To remind you this war also known as gentelmans war here is a Mustafa Kemal Ataturks words for ANZAC soldiers mothers "Those heroes that shed their blood and lost their lives ... You are now lying in the soil of a friendly country. Therefore rest in peace. There is no difference between the Johnnies and the Mehmets to us where they lie side by side here in this country of ours ... You, the mothers who sent their sons from faraway countries, wipe away your tears; your sons are now lying in our bosom and are in peace. After having lost their lives on this land they have become our sons as well."

When Yuri Bezmenov explained the power structure of the USSR he said that the triangle was made of the KGB, the Red Army and the Communist Party. The KGB would declare war if it was convenient, and only after thorough campaign of sabotage, espionage and subversion, to stack the game in the USSRs favor. The army? They were the least likely to declare war, because they know what war is. The party was the most warmonger of all, because it was full of dull, spineless and worthless bureucrats or senile megalomaniacs who fancied themselves as revolutionaries, who were even more cowardly than the bureucrats when it came to actual confrontations.

An honourable mention should go to the last speech of Romanian Communist Dictator, Nicolae Ceausescu. After the arrest of an ethnic Hungarian Pastor, László Tokés, by the Romanian Secret Police, protests started erupting in the city of Timisoara. These protests grew and grew, but Ceausescu was on a state visit to Iran at the time. Upon his return, he organised a rally in Bucharest, the Romanian Capital, in his support. Addressing a crowd of over 100,000 people, Ceausescu promoted the achievements of the "Socialist Revolution." But less than 10 minutes into his speech, the crowd chanted the name "Timisoara". The dictator raised his right hand, to silence the crowd, something that had worked for his entire regime, but not that time. This time, the crowd kept chanting. Because it was supposed to be broadcast live, the cameras couldn't hide from the public what was unfolding. Ceausescu looked visibly stunned, not getting the response he expected. He and his wife eventually escaped from the roof of their palace by helicopter, but because the army believed that the Defence Minister had been murdered, they quickly captured the dictator and his wife, put them both on trial, sentencing them to death, the sentence being carried out on December 25th 1989. The Romanian Revolution was by far the bloodiest of the Eastern European revolutions of 1989, with over 1000 people killed.

You forgot about the English Armada. Right after the Spanish Armada was defeated, the English, realizing that Spain can easily rebuild its naval power given time, counter-attacked and tried to invade them through Portugal. The English Armada was even bigger than the Spanish, but the reason English historians gloss over it was due to it having been totally annihilated in a humiliating farce. They tried to stir up dissent against the Spanish King in Portugal, only for it to fail, and their armada was soundly crushed by the defending Spaniards. This allowed Spain to rebuild its armada and continue being a naval and global superpower until Napoleon invaded them in the 1800s.

My professor from college once told this thing as well: It's easy being a general after a battle. Let's see you as generals during the battle, and you make some important an crucial decisions that will show the outcome of the battle. Speaking of Titanic, I can say that my ancestors was suppose to travel by that ship to US. He was one the guys from Balkan peninsula who had a ship ticket. What happened is that he had to sold the ticket, cause one of the passengers wanted to enter that ship as well. And the mentioned situation happened. A year later he went to US. He was couple of years ago there, and after that he returned to Balkan peninsula (Yugoslavia, to be precise).

The Ending to "Monty Python and the Holy Grail" was the biggest letdown in my life

[@-----Alcatraz------]

Captain Smith did not ignore the warnings of the icebergs. They were noted and the course was adjusted. Every action was part of the protocol they had back then. The lookouts spotted the iceberg at 11:40pm and William Murdoch didn't ignore the phone as he wasn't even the one to answer it, it was James Moody. Murdoch was the one who ordered hard a starboard and was sending orders to the crew below to initiate the reverse. Also, the passagers didn't even feel anything from the collision. Seriously who was in charge of the script for this video?

[@SiVlog1989]

I agree. The impression I've always got about the sinking of Titanic was that Captain Smith's attitude to ice was the norm for the day. He was doing what other captains would have done, believing that the ship was only in danger in the icefields, therefore the ship needed to get out of there as quickly as possible, relying on their experience and the ship itself to navigate their way through the fields of drifting ice. The only caveat I guess, was SS Californian, which had stopped due to the amount of ice, leading to their wireless operator using the incorrect code (one without the prefix "MSG", which preceded wireless messages to ship captains) while trying to warn all ships in the area to the danger. The latter explains the misconception of an ice warning being ignored (Titanic's Wireless operator, due to there being no MSG prefix in the warning message, and the rules of wireless communication circa 1912, was under no obligation to relay the warning message to the Captain) and due to the human eye being unable to see that well in low light conditions, why the lookouts, Reginald Lee and Fred Fleet, didn't see the iceberg until it was already too late. Ironically, if the ship had hit head on with the iceberg, although there would still have been fatalities, the ship would have stayed afloat

[@-----Alcatraz------]

@@SiVlog1989 Who ever was in charge of the writing for this video is responsible for some outrageous inaccuracies. I'm not at all an expert on the Titanic but I had a strange fascination about the subject which led me to hours of documentaries by people that have studied for years and decades by sorting through log books, eyewitness testimonies of the crew and passengers.

[@MrShadow-qz9xj]

the whole thing is in accurate in one way or another, it was the media that said the ship was unsinkable, not having enough life boats was common practice in those days. Also although reports of Murdoch's death very, what is clear is he died trying to launch another lifeboat. seems like the writer based the whole script off of US media, which has been proven to be bias. Much to the detriment of Murdoch, Smith, and Bruce Ismay.

[@VoidvexVR]

It wasn’t unsinkable, like one newspaper said it was “practically unsinkable” and the captain said he could not think of a way for it to sink but didn’t say it was out of the picture Also they did not ignore them, the captain and crew received several but the one which would have told the location of the ice near the titanic just never made it to the bridge. Further more, when she hit the iceberg She did not have a violent collision. It was more of a small bump Also she did not reach that high of a angle during the break up, she most likely reached a 20 to 25 degree tilt towards her bow when she broke She also didn’t break behind her 3rd funnel. She broke her back around the front of the 3rd funnel.

A couple corrections regarding your Titanic chapter: Firstly, Captain Smith didn't "ignore" iceberg warnings. In fact, upon hearing the warnings, he altered the Titanic's course slightly south where it was believed there were fewer icebergs. Also, he kept the Titanic's speed because that was just the standard maritime practice at the time Secondly, Titanic wasn't ever called "unsinkable" by the White Star Line. The company merely said it was as safe as a ship could get. Nobody seriously had a divine faith in the ship's "invincibility"

Your information about the titanic is incorrect. At 11:40 p.m., lookout Frederick Fleet saw the outlines of a large dark object looming in the mist, and he rang the 16-inch brass bell in the crow’s nest three times to signal “object directly ahead.” He rang the telephone connecting the crow’s nest to the bridge, and when Sixth Officer James Moody answered, he shouted into the phone, “Iceberg right ahead.” Moody relayed the order to First Officer Murdoch in the wheelhouse, who tried to prepare the Titanic for impact.
