The American Generals behaved like petulant children and their refusal to listen to the British cost thousands of USA troops lives in WW11. At Guadacanal their anti aircraft defences shot down more of their own planes than they did of the Japanese . In Vietnam I know the NZ troops soon learnt to ignore American intelligence reports because often the USA patrols would go a short distance from their base and on return would report no vietcong in the area they were supposed to patrol. The viet cong could smell them coming - they smoked both cigarettes and pot when on patrol and were very noisy.

I think you’ll find that the battles starting in Sicily and moving onto Italy started the major downfall of the German Army. The allied landings there by the UK, US, France, New Zealand, Australia, Poland and India pushed the Germans completely out of Italy, causing Italy to change sides and the Germans to pour troops into Italy by the thousands. This gave the Russians much needed breathing space to recover (the Russian losses were the greatest in the war - they went through hell) and move forward beginning their chase of the Nazi’s through Poland and through the East. The Germans were absolutely horrified to realise that Russia had so many more troops than them, as well as a supply chain that was inexhaustible at that point - every Russian worked like crazy to keep their army going and to overpower the Germans completely, which they succeeded in doing. In the West, the allies had COMPLETE air superiority in Italy and the Germans could do nothing but begin to fall back with ever increasing losses. Don’t get me wrong, the allies suffered huge losses in Italy but enough German troops were held up there that it made the D Day Normandy landings possible in June and allowed the allies to liberate France and begin their chase of the Germans from the West. Stalingrad was one poor decision in a long list of poor decisions by Hitler as Commander of the German Army but it wasn’t the decisive battle, just one of THE most horrific…

Around half of soviet soldiers losses (not "russians") were due to the fact that nazis killed around 60% of soviet soldier who surrendered, especially the millions captured in 1941
No drones, no satellites, and ... though they were extant, no spies present where intelligence could be gotten. Also, everybody thought that the last German forces would dedicate all that was left to slowing the Soviets.

So IKE, against the advice and wishes of Churchill decided that Berlin was no longer an objective of the US, sent a note to Stalin and gave him the go ahead to deal with Berlin himself. What was the outcome? Answer, A divided Berlin, East & West, a divided Germany, East and West. Then, years of a Cold War between the West and Soviet Union.
Hitler had this problem: he always underestimated the enemy. In fact, not just him, his top brass also had this strategic habit of underestimating the enemy. They broke their face.
Because Warsaw and Leningrad happened in the course of war, when it was about winning or losing. Not some days before the end for the purpose of killing and destructing. See Hiroshima and Nagasaky.
@@henryseidel5469 this is another myth. A war ends when there is a SURRENDER. Germans and Japanese have been losing for years … why they didn’t stop and kept returning fire? Because they were at war.
@@henryseidel5469 No disagree, once airpower enabled you to kill over and beyond the front line everything became a legitimate target. Dresden was no more special than Manila, Berlin, London, Tokyo. There were no rules of war in total war, no protection of civilians because the aim was to limit the war and its effect on your own soldiers and country and if bombing took the fortitude out of the enemy then bomb away AND Dresden was a city in a combattant. Dresden may have been beautiful and historic but its inhabitants were part of the war. That said the bombing of Laos and Cambodia by the US during the Vietnam War was a war crime as was the use of Laos and Cambodia territory to transport war materials to South Vietnam by the North. Both these action but especially the bombing killed countless innocents of non combattant nations.
@@tonyolivari2480 Now tell me what you consider to be a 'war crime' and a crime against humanity ! In Nuremberg German Nazis were hanged for it, in Vietnam nobody was. Not even those who killed women, children and babies at MyLai. Were those babies enemy soldiers ? American arrogant logics do not work in Europe for the people do not accept double standards. Was 9.11. a war crime ? Or was it just a legitimate action of some enemies in self-declared warfare ? Was Iraq a combattant nation when being bombed ? Was Panama a combattant nation ? Was Lybia a combattant nation ? You are just arguing according to American home-made standards , aren't you ?
