The cold war is a period that is having a great influence on today's world but it doesn't get a lot of attention. It is even out of schools history program. Great channel, you are doing an amazing job.
Late 20th century be like:
Nation 1: hey! wanna do war?
Nation 2: Yeah sure! Quickly before the UN sees!
21st century: lol who cares about the UN
@@jackbharucha1475
UN has devolved into the lowest common denominator
it's a forum for dictators and human rights abusers to feign legitimacy
ironic
@@ibnyahud Like Donald Trump for example?
@@ibnyahud "United Nation is an accepted forum of international hatred" -Sir Humphrey
@@ibnyahud It's the goal of the UN to gather all leaders, no matter the nature of their power.
Critizing the UN is easy, for sure, but tell me, was it better before ? Which organization tried so hard to reduce poverty and wars ? I'm not talking about world leaders, I'm talking about the UNICEF, the UNESCO, the sanitarians missions against Ebola, etc, etc.
The UN is not responsible for US or Russians actions across the world.
In 1799-1801 the British helped repel the French invasion of Egypt. 150 years later the British and French would work together to invade. Interesting how things change.
Well...things would change in 150 years
@@aaronb2334 just like about any old power, what a surprise. Enemies of yesterday are your allies today, until the next time. It has been this way for millenias, it has nothing to do with the French in particular.
@@Shyning Exactly. And new rising power like USA or USSR (now Russia) did and do the same as well. The only rule is that there are no rules. However, as a French citizen myself, it is so sad to see France, a country which had just suffered the shame and pain of occupation by an invading force, still wanting to do the same colonialism shit after liberation. And let's not talk about Indochina or Algeria. Shame on the French Republic. Alas, there is no black and white in this quest of domination, just a shades of grey...
@@aaronb2334 I see the kind of prick I was trying to talk with, my bad, I thought you were someone with at least half a brain, excuse me for misunderstanding that point, I won't bother. You know what ? You're right, if that helps you feel secure about it.
Aaron B American Revolution?
Israel: what r u guys doing here?
UK/France: umm, what r u doing here?
Israel: I asked first.
daniel albo I know, I just thought it was funny how Egypt royal fucked themselves
daniel albo unfortunately they think Israel is the reason for everything as well. Example: terror attack in kabul, then those people will say it’s mossad. People are so brainwashed.
Peace ✌️ bro
@@Faith_Through_Struggle A good conspiracy theory sadly has some sparks of truth in it.
Meaning the Mossad did indeed some really f***ed up shit (killing scientists in other nations, kidnapping people for revealing dubious stuff Israel did, etc, etc).
Arnatar
For sure there is a level of truth like notably let’s say a handful of bad or specific actions that were necessary for national security, but these kinds of people blow it out of the water with Israel. They’re the ones who say that Jews call everyone antisemetic but then they turn around with antisemetic conspiracy theory’s that only target Jews in particular. 2020 is full of hypocrites.
Peace ✌️
@@Faith_Through_Struggle
Just wanted to point out that the former and by now relatively well documented breaches of souverenity and acts of terror the mossad and israel commited leave a fertile ground for conspiracy theories.
Maybe such actions seem to be a good idea for national security, but they create a dangerous precident.
The same logic Israel used to millitarily attack iranian atomic facilities, could be used for attacking the ones in Israel, since we know by now that Israel used and probably still uses those to build nukes.
The ending feels rushed. How did the UN, US and USSR decide to step in? What was at stake? Why did the UK and France comply?
USSR was always sided with Egypt againts Israel ... i think USSR was so close to interfere to the war they had to sign a peace agreement
because USSR threatened Nukes if the allies didn't lrsve their puppet alone, The US didn't want to drive More arab counties into the arms of the Soviets. Britain was very influenced by america at the time. Eg britain didn't have 100% control over their nuclear arsenal. France chose the longer approach of developing their bombs without American control so did not yet have the power to tell the USSR to mind their own business until 1960.
