- "Valkyrie" is a meticulous thriller based on a large-scale conspiracy within the German army to assassinate Hitler, leading to a failed bombing attempt on July 20, 1944. At the center of the plot was Col. Claus von Stauffenberg, played here by Tom Cruise as the moving force behind the attempted coup, which led to 700 arrests and 200 executions, including von Stauffenberg's. Because we know Hitler survived, the suspense is centered in the minds of the participants, who call up the Reserve Army and actually arrest SS officials before discovering that their bomb did not kill its target.

Your grandfather was a honourable man. A true patriot and a soldier.
A true hero. It takes amazing courage to do what your grandfather did. He has a special place in heaven.
Sir it's an honor to see a grandson of one of the brave men. If the world today had brave men like him.
Great documentary. I can see the family resemblance.
I send prayers and blessings to Heaven to be received by your grandfather, Claus von Stauffenberg. He was a righteous man and a hero to be admired and respected, the world over. May Col.Stauffenberg rest in peace, in divine love, and in power. God Bless him.
Respect to your grandfather.

Outstanding mini documentary
Respect from Denmark 🇩🇰👆
I knew right away that he was Konstanza's son. He looks a lot like his mother. His uncles' for instance, Berthold look just like his maternal grandmother.
Thank you Philip for sharing the heroism of the resistence members!!
I had goosebumps the whole time I watched your mini documentary. And please know that, your grandfather and all the other men who stood with him will always be remembered as the few brave souls who stood up against Hitler.
"You did not bear the shame.
You resisted.
Sacrificing you life
For Freedom, Justice, and Honor."
Ps. Today is Adolf Hitler's death anniversary.
You look like your grand father. He was cool guy.
Your grandfather is a true hero.
No, he was another Nazi, who wanted to replace Hitler to secure war gains. He failed like Adolf.
Indeed....! Your Grandfather is really brave man and Hero of this world.
I am fan of his courage.
A worldwide hero you should be the proudest man in the world
salute & respect colonel stuffenburg
Your grandfather was a true hero.
A hero to who exactly? To traitors thats who
@@rdmountford3132 to the people of german, europe and the others who want peace!
Stauffenberg was not a hero, he was far more complex than that. He supported facets of Nazi ideology, was anti semtic, but he opposed the Holocaust. He was worried Germany would fall to the Soviet Union and wanted to keep Eastern Europe under German rule - those were the terms he was seeking from the Western Allies. Hero is the wrong word, used by people who don't understand this complex man or the German resistance movement.
@@DannyBoy777777 Ah yeah he was. Anyone that tried to do what he did knowing the consequences of failure is a true hero. Try not to use your own personal standards as a measure of heroism.
@@charger348 That doesn't make any sense and doesn't refute what I said.
Respect from. Philippines 🇵🇭 great man!
what an honour to be staufenberg's grandchild
Over 77,000 German people we’re assassinated by the Nazi’s during WW2 for being part of the German Resistance movement, they would also radio London with information on what Berlin was up to because high ranking personnel we’re also part of the German Resistance movement. We should also remember Sophie and Hans Scholl and the rest of the White Rose Movement. All the attempts on Hitlers life and not one succeeded it just doesn’t make sense, we the Allies should of sent a unit of Commandos in to kill him ( My Late Grandfather was a Commando ). The 77,000 German Resistance movement were extremely brave and should be remembered for ever more and anyone who mocks them should be jailed !!!!!!!!!
Your grandfather was an Angel and patriot.
Your grandfather name will never shall forget
Your grandfather is a real man
A great German guy!! Brave!!
That was not an act of hunger for power nor should he be described as a traitor. This was a man who cared very much for human lives already lost then, and the fear of the imminent deaths of many more. For that reason, his action is justified! He is a hero!
Yes. Of course
Your grandfather was a hero. Rest in Power Claus von Stauffenberg. 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
"We must show the world that not all of us are like him. Otherwise, this will always be Hitler's Germany."
Brave men who gave all they had
Your grandfather tried to safe the Germany whatever left at that time but he could not succeed anyway I salute to his efforts and ultimate sacrifice.
Great Man 🙏! Its an honor also to be from Bamberg like Stauffenberg!
A time of Pure Evil.
What a pity the plot failed.
So many innocents would have been spared as a consequence.
🙏
Sadly by the time of the July 20th plot, even if they were successful, it would not have mattered as Stalin wouldn't have accepted anything short of unconditional surrender and total submission to the allies.
Hero man, never forget the world specially the German.
A FEW GOOD MEN!!!!!
Mate He was a Great German.
Your grandfather is great guy
The book burning was depicted in the movie Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade.
Philip Sir your grandfather was a hero as were all the men who worked with him attempting to kill Hitler. God bless you Sir
He is a role model who will continue to inspire. Which is important, for the struggle never ends.
A great man
Your grand father was a true Heroe
Salute! Great man. Thank you for your story.❤
Respect from Mexico 🇲🇽 ⭐
I hope that the conspirators who were executed served as a source of pride for Germans after the war
Until this day!
Claus von Stauffenberg ❤️
my respect to Philipp he carries a very heavy burden looking like his powerful, intimidating grandfather
Traitor to his country....what about the four officers he murdered in that meeting?
What a resemblance with his grandfather. He could have played that role.
Philipp carries a very heavy burden looking like his powerful/intimidating grandfather
I salute your grandfather sir !
These men were not "conspirators" per se, they were men, brave men who took a chance to change history and stop tyranny. The words of Teddy Roosevelt are quite appropriate here, as these men were "the man in the arena".
"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat."
Teddy Roosevelt
I salute u sir.......
my respects to your grandfather and your family godbless
👍
God rest their souls! my sympathy to these super brave german men's families
i honor your family..
Why did their boss have them executed? I thought, he'd have been involved with the plot too?
He was involved with the plot, but he had them executed to try to cover this up, and also out of mercy. If he hadn’t quickly executed them, the SS would’ve come over to arrest them and torture them in a process of interrogation.
@@sanderbenning1182 HE HIMSELF WAS EXECUTED SEVERAL MONTHS LATER.
Oh he was executed too
wish your grand father plan succeeded. he honored forever. these words my great grand father American ww2vet 82 airborne. #neveragain.
olkaa onnellisia isästänne,hän on kauneudessa,näette vielä,,hieno mies,ottakaa kaikki opiksenne
Phillip, please, from now and then, you are a young, smart and handsome guy, dont call those people conspirators, say something like militaries, officers, etc.
Please ! Thanks in advance !
Man fantastis😘
what a brave man !
Claus Von Stauffenberg is still awesome ❤
he look like his grandfather..
What is not remembered about Claus von Stauffenberg is the fact that he has earlier enthusiastically welcomed Hitler's appointment as Chancellor in 1933 and approved most of his policies. When the war broke out, he served as an officer in the German army's invasion of Poland, France and other campaigns.
Regarding Poland, he described Poles as 'an unbelievable rabble' of 'Jews and mongrels' who were 'only comfortable under the knout'. He advocated for the systematic colonization of occupied Poland by Germans. To him, Poles were a bunch of sub-humans that should be only treated as slaves. There are proofs that he hasn't liked mass executions during invasion and occupation, yet he wasn't against general oppression.
The only reason why Stauffenberg and most of his fellow conspirators turned on Hitler, whom they have ardently supported until 1943, was because they felt that the war was going badly. Stalingrad and other failures in both fronts convinced them that if they won't do something drastic, like assassinating Hitler and replacing him with a different leader, newly acquired territories in the East and everything they have stolen could be lost.
The fact that modern Germany considers Stauffenberg a national "hero" is appalling and disturbing to say the least. German apologists go to great lengths to point out how he hasn't shown as much hatred towards Jews as many other Germans and Austrians at that time (he still despised them and seen as worse than ethnically or culturally Germanic people, just wasn't so strong about it and rather wasn't for their complete physical elimination); forgetting that what he lacked in anti-Semitism comparing to others, he was making up with equal or even bigger level of anti-Slavism (he wasn't for eradicating all of them neither, but seen in Slavs nothing more than potential slaves).
The conspirators' plan was to end the fight on two fronts and make peace with "the West", even at the cost of giving up many territories obtained during the war (III German Reich's western border would return to that of 1939); but it was to focus only on the eastern front, and they haven't wanted to withdraw from the occupied countries of Central and Eastern Europe. Beside recognizing the stupidity of fighting on two fronts at the same time, they also rightfully blamed Hitler and his close circle for many strategic mistakes.
PS Claus von Stauffenberg was approached by some German officers who were more truly against Nazism, war and Hitler first time already in 1939 and again in 1940, but then Germany was winning, so he had no interest in joining them (although at least as a plus he hasn't denounced them).
ah, stutenburge
My respect to The brave Pirate of the Wehrmacht
We need men with the character of your Grandfather in the USA.
Demn, you do have a same face just like your grandfather
Long Live Sacred Germany!