@@tonyolivari2480 Did airpower justify the initiators to kill the rest of Manhattan on 9.11. ? They had a one sidedly declared state of war against the United States. Wouldn't it have been their 'right' to do so the way US did in Vietnam, in Lybia, in Iraq, in Yugoslavia and many other places ?
The fire bombings don't bother me one bit. I'm 83 years old. I lived through the entire war. Germany declared war. on the US. Japan. chose a sneak attack. After the A bomb, my Dad came home. Many of my friends' Dads didn't . I notice a bit of bias in his discussion about Dresden. But that's ok. A very good video. You do excellent work. Thank you
The bombing of Dresden was an atrocity aimed at civilians and anyone so cruel in the deepest recesses of their icy heart as to glorify it is atrocious.
Speak for yourself. You clearly have no appreciation, understanding or respect of western civilization. I have no doubt you have no knowledge of the architects, craftsmen, painters, sculptors and architecture over centuries in places like Dresden, Wurzburg, Potsdam and many others. Even English Kenneth Clark in his book Civilization, stated how appalling what happened to Dresden was. You must take great happiness at the endless list of destroyed churches, cathedrals, palaces, etc. etc. And, the ugly rebuilding after the war to drives the destruction home even more. Wipe out any memory of what once was. Congratulations on being delighted that all of it is gone. And yes, I know all about what the Nazis did to Warsaw, Leningrad, etc. And I have never, ever, forgotten about our brave American boys who fought and died for freedom. The firebombings brought the level of the allies down to that equal to the Nazis. As I said, Speak for yourself.
@@christopherhall3894 Yes... as above, Dresden writing not an easy call. Sometimes I've considered writing a bespoke documentary on it.. but it's a hard "justification" for the bombing. Cheers.. Liam Dale (Producer/narrator).

17:50 - Quais ressentimentos antigos? Entre EUA e Inglaterra? Não ficou claro 18:03 - Eisenhower ordenou que Montgomery assumisse o comando de todas as forças britânicas e norte-americanas no lado norte do bolsão 18:52 - Não faz sentido os norte-americanos terem se aborrecido com Montgomery no comando pois ele não se auto-promoveu, quem colocou ele no comando foi Eisenhower, e por sinal Montgomery trouxe estabilidade no norte do bolsão, ou seja, fez um bom trabalho que fora designado à ele pelos norte-americanos
Do not forget the Finns (Mannerheim), Norvegians (Quisling), Hungarians (Horthy), Slovakians (Tisso), Italians (Mussolini) and Romanians (Antonescu) were on Hitler's side as long as they expected a piece of the cake. That is exactly why Stalin insisted on keeping a buffer zone of influence in Eastern Europe after the war.
Still can’t tell the difference between rushin and soviet …. Yes it matters , even if there are still people yattering on about related subjects that still don’t get it . Are the Scot’s , welsh , Irish dnd other such like English? It really is that simple . Orwell tried explaining that to his fellow English in the thirties …..
@@CLARKE176 my god these westerners.... Yeah, and they are all soviets. British= Soviet English= Russian And even then its not equal in reality. Because soviet union was highly againts different ethnicities and religions, so a kazakh was as soviet as a russian. Stalin was georgian, lenin himself was half tatar(kinda turkic. There were azerbaijani generals even.... it isnt simple.
Il me semble que le titre est plutot: "Apocalypse 2eme guerre mondiale en couleur" Episode ???... Isn't it...??? Donc déjà vu sur d autres chaines youtube...
The Americans and British were happy to let the Soviets take Berlin. With good reason the Soviets lost more men just taking Berlin than USA lost in ENTIRE war
Caso a Alemanha atacasse somente a União Soviética iriam ganhar, caso os Estados Unidos, França, Inglaterra entre outros aliados batesse de frente com a Alemanha iria perder também 😂😂😂 a única diferença era que a União Soviética bateu de frente contra a Alemanha, Bulgária, Finlândia entre outros países sozinhos 😂😂😂😂
I get sick of every documentary referring to the war against the Nazis , the Nazis were just a part of the german population , the allies were fighting against Germany and its allies , the Nazis were not a different country although that is what all the media would like us to think.
