  1. My man, I've been a big fan of your channel for years. Avid watcher. Your last video about Israel invading Hezbollah was such a monumental disaster, I legit just stopped watching your videos. Considering how badly you delved into false narrative crafting in your last video about Israel I didn't even bother watching this one. If you want to keep your audience which loves this channel for it's fact based information, I'd recommend you stick to videos about Ukraine (the topic you seem to do a very good job at) Even if this video above wasn't narrative crafting BS like the last one, most won't know because they simply won't watch another one of your Israel videos after the last ones.

  2. @ no one is interested in who you miss or don’t miss. Fact is this guy went down the road of fake news and after the blowback he didn’t make such videos fir quite a while

  3. @Greek, Except Armenia soil didn't get attacked. Now if you're going to make the intellectual argument that this region should belong to Armenia. Then you'd have to concede that North Cyprus should be given to Turkey. It's a similar situation. So do you believe militarily occupying another nation's internationally recognized territory is wrong? Or do you think it's okay? You can't have it both ways.

  4. @rackhamlerouge6787 How do you feel about what France is doing in Africa? Robbing these nations blind, stealing their resources and then arming terrorist organizationst to attack and destabilize the few leaders there who stand up against this theft?

  5.  @Ironpetals2964  Do most French people understand that picking a fight you aren't equipped to deal with isn't a wise idea? A nation with weak military capabilities like France doesn't have the luxury to be making bold moves like this. If you're a 3rd rate nation, it is wise to understand it and behave like one.

  6.  @Ironpetals2964  When you say the dominate military of Europe, I'm thinking perhaps Russia? Because honestly no other European nation has the ability to project any sort of military power in a protracted conflict. Maybe Poland, maybe. France like a former French military general said is a crocadile. Big mouth small arms. Not taking nukes into consideration, France would probably lose a field war to a tiny nation like Azerbaijan.

  7.  @Ironpetals2964  You can have all the cool toys you like, I fail to see how they would work without any ammunition or the logistics to get them to the battlefield. That isn't me saying this, that is the complain of most retired French generals. We saw this "mighty" French army in 2014 during the Libya operation. Americans were just supposed to be backup and the French would do the job. After 3 days the French forces were spent and America had to step in and finish the job. Couldn't handle a small no fly zone over Libya which barely even had an air force. This is the French military. Facts>Your emotions.

  8.  @hahahuhu9828  The French ruling elite don't seem to really care what the "French people" think. I think they've made this very obvious time after time after time. Anyone who hasn't noticed this isn't paying attention. The globalists will decide what the Macron regime does. Not the French people obviously. You think the French people wanted millions of migrants? Well you got them anyway. You have no say in what is done in your name.

  10. For a guy who has the word Strategic in your name it's interesting how non strategic a statement that was. Bordering on ridiculous insanity which isn't going to happen.

  11.  @Bored_Trumpet  Yea experience there is quite simple and without many hassles. They seem to have good relations with the Afghans and considering they've been invited there to build stuff their military staff don't seem to have to deal with any bouts of violence. Probably like a Semi vacation for the troops there. Doubt they've had to fire a single shot. I guess things are different when you're actually invited somewhere, instead of barging in uninvited lol

  12.  @imeprezime8297  They actually did, to the tune of like 1000 phone calls. Not to mention public pleas for help.

  14. @Miss Nati, You do realize it was this mindset which led to this war no? And if we're going to be technical here, you mean "Artsakh was Armenia." Incase you missed what happened in this war.

  15.  @lolnoobus  Anyone who followed this war knows those missiles started early in the conflict and lasted until the end.

  16. And how exactly will you power those industries if you don't control the supply routes for energy? You do understand how the world works right? For god's sake you don't even know that Karadag is not Karabakh lol Why are you even commenting on things obviously above your paygrade?
    1
  17.  @sahhaf1234  It's fairly obvious you don't know what the expression "above your paygrade means." Controlling supply routes applies to anyone with the ability to do so. Also no one claimed you need to enter large wars to do so. You just seem utterly confused about how the world works.

