Correcting your correction with a minor correction: Russia didn’t become a republic in March 1917. The haphazard provisional agreement following the February Revolution was that a new constituent assembly would eventually write a constitution for the Empire under which the tsar’s younger brother may or may not be invited to take the throne as figurehead monarch. Russia wasn’t declared a republic until several weeks before the October Revolution.
Fascinating! For those interested, Michael Weinstein's book *With G-d On Our Side* is about antisemitism at the US military academies. A friend was able to escape the pervasive discrimination whilst at the AFA due to his Anglo surname.
It's great to hear that you're working with Sir Manatee. I love his videos, especially the ones about Poland. Thanks for the info about the upcoming one!
SirManatee is more than a German Empire consultant, he's done more work ekaborating on the critically endangered Willamovian, which Tymoteusz Król is quire possibly saving it from destruction entirely. According to legend, the Willamovians spoke a language that got more and more influcened as time went by, supposedly so long theuir Flemish roots are few and far between. This is prime study material!
Love your videos! Keep up the good work
Mazel Tov, Sam!! Always a good day when you post!
Definitely a fan of Sir Manatee! Happy New Year
I greatly appreciate these videos. Your research is so interesting. I’m an American Jew from the west coast (same age as yoi too) and I have had zero real connection to or understanding of Judaism or Jewish history pre ‘48. However, the secular analytical historians lens has made the topic so interesting. I love well researched content and this whole channel has been top notch. Great work. Hope it’s paying the bills ‘'cause CZcams needs more digestible high quality scholarship. Thank you.
Great video!
You are really posting a lot AND there’s a Taylor swift reference? Girl you rock 🎉
She and I were born five days apart.
@@SamAronowhappy birthday Sam. Now as your distant auntie, you are looking a bit thin, not sure if it's the stress of the war or what but get some protein in you and some sunlight. I worry...😊 Be well young man.
@@SamAronow happy belated birthday Sam! ❤️❤️
Your videos have been so useful for my understanding of history!
Thank you Sam. Love your Chanel ! תודה שמוליק
Thank you.
I remeber watching sirmanatee when he had just 19 subscribers it's great to see you collab
Have you thought about putting all of the content from your channel into a book? Of course, thousands of books on Jewish history exist, but your presentation style is very engaging! It makes me uneasy that western education in predominantly Christian spaces mentions MAYBE the siege of Masada (due to Josephus) . . . and then nothing about Jewish history until the Holocaust. If you're lucky, you might hear about the Bar Kokhba revolt, and the Sykes-Picot agreement and Balfour declaration, but there are still 1,800 missing years there. (Also, the idea that Jewish theology is "Christianity without Jesus" feels fairly prevalent.)
Thank you for taking the time to add corrections. No one is perfect, even scholarly works let alone youtube documentaries. Correcting your mistakes is the best we can hope for so I really appreciate your dedication to making correction videos.
Happy birthday!
Happy birthday
7:17 Soghomon Tehlirian, Stepan Dzaghigian, Artashes Gevorgyan, and Petros Ter Poghosyan go brrrrr :D
I’m liking this now because you probably won’t like some of the things I have to say in the coming Russia video and I hope we can be okay after that.
@@SamAronow yes I am aware it was a weird Armenian nationalist conspiracy. But I can’t be as pro Schwarzbard and pro the Eichman trial as I am and then be a hypocrite to other groups when they shoot their own genociders. We’ll still be ok, you’re the dude who introduced me to bundism, so how can I be mad :)
@@patria3023It’s actually related to Schwarzbard. I have no beef with the ARF; I’m from Pasadena, remember.
@@SamAronow ah snap. I get it petlyuras guilt is debatable, and that Sholem was kind of an awful husband. As long as he isn’t judeo-Bolshevik conspiracy or anything (he was an anarchist, bros with Machkno and A. Berkman. That one guy who defected in the 50s to the US and said he was a Bolshevik plant was very much lying) I get it if you have discussion on how guilty petlyura actually was. He wasn’t a denkin, sure, but he didn’t do very much to stop the pogroming. Both of my Zayde’s parents were hurt by the Ukrainian nationalists, my great grandfather was dragged to fight for them at fifteen, and my great grandmother’s shtetl was completely destroyed by the army. So I’m team Schwartzbard. But you may be more along the Jabotinsky route. (My dad is from Fresno, we’re a rather anti ottoman household.)
