Really interesting. I guess hitler didn’t get that the Roman Empire was built/lasted for 1,000 years because they incorporated others into their empire.

Thank you very much. I just watched this video and was ready to comment, but you were there ahead of me. One means "love" and the other "life". A great deal of difference!

"...they believed Norwegian women were perfect for their program..." Ha I'm 100% Norwegian, with brown eyes and brown hair and a genetic disorder called Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. I'm glad I wouldn't have been suitable for the nazis.
Dang, my first thought for this subject was, "oh no, they're starting to reach for material.. 'interesting' facts on the Lebensborn??" But my mistake. These were quite interesting actually. From finding that they started such eugenics programs well before the invasions began, to a member of ABBA being one of them.
Wow I had previously heard & read a little bit of information on this topic but didn't have a clue about the severity & extent of this program. I really feel bad for the children, it's not their fault they were born into madness. Smh
They are not refugees. They are migrants who passed through other countries (some even crossing an ocean) with the goal of illegally entering, then taking benefits from, the US. They have been told to stop coming. They have been told they’ll be detained. Someone (I think we know who) is encouraging them to come anyway. Then, what they were warned of happens.
The Norwegian women had it easy. In Yugoslavia, women who had affairs with German or Italian officers were shot and their children raised by family or adoption.
It’s amazing how many of these Nazis believed in this perfect race and hardly any of them meet the requirements of the master race. It also amazes me as to how many people go on about how bad the Nazis were ( as I agree they were bad ) but turned around and did things just as bad. I wonder how many liberals would approve of taking a child from its mother because mommy wasn’t a lady or made poor choices in her younger years. I have read many books over the years and have seen documentaries over the antisemitism that many countries have had even back in WWI. Also of the many atrocities that occurred in the days following WWII. I often think why was that never mentioned in history classes when I was a kid.
Terry Grossmann The irony of your second question is that the liberals are currently protesting the republicans that are supporting the taking of children from their mothers because the mother made a poor choice. XD But yes, so few Germans actually met the requirements of being a “pure-blood German” that the planned Aryan race became the race of hypocrisy. Lol
Melly Kidd and how many children are separated when parents or parent is arrested for committing a crime? So what’s the solution put the children in jail with the parent or just look the other way and allow people to commit crimes because they have children? I don’t have a solution to the problem. But I do hate to see children having to suffer. The only solution I can come up with is perhaps parents or would be parents use their heads and not put their children in these situations. I know that’s just wishful dreaming in that most people who commit crimes know they are doing so and yet they don’t care. What I can say is my Uncle legally immigrated here from Peru South America and my Grandmother along with my dad, who was 9 at the time, legally immigrated here from Europe. My Uncle is pretty vocal on his thoughts against illegal immigration and has been since I can remember. Like I said, I don’t have the answers other than there is a right way to do things and a wrong way. I just don’t feel kids should have to suffer because their parents went about things the wrong way.
Its still being made up is why. Only the living write history. If you're dead or unable to defend what others say about you because of propoganda and hate (like Nazis) then whatever is written becomes accepted whether it really happened or not.
Can you do a video on the Nazi death cult and strange rituals in the creepy castle built by slaves worked to death? Also the South American Nazi villages exposed by Tom Kennedy?
Dear Simon, though I know, you are only the presenter, but what's wrong with the counting in this essay? The "Second Reich" or as we call it the "Kaiserreich" lasted from January, 18th 1871 to November 9th, 1919, 58 years, 9 months and 22 days are not exactly over a thousand years?! The Hohenzollern dynasty in Prussia was part of the Holy Roman Empire, you can't count them double, do you? Then again the Nazi dictatorship lastet for full 12 years (not eleven) from January/March 1933 [depending on whether you count Hitler's installment as Reichskanzler (aka Machtergreifung) or the parliament agreeing to the "Ermächtigungsgesetz"] as the starting point and May 8th 1945 with the conditionless surrender by Dönitz as its final day. Otherwise very intersting. Even I as a history-affine German didn't know all the presented facts about this horrible "programm". And when you look at all the big-shot Nazis, most of them wouldn't have passed Lebensborn-requirements - such a schizophrenic program. CU twinmama
This video seems to make zero distinction between children born through the Lebensborn program and ones that were simply born through German soldiers having affairs with women in occupied countries. Not every child born from a German father and Scandinavian mother was a Lebensborn baby.
Himmler told all his soldiers to fratanize with Norwegian women and make araiyan babies. That's why Norway had 9 lebensborn homes ( second only tp germany) mothers could leave their children if they chose to live he said
Yeah, I wonder there they got that from. The house of Hohenzollern - with Hitlers hero Frederich the Great - were kings of Prussia from longer, 1701-1918. Still not a 1000 years, obviously.
The Hohenzollern Prussia dominated 2nd German Reich did NOT last 1000 years. It began in 1870 with the defeat of the 2nd French Empire at Sedan and lasted until 1918. The 1st German empire began in 800AD and lasted until Napolean ended it in the 1806 AD. .