@@pac9764 Do you also think the people at Hiroshima and Nagasaky were killed by some Texan farmers ?? The population was happy when the whole shit was over.
@@henryseidel5469 Not my point. No one says the Democrats or Truman dropped the A-bombs - we, the Americans did. The germans invaded the USSR. The germans committed the atrocities - not just the so-called “Nazis”
@@pac9764 You are right, it is always a whole country that is considered to be responsible. It was 'the Americans' that killed three million people in Vietnam....not a handful of politicians from Oval Office. Yet this kind of approach is wrong but has become a habit to make historiography more evident and manipulative. Was it 'the Americans' that killed their own indigenous people ? I think we should be a bit more careful about describing history for it is usually more complicated than the brains of some sensationalists.....that call themselves 'journalists'.
t This is excellent for french language learning the french captions and speech are perfect together in this video, but the portuguese captions and speech not so much.
So few realize American and British corporations were funding Hitler. He got TIME: Man of the Year award until he betrayed them, they were FINE with gen0cide just like now.
Russia did most of the work against Germany.. The efforts of the western allies were of course essential. Both USA and British essential and their efforts approximately equal
A combined effort.....US helped with lend lease, bombing German factories, until the western invasion, British destroyed the Luftwaffe. But yes, the Russian cost is hard to fathom.
And the US kept the USSR fed throughout the war on a diet rich in SPAM, without which they would've surely lost. Of course, Stalin was so embarrassed by this that he ordered it repacked in Russian containers, never minding that they still read "made in America" in English letters that a barely literate soldier probably couldn't make out anyway.
The efforts of the western allies (US&UK) were of course essential for War II Both US&UK essential for War II and their efforts approximately equal: A combined effort.....US&UK with lend lease Oil helped Germany of Hitler since 1933 to 1944 until the summer of 1944, monthly, including Oil tankers of the American Standard Oil Company Rockefeller, which went to the ports of Spain, (allied to Hitler) went through seas controlled by the British Royal Navy. This is exactly the kind of oil that was not in the bowels of Germany before the war and during the war. And, this means that without oil aid from the US&UK helped for Hitler from 1933 until the summer of 1944, alas, Hitler's fighters and bombers would not rise into the sky without kerosene ; Hitler's tanks would not budge without gasoline; And, hunting packs of Hitler's submarines will not go out into the North Atlantic to sink the ships of American and British sailors as part of the northern convoys to the USSR! This is exactly the kind of oil aid to Hitler from the US&UK, without which the War II will never begin! And 50 million Europeans (Western and Eastern) will remain alive, and they will have children, and therefore today there will be no need to bring millions of workers to Europe from Africa, Arab countries and the Middle East, without the help to Hitler from the US&UK until since 1933 until the summer 1944, alas!

In a courtroom David Irving said, “if the soldiers that stormed the Normandy beaches in June 1944 could see England as it is today they wouldn’t have gone 40 yards up that beach”.
Indeed the landing at Normandy is shown by the media a million times, but hardly anyone shows what happened between Stalingrad, Leningrad and Berlin. Selective perception !
The aid of the United States of America to the Soviet Union played an important role in the defeat of Hitler's Germany. The value of these aid reaches 140 billion dollars in today's dollar price. Although these aids included nearly 15,000 tanks and airplanes, the most important part was food aid, fuel, and more than 400,000 jeeps and trucks.
I have two grandfathers who fought for the Wehrmacht and spent five years in Russian gulags after the war and came back all puffed up like balloons . Make no mistake they weren’t that way because they were being fed well but because all the reds kept stuffing into them was a shit load of bread and water ! Ironically on the best side of my family tree which is on my Mom’s side and that’s the one I cherish and value the most and that is that I have Judaic blood in me because my mom’s grandmother was full blooded Jewish and I wish I was a 100% !!!!!

