Thank you RLL for these videos. I'm saddened that you aren't allowed to cover these topics in depth the way that you would like due to the ToS of YT, but I still hope someday that the extended information that you covered will be shown to the public. People need to know what's really going on.
@@markqqq_ yes
This reminds me of the time when a US congressman asked a general why they can't just take full control of Syria's air space, and the general had to embarrassingly explain that simply taking over Syrian air space like that requires them to go to war with Syria and Russia.
It's also a reason why Hillary Clinton lost. Part of her platform was to create a no-fly zone over Syria. Trump responded with something to the effect of, "You have to enforce it. That leads to war, and the people here don't want war."
The Russians moved on Ukraine because Ukraine has no military alliance and will never be admitted into the EU or NATO as long as it's an active conflict zone. There is very little to gain here for the Europeans while the Americans run their mouths on the other side of the ocean. Enforcing a no fly zone is guaranteed to unleash WO3 which will result in nuclear war. This is a no win situation for everyone involved.
fyi US is still in Syria- LMAO.. Russia cant do shit... and Europe just sits on the side line like a goodboy and waits for the US to tell it what to do--
Name of that congressman, General? I need that Video
Good thing the US has generals like that to make those big decisions and not the idiotic congressmen.
Here's the thing, some of those polls also asked the question in ways that explained the implications. When people were asked if they supported the no-fly-zone even if that meant directly going to war with Russia the numbers drop off dramatically. Same question asked by/of the same people at the same time received drastically different results when asked with different wordings.
That's true, but it only reinforces the point - people are unaware of the implications and need to be told how the world works.
Totally agree most people don’t look at the aftermath. They hear something sounds good and get behind it without research. If majority of the people know that a no fly zone would cause ww3 they would not get behind it.
Yes, it is completely true, the fact is that many people do not know what the terminology "no fly zone" really means, and a large number actually think that the point is to pass a law that the other side will automatically have to respect. But that is far from the truth. I personally think that this would inevitably lead from local war, in Europe, to WWIII overnight.
@Russian Waifu Russia should give up and become a civilised nation.
exactly
I was in London a few weeks back. In the Soho area, I came across a group of youthful girls (between their teens and 20s) chanting & preaching for the No-Fly-Zone. There were about forty of them. I asked all of them what exactly was the meaning of a No-Fly-Zone over Ukraine. Now, at this point, I had been deliberately ignoring & cutting off all the news. So I was pretty uneducated on the matter, and was genuinely curious to learn more about this war. But the girls reactions, who were preaching for this, were…
They looked away, muttered in confusion, and didn’t give me one single answer.
Just imagine if they were the majority who managed to elect our politicians.
At least I wasn’t advocating for something of which I had zero knowledge.
welcome back to watching & reading news
It’s funny because none of them would be on the battlefields if a war were to happen.
Zoomers and Internet trends.
Well it is democracy 😂
This looks incredible! Thank you for taking us along with you!
A lot of ppl are ignorant of what a no fly zone actually is and I’m glad this is informative.
Pretty sure if someone is supporting a no fly zone over Ukraine, they know the stakes. Even today, as horrible images of the Russian massacre in Bucha comes out and reports of chemical weapons being used and children refugees being kidnapped and raped by Russian soldiers, I think it’s time we step in and end this. No matter the costs. We can’t leave Ukraine out like this. We are complicit in our inaction and cowardice for what’s happening too. What does it mean when the powerful America just stays by and does nothing in the face of evil? Our founding fathers and American ancestors are rolling in their graves. They would never accept what’s happening now, seeing a European dictator murderous regime steamroll a fledgling Europeans democracy.
"poll after poll across countries western Europe has consistently shown very low support in the general western European public for a no-fly zone over Ukraine. However, the same can not be said of the American public"
Thankfully it would appear the Americans did become more and more informed over time, and luckily we have a far more rational US government in power presently.
The answer is simple. US & NATO fears with Russia. They can just do it in middle east but not Russia.
