KGB: Lenin's Order against the Soviet Union | The Sword and the Shield Ep.1
Vložit
- čas přidán 6. 07. 2023
- Lenin established the KGB Secret Service as a temporary measure in the Soviet Union, which ultimately resulted in the deaths of millions of Soviet citizens.
In the Soviet Union, the KGB and other Soviet secret services were actively involved in infiltrating the German High Command, British Intelligence, and America's Manhattan Project, which aimed to develop the first atomic bomb under Lenin's command. This involvement allowed Lenin and the Soviet Union to acquire the necessary knowledge and resources to build their own atomic bomb, marking the beginning of the Cold War and the concept of Mutually Assured Destruction (MAD).
The Soviet Union's influence in the global arena expanded, as the KGB's espionage efforts played a significant role in shaping international affairs during Lenin's era. Despite the immense power and reach of the KGB, the Soviet Union faced its fair share of challenges and controversies, with instances of political repression and human rights violations becoming prevalent under its watch. Nevertheless, the Soviet Union's dominance, propelled in part by the KGB's activities, left an indelible mark on the world stage throughout Lenin's tenure.

@user-vf4oh2iu2h it's an old Soviet joke
"In the old days people got arrested for a joke"... Old days? That's still happens today...
It’s amazing how many terrible aspects of Russian autocracy evolve and re-invent themselves throughout the ages under various power structures. Everything’s changed yet so much remains the same.
A century of it, it's now deep in their DNA. He cannot see it, he's conditioned by fearing mentality since he was created in his mom's womb.
But it is not the same now as then. Today and then are two different worlds.
...in Canada and coming soon to the USA!
Same as in the west if you misgender someone or read the Bible in public. Bozo
I don’t know why I love Soviet docs so much
Me too Shon, it is truly fascinating
Agreed
Me to comrades
Because they did not kill you or your family
it's because you wont be able to tell myth from reality
GREAT. Can't wait for episode 2!
I feel so sorry for that old woman. Her life was destroyed for nothing
Yeah. And she's but one of very many. Nameless, faceless, forgotten or unknown, did they live at all?
She was arrested in 1948, I have a strong suspicion she was a German collaborator, I’m sorry but no one got arrested for jokes. I can tell you that as someone who actually lived in USSR
If you lived in the USSR and are still alive, your experience is unimportant. As a foreigner, you were not privvy to the real layers of soviet life, and even then, you'd only seen the very late Sovok, not what this docu is about. Even soviet citizens of the later years had no clue about the earlier soviet eras and often couldn't understand their elders who were afraid of shadows.
@@pyatigOk so you think they only did things justified?
@@pyatigwe found the communist apologist. Everyone you don’t agree with is a ‘N@zi’
31:05 - The special effects with the open van is simply incredible. Really makes you feel like you are there.
In case you're being sarcastic, it seems to me that the trucks were indeed open; the gas was to render the prisoners unable to resist as they were led out to be shot.
Worse than the secret service were the friends and neighbors who ratted each other out for telling jokes or saying something counter revolutionary. Those were the really terrible people imo.
@sandirtoukaev8920 its not. Let conservatives win a few more elections and this will be daily life in america.
@@sandirtoukaev8920It isn't
@@sandirtoukaev8920By consequences. Idk what nation you are from, but in most places you can’t just get people shot or sent to literal concentration camps by reporting some bullshit.
The worse part it still goes on
Absolutely
Keep going my man,make more videos like this,I love such videos❤❤❤
Great documentary very informative thanks for uploading it
Nah , not quite information was given on the KGB here
@@tristan583lol tankie
The one about Stalins pipe though!😂
Imagine being paranoid of your boss offing you everyday😂
That is brutal, my friends. Just brutal!
The Nazis got the idea for the gas vans from the Soviet NKVD...
I can't wait for episode 2
Poor baba Vera, discussing how one stupid thoughtless comment caused her incredible loss and tragedy. This system was pure evil and malevolence.
Her friend/relative that heard her more
her comment wasnt stupid or thoughtless, the regime was, kakistocracy rules with short breaks of apparent normaility

