Ahh the oversimplification of history is rampant these days. Thank you sir for making this video and trying to shed a more realistic light on the history of this time period. I cant tell you how infuriated I get when i speak with people at length on this topic and they merely default to the traditional belief of the German advance was halted by a soviet winter. End of discussion. Clearly, as with most things in history, multiple factors were in play. And the few you touched upon will hopefully set the record straight. Let us hope that as we near the centenary of this conflict we can still try to retain the most accurate of information.

Well maybe the Russians wouldn't of had such bad tank crews if somebody didn't use their big meaty claw-like hands to drive them

As a side note without the influence of Brigadier General Fellers the Showa emperor would have been tried for war crimes as he was taken off the protected list in 1946. Gen Douglas MacArthur tasked Brig Gen Fellers to find evidence to help exonerate the Showa emperor. Historian Herbert P. Bix wrote an amazing book in 2002 titled Hirohito about this subject

Without the influence of prime minister Kinoe the Japanese and their peace faction and the emperor Showa, would never had accepted surrender

What not a lot of people may know about artillery is that is has claimed more lives and been used as the primary means of destruction and death than all other weapons in the history of mankind's warfare. Artillery is quite literally king. It has also been around much longer than you may have thought previously. There are records of artillery pieces being used by Chinese in warfare well back in antiquity.

I dont understand the american ideal that usage of pure analytical based thought to understand the actions of infamous individuals is somehow seen as positive glorification to the established list for villians of history. No its not. We are stating the facts, and looking at multiple perspectives. Everything analyzed is taken at face value. All the while we are asking asking four questions. What was the goal? What strategies were used? Was it effective? Why? Or why not? At the same time we understand there is no single simple answer to these questions, and depending on the perspective taken the answers will undoutedly vary.

Solowarrior1221 You are absolutely correct, the US could have out produced them by any industrial capacity in 1945. However the entirety of the Japanese mindset had eliminated the very idea of surrender. It didn't exist in the culture. For over two years thousand years of Japanese warfare culture there were only 3 outcomes when it came to deadly conflict; victory, death with honor, or death without honor. If the Japanese held one thing highest of all else it was their pride and honor. And that was noticed by the allied forces. They were not kidding when they reached the conclusion in 1944 after Iwo Jima that the Japanese would rather destroy their entire people, culture, and identity than suffer dishonour by defeat at a foreign enemy. Nothing could break that Japanese mentality, not even atomic weapons and millions of casualties. It took a very small Japanese minority of western learned men to realize that the ENTIRETY of Japanese identity and it's civilization was on the line, and they HAD to convince the nation to surrender. Which was no easy task and it was potentially deadly. When Prime Minister Kinoe tried to act on the Orders of the Showa, he was nearly killed and imprisoned by the military officers who launched a coup attempt immediately after the Emperor's decision and broadcast. It was quickly put down. But that goes to show how fanatical they held onto the belief. Not only that a large number of units that did finally hear the Emperor's order thought it was a trick and ignored it. There is a case of one Japanese soldier who continued to fight until 1974, and wouldn't quit until his commander personally told him to stop. That right there shows the dedication the Japanese as a whole had to the idea of not surrendering to a foreign enemy.

I know right these morons that keep conflating things and continue think that causation and correlation are directly affected by each other🤦 the weird results they get from this lack of logic is just completely bizarre

 @barondemontesquieu6111 the Russians lost a tank in the 1960s when China invaded them along the Chinese-Soviet border too lol

Replace Philippines as a US ally with Vietnam and this video is still pretty accurate
