- In our previous historical animated documentaries we have covered the battles of Teutoburg Forest bit.ly/2WsImXE and Idistaviso bit.ly/2V5FNcw as part of the Germanic resistance, but other parts of the Empire had its own revolts. By the early 60s AD religious and political situation in Judea became dangerous and the Great Jewish Revolt also called the First Jewish-Roman War started in 66 AD. One of the most dramatic battles of the war was the siege of Jerusalem in 70 AD.

@Vae Victis OK sorry 🙏
"General! We have a problem. The Jews build a lot of defensive walls into the city!"
"That's much unfortunate. We can't let them have more walls than us. Build a wall around the city then!"
Whoever has more walls wins!
Sometimes I think that somewhere during Military School Caesar got into the wrong class and ended up studying Architecture. The rest is history.
@@federicom Most likely he picked it to avoid some other class.
@Fady Al Qaisy Ashkenazis were forced north after the temple fell. Palestinia was a label given to all ethnic groups of the region, because the Banu Rum got Jizya based on region, not religion. The Mizrahi tried to defend but most of their forces were in Persia dealing with internal struggles. The Sefardim is another name you may have heard. These were the captured Jews sold to safety/enslavement to Sefard or as the Banu Rum called Iberia, now known as Spain and Portugal. The Banu Falasha were also there and had to flee south to Nubia and later Ethiopia. There were also those that fled into Sinai later establishing the Himyar Empire and starting the Battle of the Elephant to take Mecca. Salam brother.
Agent Synthetic Someone actually knows history of second Jewish diaspora. Bravo.
Legionaries: get slaughtered in battle
Roman general: meh..
*Eagle standard is lost*
General: "KILL THEM ALL"
I forget where I heard this but some channel explained that very thing. "The Eagle was an enduring symbol of Romes might and the general who lost it was a shame for losing it and not worth avenging because he did not have the might to defend it." Something like that
Romans: built a massive wall in three days
Trump: is it possible to learn this power?
Wfng great remark🤣🤣😆😆🤣🤣

Citrine,
All those democratic celebrities certainly understand wall building, and in shorter time.
I wonder why they did so? Hmmm.

Well done gentlemen great recap of the siege! Its a huge one to cover and you really did it justice. I should know since I still haven't finished my last episode in a series on this siege.
Thank you very much!

"This massive undertaking, typically, finished in only 3 days by the romans" 4 emperors a years but damn good builders
IIRC there was a competition between legions initiated by the commander, who'd build the most in a day.
People don't realize how much they are capable of doing when working together fiercely, Let alone a couple thousands of men working like madman not like today's lazy ass bois.
Maybe rome was built in a day!

8 km walls with fortifications in 3 days? someone fire our lazy municipal head and his team of govt employees. they can't build a 4km road in 3 days with modern equipment. with modern equipment roman soldiers could have build that wall in like 15 hours .lol .

@Adam Price You speak the truth.
@@mawlinzebra fr
I'm not sure what's more impressive, the ability of the Romans to do what they did, or how long the Jews were able to hold out under such dire circumstances.
Sieges always favour the defender, especially when their numbers were as large as here (20,000 soldiers).
Most powerful Empire vs bunch of farmers and merchants. Who would win? After surprisingly long fighting romans.
@@EndOfSmallSanctuary97 Especially Jerusalem built on top a hill surrounded by ravines with 3 wall systems effectively and 2 fortresses (Antonia and Temple) inside the city
We could have beaten them if the damn idiots hadn't burned the fucking food supplies.
A statement I read somewhere sums it up pretty well:
The true strenth of the roman legionaires was that they were willing to work like slaves rather than giving up.
I'm always amazed by roman's troops building abilities.
ikr they were like the army corps of engineers, only they were the same guys who laid the actual siege

