My first year in the Army was in 1993. I met Gen Powell his last year when he retired. He visited my Ammo bunker at the ASP. He found me and asked me about my work and and my family at home. He gave me a challenge coin. Great man…
@Hanna Alemayahu Sorry buddy. I got out in 98. I did not rejoin when 9/11 hit. I knew the Russians lost and we could not do much better. I don’t care what happened after I got out…
Colin Powell is overrated, he was part of the swamp. He and his boss (GW Bush) lied, cheated trying to get U.N. to vote for Iraq war, making up WMD as excuses. He was a poster boy for identity politics. The only reason he was famous was due to his ethnicity.
Noone reads: Theyre busy showing themselves on social media: even if they did NOBODY would listen currently. Everyone is busy being movie stars in their delluded minds.
Martin Luther King is not even taught which needs to be changed. Parents need to take ownership of their kids in the schools. Yes, Colin Powel needs to be taught with pride. Strength this is important for our young
We lost a good man , an understatement for sure, a four star general, a former United States General, medals given for honor it goes on, highly decorated general who we were so lucky to have especially after 9-11. With his quiet demeanor, dignity, poise, intelligence, he rose to the top , played an important part after 9-11 in helping to strategize the beginning of the war with Iraq. We lost a “good man” but more than that an example of a highly decorated general with such great humility, that always struck me , about Colin Powell what quiet dignity this man possessed , he will be sorely missed and go down in our future history books as “ a great man who possessed that quiet dignity” RIP General Colin Powell , may you rest easy, when God welcomed you He must have said “ Job well done”. My sympathies I offer the entire Powell family in their time of sorrow God Bless the family to gently “let go peacefully”.

@@elsabean6791 He was a nice guy personally it seemed like, but he was also a war criminal. From burning down South Vietnamese villages in his first tour in Vietnam. To covering up the My Lai massacre and getting murderer Colonel John Donaldson off scot free on his second tour. He was involved in Iran-Contra. When he was the Joint Chief of Staff the Airforce bombed Iraqi infrastructure during the Gulf war. This led to tens if not hundreds of thousands of deaths in the 90s. And last but certainly not least, the WMDs. He at best ,gave false information he believed, and at worst lied to the UN about WMDs in Iraq. Leading to the second Iraq war and millions of civilians killed, maimed, and displaced. If we held Colin Powell to same standard we had for the Nazis at Nuremberg he would have been executed for war crimes.
General Powell was not only a fine and good man, he was wise. He treated his subordinates and especially his Personal Protection Detail with respect and humor. I will miss him.
He has rested in this world and made it(this world) his paradise wherein he made merry and took pleasure in the massacre, torture, rape and incarceration of innocent Muslims, men, women, children including the elderly in iraq, Afghanistan, Somalia,yemen, palastenia etc. I thank Allah who sent the last messenger and prophet Muhammad sallalahu aleihi wassalam that whoever follows him will enter jannah and those who heed not enters into hellfire. You see those poor muslims he participated in their massacre are the ones resting in peace inshaAllah. As for your powell him and his likes, a curse on all their houses fiduduniya wal akhira ameen
Colin Powell was a great role model. When he was wrong he admitted it. He did what he thought was good for America. He was a republican that endorsed Obama and voted for Hillary. Knowing there would be criticism he did what he felt was the right thing.
"...being a lot more tolerant of each other, recognizing that whatever our racial differences or ethnic differences might be, or even economic differences, we are all Americans and we all have to live in this home that we call America." - 30 years on and pretty much an utter failure on everyone's part to do this.

Ummm. No. It doesn't a-hole. Because he had blood cancer, s____head. That's what he died of actually. At 84 years old, weakened by his blood cancer, he had a slight breakthrough infection. That was enough to end his life. But he wasn't killed by Covid. If he were younger and completely healthy, his body would have had no problem dealing with that breakthrough infection. As many many others have already done. But when you are 84 and have cancer, that infection can do you in. Same as if he had a cold. But no one would say he died of a cold. Meanwhile thousands and thousands of healthy people are dying of Covid because they didn't get vaccinated. That's what speaks volumes about the vaccine.
he is a cancer survivor and 85! It is your job and mine to get vaccinated and protect people like him...like your parents and my parents! But, who cares about grandma, right???
He has multiple myeloma and is immunosuppressant due to the condition. Although he’s fully vaccinated for COVID, his body doesn’t produce enough antibodies. He has lives an honorable life and RIP.

The negative comments here restores my faith in humanity.
ikr? idk why i see so many people calling him a great and exemplary American, he lied to get the U.S into a war and was never held accountable, Rumsfeld and Powell went without punishment
@@oscarin13 Oscar he owned up to his mistakes..Do you? Those without sin throw the first stone. I'm sure you're in the front of the line and not because you're short; me too!