I tried my best to listen to the whole thing but i could barely hear the poor narrator. The strange Halloween music 2/3 into the video ended it for me, too obnoxious. I love this videos, wish you'd turn down that background (more like foreground) music.
So much about how the west didnt get to Berlin and not enough about how the russians got there and took it alone . How far did an allied leader have to drive for the surrender from the front lines again?
Yes, history records that the soviets dealt the decisive blow to Nazi Germany... unfortunately, they also dealt the decisive blow to "it's" half of Poland alongside Germany the previous year, and attempted to with Finland. Worse still, when the soviets reached Berlin, they unleashed a wave of rape and atrocity on the German citizenry that you'd be hard pressed to justify. Maybe that's why the emphasis is on the other allies, because we can't fairly examine the triumphs of Soviet Russia without also examining it's abuses. The other allies ALSO committed war crimes, but no where near the level of the red army under Stalin. I'd bet THAT is why this program is framed the way it is. The Polish will never forget the massacre at Katyn at the hands of the red army and the NKVD.

A wonderful and distinctive channel that deserves admiration and appreciation. You provide accurate, wonderful, and very useful information. A thousand greetings, great respect and great pride for these wonderful publications and distinguished efforts. I wish you lasting success. The utmost respect and appreciation.
Thank you for sharing this documentary,but your map at 21:21 is not a map from the second world war,even not from 1914,the first word war,because in the south of balkan,there was no Turkey empire anymore from 1912 and forwards.
ok, Ponce de Leon, thanks...
that is exactly what i've noticed, the map is not from the years of second world war...
В этом видео слишком много киноляпов. На 24:30 рассказывают о вероломстве Сталина в 1945, а показывают бойцов в форме образца 1941 года.
Ses documentaires sont là pour déformé l'histoire réelle de la seconde guerre mondiale ne soyez pas naïf
Obrigado por todo conhecimento e aprendizado! RJ 🇧🇷
Great documentary.
Merci super ton enquête 🙏🏼👍
Flame throwers and phosphorus, damn
Ein sehr interessante Doku 👌🏻👍🏻
A man told a true,the German army loss 5 or 6 million soldiers fought against USSR,but the Russian more 8 or 9
Around half of soviet soldiers losses (not "russians") were due to the fact that nazis killed around 60% of soviet soldier who surrendered, especially the millions captured in 1941
Merci pour le partage
It’s unbelievable that a build up of German forces could happen Again in the Arden and Ike not knowing abt it.
No drones, no satellites, and ... though they were extant, no spies present where intelligence could be gotten. Also, everybody thought that the last German forces would dedicate all that was left to slowing the Soviets.
nice documentary
The moral of the story is...WAR is not the answer......I thought us humans would have learned that by now......
Looks like we will never learn.
RIGHT. Not even a little doggie will run against a tree a second time. But 'intelligent' human beings do !
Cool documentary
Valeu!
it might be better to leave it black and white if this is the best colorization you have available
И вот такая благодарность России и всему советскому народу, вся Европа и США объединились против России,из за того ,что Россия бориться с возрождением фашизма.и несправедливостью в мире.
Им не понять. Они тупые! И поможет им только Грибок,как бы не жалко было нормальных людей. Но такие уроды что так переворачивают историю и организуют войны должны сгореть!
Good doco
All your documentaries should
be in hindi also.🙏🙏🙏
Two comments:
1. The music is ridiculous
2. Schtop saying Schtalin
Écoutez-le en français, pas de Schtaline.
So IKE, against the advice and wishes of Churchill decided that Berlin was no longer an objective of the US, sent a note to Stalin and gave him the go ahead to deal with Berlin himself.
What was the outcome?
Answer, A divided Berlin, East & West, a divided Germany, East and West.