JEEEEEEEEEEWS
That was some 60 yrs later, the Bar Kokhva revolt.
can you imagine the amount of organization and mechanization it would have taken to tear down those walls?
IT'S DAMN IMPRESSIVE WHAT THE ROMANS WERE CAPABLE OF
Agreed, their siege warfare wasn't eclipsed until the gunpowder artillery became a thing.
Except for those local troops, amirght? Those Syrian legions were an embarrassment, the way they let the Jews cut them down and take their aquila.
In one of his novels about Traianus, the spanis author Santiago Posteguillo talks about the father of the emperor who was a legatus under the command of Vespasianus and gives a description of the siege.
nevermind their EIGHT KILOMETER miracle wall they built in like 3 days... without any kind of power tools...
@@KingsandGenerals oh my gosh thx reading my comment
Have to admire the efficiency of the Roman legionaries. building a wall with 13 fortresses surrounding a walled city, and only in 3 DAYS ? no wonder the only thing that could destroyed Rome was itself only.
maybe it was some sort of wooden enclave i doubt the built a decent wall in 3 days
*Laughs in Huns and Germanic tribes*
Don't forget that they used captured men to do some of this work
@@flame7047
*Laughs in Marcomannic Wars and Battle of The Catalaunian Plains*
@@christianjocson5509 They all came to pick and feast on what's left of the empire, that's what I'm saying. After "Pax Romana", Rome went through a series of domestic turmoils: from having 5 leaders claiming themselves as Emperors, to having a mad man as emperor who burned down Rome. None of those tribes were ever capable of taking down Rome at its peak.
Rome's strength was not in their army's invincibility, but rather its ability to form armies after armies to crush the enemy with numbers and discipline no matter how many losses Rome suffer. The continuous civil wars ultimately drained Rome off of its treasury and man power, meaning Rome has lost its advantage over other tribal groups. The Roman Legions at that point no longer able to stop the Goths, the Vandals, the Huns and other tribes from conquering them.
The Bar Kochba revolt -considerably later when Hadrian was emperor was even bigger and initially successful -an independent Israel survived for one year -that's when the Romans got really serious and deported all Jews and renamed the area Palestine and Jerusalem renamed Aelia Capitolina.
I don't have any college degrees but I think if you research the use of the name "Palestine" you will find that it wasn't the Romans who named it.
@@rogermetzger7335 Philistia or Palestine was originally only the coastal area of the area -the Philistines or ancient Palestinians were part of the Sea peoples who tried to invade Egypt circa 1300 BC but were repulsed -some then settled on the Israel coast and became perennial enemies of the Jews as the biblical accounts of David,Goliath,Samson and Saul testify.Palestine was never the inland area only a thin strip of the coast -cities like Gaza belonged to the Philistines -the Romans,in order to rub salt into the wound after the eventual suppression of the bar Kochba revolt renamed the inland areas as Palestina after the Jews ancient enemies.
@@kaloarepo288 Thanks.
@sneksnekitsasnek You are probably thinking of the Rothschild family which was later into the Nineteenth century -they had a branch in Naples and even the Catholic church was forced to borrow money from them or go bankrupt!
@Yildirim eh were they tho...
Influence when ... as the Hebrews remained existing for a much longer time than the Philistines
Edit
Especially since they were destroyed by the Assyrians , decimated by the Babylonians and lost their ethnic culture by the time the Persians came along. They failed to have the .. weird gumption of the Jews and failed to really have any influence post early Iron Age
As a veteran of recent wars I can't imagine what it must have been like for these soldiers, rebels & professionals alike. It's one thing to siege a city like Fallujah, Baqubah or Ramadi w/ modern weapons but it's another animal completely when you have to fight hand to hand & truly be dependent on the person on the left & right of you whereas today's you can be a bit more independent.
Finally, after waiting years for Invicta to finnish his series, I know how the siege ends. Still want to see the Invicta to start finnishing his projects though hahah
Very true Peter, we're ALL waiting for Invicta to get Part 4 made.
Im also waiting...
Really? I don't like his delivery. Not a good narrator