@@AlexC-ou4ju threat by nuke ? Ok buddy
@@vodkamblyat8525 'However, what really mattered was the reaction of the superpowers. Soviet premier Nikolai Bulganin warned that the Soviet Union was ready to fire nuclear-armed ballistic missiles at Britain, France and Israel unless those nations withdrew. This, too, was a deception: the Soviet Union’s ICBM force was mostly propaganda at this time. Not to mention hypocritical, given that just a month before, Soviet tanks had brutally suppressed Hungarian rebels in Budapest.'
The USA was never told about the plan by France and the UK. The USA was very angry and worried that the USSR would get involved, because both the USSR and USA had been trying to court Egypt. The USA built infrastructure and shipped tons of wheat to Egypt every year. The USSR shipped tons of weapons and trained Egyptian officers. Egypt was a strategic country that controlled a major artery to world trade. Both the USA and USSR didn't want France and the UK involved so they both demanded the UN stop the conflict
I don't usually comment but seriously the quality of your videos is getting better and better. Praise to you, I seriously enjoy your videos
Please, comment more often :-)
Unfortunatly the quality of the facts can sometimes be disputed.
@@andredeketeleastutecomplex which facts are incorrect?
Maybe the visual getting better but the facts are questionable. The Kadesh operation was driven and motivated by UK and France who coordinated their actions with Israel never guessing Israel will do so well. They later back stabbed Israel pretended they were not in the loop on this operation while they were the driving force. Please work more an historical accuracy and factual presentation.
@@andredeketeleastutecomplex Unfortunately the commenters who first dispute the quality of the facts in the thread or accuse the video of bias never say what exactly the problem is.

Despite the military defeats suffered during this event, this was a huge political win for Nasser. Far from leading to his overthrow, it cemented his reputation with the people as someone who was willing to stand up to the old empires. He was so popular after this that following the defeat in the 6 Day War, Nasser said he would resign, but the populace threatened to riot if he did.
Because Abdel Nasser is a hero who stood in the face of tyrants and preserved the Suez Canal from theft because it is an Egyptian channel
Absolute Gigachad. I don’t know any other politician who COULDNT resign even after losing a war because the people wouldn’t let him.

Suez Crisis 2021 - a ship got stuck
funny how this is also called the second arab israeli war. it was UK, France and Israel vs Egypt
2 key things you didn't discuss here. Firstly, future Canadian PM Lester B. Pearson was the one who formulated the ceasefire and was subsequently awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for his actions. Secondly, one of the sticking points of the ceasefire was that the Straits of Tiran were not to be blocked again under any condition. Egypt violated that in April 1967 to close Israel off from the Red Sea, effectively setting the casus belli for the Six Day War two months later.
based Egypt
True, but another video I saw mentioned that there were negotiations underway, to get Nasser to unblock the Straits. Israel didn't allow any room for negotiation and just shot first, asked questions later. The other thing is that Nasser only blocked the Straits, because of disproportionate Israeli attacks in the Golan Heights.
My Grandad almost ended up lynched because of the Suez Crisis. He was a British man working for Shell in Cairo as troops were landing. Thankfully he saw which way the wind was blowing and got out before any angry mobs formed
My grandad was based in Port Said with the Egyptian army to what was supposed to be a boring post watching the ships go by. Instead a few months later Nasser nationalized the Suez, and he found himself fighting French and British paratroopers while he himself was woefully underequiped for what even the army thought was going to be a glorified policing job lol
Boris Erdogan Since YT removed my last comment I’ll go after your idiotic comment in a different manner
What country hasn’t been imperialistic at some point? What country are you from cos unless you are a Polynesian who occupied empty islands you got some explaining to do sonny
Working for a company that operates in a foreign country isn’t stealing. Its called business. He worked as an LPG salesman so had nothing to do with resource extraction.