My stepmother had an Uncle who was indoctrinated young to be a Hitler youth. After WWII his family moved to the United States and started to become Americans, except for him. I never met the man, just heard stories through my father. It seems that my stepmother's uncle was such a Hitler lover his entire family disowned him, moved back to Europe leaving him the states for the rest of his sad lonely life.
Anna-Frid was a Lebensborn? Proof the something positive can come out of even the worst evil.. (Unless you're not an ABBA fan!) P.S. Doesn't Lebensborn mean "Love Born" which .correct me if I'm wrong, is the German expression for "Love Child" since many of these children were born out of wedlock?
Her name often gets mentioned when this subject is raised. But her father wasn't in the SS and she wasn't born in a Lebensborn home either. All the evidence is that she was the result of a two year, ill-fated love affair.
@@chelseachargerHimmler told his soldiers to fratanize with ariyan women as much as they could and make babies which Fridas father did. I would be willing to bet she was not his only Norwegian child. You didn't have to be born in a home to be considered lebensborn.
@@Vikinggirl1679 We've been over this before. Yes, German soldiers were encouraged to fraternise with Norwegian women but that was not in the Lebensborn program. That program had been set up and run by the SS, the devout believers in Nazi ideology and the 'master race'. Those SS members had to prove their own ancestry. The women who were selected to bear children had to prove their 'pure blood' too. You might think that all Scandinavians would meet the criteria but that is not true. The Sami peoples in the North of the Scandinavian Peninsula were not classed as 'pure' and anyone with a ancestor from the Sami people would be rejected. Frida's father was a regular soldier with a wife and baby daughter back home in Germany when he was sent to Norway. We can speculate all we want about his intentions but he gave the Lyngstad family his true name and photograph's of himself. In none of the biographies of ABBA or Frida is there any suggestion that he fathered other children when in Norway. It is known that on his last visit to see Frida's mother before he was evacuated, he cycled 25 miles from Narvik in the middle of the night, through snow to see her. Then rode the way back before his ship sailed in the morning. Sounds like he cared for her, to cycle alone in the night when there were Norwegian Resistance units about. When he was found to be still alive in 1977, he denied any knowledge of Lebensborn and that it was simply a genuine love affair. The point is, the Lyngstad family had no contact with the Lebensborn program. In fact, there was no program for most of the pregnancy because Germany had already lost the war. Frida is a 'war child' like hundreds of thousands of others born from liaisons in WW2.
@@chelseacharger go correct yourself! I choose to believe the facts presented here and elsewhere. I have no idea who the hell you are why should I listen to you??? Bye!
Top Tenz: Odd question, but considering they thought themselves to be the master race, what were the Nazi’s religious beliefs. I have no desire to Google it or research it, but could make an interesting video. Please note: I abhor Nazis and now-nazism/white supremacy. I’m just wondering how they reconciled their atrocities.
It’s really easy to justify atrocities in the name of religion. There’s no religion the Nazis could have been that could NOT have been used to justify their actions.
The writer of the book the show is based on has said that everything that happened in the show has happened at some point in the past. I love that show
sandra sandoval yes I looked further into it and am finding this is currently really happening forced surrogacy is happening in India, 2nd, 3rd and fourth wives in Islam have lessor rights and are essentially brought in when the first wife cannot have children and to ease the sexual demands on her. The first wife and relatives treat newer wives as slaves in all respects. The woman loose there name and take the name of the firstborn son.
I have one of the Gold cross medals that they gave to the Aryan mothers. There was bronze, silver, and gold medals given based on the number of pure babies you had.
You spell it correctly as Lebesborn. You pronounce it as it were written "liebensborn". I know you're very, very busy recording for all your channels, but you should do as the BBC newsreaders do: run an eye over the script and check the pronunciation of unusual and of foreign words - Wikipedia is a help for the latter.
Lebensborn doesnt mean Anything in German . I am Confident , as a German Native Speaker , that you messes up Somewhere . Because "Lifenborn" oder "Lebensgeboren" was definitly not the Name of the Program .
Nicht wirklich. Born bedeutet Quelle oder "umgangssprachlich" eher noch Quell'. Die verwendete Übersetzung ist ein bisschen umständlich aber grundsätzlich korrekt.
No no, you are confusing Himler and Goring. The latter committed suicide in prison whereas Himler was murdered by a British Sargent after he was taken prisoner near the Danish border.