Then, years of a Cold War between the West and Soviet Union.
Hitler had this problem: he always underestimated the enemy. In fact, not just him, his top brass also had this strategic habit of underestimating the enemy. They broke their face.
The Soviets*, not russians exclusively.
Thank you so much Captain obvious.😆😆😆

What’s the fuss with Dresden’s bombing? Remember what happened to Warsaw, Leningrad, Stalingrad, etc…? Why they were not mentioned?
Because Warsaw and Leningrad happened in the course of war, when it was about winning or losing. Not some days before the end for the purpose of killing and destructing. See Hiroshima and Nagasaky.
@@henryseidel5469 this is another myth. A war ends when there is a SURRENDER. Germans and Japanese have been losing for years … why they didn’t stop and kept returning fire? Because they were at war.
@@henryseidel5469 No disagree, once airpower enabled you to kill over and beyond the front line everything became a legitimate target. Dresden was no more special than Manila, Berlin, London, Tokyo. There were no rules of war in total war, no protection of civilians because the aim was to limit the war and its effect on your own soldiers and country and if bombing took the fortitude out of the enemy then bomb away AND Dresden was a city in a combattant. Dresden may have been beautiful and historic but its inhabitants were part of the war. That said the bombing of Laos and Cambodia by the US during the Vietnam War was a war crime as was the use of Laos and Cambodia territory to transport war materials to South Vietnam by the North. Both these action but especially the bombing killed countless innocents of non combattant nations.
@@tonyolivari2480 Now tell me what you consider to be a 'war crime' and a crime against humanity ! In Nuremberg German Nazis were hanged for it, in Vietnam nobody was. Not even those who killed women, children and babies at MyLai. Were those babies enemy soldiers ? American arrogant logics do not work in Europe for the people do not accept double standards.
Was 9.11. a war crime ? Or was it just a legitimate action of some enemies in self-declared warfare ?
Was Iraq a combattant nation when being bombed ? Was Panama a combattant nation ? Was Lybia a combattant nation ?
You are just arguing according to American home-made standards , aren't you ?
@@tonyolivari2480 Did airpower justify the initiators to kill the rest of Manhattan on 9.11. ? They had a one sidedly declared state of war against the United States.
Wouldn't it have been their 'right' to do so the way US did in Vietnam, in Lybia, in Iraq, in Yugoslavia and many other places ?
*que narração; que momento negro da humanidade!*
The fire bombings don't bother me one bit. I'm 83 years old. I lived through the entire war. Germany declared war. on the US. Japan. chose a sneak attack.
After the A bomb, my Dad came home. Many of my friends' Dads didn't .
I notice a bit of bias in his discussion about Dresden.
But that's ok.
A very good video. You do excellent work. Thank you
Dresden.. not an easy call. I TRY not to judge in my work.. all the best.. Liam Dale
The bombing of Dresden was an atrocity aimed at civilians and anyone so cruel in the deepest recesses of their icy heart as to glorify it is atrocious.
The US knew about the Japan's plan about the attack on Pearl Habour.
Speak for yourself. You clearly have no appreciation, understanding or respect of western civilization. I have no doubt you have no knowledge of the architects, craftsmen, painters, sculptors and architecture over centuries in places like Dresden, Wurzburg, Potsdam and many others. Even English Kenneth Clark in his book Civilization, stated how appalling what happened to Dresden was. You must take great happiness at the endless list of destroyed churches, cathedrals, palaces, etc. etc. And, the ugly rebuilding after the war to drives the destruction home even more. Wipe out any memory of what once was. Congratulations on being delighted that all of it is gone. And yes, I know all about what the Nazis did to Warsaw, Leningrad, etc. And I have never, ever, forgotten about our brave American boys who fought and died for freedom. The firebombings brought the level of the allies down to that equal to the Nazis. As I said, Speak for yourself.