Since I don’t want this comment yeeted too I’ll just say in response to you wanting one of my family to be lynched because of your smooth brained interpretation of imperialism: I hope you get eaten from the inside out by parasitic wasps.
Boris Erdogan Well I did a cursory search of your surname and if it is your real one your name is Turkish and you can automatically shut the fuck up on colonialism.
If not you can be directed to my previous comment where I state that my grandad did nothing wrong, he was not some imperialist he was just working abroad for an oil company that operates all over the world. You then wished him dead, Die in a fire.
As for “muh history, muh colonialism” I have studied the British empire as part of my A levels. Nice attempt to compare the Spanish empire to the British though under the label of “European colonialism”. Its a lot more complicated than “redcoat man bad”.
@Boris Erdogan And I suppose this guy's grandfather was responsible for those tens of millions of deaths, yes? Why don't you lynch every Brit working abroad while you're at it?
Boris Erdogan YES you fucking twat I studied that shit for two years What I’m saying is that my grandfather contributed nothing to that with his work.
The moment the British and French realized they had been replaced as the dominant powers in the world. The time of the Lion and Tricolor was over. The age of the Eagle and Bear had begun.
@Charmingly Cynical An imbecilic comment. What will end the US (hopefully since I am part of the other 95% of the world) will be the broad coalition of the anti-monopolar forces. We shall prevaim by mass and not by quality.
PewPewPlasmagun the USA can’t pay for their welfare tho. USA has 12 years maximum until they have to cut all government services to pay for welfare and Medicare. Haha can’t wait. The welfare state is fucking cancer.
@Horizon585 I mean that's standard operating procedure for any power. Decry what your competitors do to rally support against them and gradually destroy them, then do the exact same thing but put a different label on it. That's been the way it's been done since the Assyrians.

I love that you're doing conflicts that happened after WW2, while they aren't as big or major as other major conflicts during the Cold War, this is the best
The animation on this video is absolutely exquisite. Coupled with the amazing storytelling and content of the videos, I keep getting impressed. Keep up the great work guys
Too bad they left out some important facts
I feel Kings and Generals should bring out the fact that both superpower at the time were angry with UK, France and Israel for invading Egypt.
Soviet premier Nikolai Bulganin warned that the Soviet Union was ready to fire nuclear-armed ballistic missiles at Britain, France and Israel unless those nations withdrew. Equally shocking was the reaction of the United States. Eisenhower and Secretary of State John Foster Dulles threatened economic sanctions against Israel if it failed to withdraw from the Sinai. It also threatened Britain’s oil supply (Saudi Arabia did embargo Britain and France) and considered selling off British bonds, which would have devastated the British economy. A UN resolution, spurred by the United States, called for a ceasefire and withdrawal of foreign forces.
There was a funny fact about this crisis…
The British and French first wanted the Israeli forces to invade Sinai and then drop in as peacekeepers and form a DMZ at the Suez Canal (held by them of course).
The terms called for both sides to pull back 10km away from the canal, which kinda sucked when they announced this while Israeli forces were still 40+km away from the canal.
Aren't you speaking of the 67 war? This video covers events before that.
Thanks K&G for continuing to share your knowledge and expertise. Good stuff!
Another quality upload by K&G! Super episode team!
This is one of the best clips I've ever seen from K&G, you're awesome!
This channel is not only underrate it also have one of the best animation for history video on CZcams. You guys deserve so much more. Keep up the good work
Absolutely agreed!
Throughout the invasion, all ships present in the canal were sunk or scuttled on the orders of Nasser, effectively blocking off the canal for several months.
Wow! Very informative. Love the graphic simulation. Thanks!💖😎
History is endless, and so are your amazing videos...hope to see more soon😁😁
The production quality on this is stellar
Thanks!
Almost 1 million, since the beginning, tks for everything
Thanks for the upload. Very concise military view. I had to fill in the political angles.
