  143. The greatest swordsman fears the tyro; because the tyro doesn't know "The Rules of the Game" and cannot be predicted. I have a book on WATU and Lindybeige has a video; at one point things were dire and they were tearing their hair out. So an 18 year old WREN got to play against the Admiral and handed him his arse. Panic over; Job Jobbed; Roll on the Rodney! The French high command in 1940; the Japanese Admiralty & Midway. Gamelin and Petain BOTH put their fingers on the Ardennes. Gamelin laid out a plan that looked like he'd breakfasted with Manstein. It was more or less the Sickle Cut. Petain said if they didn't take the necessary precautions in the Ardennes, the Boche would break through. Then when push came to shove the Boche did just as predicted; the Frogs didn't take the precautions; French First Army stuck its' head even further in the sack; the Air Farce wasn't deployed in numbers against the schwerpunkt; and France was to all intents and purposes lost in less than a weeks fighting. The Japs wargamed their Midway plan and it blew up in their faces in the rehearsal. They wouldn't have it and carriers miraculously resurrected and they declared the plan would work. The Americans showed them otherwise; and more or less as the wargame they had disregarded had shown them. There is more to all these realities than just accepting or rejecting the wargames of course. Read "Strange Victory" and " Shattered Sword" for just how messed up the French Army and Japanese Navy were at the top; and "The Rules of the Game" for just how messed up the RN was at the top going into WWI. As far as it could, the RN corrected itself; but there was still The Churchill Factor which would make it all pretty much for nought.

  475. Lewis, The Communist Confession of Faith is bollocks, the Christian Confession of Faith is bollocks. If you want to know what is going with the Garden of Eden, ask a Rabbi. It isn't a Xtian story. You are not "tricking" people about this by using evidence and argument and the other tools of the historical and scientific method; it is other people bullshitting you. While you are digging in the Bible, look at Acts 5:1-11. That's your bridge. Socialism is just Christer bollocks with God stripped out, just as Critical Theory and 'Wokism' are Commie balls with Marx and Lenin cut out. You've probably heard the phrase "Useful Idiots", the Serbo-Croat Korasne Budale is better translated as "Useful Innocents". Socialists are not, as you rightly say, idiots. They are, as you were, naive. They ARE being lied to, but it is the Crenshaws; Diangelos; and Soroses doing the lying and stealing their money; just as it was Engelses; Roosevelts; Scargills; and Atlees in the past. Back when "You Can't Get Me; I'm Part of the Union" could get to No 1, the Postal Workers Union struck. They were out for months, my Mum had to blag that my Dad had buggered off to keep the baliffs at bay. They went back for a ha'penny. A FUCKING HA'PENNY. Meanwhile the Union Leader, Jackson, was swanning about in a Roller. He'd turn up at the picket in a fucking Rolls Royce! Socialist high muckety mucks? Grifters to a man and woman. Scargill was the same, look into the grift that went on there with the Miners Union. Look at the man who screwed his own members for bunce and destroyed whole towns and communities and reduced us to importing crap Polish tailings. "New Jerusalem" my arse. That Hatton chappie deputy leader of the Liverpuddled Council, property developer last I heard. I'm from one of those communities Manchester adjacent where if you stuck a red rosette on a pig, it'd get in. "You are now entering a nuclear freezone", gawd help us. I didn't need that sign, you could tell with your eyes shut you'd entered Socialist Paradise: the A6 turned to shite just past McVitie's. The only good thing about Manchester is the road out of it. You keep on keeping on and pay no mind to arseholes. We have to take back our stolen country and at the root of that must be education, education, and education. The schools are shot; the unis are captured. The MSM? Fucked. Sorry, mate: YOU and others like you are IT. Stop paying attention to the wibble or, better yet, put a call out for others to do that for you. Pay attention to the economics and the history. You've got a YouTube and you know how to use it. To use a metaphor you might recognise; never mind haring of to Breda or the Dyle. The Schwepunkt is Sedan. Let the Tankies get to Arras and then chop the head off the spear. You KNOW how to do this; get on with it and know your back is got.