Awesome videos see you another 5 months from now
The Soviet NKVD/KGB torturers and murderers made the Gestapo look like boy scouts.
most unoriginal opinion
Yeah,and had a good few thou under their belt before the other lot were even thought of by Goring !
With WW 1, the revolution, the civil war. All the purges during Stalin's reign and the casualties of WW 2. It makes a person wonder how Russia has maintained a stable population?
They haven't. Russia is depopulating.
Russia is a weird country and a backwards country. The Russians are VERY good at spying and stealing technology. Spying is one of the few things the Russians are good at
Its an extremly multicultural country too, the european russians are a minority and i think in a near future many minorities there will start to want to break away.
And nkvd deported those minorities to siberia and kazakstan
@@theswede5402That happened decades ago. The Baltics, the southern Caucasus, Ukraine, Central Asia,..crushed attempts in Chechnya, Dagestan, and Ingushetia.
Great video
I'd hate to be arrested in the UK for a meme , twitter post etc
You don't know how lucky you are, boy.
Правдивый документальный фильм сними.
Yeah it's totally the same, the evil west!
That has happened to Australians I'm 2020-2021
Thank the Lord our family were not born in this place... Horrific nightmare that went on a long long time... Prayers for the innocent.
Loved the old Bob Hope line from the 1960's: "The Soviet Union that's where the television watches you!".
Yes but how ignorant to think we were not doing same things In US . His heart was in the right place I guess
And look, its happening globally. Especially in the so called "freest countries." Free until you disagree with the status quo. 😢
Very cool video
"Perhaps my information hurt the Soviet Union more than it helped. I have no idea. It was not something I ever discussed with the KGB officers that I was dealing with." - Aldrich Ames
Ames is so horrible because he did it ONLY for the money so his wife could live above their means. I could maybe even respect Ames if he was a committed communist and was doing it for what he thought were patriotic reasons like the Soviet spies that gave the infor to the West. That he didn't even AGREE with the Soviet ideals made it somehow worse in my opinion. Robert Hansen and his son were the same way. Just money! I'm glad the 2 men are rotting in jail!
Another horrible man!
I don't know why, but I liked the evolution of evil series in this channel a lot and watched it multiple times.
Ich bin einem alte kalte krieger ,ich mag sie auch.

In what year was this documentary series produced?
20:28 but honestly, some people talk way to much and it can do a lot of damage. Freedom of speech, but speech is not free.
They skipped over Genrikh Yagoda.
To know the future all one has to do is look to the past as the saying so goes, the great things leaders achieve is always overshadowed by the evil mistakes made by them . Even in these so called modern times we can see parallels,lessons are learned or are they ? For whom the bell tolls it tolls for thee.
I believe in the 50 year cycle. Look at 2020 in the United States. It was much like 1970 and 1920 with the same issues and same players.
Couldn’t agree more…
Stalin love of blaming others for his own mistakes is actually a widespread human trait. But when you do it as the top dog the consequences for those below are clearly worse.
Facts.
its disgusting to think that this is exactly literally what we are still fighting today and in our generation
Can't wrap my mind how Russians justify these massmurderers and admire them
If it wasn't for the Russians, you'd be speaking German now suuka.
Same question.
Guess I was kinda hoping for more from the KGB side of the story as well.
Just a small dose of their story to give the impression of unbiased reporting.
Now this i what i like to watch
One thing is for sure. Scientific progress was triggered by the competition between two great powers of the World. Arms Race, Space Race, Intellectual prowess aftermath the second world war. Humans can do the best and the worst. In the hindsight its very difficult to judge the winners and losers.
This is a fine documentary, but you should really read the book by Christopher Andrew and Vasili Mitrokhin for a more in-depth look at the Soviet/Russian security apparatus.
What's the title
@@freespiritable Its actually called the Sword and the Shield
The only "good" thing about the terror was, that so many who helped
create that monster, eventually got eaten by it themselves.
Much like the French Revolution.
The East German Ministry for State Security (Stasi). Now that group were down right brutal. It baffles me that a lot of our current universities support this ideology.
Brainwashing ordered by Vladimir Vladimirovitš Putin
I read the gulag archipelago. And it was hell on earth😂
Ah, - A kiddie who should know which way is up then. Was revelation for all outside The Foriegn Office in the early seventies !
Is that Malcolm McDowell as the humble narrator?
Dang that title card diminished chord was lit🔥
Yes 🎉
42:21 NKVD evacuation order No. 00803
this documentary style is sad. someone went and interviewed all these people for hours and you get like 1 sentence from each discussion into a incoherent quilt. Oh how I wish I could see the full interviews. when its chopped up like this you can put your words in their mouth. :/
38:29 they strip-searched (thorough cavity search) him, yet the notes remained in the pocket......
Lowly lawyers…
Lowly businessman…
Lowly salesman…
Lowly actor…
Lowly liar…
Some lawyers are alright, i liked your comment though.
For those who truly are interested in Soviet history. The best author who explains it is Victor Suvorov
I have read "Spetsnaz, Inside the Soviet Special Forces" and "Inside the Soviet Military". They are good books and very informative.