  18.  @ukchatman4920  I highly doubt it's a case of Israel having Hamas right where they want them. Hamas essentially humiliated the IDF by striking so deep into Israel with nothing more than crude weapons. Now Israel is going to walk into Gaza, which is a lose lose situation for them. They're either going to get embarrassed there or they're going to kill like 100 thousand civilians which is essentially going to help most Arab nations break their peace deal with them and isolate them diplomatically and economically in the region. I can't think of any way this playing out where Israel walks out in better shape than when they walked in. Not to mention their air of invincibility has been shattered. Which itself was a deterrent since the 1970s. Hamas might get wrecked but they were willing to get wrecked to put Israel in this no win situation. Also your contention that the "world" being on Israel's side is quite ridiculous. The vast majority of the global south sees Israel in the big picture as the occupier and the Palestinians as the victims. Not to mention the global south's combined population is quite a bit larger than the west who for the most part supports Israel. The reality is, the majority of the world is not with Israel on this. Just the really loud nations are, like America and England.

  19.  Z  Turkey is immeasurably more advanced militarily than Ukraine, the same Ukraine Russia is having trouble with. Russia had trouble dealing with the 8 old school drones Turkey sold to Ukraine. How exactly would they handle 2000 of those things which aren't using old tech? I don't think that is a fight Russia wants to pick.

  20. Yea go ask the Russians how loyal the Armenians have been lately lol

  21.  @Tabgaculugbugra  Yes and I'm saying that it seems some things never change. How'd the Ottoman trust in their most loyal ethnic group work out in the end?

  22.  @ban_eira  Probably because his video was about the military aspect of what happened. Probably also for the same reason he didn't get into detail about the murders of the IDF which are probably 1000x on a higher scale than what you're talking about. Highlighting the atrocities of one side while completely ignoring a longer lasting and much larger scale atrocities of another side is nothing short of madness and a complete disregard in trying to understand a situation. Not even to mention the sheer amount of fake news and propaganda from both sides on this issue. With the propaganda from the Israelies obviously much more powerful when you compare their resources and influence to that of the Palestinians. Harping on one single event in a chain of 10000 events kinda misses the point.

  23.  @cant_Comment  You will see a lot of oddities when dealing with people who live in the most propagandized society the human race has ever seen.

  24. There is no "who was behind this war." It's more a matter of "what was behind this war." This war happened because Armenia invaded it's neighbor's internationally recognized territory and ethnically cleansed over 800,000 Azeri civilians from said territory. Slaughtering that many civilians doesn't become "okay" because of their religion.
    1
  25.  @Sabundy  The problem is that you didn't say anything about it. There is an 800lbs elephant in the room which caused this war and you're making ridiculous statements about this war without taking that into account. This isn't a matter who "believes what." This is a matter what is and what isn't. This conversation is basically going like this. You: Why do objects fall Me: There is something called gravity. You: I never mentioned gravity, you're free to believe what you want. Me: WTF.

  26.  @s123-v3x  Them supporting a nation which isn't of their own religion doesn't make them not of that religion. That is one of the dumbest things I've ever heard.

  27.  @deputykirsanov7314  The fact they begged the French also shows their level of ignorance about the world. What exactly did they expect France to do? France doesn't have the clout or military capability to intervene in that part of the world.

  28. A lot richer. And yes it's a huge mismatch. Which makes it even more insane that Armenia was illegally occupying this nation's territory. It's madness lol

  29.  @youryoutubeyoda  You're never going to live comfortably if you don't project influence around your region to begin with. Cattle isn't going to help your trade deals in the long term nor help you safeguard your energy supplies. A lot of the reasons the nation is suffering is also due to the insane corruption of the people. It's an extremely corrupt society which makes it difficult for anything to run smoothly. Hell you yourself have probably tried to scam someone in the past 2 weeks yourself lol

  30.  @julius43461  Well it wouldn't be a horrible precedent if both sides came to an agreement.

  31.  @ddoumeche  Projecting power and influence is a tad bit different than outright imperialism. I don't think this guy wants to restore them actually annexing these places. The mere idea of it is insanity, assuming they're even considering it is even more insane.

  32.  @ΚωνσταντίνοςΜαργέτης-ζ2κ  How about 2020? Now is this what you actually believe? Or is this what you want to believe?

  33. @James Freeman, also because it would be a hard sell. Helping the side which is illegally occupying their neighbor's territory, not to mention the 800,000 civilians they ethnically cleansed from it. Again, very very hard sell to get everyone on board with that.
    1
  34.  @jamesfreeman7954  The MSM had little coverage of this and the little they did have they literally tried to defend the side which was legally wrong. It's also not that Armenia offers nothing geopolitically, it's more so a matter of it being an area the west cant' enter.