Raise the hat and honor to the brave Egyptians. They fought face to face with sophisticated military weapons. Despite their limited capabilities and the lack of weapons. This war is an example of the miscreants meeting in this world
Epic History TV did a great job coverin overhaul history and why Seuz Crisis take place, and as usual Kings and Generals did a fantastic job which I will always enjoy

Eisenhower sold Eden down the river while Macmillan stabbed him in the back.
Somarik Green Eisenhower later regretted his decision so there is that. The threat from the soviets was all bluster anyway. The US expected the UK to involve itself in every Cold War intervention that the Americans wanted, yet completely sold out their closest Ally at the cusp of victory. Complete shambles.
Proud Egyptian and descendant of the brave city of Port Said .. My Grandfather (who wasn't a military man) hold any weapon he could get and fought with the people of the city against the invaders .. even women helped in the fight.
It's a proud memory that my grandfather shared in defeating 3 countries altogether.
@mina samir
Only Arabs can sing victoriously after a humiliating military defeat ! 🤣🤣🤣
Pretending and repeating that Egypt won that war against France, GB and Israel (disregarding all historical facts!) does not make it true! 😉
Algerians also pretend they won a war against the French army... 😝 but, as facts matter, can’t name one place where they defeated the French troops. In fact, the only guerrilla warfare that was ever won with 99% of the local guerilleros (fellaghas of the FLN) « neutralized » by the end of 1961.

These documentary videos just get better and better and better!!!!
Your videos are amazing, thank you.
Ahh, it's good to see you guys branching out into other era's of war. I do hope that as a team you don't feel you have covered most of the ancient conflicts so are shifting focus to modern era though? I had high hopes yous would cover the whole series of conflicts in the Sicilian wars.
This video was good but ended abruptly, a roundup of why this spelled the end of the British imperialist power was missed.
The most interesting thing about this operation is that the most interesting things about this operation happened after it, and especially before it, not during it.
I read a biography about Moshe Dayan, and the discussions and negotiations between Israel, UKread past and France are simply fascinating.
Very well presented documentary!!!
Those IAF Mustangs certainly have a distinct engine sound!
Love your History videos, sir, especially of the post-WWII Asian Wars. Could you do one on 1965 and 1971 Indo-Pak Wars or about Vietnam? Thank you.
I've always believed that Egypt should have sided with the USA after 1952....none of this would have happened. We had a narcissist son of a ***** ruling the country with a bunch of wannabe- uneducated officers and they introduced the concept of nepotism in Egypt. This concept ultimately ruined the country and its army. Brigadier generals were assigned according to their loyalty and not according to their qualifications. Shortly after that, all of Egypt was being assigned jobs accordingly and the country fell into dismay and chaos.
A very sad but true documentary.
This is the sad truth about Egypt. The country had so much promise after WW2. In the 1950s Egypt had the same level of economic development as South Korea. But political mismanagement squandered Egypt's potential.
Naser in Egypt and Assad in Syria were behind so many tragedies in the region.
Egypt SHOULD have sided with the USSR
@Azzam 111 yeah...
If the Muslim Brotherhood was in power in the 50s before their corruption in the 70s, Egypt would be a great place to live. It would be like a less sanctioned Iran; it would be like a religious Europe.
Excellent history. Thank you.
I love the fact that the planes and ships look really like in real life, you are improving day by day !
I dropped my jaw when I saw those jets taking off from the carrier ships🔥
so you r not going fix it back then ?
these graphics are amazing and this needs to be an actual strategy game, it even looks like ruse 2
Pls give us a second RUSE there is hardly anyone on the current multiplayer which is sad
Great Video again. Love the animations. :)
Top notch video presentations bravo
This was really fascinating to watch. I never wondered what happened around this time. But I did know that it was a bloody affair. But it's nice to know exactly what happened. My compliments to those who made this video a reality.
And when you saw that, did you know why Britain is hated? Did you understand that Britain is just an empire that fed on the blood of peoples (innocent civilians)
I love your videos, thank you so much!