@@patria3023”Judeo-Bolshevism” seems to be a creation of Denikin and Krasnov. If you want to find an explicitly antisemitic faction in the RCW, it’s the Volunteer Army. In fact their antisemitism and Black Hundredism in general helped seal the Whites’ defeat.
You should consider donating your copy to the internet archive for scanning as an borrowable ebook. They would have to permanently possess the copy however.
מזל טוב סאם!😊
מזל טוב, שמואל!
All of your content is outstanding, so any lack of quantity is more than made up for by the very high quality!
"Nobody knows anything about the Space Force." The Space Force is actually a very boring, legitimate, and bureaucratic thing.
Basically the US military has a lot of space assets like satellites. The Space Force exists for the sole purpose of having dedicated administrators who specialize in managing them.
Could we expect any content about Jews in Austria-Hungary during the war, or at least in other belligerant powers? If Jews in the German military got a video, compared to the much more significant role played by Jews in the Austro-Hungarian military for example, I feel like that could eventually warrant a video.
Edit: also wanted to add so far been very much enjoying this series on WWI. So much interesting, yet underappreciated developments globally, but also especially for Jewish life.
you know, when you mentioned how Jews were more representative in the Airforce in both Germany and now in US Airforce, I had a flashback to when you mentioned in the past that Jews and other minorities were more likely to join the light cavalry in the PLC.
Is there any real reason why minorities, and particularly Jews, attracted to those branches of the army?
Brilliant video. Concerning Jabotinsky’s book. You mentioned it went out of print in 1945. Two additional questions come up: Why? But now we live in the age of digital media is it possible to find this book as a digital copy?
It's likely still under copyright. It's hard to tell because the publishing company no longer exists, but it's likely that its copyrights were taken up by someone else.
@@SamAronow Thank you. And a small bit of digging I found it on Google books but never had a good experience with that site with digital books. Someone claiming to have a copy on Amazon is willing to sell it but there are no proper photos of the book to confirm it isn’t a scam. If the British library website comes back online, would be worth checking if they have a copy
Regarding Jewish support for the Central Powers I recall in a history of Goldman-Sachs reading that Henry Goldman left the firm over his support for Germany
Hey! You need a lot of historical corrections on your Russian Revolution video. Especially when you said that Kornilov was planning a State coup
Got to know so much about Jewish history. Love from South Asia.
hello Sam, is there a video where you talk about your own view on zionism?
I too am feeling 34.
where,pray tell,is the video you are providing this
video for? G
Your videos are creeping closer and closer to 1939 and 1948 :(
I daresay Russia has the most oppression of Jewry
for the longest&it went up,often&went down,rarely
I want to see you collab with CallmeEzekiel 😁
What was said about the Elsass is not correct. A large part of the Catholic majority population initially rejected joining the German Empire, in complete contrast to the Protestants, and this tendency later intensified further with the Kulturkampf, however, the economic boom later caused this hostility to collapse completely. After a high phase in the mid ot the 80s, the party of protesters (P) (59,5% in 1897) and autonomists (AU) (15,4% in the same year) collabsed (both 0,0% in 1903). Ultimately, these parties no longer played any role in the political discourse. The workers became a new bloc in politics and the gap between Protestants and Catholics narrowed considerably. The economic boom turned the agricultural Elsass into a highly industrial region. From 1905 onwards there was no longer any political or social movement demanding reintegration into France. In particular, France's new secular constitution led to the alienation of France-friendly Catholics from France. Only a few French fanatics, who had kept their French passports in the Reichsland, demanded submission to the French yoke.
You know the origin of the word "hipster" refers to people who were "knowledgeable about Jazz", Guys wearing zoot suits in the 50s in Manhattan. The same Jazz clubs became imperative to heroin distribution for the Sicilian mafia associated with "The French Connection", Referring to the first global Heroin trade where opium was sent from Vietnam and Myanmar to Marseilles, Where it was first synthesized into Heroin, And distributed by La Cosa Nostra. The proceeds were laundered into shell corporations, And back o Europe to rebuild after the war through the Catholic church, And through Synagogues to Israel. Not to mention Meyer Lansky. Viva Las Vegas!
Happy birthday!