Years ago I read a very good book on the Cheka.
Oh please: where are parts 2 and 3?
If you want to make an omelet, you first have to break some eggs.
And by "eggs" you mean 100.000 People, right ?
the only problem is: YOU are the egg, not the omlet.
That sucks! Took everything from the Polish men! I’m still pissed about this! Since I’m part Polish when the Soviet Union was in charge! Poor people! Stalin was psychic! He needed medical help!
Checka, was the ВЧК, The "Veh Cheh Kah" or more simply, the "Cheh Kah." properly pronounced chay-KAH, not CHECKuh.
The KGB was not formed till the 50s.First it was Cheka, than NKVD under Stalin than KGB when Stalin died in 1953
GPU then NKVD - KGB,Cheka before GPU !
Cheka,gpu,ogpu, nkvd, nkgb,nkvd again, mgb then kgb
Imprisoned for a Joke 😱
Sent to a gulag. There’s an excellent documentary about the gulags, almost three hours of actual footage and photographs. Horrific.
When chief of the gestapo Heinrich Muller made his admiration of the NKVD well known, it seeks volumes of the NKVDs ruthlessness. Today the FSB runs Russia. All the end of the cold war meant, was the Russians changed the way they do business.
No because before the revolution, the Okhrana ran parts of the Russian Imperial State. No mater the revolution, the Police body in police states keep reigns of power---perhaps with a name change or two---to themselves. Generation to generation.
Muller admired the nkvd, that's heavy
Naz! b0t spotted
On the contrary,they did not change it,they gave us all a chance to be their victims !
Muller was not the main man,Goring was. He built the Ordnungspolitzie from the civvy police.@@user-vf4oh2iu2h
So you think the USSR was the only major country that did things like this and still do today why do we judge a country without knowing something bout there history that may be a lot older than you think
Don't recall the power in The UK bumping people off people in their hundreds in the last couple of hundred years.
I am seventy too,read a lot of History Books,and had family who served in two World Wars and The Boer War.
@@philiprufus4427 Very impressive but I am speaking of America where I live don't believe in anything a government tells me but I know that both your country and mine though imperialism have done ethnic cleansing destroyed cultures and killed stoled others natural resources look at what both are supporting in Israel I am a history and political scientist my father and uncle's have in wars and I am 70 years old also
This was worse than the Czar could ever do.
Sounds like your average Primary School in the UK with the classroom assistant special agents reporting back to the Headteacher on the teachers who go slightly off government dictated curriculum..

28:10 The 'Great Terror' didn't happen 1936 but 1937-8.
Great videos but for heavens sake stop censoring them. To censor this is to ignore it and that is the worst thing you can do.
Should have watched it on - wait for it -Aunty Beeb 1971 ! No cencorship then,the real Beeb,World War 11 generation in charge. Seen lots of dead bodies. Most onlookers were barely twenty then too.
We are monitoring all comments.