  620. A "...well regulated militia..." is arguably a militia acquainted with The Manual of Arms. It would KNOW how (when is implicit) to use and not use its' weapons. That is an Originalist argument, and common sense besides. That it is almost never made (As far as I can judge following the matter as an interested UK observer) tells me all I need to know. Neither side is serious about the ostensible issue because guns are NOT in actual fact the ostensible issue; but a McGuffin to hide a risible and dishonest bi-partisan stupid behind. The individual American citizen, on either side and none, is not the "stupid" party or dishonest actor here, but the political parties and politicised organisations arguing ostensibly on her and his behalf in "protection" of his or her person or constitutional rights. You, the American citizenry, need shot of the whole kit-and-caboodle of dishonest bad actor political parties; PACs; and lobbyists playing these silly politically partisan games at the expense of your lives and liveliehoods. When you can't tell the difference between The Farmer and Napoleon, you need to break that mode of thinking, the Two Party System, and organise a Third Party that will act in in the interests of the individual citizen, the citizenry as a group, and the United States itself. We did this in the Late 19th Century/Early 20th Century founding of the Labour Party. The "Working Man" in England is neither of the leisured classes or aristocracy, i.e. Conservative; nor are they politically liberal but conservative, i.e. not Liberal. That the thing was a kludge that allowed entreeist Marxist revolutionaries in the mix is something you should learn from the example of; and not use as an excuse for disregarding what it is obviously advisable you do yesterday.

  688.  @chrismonksellye4608  Both are references to the planet Venus, which appears both in the morning - Lucifer; and the evening -Noctifer. That is lightbringer, nightbringer. The passage from Isaiah is a poetic taunt against the king of Babylon: 3 On the day the Lord gives you relief from your suffering and turmoil and from the harsh labor forced on you, 4 you will take up this taunt against the king of Babylon: How the oppressor has come to an end! How his fury[a] has ended! 5 The Lord has broken the rod of the wicked, the scepter of the rulers, 6 which in anger struck down peoples with unceasing blows, and in fury subdued nations with relentless aggression. 7 All the lands are at rest and at peace; they break into singing. 8 Even the junipers and the cedars of Lebanon gloat over you and say, “Now that you have been laid low, no one comes to cut us down.” 9 The realm of the dead below is all astir to meet you at your coming; it rouses the spirits of the departed to greet you— all those who were leaders in the world; it makes them rise from their thrones— all those who were kings over the nations. 10 They will all respond, they will say to you, “You also have become weak, as we are; you have become like us.” 11 All your pomp has been brought down to the grave, along with the noise of your harps; maggots are spread out beneath you and worms cover you. 12 How you have fallen from heaven, morning star, son of the dawn! You have been cast down to the earth, you who once laid low the nations! 13 You said in your heart, “I will ascend to the heavens; I will raise my throne above the stars of God; I will sit enthroned on the mount of assembly, on the utmost heights of Mount Zaphon.[b] 14 I will ascend above the tops of the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High.” 15 But you are brought down to the realm of the dead, to the depths of the pit. You don't get to take lines out of context: Isaiah 14 3-27 is about a king of Babylon getting his comeuppance from Yahweh Sabaoth. The whole of the chapter is about Israel's enemies getting their comeuppance and the restoration of Israel.

  708.  @fredjohnson9833  Ramsey expected to get less than 30'000 away. He got a third of a million off the mole and beaches. I think that says all that needs saying. Antietam was a Union victory. It was in the exploitation of that victory that McClellan fell short. At Oriskany the Americans achieved their objectives and they were left in possession of the battlefield; the Loyalist having retreated to their own lines. American victory; allbeit pyrrhic. What was the objective and was it or wasn't it achieved? is THE question to be answered. If you were asking about the campaigns these actions occured in, you might get a different answer though. McClellan not exploiting his victory certainly lengthened the war by a year or more; those British troops gotten off would, given 'Madman' Churchill, have meant withdrawals from elsewhere and probably butterflied 'Compass' (Hobart's creation in Egypt was probably the ONLY British force that was an all round match for a panzer/panzer grenadier division.) and thrown a spanner into the early demise of Italian East Africa. Moving on four years, we were out of army reinforcements around D-Day, the absence of those saved from the beaches could conciveably have meant the changing-up of the invasion to following Sicily for want of troops on our part. With all the risks that would have entailed. These things therefore can't be considered in isolation; but if we do so consider I don't see where the arguments lie for failure or defeat in any of these cases.