  35.  @AG-vb6vv  Yes Armenia has faced genocide at the hands of Turkey. So if it's wrong for the Turks do to this over 100 years ago, what makes you think it's okay for Armenians to do the same thing to the Azeris just a few decades ago? You do realize you sound like a lunatic no?
    1
  36.  @AG-vb6vv  So said every single war crimes denier in the history of war crimes deniers. Do you guys all buy the same "how to deny war crimes" guide book or something? Why would I support one group who recently committed genocide against another group, merely due to the fact that they themselves were subject to genocide by someone else 100 years ago? Do you have any idea how crazy that sounds? So again have you been studying how the Turks deny war crimes that you're using the same exact tactics? "Oh it never happened" "The numbers are inflated" "they did worse to us" "both sides committed crimes" "They deserved it because of some historical XYZ." "It's exaggerated" "It's propaganda by XYZ" Hmm where have I heard all these same excuses before? Oh and btw, 800,000 Azeri civilians were ethnically cleansed from that region when the Armenians illegally seized it. That is no small number and please don't tell me they all up and vanished into thin air like a fart in the wind.

  37.  @AG-vb6vv  Except innocents were killed, A LOT OF THEM. Also you don't need to be from ethnic group 1 or 2 to be a war crimes denier. Which you seem to be working really hard to do. Do you also club baby seals as a hobby? On a side note if the Azeris start slaughtering civilians and the rest of them started fleeing, then yes it would be ethnic cleansing. Unfortunately for your talking point, that hasn't happened. In fact it's been quite the opposite. When the Armenians illegally invaded NK over 30,000 civilians were slaughtered and 800,000 ethnically cleansed. Now the Azeris have invaded it and less civilians have died than normally do from car accidents. Pretty interesting compare and contrast no? You need to understand that FACTS > YOUR FEELINGS.

  38.  Bog je Srbin  So the Turks killing 1.5 million Armenians well over 100 years ago is somehow more important than the Armenians ethnically cleansing over 800,000 Azeris not too long ago? Objectively it's quite the opposite. The criminals who perpetrated the killings of Armenians in 1915 are all dead. The Criminals who perpetrated the ethnic cleansing of the Azeris in the 1990s are still alive and still not in jail. I find it surreal that you'll want to elevate knowledge of one crime against humanity and completely ignore another. It doesn't work that way.

  39.  @asala2116  One doesn't need to be a paid troll to see insanity and feel the need to point it out. Is that what you do? You make insane arguments and when they're pointed out you get triggered and scream troll? Is your debate position this weak? Is this what you do? You go online and glorify ethnic cleansing and war crimes?
    1
  40.  @rayman991  Who knows and at this point who really cares right? The conflict is resolved. All left is for Armenia to pay reparations to the families of the 800,000 civilians it ethnically cleansed in the 1990s.

  42. Yup they've been at this for quite a while. It really ramped up during the Obama administration. Obama essentially pushed them into a corner where they realized they had to go it alone. And that is what they've been doing with some degree of success.

  44. @edvard, Once you guys learn to get along with your neighbors, you'll be able to get back on your feet. Until you learn that simple lesson, it's rough times ahead.

  45.  @edvard8850  Yup, you guys have gone so deep into the depths of cognitive dissonance that I worry you'll never climb out. But until you do, like I said tough times ahead for you guys.
    1
  46.  @edvard8850  Again until you guys learn to get along with your neighbors life won't be easy. You guys literally have territorial claims on every single one of your neighbors except Iran. The Azeris, Turks and Georgians get along just fine. yet Armenia has a problem with every single one of those countries. Think about that for a second.
    1
  47.  @edvard8850  Armenia and Georgia DO NOT have normal relations. If they did, why did Georgia support Azerbaijan in this war? If they had normal relations why is Armenia making territorial claims on Georgia? Also you're referring to the leader of a country which had their internationally recognized territory attacked and illegally occupied for 30 years. Not to mention the trauma of 800,000 of their civilians being ethnically cleansed from this area in the 1990s. You can imagine them to be angry no? The Armenians haven't gotten over what the TUrks did to them over 100 years ago. You expect the Azeris to forget what Armenia did to them in just 30 years?

  48. It is French trained what did they expect? 😂

  49. If that was the case how did 2000 Armenian soldiers lose Susha to 400 Azeris who had no drone cover because of fog. Explain that one. This mindset you have is actually what led to your defeat. This idea of the racial superiority giving you a false sense of security

  50. @Koranergiz117. I think you fail to realize what insurgency means. One can be an insurgency group which uses methods of terror to achieve their goals. You're splitting hairs here claiming they're not an insurgency group. They absolutely are.