@@Brevard1986 😬😬😬 "people more informed"?? and "we have a rational governement" are you out of your mind? our news here in America is 100% propaganda! we are supporting Azov neo-Nazis in Ukraine and almost no one here is aware of it! This news is just lies here! Washington d.c. has send billions of dollars of weapons to these Neo-nazis to prolong this war as much as possible so we can weaken Russia. Washington doesn't care about Ukraine, only weakening Russia. We destroyed Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Libyia, and so many other countries in the past 20 years and killed over 11 million civilians in these countires and the news is all on "Russian genocide". Washington d.c. is not represented by the people and I would not doubt a civil war coming here soon. I am tired of my taxes dollars being spent like this.
@@Brevard1986 I do wonder whether Trump has spoken his own views regarding the No-fly zone.
I just love how u show how things can happen on a map it just helps me understand how far countries can go, this is why I love ur videos and u show us clips of the wars so thank u for tht.
Thank you for sharing Tab for a Cause! I just installed it. I'm a big fan of your channel. You should think about doing some merch. I'm not the only one who would buy a shirt or pin with your logo to support you.
It was not enforced in Syria out of fear of confrontation. Enforcing it in Ukraine would mean a direct fight between Russia and the other countries enforcing it without doubt.
We should do it. What's Russia going to do about it?
@@levyroth World War 3
@@levyroth Respond with nukes
@@levyroth have a guess
Russia is also a nuclear armed country, while Syria is not.
Threat assessment has to be considered here.
Most Americans sadly think a NO FLY ZONE means we can just pick up the phone and tell Putin to stop. The lack of basic historical & political education in my country always bothers me.
Well there's lots of sheeple in the United States now. It's becoming bigger and bigger problem now because they're letting people take away their rights
That's why they vote for Republicans. Because they're ignorant.
The answer is simple. US & NATO fears with Russia. They can just do it in middle east but not Russia.
Yeah, Americans don’t really understand geopolitics unless they specifically study it directly or through history, because they are surrounded by fish and don’t have the need to understand maps outside of the US sadly. When a country like Armenia, Yemen or Ukraine makes a mistake on the world stage the repercussions are huge and immediate when the US makes a mistake they can make like ten more and not get immediately punished on their home soil, you know barring nuclear war.
@Ahhh yes EXACTLY! People are too emotional to think clearly. No wonder that democracy is the worst form of government to rule by
I just noticed this channel today and I've binged watched it all day. Fantastic stuff
Even though we're so far away, we're still only one country away from Ukraine....

Wise words, thank you Mr Un
@@toocrowdedatthebottom1209 Mr Kim. East Asian names have the surname first and the forename second.
Thank you mr. Simon, I didn’t know that!
really not sure what people arguing for the no fly zone are thinking. Putin would not want to look like a pushover after acting as the aggressor, so there's no doubt he would ignore it, in which case you have two options, either A, NATO fight to defend it and make the war worse, or B it doesn't get enforced, in which case it's back to square one but everyone is slightly more pissed than before.
I like how you have a typo saying worst instead of worse. Because: yeah it wouldn’t just be worse but the worst war ever seen probably
When Putin invaded Georgia he pulled out when Bush ordered Navy and Army assets close to the region. In Syria Putin did many terrible things and finally Trump hit a Syrian airbase with a cruise missile strike and then had special forces help the Kurds kill over 600 russian mercenaries - and then Putin stopped committing war crimes in Syria. Any time someone stands up to Putin he like any other bully backs off.
As a Ukrainian, I always felt like asking for no fly zone was part of negotiation strategy of "asking for impossible and getting the maximum" out of sympathetic countries.
Those who support no fly zone are thinking that WWIII is at this point inevitable (or that it has already started). Russia generally prepares their public in advance for things like that. Last year Putin published his essay stating that Ukraine is not a country and Ukrainians are no distinct people. Before Crimea takeover there were public discussions about, well, taking Crimea. Currently Russian propaganda states that all Ukrainians are Nazis and must be punished (intention for genocide which is supported by monstrous Russian actions in occupied Ukrainian territories) and, more interestingly, that the "real Nazis" are the West, that Russia is building "new world order" and their goal is an "open Europe from Vladivostok to Lisbon." Combine that to their initial demands of NATO returning to its 1997 borders - basically, abandoning Central and Eastern Europe to Russia - and the final picture seems grim indeed. Ukraine is not the goal of Putin. It seems it is just the first step.