  757. This is an argument that has been to and fro for fifty or sixty years. Lets look at Western Europe: you can map you can map where the Roman Empire was and where there was just elite replacement from the countries that have Romance languages. Britain is very different; here we have a takeover that was more than just by elites. We have wholesale language change in the eastern parts in a couple of centuries. Look at 1066: another elite replacement and the core of the language survives. We don't call ourselves Normans (Except where that is a personal name) The Normans themselves were a minority Viking elite; Normandy therefore doesn't speak a Scandinavian dialect; it speaks French. We see from Domesday book no records for the North West. Why is that? In the South West Cornish was still spoken as far east as the Somerset levels into the Tudor period. The heartland of Cymru where is spoken is in the northwest; unconquered 'til Longshanks. The Principality wasn't annexed to England until the Tudors. "Wales" and "Welsh" derive from the Old English for foreign; foreigner. The usage was an ethnic slur; the equivalent of Wogland and Wog. The triumph of the English and the English Settlement is that total that HARDLY ANYONE knows that today. The settlement wasn't an overnight affair and there was another Germanic settlement, this time of Scandis, in the Ninth and Tenth centuries. But for the Bastard, we'd probaly be Scandinavian. In the North East, Norwegians could still hold conversations with Geordies about farming in WWII! English and Norewgian were STILL somewhat mutualy intelligable after a thousand years! The truly disgusting molrop(sp.?) remains a "delicacy" too. How do we know there was a Battle of Badon? We can tell from the archaeology that the Settlement was stopped dead and in some places reversed for about fifty years in the sixth century. I haven't looked at the mitochondrial DNA v cellular DNA but that should tell the tale of whether there was a Settlement better. There should be signal that the native blokes weren't getting a leg-over as nearly as much after the English bagsayed all the women! All conquests are savage. Even if the tale is somewhat different from the reality; we aren't responsible either for our forefathers evil or their good. This is very crude and broad and I'm leaving out evidence and argument our English ancestors were settled here BEFORE the Romans in the South East and that the Belgic signal there is that of an elite takeover in the centuries prior to Julius Caesar's failed invasions. If you "think" differently - COME 'N' 'AVE A GO IF YOU THINK YOUR 'ARD ENOUGH! UT! UT! UT!

  870. Mellon was Treasury Secretary. "The problem of the government is to fix rates which will bring in a maximum amount of revenue to the Treasury and at the same time bear not too heavily on the taxpayer or on business enterprises. A sound tax policy must take into consideration three factors. It must produce sufficient revenue for the government; it must lessen, so far as possible, the burden of taxation on those least able to bear it; and it must also remove those influences which might retard the continued steady development of business and industry on which, in the last analysis, so much of our prosperity depends. Furthermore, a permanent tax system should be designed, not merely for one or two years nor for the effect it may have on any given class of taxpayers but should be worked out with regard to conditions over a long period and with a view to its ultimate effect on the prosperity of the country as a whole. These are the principles on which the Treasury's tax policy is based, and any revision of taxes which ignores these fundamental principles will prove merely a makeshift and must eventually be replaced by a system based on economic rather than political considerations." "I have never viewed taxation as a means of rewarding one class of taxpayers or punishing another. If such a point of view ever controls our public policy, the traditions of freedom, justice and equality of opportunity, which are the distinguishing characteristics of our American civilization, will have disappeared and in their place we shall have class legislation with all of its attendant evils. The man who seeks to perpetuate prejudice and class hatred is doing America an ill service." Read him. Greider writes for "Rolling Stone"; don't read him.

  924.  @jonathanperry8331  It is a Judaeo-Xtian trope. The thousand year reign of the Messiah on earth; the Millenial Kingdom. All socialisms are Judaeo-Xtian heresies and usurp Judaeo-Xtian mythology; witness the British Labour movement and 'New Jerusalem'. The Volk is an usurpation of The Church as The Chosen People. The Church as Israel is an usurpation of The Chosen People/Israel. This is why the Confessing Church stood for the Creed in church services when they had not done so before AH came to power. They would have no Fuehrer but God. This is why the Jews had to be destroyed: there could be only one Chosen People of God, and guess who they were? I'll be very interested in the videos Lewis makes to tie this altogether on the faith front. I suspect his 'Hitler wasn't a Xtian' argument will be suspiciously similar to the Wehraboo and Tankie arguments that Hitler wasn't a socialist. Xtianity is a very broad phenomenom; it is more truthful to say there were and are many Xtianities. Hitler's was a variant called Positive Xtianity which launched off Gnostic and Marcionite Xtian ideas. The Hidden Rulers in Paul and other Gnostic writings are demons and/or fallen angels.The anti-Semitism finds its blessing in John 8:44, which equates the Jews with the Devil as siblings of the same evil father. Just as Marx and other socialists "secularised" Xtianity, launching off of Acts 5: 1-11 Hitler "secularises" the Demons, hidden rulers of the world, as the Jews, hidden rulers of the world. When we say Jews are demonised, we are speaking the literal truth. A truth validated for several different varieties of Xtianity by G. Jn. Whether Hitler was a Socialist or a Xtian boils down to semantics and whether or not you exclude the middle. Both are distinctions without differences.

