The interviewee is a pleasant guy, but the senile establishment of the Austro-Hungarian Empire is generally seen as having great responsibility for the horror of WWI. He might have mentioned that.

The Habsburg dynasty were perhaps the only ones in Europe who never wanted to go to war. If they were attacked, they went to war, but they were always in favour of peace. It was no accident that the last monarch was beatified in the Vatican. They had a funny motto: "Have lots of children in Austria and don't go to war". And the war was started by leftist, anarchist and globalist movement, killing the heir to the throne, not by the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy!