If NATO - Russian conflict is inevitable (which may as well be if one of the sides, Russia, is willing to gamble on it), doing everything to stop Russia in Ukraine is logical, even at the incredibly high cost. I'm not saying that WWIII is inevitable. I'm just saying there might be logic behind advocating for no fly zone even knowing the risks.
If it escalates as a result, that would be Putins fault for ignoring the no fly zone.
Once poll-takers get the explanation of what a no-fly zone is and what it would lead to, they swith their answer to "no".
Im not so sure. I get the reason we can't have one over all of Ukraine but it feels like we should be able to establish it in some area of Ukraine without having to attack Russian air defenses.
@@hadeees Did you just miss the video? You can't establish a no-fly zone without enforcing it, and that means nuclear war, does not matter if it is whole Ukraine, or part of it. How dumb are u
@@hadeees Why would we do that? Militarily entering Ukraine in anyway just opens up the potential for an incident that leads to war with Russia. Keep supplying Ukraine with weapons and strategic advice, but this is their fight not ours. If we (NATO) wanted it to be our fight, we would have admitted them into the defensive alliance.
@@hadeees Like the wars in the Middle East and North Africa , only we, Europe, will feel the crisis. Nope, don't start that, giving Ukraine javelins is enough.
Yeah, I remember a couple of years ago there was a poll where Americans were asked if they would support a US military campaign against Agrabah and a majority was in favor of that campaign - the thing is: Agrabah is the fictional state from Aladdin.
The US really shouldn't base their foreign policy on public opinion because a large part of the public are idiots.
I love the way u tell about what's happening around the world 🌎 cuz u show us the MAP and u show us Clips 🇺🇸 of what ur talking about thts why to me ur channel will always be number 1 to me.
Always informative, thank you.
In short: the no-fly zone wont happen because that means ww3
I'm thinking Russia is trying to goad the Americans into it ! that's why they started killing civilians
Yup
Zelensky: Give me WW3!
thank you Hero for the TL;DR
Yeah that's why my dad and I said if we established a no fly zone that means WW3. So we are against doing that.
Long answer: This video
Short answer: Nobody wants a world war 3
Except Russia
@@SpiritofNature Russian would get the worse out of it, why would they want ww3?
@@maximilianodelrio everyone willl lose
Except Zelenskyy it seems ( I understand why he wants no fly zone, I'm not Russian bot)
@@SpiritofNature Why'd they want a war just to weaken themselves? If they wanted a world war, They wouldn't care if NATO kept expanding, and they would've likely taken the baltic states already. Wanting to secure your position by invading another country is far different from wanting to start a larger war.
Congrats on the result. Really impressive how you manage to get awareness and funds to those who need it most and at the same time inform the people standing by. Well done 10/10 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Best content on TH-cam by far keep up the good work mate
Naive people think that by simply declaring "no fly zone" then it automatically means Russia will obey it. They don't know that it means actively patrolling the skies. It's like putting a speed limit on roads, which is pointless if there are no police to enforce the rules.
Yes, people know that. But alot of people understand that by not confronting Russia, that means Russia is incharge, and we are at the mercy of them. The biggest tragedy in this war is that the west lets Russia think they can controll the escelation. Russia belive they can do what they want. Problem with that is that is not true. There are things Russia can do in Ukraine the enforces NATO to act, and if Russia feels assured NATO will not intervein, they might create that escalation unwillingly in the naive belife NATO is commited to stay away. A Russia that do not fear NATO escalation is alot bigger risk factor for an actual escalation, then a Russia that realize there are limits to how much suffering they can create with this war. And they should constantly feel that they are working against the clock and that every day they continue these attrocities, they are one day closer to bringing NATO in to it.
The answer is simple. US & NATO fears with Russia. They can just do it in middle east but not Russia.
Not naive, dumb people, people who make decisions without knowing anything about a topic.

@@Straystar1235 How do you annex land not next to your own? and Ukraines Azov are a bundle of n.a.z.oi groups, even the BBC will tell you that.
I said this from day one and was called a Russian supporter by my liberal friends and my Facebook posted was censored. All for saying we shouldn’t risk nuclear war to support a country which 4 years ago we said was the most corrupt in Europe and was killing its own people in a civil war.