YAH21 i just turned that age lol
Yes! Been waiting for so long for Invicta's Jerusalem series to end! Please Lord!🙏
A very well crafted, researched and well narrated documentary on the 70AD Siege of Jerusalem.
Thank you, my friend!
@Fady Al Qaisy ancient Palestinians come from Greece, not Arabia. Ramses documents provided information they come from the Mediterranean as they were Sea people's.
@Fady Al Qaisy Palestinians have never conquered anybody in history. Stop with the Arabinization of culture, just cause you want it to appear that way does not make facts true. Ancient Palestinian are from the Mediterranean and that's a fact, they settled there. By the way Israel has never been Arab either, it's a Israelite / Jewish ancestral homeland for God's people, again not the Arab people who believe in Muhammad or the Quran.
Is something not described as Arab by virtue of its definition being Arabic or in other words part of the Arabian people who stem from the Arabic peninsula? Hence if as you say, the mediterranean settlements were already there, then, they cannot be Arabic since by and large the Arabic expansion began in the 7th century AD, hence the indigenous people being Mesopotamian, Balkan, Anatolian, North African, Iberian, Gaulic, etc? Were not the people of the Levant also related to migratory tribes from Egypt and Mesopotamia in particular spawning for instance the Phoenicians?
Fady Al Qaisy that region stretching from Egypt to Gaza region was egypt, then Palestine from Jerusalem to around Damascus and then Syria up to Antioch from there to Byzantium/Constantinople/Istanbul it was Asia Minor. Refer to the works of Manius of Tyre, Pompius Mela etc who were cartographers.
Geeze, in all the sieges I've ever seen on these battle play-by-play channels, that had to be one of the hardest I've ever seen the defenders fight.
The Jews believed they were doing God's will, and that the promised Messiah would come down for them any moment and lead them to crush the Roman army.
Unfortunately, the Messiah had already come, but they rejected him. The Siege of Jerusalem was really the Jews' blood feud with God.
Jerusalem was one of the most difficult city fortresses to take during that time. It also happened to be a big city, which meant more manpower and resources.
@@googlesucks478 Based
Of course they did, the jews knew very well what happens when you lose, their entire people were enslaved and invaded countless times.
They also clashed with the hellenic nations and romans specifically a few times before this siege so they knew the europeans were especially brutal occupiers at that time.
@@googlesucks478 No-one asked
I have one bad thing to say. the Judean rebels didnt use arabian/eastern style gear like shown here, they used a mix of hellenistic and captured roman gear.
@SkiperPlays Noted and my mistake! Thank you for your feedback.
I think they chose to show Judean rebels that way to clearly different from Roman soldier for the viewer.
What do you mean by Eastern/Arabian?! They are two different things.
@@LionKing-ew9rm They did used Eastern or Arabian style gear? Why so mad
Hes probably thinking eastern as far east oriental
When I had watched "The Life of Brian" for the first time I didn't understand the joke with the conflict between various organizations like "The People's Front of Judea" and "The People's Judean Front". Now, seeing how Jews bickering with each other all the time, even at the face of direct Roman threat, it seems to be kind of obvious.
Also, Legio XII Fulminata survived the Battle of Beth Horon, despite loosing their aquila.
'titus, bring popcorn' ...vespasian
You forgot the Judean People's Front.
It’s a joke about Trotskyists within the British far left.
At 2:07 it says "Romanes eunt domus". You'll get it if you've watched the movie.
An intresting note - Titus's second in command during the siege - formerly a procurator of Judea and later governor of Egypt and commander of the Praetorian Guard under the Flavians - was one mentioned in this video, Tiberius Julius Alexander, born to a Jewish family in Alexandria.
Just found your channel, what an awesome video, detail, maps, graphics. Only 40 years or so after Jesus, the tumultion before and after. I was pretty impressed by the Jewish resistance against such a formidable Roman power. Incredible period of history. Having visited Jerusalem, the long history is absolutely overwhelming. The fight and suffering at times for this city is truly unique. Thank you very much, very insightful

