Verdun, 1916: The Battle of the Great War | FULL DOCUMENTARY
From February to December 1916, the French and Germans waged one of the First World War’s most devastating battles in order to take control of the hills around Verdun. A head on confrontation, fought with no help from their allies, army versus army, nation versus nation. 11 months of fighting, over 2 million soldiers mobilised and 300,000 dead.
Today, this massacre seems senseless. But in 1916, soldiers on both sides accepted to go into battle. Why?
This documentary looks back at this insane battle that was to become the bloodiest chapter of the First World War. Looking back through the personal archives of veterans, delving into their daily lives, their dreams and their nightmares, but also using historical re-enactments and numerous computer-generated images, Verdun: They shall not pass! revisits France’s last great victory over Germany. A battle that would become the symbol of nationalist folly and age-old hostility between two nations.

    In an interview, Tony Schwartz, the journalist who wrote Trump’s “The Art of the Deal,” said of Trump “Lying is second nature to him. He lied strategically. He had a complete lack of conscience about it.” Since most people are “constrained by the truth,” Trump’s indifference to it “gave him a strange advantage.”

  • @DavidJ222
    @DavidJ222 Před 2 hodinami

    Abraham Lincoln once said, “No man has a good enough memory to be a successful liar.” To be a good liar you have to keep track of all the lies you’ve told, and to whom, in order to keep the truth hidden. But Honest Abe never knew Trump, or perhaps anybody like him. Trump is a successful liar because he refuses to remember. Not only that: He refuses to anticipate that he will remember the current moment in the future. If you live mainly in the current moment, then the future consequences of your lies will not matter to you. And if you have lived your entire life this way, and to great acclaim and success, why would you ever want to change? Trump was annoyed when Dr. Fauci stole the spotlight by throwing out the first pitch for Major League Baseball’s opening game. In response, he falsely claimed that the Yankees invited him to throw out the first pitch. That lie was roundly refuted a short time later by the Yankees organization. And yet Trump never pulls back on blatantly false statements - lies that are so obvious that they often defy the laws of physics, chemistry and common sense. The key to Trump’s psychology is that he moves through life as “the episodic man.” For Trump, each day is a temporary moment of time. Psychological research shows that nearly all adults develop stories in their minds about their own lives. These stories - what psychologists call “narrative identities” - reconstruct the past and imagine the future. As you make daily decisions, you implicitly remember how you have come to be who you are, and you anticipate where your life may be going. You live within narrative time. But the episodic man does not live that way. Instead, he immerses himself in the angry, combative moment, striving desperately to win the moment. But the episodes do not add up. They do not form a narrative arc. In Trump’s case, it is as if he wakes up each morning nearly oblivious to what happened the day before. What he said and did yesterday, in order to win yesterday, no longer matters to him. And what he will do today, in order to win today, will not matter for tomorrow. What is truth for the episodic man? Truth is whatever works to win the moment. For most people, and every other president in the history of the US, an episodic life would be unsustainable in the long run. There is a primal authenticity in Trump. He tells you exactly what he feels in the moment. He lies straight to your face, without shame, without any concern for future consequences. It is the stark audacity of untruth.

      WW1 was waged over hegemonic control over capital in the form of resources and territory. It's also why America got involved, excluding territorial conquest, because almost everyone amongst the financier class of wall street put their money on the British and the French. America would have had a financial meltdown much sooner and much worse than the great depression, had they lost the war with all of those loans and materials likely never being repaid. There are obviously other reasons, but at the end of the day, that's what it was all about. This is why Congress passed laws against it after and lend/lease was pretty controversial when FDR put it forward. The US really never asked for it, but likely never would have become what it is today, had all that not happened. I am sympathetic to the more idyllic justifications too, as there were strong ideological, moral, and historical reasons in America's interest to oppose powerful autocracies based on familial dynasties and aristocratic patronage systems of the world.