This just shows how good the world has had it with with Pax Americana, the period where the US has been the most powerful nation in the world. Imagine if China or Russia had been the most powerful nation in the world. Things would be a lot worse
Thank you for providing the much needed context! I'm happy I found your channel a few weeks back. All the information was clear and concise. Thank you also for the charity efforts!
This channel is one of the most objective American channels on the entirety of this platform, much support ❤️
Zelensky knows he's never going to get a no-fly zone. He calls for it as a negotiation tactic, so he can get more aid in other things. It's quite smart really.
I disagree, I think he genuinely thinks he can trick some western countries into doing a no-fly zone. Zelensky is a smart man and knows what a no-fly zone would entail, but doesn't seem to care that Moscow and NY city could end up getting nuked in the process. I like everything Zelensky has said and done, but his request for a no-fly zone makes him look bad. He would be more productive if he spent more time asking NATO to send him Jets, so that Ukraine could defend their own sky. No-fly zone means nuclear war.
Not really smart. Zelensky know they are losing and still sending soldiers to their death and putting civilians at risk, restricting men from leaving the country, forcing untrained people to fight so they are killed for publicity advantages and the such. He's as shitty a leader as he is an actor and this whole thing by him is just a role like in that tv show where he played a president. Not to mention he's a puppet for a billionaire financer with personal agendas and his regime is evil that actually does commit atrocities to ethnic Russians.it's not all just "Russian propraganda"...
Zelensky is a western puppet imo. If he had any power or smarts, this war would have been negotiated out of existence.
USA needs his rhetoric to justify proxy war for public here at home. But it's Ukraine, his country, that would be bleeding. :(
Idk zelensky giving me weird vibes

@@USSAnimeNCC- in my opinion surrendering then fighting guerrilla will cause less damage to infrastructure, civilians and will be easier cus guerilla is most effective and Russia would not be able to hold out... I know its much complex than just this but no problem in guessing

I am reffuring to bucha and kramatorsk which if you actualy look into all the clues they dont point towards russia
@@homingmissile5459 but that would give Russia full control over the Ukrainian government. It would eliminate the democratically elected government and replace it with a Russia-friendly government. The Ukrainian army also could not protect the civilians anymore so Russia would probably execute lots of civilians after every guerrilla attack.
Thank you for making this video. 💕💖
Very Good video Superb animation and well explained !
Why on Earth are we polling the public for a No Fly Zone?!?! That is absolutely the kind of drastic decision I do not want to be decided by the general public but for military experts who know what that would mean. Taking that to a public poll is utter insanity.
Look at Brexit!
The experts said the housing market was fine.. just before it crashed.
Polls are done on everything, and have nothing to do with policy lol. Thermonuclear war is typically not decided via polls 😂
It was just a social experiment. The US would never enforce a no-fly zone just because the public wanted it.
And here lies the problem with democracy.
This is the best, literally the best, evidence as to why populism or “poll-based policy making” is such a terrible idea.
Democracy is a stupid idea in general when the majority are morons. Works fine at the county and state levels when that's not usually the case, not so much for national or international levels when it often is.
Exactly ! I am sorry, but the average Joe or Jane is most likely either ignorant or cannot grasp the nuances of various problems. Be happy our elected governments have qualified people to deal with these issues for us. “The best argument against Democracy is a five-minute conversation with the average voter.” - Winston Churchill, Former PM of the UK
That's why democracies around the world are representative and not direct.
@@Astuar Even then, representatives are far too often painfully ignorant for the role they are expected to perform. The best kind of elected representative know what they know and what they don't and seeks the guidance of subject matter experts.
still prefer a mixture of both, where the politicians are tasked to inform the public what the said policies/proposals mean, with more of these direct democracy stuff used on domestic issues, rather than international issues

The polls in the US just show how the world of many US Americans ends at their borders. Europeans who had war time and time again for centuries are a lot more aware of the relationships to other countries and how devastating a declaration of war could be to Europe.