Ed Bradley May He So Rest In Peace
Colin Powell has honor and also greatness of his career as a U.S military man. . .really a military genius.
YES!
Thank you for your decades of service to the country Secretary Powell.
Good to see Ed Bradley at work again in this blast from the past.
Had no idea he was Black.Time waits for no one.Vax pushed him over finish line.RIP.
Rest In Peace General Powell. You are an inspiration.
@Mark Twain yes is he
Colin Powell , a war-starter 👎
@@flyingdutchman1794 he is you.
A man from humble backgrounds is not humbled by experiences. They were all Americans 8,000 miles from home. Now here at home. God bless the man.
As Colin Powell grew older and smarter, he switched to Volvo.
Hahaaa. That was funny! I actually was surprised to hear that but he seemed to have been mesmerized by Volvo during the last decades of his life.
And he fixed them to run again and sell again
Unfortunately, it feels like America has gone in the opposite direction. I completely agree with his thoughts about America.
If you haven't noticed,Gen Colin Powell looks like Russell Crowe😁
Yes value ... the way he talks, plain accent, fine speech, presented himself well a distinct gentleman.
That murdered innocent people
Right, because that's what matters! It's not about policy!! That's what was so great about Obama! Just the way he read from the teleprompter was so smooth and a big smile after!
RIP sir. You were a good human being and you will be remembered as such.
he is a war criminal and will be remembered as such.
@@AG-ig8uf He had more humanity and decency in his left earlobe than any Republican today has in their entire body.
You should probably read the comments, they seem to overwhelmingly negate your statement.
@@elsabean6791 He was a nice guy personally it seemed like, but he was also a war criminal. From burning down South Vietnamese villages in his first tour in Vietnam. To covering up the My Lai massacre and getting murderer Colonel John Donaldson off scot free on his second tour. He was involved in Iran-Contra. When he was the Joint Chief of Staff the Airforce bombed Iraqi infrastructure during the Gulf war. This led to tens if not hundreds of thousands of deaths in the 90s. And last but certainly not least, the WMDs. He at best ,gave false information he believed, and at worst lied to the UN about WMDs in Iraq. Leading to the second Iraq war and millions of civilians killed, maimed, and displaced. If we held Colin Powell to same standard we had for the Nazis at Nuremberg he would have been executed for war crimes.

General Powell was not only a fine and good man, he was wise. He treated his subordinates and especially his Personal Protection Detail with respect and humor. I will miss him.
A product of and the best of what our Nation has, had to offer. Rest easy Sir, there are still fine Americans who have the watch. HAND Salute...
He has rested in this world and made it(this world) his paradise wherein he made merry and took pleasure in the massacre, torture, rape and incarceration of innocent Muslims, men, women, children including the elderly in iraq, Afghanistan, Somalia,yemen, palastenia etc. I thank Allah who sent the last messenger and prophet Muhammad sallalahu aleihi wassalam that whoever follows him will enter jannah and those who heed not enters into hellfire. You see those poor muslims he participated in their massacre are the ones resting in peace inshaAllah. As for your powell him and his likes, a curse on all their houses fiduduniya wal akhira ameen
He destroyed his legacy by lying the US into a war.
@@mdnadhir9137 ?
YES . . . Hand Salute, Ready Front ! 🇺🇸
Colin Powell was a great role model. When he was wrong he admitted it. He did what he thought was good for America. He was a republican that endorsed Obama and voted for Hillary. Knowing there would be criticism he did what he felt was the right thing.
Lying us into a war where over half a million people died is a great sin that can never be forgotten or forgiven.
I am here after he died! What a great Human Being! There will never be another like him! Thank you Colin Powell!

"...being a lot more tolerant of each other, recognizing that whatever our racial differences or ethnic differences might be, or even economic differences, we are all Americans and we all have to live in this home that we call America." - 30 years on and pretty much an utter failure on everyone's part to do this.
I don’t take advice from war criminals, thanks.

THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING YOU DID PUBLICALLY AND PRIVATELY TO IMPROVE THE LIFE OF ORDINARY PEOPLE!!!@@

That's because Powell originally didn't wanted to attack Iraq. However, because of Cheney and Bush 43's evil ambitions, we ended up knowing the rest of the story!!!
Torments of the grave awaits him. The angels of interrogation will meet him and he will be shown his last place for all eternity twice a day before the Day of Judgment. What did his wealth and status avail him?
Allah سبحانه وتعالى said,
كُلُّ نَفْسٍ ذَائِقَةُ الْمَوْتِ ۗ وَإِنَّمَا تُوَفَّوْنَ أُجُورَكُمْ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ ۖ فَمَن زُحْزِحَ عَنِ النَّارِ وَأُدْخِلَ الْجَنَّةَ فَقَدْ فَازَ ۗ وَمَا الْحَيَاةُ الدُّنْيَا إِلَّا مَتَاعُ الْغُرُورِ
Every Nafs (self, soul) shall taste death. And only on the Day of Resurrection shall you be paid your wages in full. And whoever is removed away from the Fire and admitted to Paradise, he indeed is successful. And life of this world is only the enjoyment of deception (a deceiving thing). [Ãal-'Imraan 3:185]
وَأَمَّا مَنْ أُوتِيَ كِتَابَهُ بِشِمَالِهِ فَيَقُولُ يَا لَيْتَنِي لَمْ أُوتَ كِتَابِيَهْ
And as for him who will be given his Record (of deeds) in his left hand, will say: "I wish that I had not been given my Record!"
وَلَمْ أَدْرِ مَا حِسَابِيَهْ
"And that I had never known how my Account is!"
يَا لَيْتَهَا كَانَتِ الْقَاضِيَةَ
"Would that it (death) had been my end!"

That was because you had been exulting in the earth without any right, and that you used to rejoice extremely (in your error). [Ghaafir 40:75]
تِلْكَ الدَّارُ الْآخِرَةُ نَجْعَلُهَا لِلَّذِينَ لَا يُرِيدُونَ عُلُوًّا فِي الْأَرْضِ وَلَا فَسَادًا ۚ وَالْعَاقِبَةُ لِلْمُتَّقِينَ

You assume there is something after this life. There is no reason to accept such a claim.

وَمَا خَلَقْنَا السَّمَاءَ وَالْأَرْضَ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا بَاطِلًا ۚ ذَٰلِكَ ظَنُّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا ۚ فَوَيْلٌ لِّلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا مِنَ النَّارِ
And We created not the heaven and the earth and all that is between them with falsehood! That is the consideration of those who disbelieve! Then woe to those who disbelieve from the Fire!
أَمْ نَجْعَلُ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ كَالْمُفْسِدِينَ فِي الْأَرْضِ أَمْ نَجْعَلُ الْمُتَّقِينَ كَالْفُجَّارِ
Shall We treat those who believe and do righteous good deeds as those who spread mischief on the earth? Or shall We treat the pious - God-fearing as the criminals? [Sad 38:27-28]
لِيُبَيِّنَ لَهُمُ الَّذِي يَخْتَلِفُونَ فِيهِ وَلِيَعْلَمَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا أَنَّهُمْ كَانُوا كَاذِبِينَ
In order that He may make manifest unto them the truth of that wherein they differ, and that those who disbelieved may know that they were liars. [An-Nahl 16:39]
قَدْ عَلِمْنَا مَا تَنقُصُ الْأَرْضُ مِنْهُمْ ۖ وَعِندَنَا كِتَابٌ حَفِيظٌ

OH NO !! Lied to the World to justify destroying Iraq ! yes he did - he is a disgrace to humankind - a war criminal !!
He was fully vaccinated. That speaks volumes about the vaccine. May you RIP Colin Powell. Thank you for all you have done for our country.
Ummm. No. It doesn't a-hole. Because he had blood cancer, s____head. That's what he died of actually. At 84 years old, weakened by his blood cancer, he had a slight breakthrough infection. That was enough to end his life. But he wasn't killed by Covid. If he were younger and completely healthy, his body would have had no problem dealing with that breakthrough infection. As many many others have already done. But when you are 84 and have cancer, that infection can do you in. Same as if he had a cold. But no one would say he died of a cold. Meanwhile thousands and thousands of healthy people are dying of Covid because they didn't get vaccinated. That's what speaks volumes about the vaccine.
@hybrid alien no no, Trumpist anti-vaxxers don't want to know the facts.
Got us into a needless war in Iraq ? cuz why ? weapons of mass destruction ? how many americans died because of that BIG LIE ?
your words speak volumes about you...
he is a cancer survivor and 85! It is your job and mine to get vaccinated and protect people like him...like your parents and my parents! But, who cares about grandma, right???
He has multiple myeloma and is immunosuppressant due to the condition. Although he’s fully vaccinated for COVID, his body doesn’t produce enough antibodies. He has lives an honorable life and RIP.

In the 1990s, Powell retired from his position of four-star general in the military and began giving speeches at speaking engagements across the country.
He reportedly earned around $64K per speech, and in 2000 it was reported he earned $7million from speeches alone.”