  1168. What a prat. The French indulged in an offensive lunge into Belguim and having failed to defend the debouche from the Ardennes properly. which BOTH Gamelin and Petain were aware of, they got their legs chopped off. Indeed, Gamelin had already in late Thirty Nine sketched almost exactly the German "Sickle Cut". That corner of the Low Countries is called the Cock-Pit of Europe: That is where the great wars of the 17th,18th, & 19th centuries nearly always came to a climax. The Schwerepunkte is Sedan for bloody obvious reasons. The French simply cocked-up big time. See "Strange Victory" by Ernest May and "Blitzkriege Legende" by Kark-Heinz Friese. There doesn't seem to be anything that the Duke might have disclosed that would have contributed either to the German's victory or their defeat. The French marshals; generals; their staffs; their intelligence, the Deuxieme Bureau; and their airfarce ALL failed - and failed miserably. Case Yellow has been gamed umpteen times. The German player only wins if the French player is handicapped up the wazoo. The Unmentionable Sea Mammal is even more impossible an operation of war. The Germans could have WON the "Battle of Britain" air campaign; not that it would have done them a ha'porth of good; but it was switching to bombing cities; London in particular; that lost it for them. How do you establish a double agent's bona fides, eh? He gives your enemy cast-iron intel that you can afford to give up and then they will believe the big lie later. There is the dog, you see - it didn't bark. There are half-dozen different "stories" you can tell, each as plausible as the other... apart from this one - which leaves the Duke alive with his head still attached. That is the dog you have to explain not barking. This chap fails; never mind he doesn't understand the Maginot Line or French strategy and war-planning at all.

  1345. Okay, look at the WHOLE timeline of the channel; the first half of Stalingrad for me was very informative. When you got Paulus into the city, well by then there wasn't really anything that hadn't been deduced already military-wise. The sceenplay/animation business seems to be the crux of the problem with "Stalingrad". If you weren't having to do that; which, lets face it, wasn't there for the first parts of "Stalingrad" or the previous battlestorms. You've first pick-up in Lock-Down March 2020; it falls off toward the end of April 2022. Wasn't that when they called off Lock-Down and the extreme daft? You can't take things in isolation. The real world has to be counted in. You've been railing in recent weeks against a straw-man "Gnosticism" while worshipping The Algorithm Almighty 24/7 for a couple of years, you daft bugger! I can empathise; the Internet is gettiing in the way of me living in the same way: this is being typed at 05:45 in the morning! I forget whether I did the SubscribeStar poll or not; but, whatever reason I had for supporting you in the first place, the politics/economics/philosophy/religion is what is keeping me here. I was done with "Stalingrad" pretty much definitely when Seydlitz inadvertantly scuppered any possibility of a breakout. All that was really left was Nazi/Wehraboo excuses. I'm a Completist; so I'll still watch but the joy went a long time ago. I have mental health problems; I've been around folk with similar for 25 years; take it from one whose been there, done that, and got the tee - and watched dozens of others do the same - you are heading for a breakdown; if not a complete psychotic break and a locked ward if you keep this up. The Internet and the Algorithm isn't life; but death. An addiction; not sustenance. Live, FFS. I didn't and all I have is regrets. I hope that helps.