Very informative video , many people nowadays just could not imagine the massive implications of actually going to war, it's saddening buts it's an necessary measure to protect the lives of many many more
Apparently I'm in the 26 percent of my country that still has the sense to know that a no-fly zone is a bad idea. The fact the percentage for Yes was that high further analyzes the big (and scary) problem regarding education in this country. The average American probably thinks "no-fly zone means no planes, this is great" but this very mindset shows they don't know their own history. And then when Biden makes the right call to not order a no-fly zone, then they're like "Biden isn't brave enough, he's a chicken" and blame Biden for this whole thing when it's not his fault.
When a no-fly zone is ordered, and an American jet attacks a Russian one, Russia will now have the excuse to use their arsenal, or even plot an Alaska invasion to reclaim it. Whose fault would it be now? The ones who pressured him, the ones who didn't do their research. Plus people still blame him for Kabul's fall...even though the Doha Agreement with the Taliban happened under the TRUMP administration
That failure of the Afghanistan pullout was 100 % joe bidens fault. He was the president he was in charge. Don't blame mr.. Trump.
regardless of political stance it just shows how uneducated and how out of touch most Americans are.
Trump is still better than Biden tho😂 if he and Netanyahu was president then it wouldn’t be a war in Ukraine
It’s ironic how you call America uneducated as a immigrant from a place like Cuba which has barely anybody educated and a poverty rate of 26% and yet bring up that Russia could possibly “reclaim Alaska”. Why would Russia attack Alaska of all places, a area with no significant strategic targets and barely any people, if they were at war with the US? Alaska doesn’t have any year round warm water ports too, making a navy ineffective. Go back to cuba and be with your people
Now you liberals are blaming Trump for the miserable bloody pullout of Afghanistan.
Demented old Joe biden messed it up, he was president and he is to blame. For the 16 marines getting killed and the hundreds of stranded refugees.
Typical liberals blaming someone else for the mess this country is in .
Under Trump we had peace and prosperity.
This senile old man took office and within a year we have 2 wars going on
Inflation skyrocketing, crime rate going thru the roof.
The buck stops at the desk of that old man in the white house.
Look no farther than the Cold War to see the lengths the US and USSR went to avoid a direct confrontation with another nuclear power. Proxy wars have been fought for a long time(Vietnam, Korea, Soviet-Afghan, ect. now Ukraine) but that is still very different than a direct conflict. It is in everyone's, including Ukraine's, best interest to not escalate this into a direct conflict with multiple nuclear powers.
Tell that to the Moron Zelenskij who is encouraging this or other steps directly leading to WW3.
Don't make me laugh.
Putin just showed to the whole world that he (and China by extent) can do whatever they want and US will do sh*t.
Wonder how effective sanctions against cruise missiles? Ask any resident of Ukraine.

RealLifeLore quickly became my favourite TH-cam channel. Amazing work you guys are doing!
Thank you for serving the overall Good by informing people ignorant of the topic.
This video could literally be part of how we avoid WWIII
Thanks for the information on the charity
RealLifeLore was right, most of the people who call for "No Fly Zone" certainly don't understand the negative consequence of it. The War continues like how it's going, it's only a regional conflict that keeps the battlefield in Ukraine, the battlefield would certainly expand to the whole Europe or even larger region if "No Fly Zone" is imposed.
Imagine what would happen if NATO planes start to shoot Russian Planes or destroy to fire on the ground target inside Russia?! People who protest for "No-Fly Zone" need to appreciate that they can still hold their signs and slogans on a peaceful square because " No Fly Zone" hasn't imposed.
guess better let putin take over europe slowly then. A new country every 4 years. Wouldnt wanna put him in his place before he has had a chance to kill millions.
agreed, cuz if US or any other countries enter war with NATO, instead of holding signs they'll be in the military fighting
Everyone wants to look like a brave freedom fighter until cities start getting hiroshima’d on both sides.
I think there is a general delusion (probably on both sides) that a nuke can be shot out of the sky or something but that’s not the case at all.
They go straight up, way above interception reach and then go straight down. No chance to outmanoeuvre an intercontinental nuke. Once it’s launched the targets are already dead.
scary how so many people don't understand what a no-fly zone is considering its self explanatory to anyone who knew where Ukraine was before March
thank you
It would be interesting to see a video similar to that of your 'what if every stan country became one country' but with every country ending with 'ia' such as Croatia, Algeria, Tunisia, Syria, Latvia etc like the 'ia' empire and how it would function.