Heii e
The German army's goal was to conquer the world begining with Europe (Nazi atrocities aside), your grandfather took part in that effort. I would love to hear your explanation that would shed a positive light on the merits of being an officer in such an army, with such a goal.
While my family lost dozens of members in the holocaust, I am amused when Germans today say it was not the regular Wehrmacht involved in the atrocities. This is untrue, as there is much evidence of the contrary found in German film from the time. But let's say for the moment these deniers are right -- I repeat my request:
I would love to hear your explanation that would shed a positive light on the merits of being an officer in such an army that sets out to conquer the world.
Are all Jews in Israel apart of the Palestinian murders or Jews globally indicated in that apartheid atrocity?? nope? then HOW DARE YOU!!! Those involved in the Atrocities of the War were orchestrated by the Schutzstaffel predominantly the Allgemeine SS, SS-Totenkopfverbände and the Sicherheitsdienst! Are all American troops responsible for the civilian deaths in Iraq? are all IDF soldiers responsible for any murders of Palestinians? see where i'm going with this? yeah!!!!
@@EscanV You made a substitution thesis. Keep in mind that any army is criminal if it commits unilateral aggression against an independent state. Therefore, every active soldier, and especially an officer of such an army, bears part of the responsibility for the crime against peace. The only refusal to use such a policy of conquering foreign countries would be a real heroic and human act of integrity.
To those saying he was a hero etc, let’s not get carried away. Where was this indignation when they invaded Poland in 1939 in alliance with Russia and enslaved and murdered their people? Set up prison camps that killed millions wiped half of the populations of Serbia and the Balkans off the map. Where was this when three million soldiers raped their way through their former ally Russia and starved the Dutch? This all happened well before 1944 when things suddenly didn’t add up. Only when Hitler became clearly delusional in war strategy did the ‘line get drawn’. Where would Staffenberg be if the nazis had won? Probably living, drinking and eating dinner in a murdered family’s mansion in France. Context. He’s no hero, at best he only saw the light and acted on it.