In none of the biographies of ABBA or Frida is there any suggestion that he fathered other children when in Norway. It is known that on his last visit to see Frida's mother before he was evacuated, he cycled 25 miles from Narvik in the middle of the night, through snow to see her. Then rode the way back before his ship sailed in the morning. Sounds like he cared for her, to cycle alone in the night when there were Norwegian Resistance units about. When he was found to be still alive in 1977, he denied any knowledge of Lebensborn and that it was simply a genuine love affair. The point is, the Lyngstad family had no contact with the Lebensborn program. In fact, there was no program for most of the pregnancy because Germany had already lost the war. Frida is a 'war child' like hundreds of thousands of others born from liaisons in WW2.
@@chelseacharger go correct yourself! I choose to believe the facts presented here and elsewhere. I have no idea who the hell you are why should I listen to you??? Bye!
Damn is it me or is Simon a bit speedy today .
Fascinating and sad😔
Thank you
This is fascinating. I’m a ww2 buff so I love this. ❤️❤️

Odd question, but considering they thought themselves to be the master race, what were the Nazi’s religious beliefs. I have no desire to Google it or research it, but could make an interesting video. Please note: I abhor Nazis and now-nazism/white supremacy. I’m just wondering how they reconciled their atrocities.
It’s really easy to justify atrocities in the name of religion. There’s no religion the Nazis could have been that could NOT have been used to justify their actions.
Lebensborn ist eines der Inteligentesten in der Menschheit Geschichte.
I wonder if this was where the idea for the Hulu series "Hand maids tale" came from ? 🤔
No.
The writer of the book the show is based on has said that everything that happened in the show has happened at some point in the past. I love that show
sandra sandoval yes I looked further into it and am finding this is currently really happening forced surrogacy is happening in India, 2nd, 3rd and fourth wives in Islam have lessor rights and are essentially brought in when the first wife cannot have children and to ease the sexual demands on her. The first wife and relatives treat newer wives as slaves in all respects. The woman loose there name and take the name of the firstborn son.
Well in that they wanted ANY women that could have babies
I totally read "Nazi Lesbian Program" there. Whew... glad I was wrong.
Acidfox86 There's undoubtedly porn of that idea.
I would rather that have happened, but the Nazis killed gays as well.
But only gay men (Please correct me if I'm wrong)
IRONIC THAT GOEBBELS WAS VERY WEIRD TO BE AN ARYAN.
Congrats 2 a million subscribers
Nobody is going to talk about the extreme likeness between Ebner Gregor and Simon?
I have one of the Gold cross medals that they gave to the Aryan mothers. There was bronze, silver, and gold medals given based on the number of pure babies you had.
Wtf is the "fount of love" program?
You spell it correctly as Lebesborn. You pronounce it as it were written "liebensborn". I know you're very, very busy recording for all your channels, but you should do as the BBC newsreaders do: run an eye over the script and check the pronunciation of unusual and of foreign words - Wikipedia is a help for the latter.
ABBA is just so ABBA-SOME!
Lee-been "love" lay-been "life". (sigh)
Interesting
It's pretty ironic. Hitler's own lineage is unknown. He might have had Jewish blood himself. Plus he wasn't even German
You're right, he was from Austria.
The Austrians are Germans.
Idk for you guys but this sounds like a dog breading but for humans
Lebensborn doesnt mean Anything in German . I am Confident , as a German Native Speaker , that you messes up Somewhere . Because "Lifenborn" oder "Lebensgeboren" was definitly not the Name of the Program .
Nicht wirklich. Born bedeutet Quelle oder "umgangssprachlich" eher noch Quell'. Die verwendete Übersetzung ist ein bisschen umständlich aber grundsätzlich korrekt.
They pulled “out” too soon ha ha.
I love Abba even more now..
The Nazis were hoping for agnetha, they got Freda instead
Anyone else getting serious "Handmaid's Tale" vibes?
That doctor looks like chikatilo
No no, you are confusing Himler and Goring. The latter committed suicide in prison whereas Himler was murdered by a British Sargent after he was taken prisoner near the Danish border.
TheBlues32 My information comes from the historian David Irving who published a major study on Himler. I accept it as credible.
Maureen Barnes You really shouldn't. David Irving is known to associate with people of questionable character and motive.
Himmler took cyanide before the British could interrogate him. The British wanted information. It wouldn't make sense just to haul off and kill him.
@@maureenbarnes7496no himmler killed himself in prison.
This better be the only time ABBA are at number 1 this year!
The Holy Roman Empire did last 1,000 years. But the Hohenzollern empire only lasted from 1871 to 1918. That's not even close to a thousand years.
That’s 47 years!
Leh-benz born. The correct pronunciation
just missed it by 989 years lol
the program took unmarried women that became pregnant a place to have their babies without being aborted and gave them up for adoption ...que the evil music
Only certain types of women though.
vsauce?
So... A breeding program?
Marta Kristen???? I worship Lost In Space.
It's pronounced Leh-behns-born
"wouldn't it be niiiiice?"
Great show but I wish the narrator would check his pronunciation.