@@christopherhall3894 Yes... as above, Dresden writing not an easy call. Sometimes I've considered writing a bespoke documentary on it.. but it's a hard "justification" for the bombing. Cheers.. Liam Dale (Producer/narrator).
A wonderful channel that deserves the best regards, appreciation, admiration and pride. It provides accurate and useful information. I thank you for all the beautiful words and sincere feelings for your distinguished posts. I wish you continued success and all the best. My utmost respect and appreciation
Melhor narrador e a melodia ao fundo top
Não o melhor narrador e o que faz a dublagem do documentário (Redescobrindo a segunda) , se não ja assistiu de uma olhada na dublagem e na melodia!
17:50 - Quais ressentimentos antigos? Entre EUA e Inglaterra? Não ficou claro
18:03 - Eisenhower ordenou que Montgomery assumisse o comando de todas as forças britânicas e norte-americanas no lado norte do bolsão
18:52 - Não faz sentido os norte-americanos terem se aborrecido com Montgomery no comando pois ele não se auto-promoveu, quem colocou ele no comando foi Eisenhower, e por sinal Montgomery trouxe estabilidade no norte do bolsão, ou seja, fez um bom trabalho que fora designado à ele pelos norte-americanos
better than NETFLIX
definitely, but not better than HBO
Netflix isn't a high bar.
VERY BEAUTIFUL AND VERY CHARMING DOCUMENTARY ..
Не русские а советские, без других национальностей русские поиграли бы первые годы войны
Do not forget the Finns (Mannerheim), Norvegians (Quisling), Hungarians (Horthy), Slovakians (Tisso), Italians (Mussolini) and Romanians (Antonescu) were on Hitler's side as long as they expected a piece of the cake. That is exactly why Stalin insisted on keeping a buffer zone of influence in Eastern Europe after the war.
What’s the point of the blurring, how are you supposed to understand how serious it was when you can’t see it.
como era boa essa narracao
Muito bom o vídeo
Не только русские, казахи и остальные советские - тоже.
СССР!
Still can’t tell the difference between rushin and soviet …. Yes it matters , even if there are still people yattering on about related subjects that still don’t get it . Are the Scot’s , welsh , Irish dnd other such like English? It really is that simple . Orwell tried explaining that to his fellow English in the thirties …..
They’re all British apart from the Irish.
@@CLARKE176 my god these westerners....
Yeah, and they are all soviets.
British= Soviet
English= Russian
And even then its not equal in reality. Because soviet union was highly againts different ethnicities and religions, so a kazakh was as soviet as a russian. Stalin was georgian, lenin himself was half tatar(kinda turkic. There were azerbaijani generals even.... it isnt simple.
Il me semble que le titre est plutot: "Apocalypse 2eme guerre mondiale en couleur" Episode ???... Isn't it...??? Donc déjà vu sur d autres chaines youtube...
The Americans and British were happy to let the Soviets take Berlin.
With good reason the Soviets lost more men just taking Berlin than USA lost in ENTIRE war
Fake. The USSR lost about 80 thousand killed in the Berlin operation, against almost 800 thousand killed by the USA and Britain in the war.
Singulière idée de flouter les images !
😅Digan lo que digan los gringos el glorioso ejercito ruso gano la WWII.
Ist es schon wieder soweit?
Schatz, wir müssen packen!
👀
Alemanha era foda, lutou quase sozinha contra todas potências mundiais e ainda humilhou a França e quase meteu de joelhos a União Soviética
*eram uns demônios!*
Caso a Alemanha atacasse somente a União Soviética iriam ganhar, caso os Estados Unidos, França, Inglaterra entre outros aliados batesse de frente com a Alemanha iria perder também 😂😂😂 a única diferença era que a União Soviética bateu de frente contra a Alemanha, Bulgária, Finlândia entre outros países sozinhos 😂😂😂😂
They literally had the entire European continent and north east Asia.
Why am I seeing more blurred out videos of dead bodies, etc? Is it YT or whoever uploads the video doing that?
