When Bin Laden got killed, here in NYC, the city was celebrating and rightfully so. Outside The White House it was literally a block party. I have no doubt if Bin Laden’s body was brought back to the States, especially here in NYC, someone would have tried to grab it strung it up like what happened to Benito Mussolini’s body in Milan. Though accounts differentiate on how Bin Laden was killed, the fact was the man was dead. As for Maryia Oktyabrskaya’s story, that actually would be one heck of a movie IF it was done correctly with no stupid ideas from Hollywood.
Unrelated but one of the biggest shames about Hollywood is that they frequently tone down the real life heroisms that Medal of Honor recipients obtain because their documented accomplishments are “too unbelievable”
No the truth of osamas burial is the guy got dropped in the sea so no body will use his grave as an idol so the us army had to bury it a certain time after they killed him
Agreed. As long as they don’t change it like in Fury. War Daddy is based of a real person, the best American tank commander of WW2. The story while impressing isn’t like his story at all.
Bin laden wasn’t even buried in a casket. They dumped his body in the sea while it was wrapped in a black body bag and weighed wit chains to ensure his body would sink.

Hey just a funny thing i like to mention about Bin laden. We found where he was 8 separate times. BUT the tech that was used to find him 7 times was classified and prototypes.. So it couldnt be brought to public because it would need to be wrote WHAT exactly spotted and confirmed him on paper. So what did we do? We send the usual drone to spot him, by that time, 3 days would pass and he was gone again. What im saying is the tech we used to find him several times was not allowed to be spoke or wrote. So technically it didnt exist, so technically we didnt see him. You get the point.

@MaxCornerstonethecool says the human who's been around for such an insignificant amount of time its almost funny. Don't be so sure. Wise people leave possibilities open.
@@aces1053 that's your reasoning!? Because humans have free will and as an extension of that we have consequences for our actions. Death is only a state that unbelievers treat as an end but it helps to remember that God gives life and life ends and it ends because of man's choice to turn from God and pursue is own reasoning. Much like you do when you DECLARE that "God is not real". Do you really credit yourself with such vast knowledge of this whole universe to be able to ascertain a thing so big and consequential as the God of our universe? Even if I didn't believe in God I would never dare declare something I couldn't really know like the universe has no Maker. Especially when I know from personal experience that anything mechanical is always created by intelligence. But that's just my two cents. I know there's so much I don't know so I could never be so sure of something so consequential.
For a part 2 of this video, it would be apt to show punitive expeditions (literally intended for punishment) - from the 5th century BC with the Achaemenids and their campaigns against the Greeks, to the early 20th century with Pancho Villa Expedition. Human desire for vengeance against their fellow man has been around as long as they existed.
The Armenians slayed all but one of the three pashas. In 2023, a memorial was unveiled in Yerevan to commemorate the operation which drew ire from both Azerbaijan & its mortal enemy turkey There is a museum called Tsitsernakaberd which commemorates the genocide in the country's capital & features the revenge killing
Even though they're cartoon versions I really like the attention to detail on the guns used. The Armenian part with a Luger and a Mauser C-96 are very cool!
the Germans were pissed when Reinhard Heydrich, was killed the Lidice massacre was a reprisal for the assassination of Reinhard Heydrich 340 people and 82 children were killed
Ah yes Moamar Ghadaffi got a building brought down on him during Operation El Dorado Canyon literally. Lydia Vladimirovna Litvak known affectionately as Lieutenant Lilya was one of the most famous female aces in The Great Patriotic War (Russian name for WWII
Gadaffi actually paid back reparations and tried to work with the UN to prevent further incidents. He was killed because he was working with the African Union to change their dollar standard to gold instead of oil.
The Jets at the beginning of video are Galeb G-2. That jet is capable of taking off and landing on grass field. And that's a Yugoslav jet plane, which is still in use in some countries. Believe it or not, one Hollywood star such as John Travolta has this Yugoslav jet in his private posesion. Revenge attacks were also done in WWII. When WWII begun in Yugoslavia on April 6th 1941, Germany started bombing Belgrade. During that time there were 3 ways of attack on the Belgrade. Then on same date, Yugoslav pilots decided to do the revenge bombing on Germans. They bombed German troops stationed in Vienna and Graz, making very big delays to German advancing's towards Yugoslavia. And believe it or not, the Yugoslav pilots were the first one who bombed Graz and Vienna.
The death of general Yamamoto honestly saddens me the most. He was a good general and, having studied at Harvard, was actually against fighting the US despite having coordinated the attack. Overall a very intelligent man with a very good spirit. Of all the generals lost in the war, general Yamamoto is the one I grieve the most
