied by the russians though
OQ Critic Yes! Romania was attacked by Soviet Russia! This is the main reason why from a neutral state like Switzerland they become an allied state for Germany in WWII....
7:03 Ploiesti. That word has sent a shiver down many a US Airman's back
7:58 Lmao stop this man. That hairdo and his moves are legendary.
jon snow this man is like jesus he gonna reborn
White Marble lol at that guy, after the moon walk he's talking about games, blackhawk down and game of thrones
White Marble
they have ultra nerds in their military just like us, dope
JenkinsHTTK you right, i even know marines friends who are star wars/trek fans. nerd culture is everywhere
White Marble hey can you not say his name in vain thanks
what about jon snow, the channel 4 news presenter?
I only wanted to watch about the Romanians and saudis. Disappointed 😔
This is fascinating content, great work VICE.
After the Russians occupied Romania there was Radio Free Europe listened in Romania that said that the Americans will come and help against the Russians - a resistance was formed that fought and disrupted the occupation for almost 20 years waiting for help from the West which ended up never coming. From the onset of the relations between the Russians and the Romanians, Romania was invaded on upwards of 12 occasions. This, occupations of Bassarabia and other incidents led to a huge distrust towards Russia. There were times and things that could have improved the relations, but such things never happened so it ended up with this modern stance of relations between Russia and Romania.
Habar nu aveam despre asta. Interesant.
Yeah man that Romanian commander was pretty cool, down to earth, it's nice to see soldiers with humanity still in them.
Romania was not occupied by German. Romania join axis coalition and fighter against soviet union
Then, when they realized the gig was up, switched sides and join the Soviets to avoid occupation.
Yeah, keep thinking that... lol.
I know it's already an old comment but i want to mention that we we're kind of forced to join the axis,
because otherwise we would have been invaded like most of the europe at that time !
Wrong. They basically didn't have a choice. And they didn't switch sides when the "jig was up" it was because of a coup by King Michael against the fascist dictator that took over. It shortened the war by aproximatly 6 months. People are so ignorant smh
"I might have to declare martial law throughout the country to protect the people" man nobody saw that coming at aaaaaaaaaall
Bush
This was my favourite episode by Vice News
So there's like a 100% chance that Romanian fighter pilot torrented game of thrones lol
YandJob _ At least we allocate 2% to nato :p
this was pretty good, you should have voice translation so I could listen this like a postcast, I bet that give you more views
Love how you have someone from the U.K talking about free speech lol
Better than having someone from the usa do it.
Also that pilot is a legend.
romania was a die hard axis country, love how you left that out, not saying that is a bad or good thing but the impartial truth is flooding the world
Not true at all. It was a democratic country, but as the axis and the comintern grew, and the ussr started threatening romania, they needed to pick a side, and belived choosing the axis would have better results. Romania then switched sides when it was able, and had instilled a constitutional monarchy which meant it was democratic but had a king for show. Then, later a communist party became popular, and was voted for. It was never invaded and part of the ussr or the axis, it simply played sides very well, hence why romania still exists today.
I have to note that Romania wasn't occupied by Germans in 1942, but then Romania was an Axis country, so it was an ally of the Germans. That's the reason the americans bombed Romania. But Romania was occupied by Germans in 1917, during WWI, when at that time it was allied with Russia, and in Russia the revolution started and it got out of the war and Romania was left alone to fight the Germans. Romania is well knowing for switching sides, because it had no true allies but it benefited from the conflict of the neighboring empires.
It was Austrians in WW1 that ocupied most of Romania at the time. 90% of the forces were Austrian / Hungarian. Germany had a few divisions but they weren't the bulk of the army
I AM A AVID LOVER OF VICE NEWS SUCH A GREAT NEWS CHANNEL WITH SO MANY CONTENTS FROM VARIOUS COUNTRIES

Eastern Europe stands with America. Thank you for protecting our borders.
Slashplite Despite what our moronic president says, the American people and the vast majority of their government respects and appreciates our NATO allies. The US will act in accordance to article 5 of the NATO charter and stand with its Eastern European allies. We got yer back bro.
Slashplite yeah no problem -
Slashplite
We Canadians stand with you as well. If Russia were to declare war, expect us Canadians to fight alongside our NATO allies.

Nice thing about going to comic con in Saudi Arabia as women, is you are all ready in ninja cosplay.
After that opening I keep expecting the Game of Thrones theme to start playing.

Lithuania asked for a PERMANENT A-10 squadrons!!!! IM GOING

Haha That Jon Snow reference my the Romanian pilot fucking legend
That newspaper they says we love MCR reminds me of the band. They probably should change that abbreviation to something else.

