World War Two

NOTE: There is an error in the episode that we regretfully missed in our fact checking. Gabčík and Kubiš were of course Czechoslovak agents, not just Czech, and Gabčík was of Slovak ethnicity. We have re-edited and are working on exchanging the video through YouTube. Until then, our apologies.On another note — I mention the 1,000 Bomber Raid on Cologne in this episode — as with previous videos covering the British area bombing campaign, there’s a great chance that YouTube will age restrict, thereby censoring this video, since it will upset some people that we dare talk about this and not only the war crimes of the Axis powers. To not mention that I will once again face accusations of anti-British sentiments. That is of course nonsense. To anyone that feels the need to re-educate me about how wonderfully effective strategic bombing was, I might point your attention to that I’m neither voicing any opinions of my own in this video, nor those of other historians, but simply reporting on what Churchill, the British Government, Harris, and Singleton said about it in 1942. If you find that offensive or upsetting, blaming me is an act of killing the messenger, but hey … have away at it.
