    Sounds contrary to what I have been told, the French, as far as I know, believed in the Maginot Line, my grandmother was shocked when France feel, that defeatism is highly unlikely. Smashing priceless wine before a single shot was fired NO WAY, JOSE. Hindsight is always 20/20. Not lies but close, a woman who wants attention. Is what she tell in her book about her mother in need of using "grano salis" a bit of caution? Cheers

    Marlene really was what we would consider a narrisict mother in the 21st century. We should love Maria because of Maria. She is eloquent and lived a life no child should have.

    Maria Riva impresses me more than her mother. She is a great speaker and so compelling. My mother was born in Hamburg-Altona in 1921. She was brought to the U.S. in 1927 at age 6. Her father and mother lived through WW l and my Opa was in the army of the German Empire. They helped raise me on Long Island and sometimes my Opa would say to me "All Quiet on the Western Front". It was a privilege and luck to have lived so often with two WW l North Germans as a second set of parents. Oma was a character too, very loving to her two grandsons but my mother too had a problem with her mother. What is that all about? But she was a great cook! OMG! I had two grandparents from Palermo, Sicily also, but rarely saw them where they lived in Flushing, New York.

    Maria Riva speaks so passionately about the America she remembers. It is so sad that in 2023, America is divided by violence and polarized politics driven by outrageous lies and conspiracies that became known as Trumpism. America once seen as a haven for those seeking freedom now sends chills down the spine of every western democratic country across the globe.

    I’m reading her biography on Dietrich now. What an excellent read. I have read all the “Hollywood children tell alls” for the most part but this biography by Riva so far has neither the hate element of “Mommie Dearest” nor the bitterness of “My Mother’s Keeper”. Maria Riva writes openly, honestly, and objectively on many occasions about her mother whom you could tell she found difficult to understand. It reads like a dramatic novel interlaced with comedies of error and unspoken, private heartaches and longings for normalcy. It ultimately made me quite disillusioned by the Dietrich image, insofar that it was totally and completely cultivated, rigidly curated, and belligerently enforced/codified, no matter what casualties were in the blast radius of Marlene’s iron will and lack of flexibility. Ultimately it is a sad book but one worthy of film admirers.

    Five things they should have protected they tried to rip apart in the very seams of which this family was created I don't care my child since or my sins for these have already been forgiven they could have changed every day they chose to take a step in the wrong direction they chose to watch this woman and these children be tortured but this woman and these children were far better soldiers and are much bigger Heroes than they were their best day sober sometimes these were protected children and when they made the rules they made the laws they thought that they did not apply to them I do not think that they truly thought of what they were doing no father in their right mind or mother or judge or anyone else should have did the things real loud the things that they were saying to happen and each day they just didn't hear the words wouldn't see the signs even if they were bruised beaten cut scarred standing right in front of them the protection of this family light up on the government shoulders it was the judge that decided that and now I ask where you good parents my Almighty government

    I mean and this wasn't a crime they committed while on drugs most of them were sober when doing it most of them thought because they sat within the walls of a church or had decorated Metals upon their chest that that's what kept them from being charged with crimes I ask why you see everyday you did these things it makes it worse that you weren't on drugs when you did these things because how can that be rehabilitated what is going to assure me that they will not do this again and again just somebody else or to another four year old child they want my words to be swept under the rugs just as a buried princess dough when Princess doe was not dead that would take an awfully big rug I'm not sure we've opened that

    • @chanang453
      @chanang453 Před 2 lety

      the tape measure refers to the Bin Laden raid......after the raid and the body of Bin Laden was brought back to the USA base they still were not 100% sure is was UBLaden....they put Bin Ladens body on the ground stretched out and McRaven asked a tall Seal who was 6'2" to lay next to BinLaden who was reportedly 6'4" ..The Seal was just a bit shorter which helped confirm UBLs identity.....Back in the United States Obama presented McRaven with a tape measure saying...."during the raid you blew up a $60 million helicopter but back at base you didn't have a $10 tape measure so here's one"........great sense of humour......if you already knew the story I apologise.