I did not know defenestration was still common among gentlemen.
Body slammed 😂😂😂 you came across the wrong one.
Damn, I opened this video up and thought I has accidentally tuned into another episode of the sopranos
DANIEL 'TOMCAT' MOISE : WHAT A LEGEND!!!!!
Didn't realize there are less than 700k voters in Montana, such a huge and beautiful state
4:45 ''liberated threw evolution'', lol. Vice geniuses at work.
They say "liberated through revolution clean your ears.
The Prince looks like he might be a friend of Dorothy.
In regards to the declaration of martial law.. it simply means that firearms is officially illegal in the Philippines.. consider Abu Sayyaf or FARC..
may 25th, wtf is the point of uploading this 10 days later?
It's an in depth recap of news stories, they don't intend for you to be getting your news from this.
Charmanderaznable No, it is because it is broadcasted on HBO first then later uploaded to UA-cam.
NEVER should you prevent someone from speaking, not through protesters and not through speakers. That's censorship !!!
MAD respect for you Prince Fahad... hope you'll get more support.
The jon snow pilot is my hero
He looks exactly like the guy who gets slammed and also gets his glasses broken
so Latifa doesnt have a right drive a car yet lmao
Somehow Trumps speech at the NATO meeting sounded like a Mafia Boss. "A nice country you have there. You should better pay your dues,... for your protection. Who knows what might happen to your country if you don't."
@collin ohlinger
And what does that mean? Breaking some Kneecaps perhaps?
collin ohlinger
I thought we already doing it, by supporting the US in their faked wars to spread shitty unstable democracies and fatty burgers around the world
collin ohlinger
Well you already leaving 90% of all dictators in the world alone. But you should especially leave those alone that govern over minority groups that hate each other so much, that they cant wait for their state to fall appart, to finally being able to murder each other.
collin ohlinger No we play nice with them and use their countries for our air bases and observation posts. Take some countries in Sub Saharan Africa for example. Google them.
I'm guessing there's not going to be a concert for the Mosul people?
One question.. is Yemen officially a part of the Coalition.. and what is their commitment to end conflicts..
Vice, I know checking basic history is difficult, but Romania was not liberated from "Russians" in 1989. Dictator Nicolae Ceausescu cut all ties with the USSR in the 1970's so the only thing Romanians were being liberated from in 1989 was their own dictator.
charge rate garage doctrine elementary gesture prepare background ranch ban
the music at 2:40 sends shivers down my spine
this movie drips with bias, but i like it
no video of the 'body slam'? the way that report talks about freedom of speech, eecks with 'i got in his face because of the constitution'
"only people calling: 'reporters asking dumb questions'" i think secretary of state implied something here
calling BS on the guy at 21min. if people are saying N word all night at bars then record it, but he doesn't because it's not happening.
Great choice of ambiguity given the saudi environment.
"Sociology Major" lol
interrupting someones speech isnt free speech, its just you disrupting the peace
So this guys experiences people saying the N-word at bars, therefore he should be able to disturb and shut down any event where he doesn't agree with the speaker. It seems that it is not just the right that has gone nuts in America.
hisredrighthand Yeah, the right is imploding and the left is becoming authoritarian. It's especially bad at liberal arts colleges, the far left students are violently protesting anybody THEY perceive as enemies. They have no idea how much damage they are doing to their own society
I might not like trump in general ,but that scene with him pushing past the other officials was pretty cool.
who's this guy? 0:15
21:11 "You Have to deal with people saying the n-word at bars every night?" Is it possible it's because oh I don't know....FUCKING DRUNK?!!!!
May and Likely in almost every statement used. Give us the facts not the may happen or likely will happen...
2:37-2:42...PRICELESS
what precaution can you take on an airstrike? its a damn airstrike meant to kill it's target
GamingTV i meant tje fact they criticize the us and it's airstrike. I know how to react to indirect fire. btw lay flat not curled up into a ball. gives you a lower profile from shrapnel
The worst thing that could happen when an armed rebellion takes place is people to be stuck in their cars fleeing whilst standing still in traffic. where are "the trained evacuation teams" leading people out to defensible positions; a training course that could be taught to the students in less than two hours.
WWI
Romania entered the war at a time of strong crisis for the Entente, drawing upon itself numerous enemy forces, fighting on a very long battlefront and having to change its initial campaign plan permanently. But in spite of the human, material and military efforts made by the Central Powers throughout this period, they failed to achieve their fundamental political and strategic goal to defeat Romania and knock it out of the war. Despite heavy casualties, some 250,000 men (almost one third of the manpower mobilized in August 1916) compared to 105,000 Central Power casualties (including 60,000 Germans),[73] and losses of combat material, the Romanian army was still a force taken into consideration by allies and enemies alike and capable of offering resistance to further attacks. Part of the population moved to the free territory, together with the Romanian government, royal court and public authorities, which relocated to Iași. Therefore, the Kingdom of Romania continued to exercise the attributes of an independent and sovereign state, allied to the Entente powers.