The graphics are really sick. Better than many flagship real time strategy games. Way to go guys.
Anyone here after a container ship blocked the canal?
yup
Funny thing is. Egypt during that war blocked the canal with ships from both ends. Something the video missed and it was a key factor in keeping the British israel and the French at bay.
Who is here since the evergreen ship that got stuck...
Your content is so much better then one from my country
I enjoy every episode and have hope you will continue this :D
What I really enjoy is how the narrator doesnt even try to properly pronounce foreign names and just uses his (presumably) US pronunciation! GJ man! GJ! Without the names as text I would not know half the time what he is talking about.
Why didn't you talk about the Egyptian Navy Torpedo boats that could sink a British destroyer and a French battleship? Or the Egyptian Airborne defensive operation in Suez city?
I fuckin' smashed that like button just for that intro animation! Well done boys!
another excellent video, keep it up!
Impressive presentation!
Respect 🇪🇬 from 🇦🇪 ❤
Despite the arms deal with Czechoslovakia, the majority of Egyptian forces were armed with American, British and French armaments.. This created the possibility of frequent accidental attacks upon friendly units for the Israeli forces, as both armies used Sherman and AMX-13 tanks.
This video is beautiful the maps are fantastic
Excuse me, if you guys are recruited by gaming or movie firms in the future, please dont leave us...your videos were fascinating since i started watching them and it gets better and better...your documentaries are the only ones which managed to make me stay awake watching...
Another sign that the French Empire was declining was their war in Vietnam that they lost, and the war in Algeria
To be fair with them nobody would've won in Vietnam ( not even the most powerful nation on earth ) , with Algeria technically they won the war but the public opinion was appalled by the methods and the violence so they choose to give it independence.

Excellent work
The aircraft taking off from the carrier close scene is the best you guys animated so far. Although i enjoy your videos immensely, i still find the same criticism points redundant. If you guys can just put numbers of infantry, tanks, artillery under the division, and how they changed after each battle, perhaps you'd earn that extra star to take your videos from 4 to 5 stars. Anyway, this channel remains one of my favorites..
When Britain and France realized they no longer ruled the world.
I don't this Britain has realized yet. Proof: Brexit.
20quid Dude, Brexit has very little to do with Britain wanting to rule the world. There are various factors, but overall, the people who voted to leave, wanted UK independence from EU. People in Brussels making laws for Britain didn’t sit right with many people, the handling of the refugee crisis didn’t help that either.
Many people also just wanted to send a message to parliament and the government, since they felt that those higher ups stopped paying attention to their demands anymore.
And the Brexit issue has highlighter the many problems in the inner workings of UK parliament, which citizens wanted to change.
@Marcelo Henrique Soares da Silva It's not about the size of the military or its quality, but rather about how you can leverage it for your political benefits. There was a time the US wouldn't face any serious opposition in most areas by any other power, either by itself or by proxy.- when after the fall of the USSR , both Russia and China could not project their power either economically, politically or militarily outside a limited region. Things have considerably changed since, and considering Russia seems to be on route to getting two of its chief goals completed - dismantling the EU and NATO - they probably won't become better. And it matters less that you can win a battle, and more that there's the possibility of actually going into it, with its associated risks.

thought this one would be on your Cold War channel
enjoy both channels
Paul Cate III The military operations are always in this channel. The Cold War Channel covers the political aspects of the Cold War.
Yeah - in this one, which individual brigade moved where took quite a lot of space. On the other hand, the UN talks and their results, ending the war, more or less dropped down from heaven above without much context and explanations.
On the Cold War channel, it'll be the other way 'round, I guess.
While the military action visuals are cool, it feels like it was almost irrelevant to the crisis. The end was basically "oh but whoops the crisis was actually resolved in the UN" and wasn't really covered much. Would love to see a follow up video on the actual diplomatic stakes.
British getting away with war crimes nothings new