  1379. National Socialism or Socialism in One Country, there is no difference. Both produce tens of millions of corpses as their only "product" and both eat themselves sooner or later. Neither emotion, ideology, nor 20/20 hindsght or bigotry, have a place in this argument. Just as they should have no place in a discussion In Cabinet. Churchill should not have been PM, you can make that judgement on his past record going back to the Liberal administrations of Campbell Bannerman and Asquith 1906-1915 which set GB on "The Road to Serfdom" (See the trade union legislation following the strikes and near-insurrection in Glasgow which convicts the Liberal Party as crypto-Socialist loonies) Would the 'Holy Fox' have capitulated to Hitler? We are forgetting we have cabinet government and a parliament. Wood would NOT have the whole say or even the largest part off that say. (Besides, he had repudiated the policy of appeasement and demanded 'the destruction of Nazism' in the week previous to Munich.)The mood of neither cabinet nor parliament favoured capitulation and there was no actual threat of invasion to these isles and there was no threat of us actually being defeated by military means in any reasonable timescale. I do not say Hitler cannot come, my lords, only that he cannot come by sea or air. Bigging up threats is a distractor and common means of shoring up leaders who, absent hysterics, are obvioulsy dubious on examination (See Brandon and the Ukraine). There were other options than capitulation and the dozey "Total War" idea, from a White Peace to conducting a limited war that husbands resources until we could wage a more substantial one. A thing to remember is that at the time Chamberlain resigned Fall Gelb hadn't opened and French stupid was a week from being unmasked. There were low-life traitor types like 'Rab' Butler, but they were hardly representative. I believe we could have negotiated Hitler out of Scandinavia and the Low Countries into accepting demilitarisation of the coast between Germany and Spain. Even a peace a la 1870 with France neutralised and castrated, shorn of Alsace-Lorraine and the industrial North East. Some have mentioned the lifting of the blockade, see the measures the US, Britain, and the Netherlands took against Japan for a riposte. It was known Hitler would go east. It was known the Red Army was craptastic. It was known that the Wehrmacht would suffer insurmountable logistics problems. It was known that the Soviet forces in the Far East were an exception to craptastic. It was known that Stalin could just throw near infinite bodies at the problem and that he didn't actually give a fuck about the Soviet peoples. Hitler would probably lose. What then? The possibility of Commies on the Channel coast, well that is something that couldn't be allowed and a threat that must have been honoured. A continuation of hostilities or a resumption of hostilities after a "Peace of Amiens" would have been the inevitable and neccessary conclusion of sober (SWIDT? 🙂!!!)analysis. Absent Churchill and absent France a harder and more pragmatic analysis of reality would have revealed the lack of an invasion threat or of the possibility of defeat in a meaningful timescale. The necessity of clearing the Med and extinguishing the Italian empire and navy should have been obvious. (The Med or South East Asia; we couldn't make war in both at the same time.) The fact of serious financial restraints should have also been obvious. The ideas behind Bomber Command were fallacious. Building heavy bombers and the huge airfields to support them should have been seen as the financial and sunk cost fallacy it was. Conducting war a la outrance without the means and relying on a nation that was at best a "frienemy" to come in and "save" us or "demoracy" was stupid in the extreme and treasonous to boot. My point is there are umpteen better means to kill a cat than drowning it in cream; and feels plus idiotology no way to promote the national interest, or wellbeing and freedom in general.

  1474. Close down the front, wait for your infantry to catch up with you, and your logistics to catch up with your infantry. Tidy up the battlefield; secure your flanks and lines of communication. Tell the Churchill wannabes to knob off. Build up your men, materials, and munitions. Ensure your reserves have reserves, etc. Then launch a stonking artillery offensive in a few months time. Meanwhile let you enemies attack into the teeth of your guns and bog them down in minefields and barbed wire where you can shoot them up at leisure. :-) After all what are you up against? Numpties on the internet; dross Blackshirts and Luftwaffe field divisions commanded by a South African waste of space would roll over. Do all the topics you can wind up in 1/2hr-1hr videos or in ten minute bites of the same. I'm pretty sure there are other Stalingrad mysteries and things that don't square with one another that would benefit you taking the time to research them rather than have them bite you in the bum like here. As for pulling the episode and correcting it, I think you should redo the part in error. Do it the same as you have done, but then ask that question of yours "But is that really the case?" or however it goes. Make the point there is confusion in the sources, briefly state the choices and direct folk to this video. Turning to other topics will refresh you, keep the not-numpties engaged, and most of all give us a rest. I expect we are a knackered from watching as you are from shooting; plus it adds suspense!