What is unbelievable is that I know educated Russians that miss those “great days”
Может ты у них лично спросишь "Why?". Или гораздо лучше верить фильмам, что будто склеены во времена Маккартизма?
Вот тебя бы я лично точно репрессировал, хотя бы потому что ты отказался думать.
You surely mean indoctrinated Russians?
They obviously did not spend any time in The Gulag !
Solzenitsyn was even arrested whilst commanding a Battery of Guns during the battle of Kursk for criticising Uncle Joe,in his personal diary. Must get the priorities right. - Meglomaniac Joe. Compared to that,Der Fuhrer was a Pussycat.
Can't say about the young educated Russian youths, I am sure old Soviets dudes definitely miss those golden old days(according to them). I had never seen any video or footage of the old Soviet dudes talking on topics like this.
We will experience the same, End Times. People will flee Europe stated mystic Marie-Julie Jahenny
did? they still do
This is pure evil. What a place to burn and grow.
How short you must be to look that small compared to Stalin in the thumbnail.
Considering Syalin was 5'4...
Very short xD
weird how calming a Russian documentary is 😂
many youngsters know about the Nazis, but not the soviets under Stalin. it's crazy!
Нет, всё прекрасно знают. Благодаря вот таким фильмам, например. У людей тупо реакция даже на слово "коммунизм" соответствующая. Ты смотри аккуратнее только, мужик. eViL KeGeBe не спит и бдит за каждый поборником демократии, чтобы ущемить свободу лично каждого из вас.

Dzerzhinsky was a Polish Catholic? Are you kidding? What historical source was used to obtain this background information? Wikipedia? LOL! Come on, man.
in the beginning of the movie , it's the same cellar I was jailed into not long ago in St Petersburg
Lowly lieutenant colonel….
Solzenitzin explains all
Sooo many commercials on this one
Lt. Colonels are definitely NOT lowly! (Certainly they're higher than the writer or narrator. But Putin himself has always been a low soul.)
And a tiny little man.
Did you know he wears 👠👠 to gain a few centimeters of height? 😂
What are you saying about Putin ?
The funny is at 40:54
Sad what They been tro
this documentary achieved what Joseph Goebbels cannot do
State terrorists they must be called, not security services
That whole place can be described in one word paranoia...
NO - The Abattoir !
1:07 damm, she is horribly right.
Cause you missed it!
I think this is a documentary, copied from its original creators.
There is another channel " free documentary " that has this exact same video
😂😂😂😂😂 These British doc. movies bout Russia are funny as hell.

The whole Soviet system was one big crime against humanity.

And now they are back in the same autharian system. Why do they never learn?
Their is a viscous cycle, in every authoritarian rule good people always leave their country at first and they never see back towards their country.

Q: When did Lenin become a good Communist?
A: When he died.
good photos and interviews, but poorly done history. No mention of Dzerzinsky's terrible conditions and treatment in Czarist prison? Nothing on assassination attempt on Lenin? When we see him in state he still had a bullet lodged in his neck, in operable. Quite biased. Not fair to the agents of later time that gave so freely of their time and related their experiences.
Et maitenant c'est FBS!!!
You mean FSB.
If only information like this were in Spanish it could probably cause a movement big enough to start something similar in México. We need a KGB system in Mexico. Thats how we'd find the families and the members of cartels. We'd cleanse Mexico from Cartels members one by one
No se si algo tan brutal como la KGB es estrictanente necesario. Solo es mi opinión, no tienes que estar de acuerdo.
De hecho, mientras escribía esto me dí cuenta de que los cartels son infinitamente peores...
A ver si encuentro una versión de este documental en español...
@@xanmontes8715Estoy de acuerdo contigo en lo de los carteles. Pero los carteles lo hacen para beneficio de ellos. Una limpia del tipo Stalin, seria como en la URSS, que beneficio al pueblo entero y uso a los criminales para trabajar y construír infraestructura que beneficiaria al pueblo. Y solo lo pudo conseguir por medio de la KGB. Nadie era capaz de rebelarse cuando la KGB estaba en control total y asta hoy los Rusos destruyen a los criminales en lugar de tenerles piedad
@@xanmontes8715what else is there then!?
@@ajaysidhu471 nothing actually. The cartels are so much worse and I did find a version of thia documentary in Spanish.
Tell us about CIA.P
All the ‘pro Russia’ people living in the US need to go live there. You won’t be able to leave, of course, but since you think all things Russian are “cool” you should go live there. First, watch the almost three hour documentary about the gulags.
