If you want to see why Germany should never be trusted...watch World Wars

[Nutz]

The story of Germany's bloodlust and their assault on humanity can be seen on the History Channel's: The World Wars. Of course, they will not illustrate the hate and black hearts of the German people as they should...but think of it as a minor lesson in why we should NEVER trust Germany.

Oh, and as an added bonus...if you want to see the total insignificance of canada throughout history...pay close attention.

 

[Snouter]

I would never trust a racist regime...like the zionist regime for example.

I have worked with and for Germans for many years. Although they would deny it, and of course any generalities one might make are just that - generalities - and would not apply to EVERY German, there are many personality traits that make it easy to see how these people could have been talked into attempting world domination.

And don't forget, given their limited population and natural resources, they were amazingly successful in the failed attempt.

We Americans joke here in the office that "flexibility is not their stong suit." They see nothing wrong with justifying any action, even when it seems perverse or stupid in a particular case, by saying, "That's the way we always do it." And if you want to suggest doing it any other way, you'd better be loaded for bear. Nine times out of ten you just say, "Fuck it." It's easier to do something stupid than to try to convince a German of a better way.

Also they can be amazingly risk-averse, with many managers wanting EVERYONE who has ever worked on a matter to "sign off" in some way so that the manager will have lots of people he can blame if things go badly.

The Germans and the Japanese are, to be candid, the most conceited, bigoted, arrogant, racist people in the world, but they have learned to hide it fairly well since thier countries were bombed to smithereens by our "Greatest Generation." But in spite of that, they are kicking our asses in many, many ways. Think Mercedes, Lexus, BMW, Rolls (owned by Germans), and on, and on, and on.

You give Germans too much credit. Yes, you are right...generalizations are wrong...nonetheless, throughout the world, throughout history...Germans are responsible for death, destruction and hate. No nation should do business with these degenerate people. As they rise to power today in the EU, their racism and nationalism grow even stronger. They will be the cause of the next great war as the EU continues to fail.

I've seen the first installment of "World Wars". I think it was nicely done.

They attempted to cram too much history in a short amount of time. It did, however, peak my interest in learning more. Hopefully it did the same for many more.

Old Fart pointed out some suspect historical facts and I saw a few myself...but for the most part...it is the History Channel and the series is more about viewability than historical accuracy.

 

[Pennywise]

I trust Germany more than the "history" channel.

 

[Nutz]

I trust Germany more than the "history" channel.

Are you of German decent?

Are you of German decent?

No, I have just studied enough history to have perceived the "history" channel's skewed perspective that they try and sell as facts.

I agree with you about the History Channel. I was just curious if you were of German decent because of your worldly views.

Tell that to the squadrons of Canadians who bombed Germany during the war, or the thousands killed and captured at Dieppe. The Canadians lost over 50,000 killed from a population of less than 12 million.

They also provided massive training support for the RAF, guarded the sea lanes etc.

The same holds true for WWI as well.

You need to read some history instead of watching a TV show that gives very little detail of what the heck they're talking about.

I am a student of the Holocaust, having studied the details all of my adult life. Although the Japanese were every bit as brutal and vicious, I can not forgive the Germans for what they did in WW2. While I am sure that the Nazis are gone, and will not rise again, I have "zero" desire to tour Germany.

As for the Japanese, I have been heavily exposed to them for decades, having lived in Vegas, which is a Mecca for Japanese. They always seem so polite, and respectful. Their brutality to allied prisoners were MUCH worse than the Germans, but, there was a very clear dividing line in WW2 between the population, which was trained in total obedience, and the military, which ruled Japan. When I deal with the Japanese, I wonder what they are really thinking. With the German's, I don't even want to know.

The canadians were forced into war by Britain. They didn't even become independent until 1982. canadians are leeches...their existence and well being is only because they have, throughout their unimpressive history, ridden on the coattails of the English and American empires.

I would like to hear @Unkatores opinion on this. I have no issue with the Japanese...they have honor. Germans do not.

 

[mamooth]

Oh, I watched some of "World Wars".

Let's see, the German re-enactors, holding rifles ... wait, those aren't Mausers. Those are British Lee-Enfields. Apparently, the prop guy just said "hey, get us some WWII rifles."

The subject of bombing England comes up, and the image they show is ... B-17s. And a P-47.

The topic is Pearl harbor, and they show ... aegis-class cruisers with Japanese flags. WTF?

I stopped watching at that point. The History Channel is to history as Taco Bell is to Mexican food.

People are people. WWII ended a long time ago.

Those traits can be found among any and all peoples of the world (for example, you just exhibited all of them), as can the best qualities of which human beings are capable. Generalizations are more trouble than they are worth. Take individuals as you find them.

I believe UNK is neither German or Japanese but rather Irish.

I'm AMERICAN, but all my ancestors came to this great nation from Ireland.