Human beings acting violent like wild animals. Greed. !
You left out the disastrous assault on Ascalon where the Rebels lost half of their entire army (20 000 men) and many of their best commanders to a single Ala of cavalry
that and the burning of Jerusalem's food stores is what doomed doomed them.
Josephus of course describes the initial sieges in the Galilee and the Jews were dumping boiling olive oil on the Romans from the ramparts, geez! I sure stuff like that and their persistent defensive sapping really pissed off the Romans!
@@ibnyahud fucking ouch
Tbf the whole Syrian legion(6,000) was decimated by the rebels at the battle of Beth Horon.
@@elysium1384 yeah but considering multiple legions were in the area and they had better armor and supply, its fair to say the romans still had a massive advantage.

Some extra background:
The Siccari and Zealots were not the "rabbis"...i.e. "Perushim" (=Pharisees).
The rabbis did not want the rebellion and wanted the status quo of Roman rule knowing they would never defeat Vespasian as well as the fact they were allowed to maintain Temple worship.
The leading rabbi at the time Yohanon Ben Zakai, after failing to dissuade the rebels, managed to escape the city and meet with Vespasian, offering to withdraw those loyal to his faction, for which Vespasian promised to not destroy the Pharisee center of learning in Jamnia and not exterminate the line of Rabban Gamliel who was reportedly a descendant of the ancient Israelite dynasties.
While the Romano-Jewish historian Josephus may be bias (being actually patronized in an official sense by the Flavius family presumably for his services in the war), he claims that Titus did not want the Temple destroyed but between the fire and blood lust it was too late.
@Fady Al Qaisy
Ashkenazim, Sefardim, and modern Mizrachim did not yet exist! Ashkenazim and Sefardim are the Jews of Rome that split into the 2 group after the Jewish diaspora following Hadrian.
There were only Judean Jews, Babylonian - Persian Jews and merchant Jews among former Carthaginian posts and Rome.
And the differences between Jews and Arabs were widely known and distinguished in contemporaneous historical accounts...Herod was half Idumean half Arab, which was a source of contention among some Jews. You are repeating historical revisionism in the name of religious supremacy doctrine...you aren't going to wash over thousands of years of history because it bothers your ethno-supremacist sensibilities
@@ibnyahud you are incorrect the ashkenazim are not descendants of Israelite settlers Rome, they are descendants of Turkic Khazars, slavs and the sephardim who migrated into north and eastern europe which was known as Aškenaz, The Sephardim are suoposadly the descendants of Isrealites from the babylonian exile as well as other colonies from around the meditarrenean and kasari converts the history of these people is so convoluted and mythologised its difficult to believe they are the legitamate descendants of the Ancient Hebrews
@@TheCritic9196 that has been thoroughly dis-proven as ironically communist Zionist propaganda.
Primarily from continuous historical accounts of the settlement and movement of Jews in the empire until this day...i.e. Jews didn't just disappear all of a sudden. Also from the tremendous corpus of Jewish writings continuously since antiquity. Also genetically from thousands of peer reviewed studies. And also from linguisitics...Yiddish...the day to day lingua franca of Ashkenazim contains ZERO words of Turkic origin.. How did an entire people group FORGET their Turkic language and learn a Germanic language as well as Hebrew and Aramaic. Why do Ashkenazim keep the same customs as other Jews.
Also Sefarad refers to the Iberian peninsula and nothing other....Jews from Babylon are known as Mizrachim "Easterners".
@@ibnyahud
but would you agree that the western jews, ashkenazis, are not semitic? they look white.
@@mogts
Most Ashkenazim definitely have European admixture, because all evidence points that many Jewish males took converted Roman and Hellenic wives upon arrival in the Diaspora after the destruction of Jerusalem and Judea in the first Jewish war and more so after the Bar Kokhba revolt decades later. Also from continuous pogroms in eastern Europe through the centuries adding some European admixture due to rape.
One thing a lot of people don't know about Jews is before the industrial era they were HIGHLY endogamous, meaning they would only marry other Jews or the handful of converts that managed to escape the illegality of converting to Judaism in Christian Europe. Those that did "interfaith" marry were essentially excommunicated and would assimilate into non-Jewish society. The result of this 1,500 years of endogamy is a distinct genetic profile and it is the reason why Ashkenazim have several more prevalent genetic disorders than native Europeans.
But the thing is, it doesn't matter that they have admixture, pretty much everyone except East Asians aren't "pure". If you think Arabs today are without genetic admixture from the populations they conquered, you would be quite wrong.
Jews never ceased being a people; only that since they were exiled from their homeland they adapted and also enacted new religious measure to preserve their Jewish traditions, such as recording the Mishnah which was previously an oral tradition and the antecedent non-legally-binding debates known as the Gemara, together which form the Talmud, which all together are not final Jewish code either (that would be the Shulchan Aruch which was enacted in the 16th century). Prior to this, each Jewish community would follow the ruling of their local authority.
I was in Jerusalem and Masada a while back and saw the remnants of the camps and ramp that the Romans left nearly two thousand years ago. Incredible to imagine that a determined local resistance was able to bring so much grief to a powerful organized empire.
The Jews were the only group to successfully resist against the Roman Empire in its prime.
@@Gameflyer001 NOT TRUE lool at the Germans and the Teuteberg forest, so where some of the Sarmatian tribes on the Black Sea.
@@Gameflyer001 Bullshit, the most of germanic tribes, the parthian empire and celtic tribes of today Scotland were successful and even more effective
@Hoàng Nguyên Its not strange. Alot of Asians from your region tend to worship white people. Its expected.
@@brazilianman92 Have you hear about battle Arausio in the roman cimbrian war, teutoburg forest,the disaster of carrhae, battle of gergovia?, all these battles(and roman defeats) ocurred in the republican and imperial period during the rise of Rome. During the cimbrian war Rome had been near of destruction, and the teutoburg battle halted the roman advance in germania. The jews failed miserably, in the rebellion 66-73CE and in the next Kitos War and Bar-Kokhba revolt, in which they murdered cowardly roman,greeks,macedonians,egyptians,libians civilians, while the romans legions and troops were fighting the parthian empire. More than brave they were fanatic.