WWII
Romania was NOT occupied by Nazi Germany!
Romania officially joined the Axis powers on 23 November 1940. As a member of the Axis, Romania joined the invasion of the Soviet Union on 22 June 1941, providing equipment and oil to Nazi Germany as well as committing more troops to the Eastern Front than all the other allies of Germany combined. Romanian forces played a large role during fighting in Ukraine, Bessarabia, Stalingrad and elsewhere.
According to historian and author Mark Axworthy, the second Axis army in Europe, arguably, belonged to Romania, though some would dispute this, regarding the Italian army as more significant.
At least if Milo Yiannopoulos did a talk in Wisconsin, he could finish his talk without being heckled at by SJWs.
if you want to disturb someone who is speaking on the stage just because your opinions conflict, get the hell out instead of staying in the hall
1:00
does that look like a crowded city to you? it's a fucking warzone ffs
"Any means necessary" is something that modern westerns will never understand.
Wow, this is old news.
Thank you for standing with us as we have stood with you in Iraq and Afghanistan. Keep an eye on Romanians President Iohannis visit to the White House next Friday.
The guy at 23:00 - If you want outsiders to take you seriously you can't resort to saying "Oh boohoo!" about your opponents. You sound like a middle schooler.
Damn america needs more debate clubs
''I have to deal with people saying the N-word''
I know man, I feel you. I tear up when people call me white boy it's awful I can't take it anymore we need to regulate speech so no one can ever say white boy again and hurt me
Brandon Toad - OP is obviously being sarcastic.
Have some more milk
john mangele Yea, come back to me when you can form a sentence
Douglas Ballantine shut up white boy
Douglas Ballantine obviously your ignorant to the fact that the N word is way more controversial than white boy. Not even comparable rofl
Let me correct a small mistake it's not the whole mindanao island that is under combat but rather a small city in the region of ARMM(Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao) but the president declared martial law in the whole island to prevent further attempts of maute sympathizers to wreak havoc on the whole island I know this because I'm a resident of Butuan City in Caraga Region which is 8-10 hours i think from Marawi City. There are alot of opposition(people from luzon/ liberal party supporters) to the decision of the president to declare martial law on the whole island of mindanao but we residents of mindanao feel so secured because there is a lot of police & military officers in the streets
I thought the free speech bill piece was unbiased and fair. good job vice
LMFAO....COMIC CON, ???????? OK ILL BE A NINJA ELF ;)))))))))
I wish VICE would stop being so biased and start showing both sides of the story, like they used to.
No nonsense president Duterte, id hate to be his son coming home late one night....
I often admire American's strategy of fighting terror away from the homeland
Thank You Vice for NOT doing the lame ass ending where you have people listen to samples of music and give their opinion on it. That shit is fucking stupid.
Instead of drowning the speaker out. Make another speaker of your own on the same night or boycott the speaker or both. but both sides should get right to speak. Thwarting another's speach is not protected by the first amendment.
27:01 Yah! Those racist Care Bears don't look like me either!!! WTF? I feel your pain Rozan Ahmed.
2 guys on top of a building and they have to level the whole fucking thing!? This is why they need American boots on the ground.
I always asked myself what would happen if two presidents start brawling. I mean if the guy trump pushed away would've swung two hooks at him...
didn't know vice leaned left? what a shame. used to think you guys are unbiased news outlet
Queen Latifa looks way different!
That first story shouldnt be a throw away. That Us bombing made 105 families now have potentional terrorist members. for 2 guys we made hundreds of potent revenge filled enemies. And All we got to say for it is "aw well"
I'm glad all these Eastern countries are happy USA are there.we kinda let them down we were just too far stretched n beat after saving 2 of the worlds biggest" super powers" in WW1 and WW2 .we all know that was a mistake .
Uhhh what? You where not stretched during world war 1 or 2 at all. World war II was the entire reason America got out of the great depression you guys were ahead of everything but you just got lazy
show!
Good luck
22:10 Well, some would disagree with you. Some would think that people who again have a political opinion different than their own deserve to be punched in the face! No matter how you look at it, it's assault.
that Philipino president too gangster. "you will die"
Civilians don't understand that russia would get rocked in a conventional conflict with the united states or nato. Russia realizes this, and that is why tactical nuclear weapons are a normal feature of their war doctrine. So a conventional war with russia could very quickly escalate into a nuclear conflict.
Mahia NZ,any one been there?🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿
I have,guess how many Moslems live in Mahia?0 🇳🇿☮