It would be led by Russia.
Love the vids ❤️
Thank you for your work! One of the best educational channels on TH-cam
whoever makes these videos is awesome.
Another consideration is that so far no fly zones worked when they were protecting citizens against *their own* government that tried to massacre them. Meaning somewhat equalizing the power between civilians vs. the military and not to help one military vs. another.
If you are talking about Libya? If you are then I'm not sure why you would post something you aren't educated about. That "no fly zone. Libya had hardly any planes and they were destroyed very fast resulting in complete air superiority. But it became clear this was a full on regime change operation. We supplied weapons and bombed cities to nothing. And now Libya is in a horrible state. It's ran by warlords and they have a huge slave trade now.
Thank you for explaining this clearly. I'm super sus about those polls in the States but I think because we've been fighting countries that can't fight back for so long it's given those who think we are invincible a big head and think we can just pick fights wherever we want and whenever we want. And to top it off, it's disrespectful to our armed forces to treat their lives as if were some plaything.
it’s more just a general lack of understanding of what these things entail. most people associate a no fly zone with civilian planes hence the polling.
Super easy to murder cave dwelling opponents.
Funny how the ideals of freedom melt in the face of an actual dicatator.
@@assaqwwq super easy ay? is that why they held out their influence in the mountains while operating out of caves? delusional.
God damn, I appreciate that sentiment. I don’t want to overshare, but I just got off the USS Truman, an Aircraft Carrier which is still operating in the Mediterranean as we had been since December. All I can really say is, I’m glad we didn’t initiate a no fly zone.
Yup, a poll showed that yeah, around 60% of people in the U.S. want a no fly zone. But when asked if they would want boots on the ground, which is what a no fly zone would inevitably lead to, it's almost flipped and around 60% of people don't want the U.S. to get involved. This was one poll by the way but I think it's very telling.
That poll is pretty flawed though and asked a very charged question with many false premises. The majority of the American public would support a limited intervention. One of the largest and main reasons Biden’s approval rating is in the gutter is because he cowardly retreated from Afghanistan and second, he’s letting Putin blow up Ukrainian civilians and gas them with banned chemical weapons. The American people want more to be done it shows, if they’re supporting a no fly zone in a supermajority. America is so divided right now, and no domestic issue gets more than 50% support. But helping Ukraine and defeating Putin’s war machine is something we could unite from the left to the right wing because the broader public agrees that more should be done.
Out of 400m people in USA how many voted in the poll? £2k? 20k?. That's not the whole American population ?
Probably no boots on the ground. Just them launching on us, us launching on them, and USA, UK, France, China and Russia destroyed.
@@yaqob3275 Yes Musa, that is how statistics work.
The answer is simple. US & NATO fears with Russia. They can just do it in middle east but not Russia.
I thought based on this explanation start that I don't know what a "no fly zone" is, than I listened and understood I understand basic English, basic logic and know history.
That browser extension is a pretty smart idea
I'm surprised this needs to be explained.
I understand why a no fly zone will be WW3. And sure hell don't want that to happen.
Corporate media and my Twitter tl are full of people begging for one.
some people are too emotional about it ( im not saying you shouldnt be, there are inocent people that die, but lets continue to use our brains and take the route that would kill less, even tho it might be cruel for ukrainians to be left alone)
It’s probably because the US has been very happy to declare a no fly zone over poor countries that they where they are busy “spreading freedom,” and saw no consequences. Americans back home have only seen a sanitised version of the war on the news, so they don’t see the real savagery and death that comes with war.
Im Twitter there are so many morons that want a no-fly zone so yeah it still has to be explained sadly
It's frightening how many people who call for one have NO IDEA what it actually entails.
Its the media's fault for all of that.
@@KyleandPrieteni yeah, no doubt there. It really feels like they're trying to get ww3 started. That's the kind of irresponsibility from media that makes one wonder if there's actually a secret conspiratorial group pushing it. But honestly it's probably just greed and incompetence.
@@KyleandPrieteni It's the media's fault for a lot of things.
Yes.
There should be one.
Fuck Putin.
Imagine Kennedy backing down out of fear of confrontation.
But your logic means we don't do anything. While Putin advances and escalates it anyway. He isn't stopping. We aren't stepping to to conflict too early - we are already late.