Talmud Babli,masechet shabat,page 33B.
It's embarrassing you think those things were introduced to Judea in the 1st century AD. We're not talking about some forest in Germany, but a region with a long history of Babylonian, Persian and Hellenistic civilization.
This is an incredible story told very well by this fantastic channel. Well done!
Thanks!
Guys, thank you so much for making this video. I never understood the geography of the battle until I watched your video, even though I've read Josephus.
We lost not because the romans, but because of the inner wars we fought against each other.
As you all know we are still here brought back after 2000 years, while the roman empire crumbled.
The Roman Empire was gifted to Holy Mother Church by God. The Book of Daniel. Refer to the book: Eternal City by Taylor Marshal.
And you are probably about to be "homeless" again. Constantly kicked out for genocide and other junk you guys do while blaming it on others. If I was kicked out of 100 homes, it was probably me, not them.

Omg I thought that this is Invicta’s last video for his Siege of Jerusalem series. I was wrong haha. But still, thanks K&G. I appreciate and love your videos!
Nvmt t yeah it may take years. Invicta already uploaded a video about the Battle of Winterfell but still no ending for the siege of Jerusalem.
I can hardly see any more but I can sure hear. I enjoyed your commentary very much. Thank-you very much.

You guys continue to impress me with your epic videos. You know Invicta also made a couple of videos pertaining to the Great Jewish Revolt. He too made a series of videos about the Siege of Jerusalem although his ones are divided into four parts. Although his production is pretty good with a lot of effort and detail put in, unfortunately despite it being two years now he still hasn't completed his little documentary yet. I'm still waiting on part four which would showcase the conclusion of the siege. I don't suppose you guys will be making a video for the Siege of Masada as well as a followup to this one?

How to safely and efficiently take an enemy fortress
Step 1:built a wall around it so the enemies can't get and enemy reinforcements and supplies can't get in
Step 2:built a wall around the wall so enemy reinforcements can't attack your troops

Seems to me that the only problem is if your enemy faction has the capability to besiege you inside your outer wall and starve you out.