I get sick of every documentary referring to the war against the Nazis , the Nazis were just a part of the german population , the allies were fighting against Germany and its allies , the Nazis were not a different country although that is what all the media would like us to think.
Very pointed observation… the atrocities were not only Hitler’s or Nazi’s. They were all Germans and supported by the population
@@pac9764 Do you also think the people at Hiroshima and Nagasaky were killed by some Texan farmers ??
The population was happy when the whole shit was over.
@@henryseidel5469 Not my point. No one says the Democrats or Truman dropped the A-bombs - we, the Americans did. The germans invaded the USSR. The germans committed the atrocities - not just the so-called “Nazis”
@@pac9764 You are right, it is always a whole country that is considered to be responsible. It was 'the Americans' that killed three million people in Vietnam....not a handful of politicians from Oval Office.
Yet this kind of approach is wrong but has become a habit to make historiography more evident and manipulative.
Was it 'the Americans' that killed their own indigenous people ?
I think we should be a bit more careful about describing history for it is usually more complicated than the brains of some sensationalists.....that call themselves 'journalists'.
t
This is excellent for french language learning the french captions and speech are perfect together in this video, but the portuguese captions and speech not so much.
So few today realize that USSR’s Stalin was allied with Hitler when they started the war.
So few realize American and British corporations were funding Hitler. He got TIME: Man of the Year award until he betrayed them, they were FINE with gen0cide just like now.
And the British and French gave away Czechoslovakia to Hitler, so what the hell's your point?
The caption text doesn't match the narration AT ALL! What is up with that?
A.I.....
Russia did most of the work against Germany.. The efforts of the western allies were of course essential. Both USA and British essential and their efforts approximately equal
A combined effort.....US helped with lend lease, bombing German factories, until the western invasion, British destroyed the Luftwaffe. But yes, the Russian cost is hard to fathom.
@@toddjohnson271 1 out of 7 Russians died in WWII. That is truly a staggering fact that is hard to get your head around
@@nick22091 , Ou seja: os russos apanharam mais
And the US kept the USSR fed throughout the war on a diet rich in SPAM, without which they would've surely lost. Of course, Stalin was so embarrassed by this that he ordered it repacked in Russian containers, never minding that they still read "made in America" in English letters that a barely literate soldier probably couldn't make out anyway.
The efforts of the western allies (US&UK) were of course essential for War II Both US&UK essential for War II and their efforts approximately equal: A combined effort.....US&UK with lend lease Oil helped Germany of Hitler since 1933 to 1944 until the summer of 1944, monthly, including Oil tankers of the American Standard Oil Company Rockefeller, which went to the ports of Spain, (allied to Hitler) went through seas controlled by the British Royal Navy. This is exactly the kind of oil that was not in the bowels of Germany before the war and during the war. And, this means that without oil aid from the US&UK helped for Hitler from 1933 until the summer of 1944, alas, Hitler's fighters and bombers would not rise into the sky without kerosene ; Hitler's tanks would not budge without gasoline; And, hunting packs of Hitler's submarines will not go out into the North Atlantic to sink the ships of American and British sailors as part of the northern convoys to the USSR! This is exactly the kind of oil aid to Hitler from the US&UK, without which the War II will never begin! And 50 million Europeans (Western and Eastern) will remain alive, and they will have children, and therefore today there will be no need to bring millions of workers to Europe from Africa, Arab countries and the Middle East, without the help to Hitler from the US&UK until since 1933 until the summer 1944, alas!
We are adults, you don't need to censor the show.
Ótima reportagem, parabéns Americanos teve boa participação da vitória Russas
Pufff😂
Eu nunca tinha visto vídeos de guerras reais agora sim tive a onra de saber como é uma guerra de verdade fiquei comedo de mais quantas vidas se perderam im from brazilian 😢😢😢😢😢😢
Hi, I'm from the 🇺🇸
Не было России !? Не было Англии и США!
muito bom
Where's the Russians ???