@13:07: That's actually a *Vietnamese MiG fighter* , as you can obviously see from the design; *Russian MiG fighters* are both *designed and painted differently.*
Thanks for an informative video. You managed to convince me to change my opinion on the subject.
Sadly, this is one of the problems with democracy. Many ordinary people often start protesting on the streets and pressuring the government to do things that in reality are not feasible or the best for the country in the long-run. Not saying that autocratic leadership is any better; it is way worse.
Do you mean the no-fly zone?
@@kekerosberg1654 He is trying to say that people in free democracies think that when the govt. does not take an action that the public knows fuck nothing about, they think they are getting oppressed.
Just see the protest in USA. regarding no fly zone.
@@kekerosberg1654 Yes, the whole no-fly zone thing is an example of this
Ignorance is the problem of human individual.
A democratic form of government sucks, its just the best we've got in relation to the alternatives.
Love your smooth transitions, as always, but now even more because of this noble cause
Wow! Amazing job with that fundraiser guys! 😁
Keep up the good work!
RealLifeLore makes documentaries on random topics so interesting. Appreciate the hard work. 👍

Thank you for supporting Save the Children
On the contrary, I'm well aware of what such a measure could entail, and I'd still be behind it.
These videos are very informative! I know that you are unlikely to hear this, but my deepest thanks are with you for your work to provide entertaining and important information. Keep up the work, and our prayers are with Ukraine!
I work at a crisis shelter for ukrainian refugees in the netherlands, even though quite far from ukraine. The stories and images these poor people sketch are horrible. Teenage kids who travel alone, because dad is fighting and mom is dead, most of their other family is dead or missing too. This is not even a rarity.
My deepest respect for ukraine and their people, may this needless suffering end asap!
Edit: since everybody is aggressively wondering why not “insert nationality”?
I work in crisis management and the crisis here is more the sudden amount of people coming here, rather then the tragic stories that come with them. Thats just something that you take home.
I assume every other conflict in any part of the world is just as horrible as this. Which makes this whole story even sadder.
Please be civilized when commenting, this is not a pissing competition of who has it worse.
why ukraine and not palestine? iraq? iran? afghanistan? all the african civi wars
@@Hakimgrr_ all human suffering deserves to end, wherever it is taking place. No one is saying 'only Ukraine'
Why do the optics of Ukrainian men staying behind to fight look leagues ahead of the Syrian men that came to Europe during that crisis. Is it the media or is it true?
We shud also think of the people killed by nato and USA in Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, Somalia, Libya and Yemen... Still ongoing.
Condemn them too and support them with ur time and money. Seems like only when the victims look like Europeans does Europe and Americans cry.
Think about the thousands killed in the donbas since 2014 by Ukraine Nazi AZOV battalion (who are now getting a severe beating by Russia in Mariupol)
Have u helped them? Or do you only cry and mourn who the west don't destroy.
Dear god...
In america those researches are done wrong. there was one in which the researchers explained to the public what was a NFZ and only 30% approved.
Thank god for you
13:56 Was suprised to see my city Izmir so suddenly on the screen :)
You mean Smyrna ;)
@@user-hk4sb8wu9f Whatever makes you sleep better LOL
Amazing that this video even needs to be made.
could you possibly make a video explaining what would happen if Canada aquired nuclear weapons,
I for one believe this would start tensions within the US and even if justified by wanting to defend from the russians up north (or just not be as easily invaded), it would be a strange world for sure.
I love your videos and I'm sure like always you will find something interesting to showcase for this
8:19 Damn I didn't expect you to use WION!
The commitment to match charitable donations at the end is truly inspiring. Thank you so much for your educational endeavors!!!
A no fly zone over Ukraine is a stupid name because it would turn into a nuke fly zone.
Nukes thrown here and there, who is to blame, WAIT.
LETS BLAME GERMANY WHO HAD NO CONTRIBUTION.
@@laxmandutt1109 what the fuck is your problem?
great video, could you do a review on the war lead by nato and USA on lybia syria irak and aswell telling the true about what happend to the civilian? thanks
Legend, thank you for caring

Stop trolling!
@@focumQuarium ??
I have always been amused by such comments when liars are obsequiously thanked for the "truth".