Appreciate the feedback!
@@KingsandGenerals Ok
In addition to learning about the revolt, I just learned that there was another "Bosporos" - the Cimmerian Bosporus. On a lesser channel, I would have just considered it an error from sloppy map making, but you guys run a tight ship, so I had to research this. As always, keep up the good work.
Thank you!
Just yesterday I was googling about this ... nice timing :D
Thank you guys!
Thanks for watching!
Stellar work, as usual, gentlemen. Did you by any chance make a video on the siege of Masada as well? That’s another “fascinating” (so to speak) - and obviously brutal - one. There is also a very old and little known movie about it.
A 22 min video from K&G in Monday perfect😃
Edit: i know know why the video was till Monday the animation is so good, it must be hard and time consuming, keep up the good work :)
We will, thank you!
Finally. I hoped you would someday make a video about the Jewish revolt and (briefly) the bid for power by Vespasian since I'm a big fan of Robert Fabbri's novel series Vespasian where this event is describes in the last book.
Loved it! It was very informative!
Thanks for all the awesome vids like this one
Thanks for watching!
I'm kinda surprised Jerusalem is still standing after such a fight.
The Jerusalem of today is nothing like it was... Its been razed and built over many times over.
@@jestfuldemigod no shit, but the fact that anything survived is surprising
@@Last555555555 Jerusalem is overhyped, archeologically speaking there are places far older than Jerusalem.
Cities of Mesopotamia/Egypt/Indus valley are older and far more sophisticated.
@@Autechltd fuck u too
The Jewish people are connect many ways. They were removed from their country more then once and they end up back home over and over.
I would like to see the fall of Nineveh 612 B.C.
Will consider!
@@KingsandGenerals Please do! We all love Rome, but no one really talks about things that far back in detail.
@@torva360 I think the main problem is the lack of documentation about that period. One of the things that makes Rome (and Greece) a well covered chapter in history is their passion for writing
@@marcogrigolo2228
Very true.
Luke 21: 5-6 & 20-24
Then, as some spoke of the temple, how it was adorned with beautiful stones and donations, He said, “These things which you see-the days will come in which not one stone shall be left upon another that shall not be thrown down.”
“But when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then know that its desolation is near. Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains, let those who are in the midst of her depart, and let not those who are in the country enter her. For these are the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled. But woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing babies in those days! For there will be great distress in the land and wrath upon this people. And they will fall by the edge of the sword, and be led away captive into all nations. And Jerusalem will be trampled by Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.
Jesus speaking circa AD30
Jesus tried to warn the Jews, but they crucified him for preaching the truth to them.
Written long after the fact. Words put on Jesus lips sounding prophetic.
@Richard Kranium The prediction still came true.
Comic Sans gospels were written after the temple fell, so no it didn’t come true. It was written that he predicted it after the fact. Like most prophecies, they only seem to be fulfilled due to creative writing.
@@richardkranium2944 uh no, the earliest known, still existing manuscripts date back as early as 1st century AD and before they were written and collected into codecies, they were passed on the way everything was passed on in those days and the millenniums before it, orally.
The way they surrounded Jerusalem with a wall is so simple and brilliant. Anyone who has ever visited the city knows how difficult that must have been considering the very hilly terrain especially along the south and east sides
Yeah, that was one of the romans favorite tactics. Julius Caesar loved using that tactic alot, sometimes building another wall behind them to make it harder for the enemy to be reinforced as well as to protect their rear.
Fantastic work! Very impressive! Historical video games should be made that are similar and as dynamic as your video is. Our children need to be educated about history in ways they enjoy! Truly immersive experience. Emotional and beautiful! Your work is groundbreaking and you should be very proud! All of you. I especially love the content in this particular video! -j
Great job, I really love your channel, sadly i do not have enough money to support you on patreon.
Thanks for watching!
Give him $10 at least
Wonderful history lesson. Some of this was mentioned in the book "The Twelve Ceasars" by Roman writer Suetonius.
Excellent Report !
Keep it up my dudes.
We will, thank you!
Great video!! Do the Bar Kochba revolt
Where can I read the play by play of the Bar Kochba revolt?
Can you make Trajan vs Dacians? that would be amazing!
This is an excellent summery of the siege in 70 A.D. I liked it so much I showed it to my Wednesday Bible study class. Well done Sir!
nah, there's a better video
@Katarina Love Concerning the Jews that are in this video, no they were not black. There is ancient documentation verrifing this. Are there black African Jews? Yes, plenty of them live in Ethiopia and the Bible supports that Moses was married to a black Cushite (Ethiopian) woman.
Great video! I watch all your videos, thank you for sharing your talents with us.
Can you make a documentary related about Sicily someday? I love this island and seen to be a huge player in the Mediterranean but today isn't very known, a hug from Brazil :))
Thanks! A few are in the works!
This was a really intense battle interesting strategies by both sides here
grate job describing the battel, but this story has SOOO much more in it, the involvement of the Jewish royal family in Roman politics leading to Vespasian coronation is of massive importance, and the love story of the Jewish Princess Berenice and Titus..
Waiting payed out, thanks.
This is fantastic thank you very much :).
Will you be doing anything on the English civil war or thirty years war in the future?
Thanks! Yep, those are planned!
Another great and informative video! Will you guys make a season 2 for the Mongol empire?
Thanks! Yep!
Based Roman 🗿🗿
Yes based Ancient European people, unlike their children today is bowing down to every word of the Zionist
@@aizac91 The jevvs are losing support, and one day they will be alone

Thanks!
This is a very high quality short documentary
Thanks!