The Soviet union's red army was Rusia Stalin as its leader
At first I thought it was the recent news))
благодарите сталина
Они тупые! Не поймут.
The music is a bit too loud
In a courtroom David Irving said, “if the soldiers that stormed the Normandy beaches in June 1944 could see England as it is today they wouldn’t have gone 40 yards up that beach”.
Birds of a feather flock together
Why?
No they would have anyway since they were fighting against the Nazi regime itself so yes they certainly would have.
this is bullshit. Consider how Soviet soldiers stormed across the ice on skis. it will be cooler
It's up to you to believe a neo-nazi in a courtroom, but ok
Why blur the dead! Otherwise a decent doco...
This is why don't go into russia
I expected to see "The Russians advanced towards Germany" and instead I was watching the whole WWII history from the point of Battle of Bulge.
Indeed the landing at Normandy is shown by the media a million times, but hardly anyone shows what happened between Stalingrad, Leningrad and Berlin. Selective perception !
The aid of the United States of America to the Soviet Union played an important role in the defeat of Hitler's Germany. The value of these aid reaches 140 billion dollars in today's dollar price. Although these aids included nearly 15,000 tanks and airplanes, the most important part was food aid, fuel, and more than 400,000 jeeps and trucks.
Помощь)) За весь ленд-лиз СССР платили чистым золотом !
Russia lost so much in ww2- in the following 45 years too. I wonder how many more millions would of died without the aid?
That wasn’t the sole reason how the ussr prevailed.
@@CLARKE176 I don't think he said it was the sole reason. It was important, not a major point.
@@bunkerkorpf1440don't even argue with anybody on UA-cam they can't read. They assume whatever that want to be said lmao
I have two grandfathers who fought for the Wehrmacht and spent five years in Russian gulags after the war and came back all puffed up like balloons . Make no mistake they weren’t that way because they were being fed well but because all the reds kept stuffing into them was a shit load of bread and water ! Ironically on the best side of my family tree which is on my Mom’s side and that’s the one I cherish and value the most and that is that I have Judaic blood in me because my mom’s grandmother was full blooded Jewish and I wish I was a 100% !!!!!
Oyyy veyyy juuu
That is most biased documentary i've seen.
Danke für Ihren Kommentar👍👍👍Derselbe Gedanke hatte ich nach vier Sätzen:‼Typisch "Angloamerikanisch".‼ Sind nicht in der Lage, um das Wohl ihrer eigenen Bevölkerung zu kümmern‼Aber andere Völker bis auf den letzten Blutstropfen auszusaugen können sie und zwar bis heute seit ihrem US-Bürgerkrieg 1861-1865‼
Ah bon 😮
Why?
I tried my best to listen to the whole thing but i could barely hear the poor narrator. The strange Halloween music 2/3 into the video ended it for me, too obnoxious. I love this videos, wish you'd turn down that background (more like foreground) music.
Thanks Soviet army for saving the whole world!
Thank you for speaking the facts 👍

основную часть победы сделал советский союз. британцы и американцы начали войну только в 1944.
So much about how the west didnt get to Berlin and not enough about how the russians got there and took it alone . How far did an allied leader have to drive for the surrender from the front lines again?
Yes, history records that the soviets dealt the decisive blow to Nazi Germany... unfortunately, they also dealt the decisive blow to "it's" half of Poland alongside Germany the previous year, and attempted to with Finland. Worse still, when the soviets reached Berlin, they unleashed a wave of rape and atrocity on the German citizenry that you'd be hard pressed to justify. Maybe that's why the emphasis is on the other allies, because we can't fairly examine the triumphs of Soviet Russia without also examining it's abuses. The other allies ALSO committed war crimes, but no where near the level of the red army under Stalin. I'd bet THAT is why this program is framed the way it is. The Polish will never forget the massacre at Katyn at the hands of the red army and the NKVD.
Not Shtalin 😂. Stalin .