@@mysterious_21 explain please
@@sleeepys_ че там объяснять? вы верите в то что Россия - агрессоры. Правда на нашей стороне.
No fly zone in Bosnia was relatively easy to broke due to mountain terrain and pilots being locals. I remember pilots flying litteraly over the roofs (in full meaning of those words) evading AWACS.
With waste plains of Ukraine no fly zone wouldn't be possible with current technology.
and then there's putins response to worry about
Due to long range strike abilities of modern weapons, I think that a no-fly zone would only be advantageous if Russian forces used mostly paratroopers. I could be wrong though.
0:59 "The Russian Air Force possessions as many as 11 times as many fighters."
1:02 Procedes to show 9 aircraft.
Love that you're uploading so frequently on current issues lately, thanks RealLifeLore! ( Please consider holding Cardano - ADA )
Me being an American (born and raised) living in Germany, I can tell you we don't hesitate about supporting the no-fly zone because wars don't happen in America. They happen in Europe, if things get that bad I'd just leave.
WOW, a unique blend of American you are! Hats off to you.
A nuclear war would destroy America just as much as Europe. There is no escape. Your best bet is neutrality but even then you still have to deal with fallout and nuclear winter.
To give an idea, the Soviet Union created nukes _specifically designed_ to render the USA's prime farmland unusable. Compared to that, hitting big cities is easy.
yeah but ww3 will happen in America and it will be the worst for America because of ICBMs Europe will be destroyed but it won't be a fucking crater + those 10000 nukes will probably create nuclear winter so everyone will be fucked
It's an interesting take, but I'm not sure if it's the principal reason. A CBS News poll was conducted that showed support among Americans for a No-Fly Zone dropped from 59% to 38% when they discovered it would be declared an act of war. Still a worryingly high number, but not nearly the majority when informed of the facts.
From the American POV, war is something that happens far away which they see on television.
It's funny how people think they have a right to opinions on subjects they know nothing about. They get carried away by their feelings, and so couldn't possibly make any sort of rational decision. This is how people blindly end up supporting the wrong things, leading us all into danger. It's a human characteristic that really should be condemned.
2022 will be an interesting year
this channel is absolute gold. Thanks for doing what you do
I have a small criticism with the bit about Poland and its Migs at 13:04 - the plane you showed stock footage of is from the 1950s. The planes that Poland was offering Ukraine were Mig-29s, much more modern craft than what you showed. And part of the reason the US didn't agree to the trade was that the F-16s in question were already earmarked for Taiwan.
They going to send them to Taiwan because the year or two from now there's going to be a lot of problems in Taiwan besides Russia's winning the war regardless what the news media is trying to tell people.
Umm that's called a correction not a criticism
@@isukdik he didn’t explicitly state that the plane on screen was the plane he was talking about, so it’s an implication at most. So I’d still consider it a criticism.
I dont like how on the map you showed krimea as russain. good vid tho
I wanted to install it on my phone but it keeps saying that I have to get the latest version of Microsoft Edge which I have, I've just finished updating it and it keeps saying that, I'm sorry I don't own a laptop and I don't know how to fix it this issue, help me!!!
THANK YOU for that video. You cannot believe how many discussions i had, especially online with people who shame all european governments for not enforcing a no fly zone.... They do not get all the discussed points or just say: "We should just risk the confrontation"....
We should just risk the confrontation. You don't get to pretend to be the world police for 30 years then decide to back off when its an enemy that can punch back.
@@JJAB91 we police weaker powers. We never policed Russia. You don't police other nuclear powers. You just stand shoulder to shoulder, each holding a gun to your own head, promising to shoot yourself and the other person by extension if you believe they will do something crazy.
We cause a nuclear war with Russia, it harms the entire species. I imagine the people in would prefer we not change the weather setting to nuclear winter over Ukraine.
@@JJAB91 Its hard to be the world police though when the world gets turned into a wasteland.
@UAE Emirates Yes. Exactly. We only police little baby nations. We don't risk a nuclear conflict with an actual power to protect those baby nations.
If you are not terrified of a nuclear exchange, then MAD as a concept needs to be revitalized
@UAE Emirates Nukes? Ever heard about that stuff?
