i know c.n.n. the m s n b c news have taken some not slightly but the fact is i admire their commitment to cover all sides of the story just in case one of them happens to be accurate. that was funny but it's close and for the truth and might think. it's because one whole attention and the mainstream media works side by side the joke is actually on here the coming up. at our teen years we have to print press the o.l. because the news of the world just is not this funny i'm not laughing dammit i'm

not how. you guys talk to the jokes well handled it makes us happy. alive repeated a thousand times becomes the truth the man who sent that even proved it the lie became part of himself and the system he served his name was use of he was nazi germany's minister of propaganda the myth that he created exists to this day.

these are the children of good business. several years after this picture was taken the third reich sprint's of all ideologies decided to sacrifice their lives while he did so after realizing that all if is really a war story had been lost. from the diary of dr joseph june sixteenth one thousand nine hundred forty one. if we win question our methods as it is we have so much to answer for already that we must win otherwise we those who are the head of all that we hold dear will be eradicated. to work. on june twenty second one thousand nine hundred forty one nazi germany invades the soviet union without a declaration of war the bombings and shellings bring about tora and uncertainty of

what may lie in store the german army drops twenty two million leaflets on red army positions the great lie begins. to me. by god. and that's a my list. and that is easily enya that put on some play on the night that it was eighty propaganda come by i mean. their lives were beautifully phrased read only soldiers were cynically offered to make a choice either to perish at the hand of the indestructible german army surrender and return to their families to live happily ever after one of their goals was to turn the red army soldiers against their commanders and commissars.

their story. was to be some to move it. to be just a simple saluki be to consult a food. from a memo by the head of the high command of the rare mocked field marshal general with some kind of political compass ours bear a special distinction a red star with the sickle and a hammer on their straight they must be separated from other p.o.w.'s in order to deny them the ability to influence captured soldiers upon being separated from the prisoners there to be eliminated. however even soldiers who weren't political commissars were faced with a life far from the bliss described in germany's power flits by mid one nine hundred forty two less than half of the three point five million red army soldiers who'd surrendered was still a life a photo exhibition called through captivity was recently held in moscow in their

memory several german students were keen to attend. only what the cutely good had never been up in the hall or poorly in the junk going to put a welcome welcome wished to me it was you could shift out operating with a well. off you would have it done you would just was nice to wind up in the mean you. sure to put it would you. buy it a more. intimate type. of loosening up about santa. able to put out a. memo from the high command of the air months confidential september eight hundred forty one. this is the first time that german soldiers face an adversary instructed not only in the ways of war but also politics. of big shoulders have forfeited their right to be treated like coup soldiers in accordance with the geneva convention relative to the treatment of prisoners of war. less than a month after nazi germany and they did the soviet union news came that stalin's

eldest son jacob was missing in action soon photos of him appeared on german propaganda leaflets. they read that has voluntarily surrendered to the nazis. storch. the new new. starless judge and skipper produced you for your nuance for abuse joe very soon style in the purple and then you sean roared the verse up the rudeness should stay real rewards. young of had indeed been captured the only difference was that he was captured during an attempt to break out of a siege rather than voluntarily surrendering he was brought to sachsenhausen concentration camp thirty five kilometers from berlin he was a prof was a prominent prisoner he was not imprisoned inside the prison is camp for ordinary

prisoners where we are standing now there was a special camp for prominent prisoners and this is where he was imprisoned yacob judicially was kept in one of these barracks intelligence officers were interrogating him every day but still couldn't make iraq of cooperate he was in the camp until one thousand nine hundred three there was even a myth that german officials offered stalin's son in exchange for german field marshall paolo's had been captured in stalingrad in one thousand nine hundred three another story that was later disproved after yacob really realized he was being used by nazi propaganda he decided to take his own life by jumping on a barbed wire in a prison camp here in sachsenhausen. in total over one hundred thousand people perished in sachsenhausen during its years of operation. it was where s.s. officers underwent training in order to serve a new concentration camps located throughout occupied countries. that included

death camps built for the purpose of annihilating entire peoples. the so-called nazi aizen group and killed more than two million jews on occupied soviet soil they deliver death without mercy women and children even the elderly most normal people would go mad having to execute orders like that. but officers in s.s. uniform had no such qualms never for alone did they consider that what they were doing was wrong let alone and being a crime they were trained and prepared by nazi propaganda today even the radical measures are not radical enough of couples used to say. here in the u.s.s.r. german soldiers were captives of another myth that in order to bring down the soviet system it was essential to annihilate the jews since they were believed to

be the primary foundation of boss of islam in other occupied countries the germans would force the jews into ghettos they were allowed to live after invading the u.s.s.r. the nazis began to annihilate entire jewish communities. where he did what group he could pursue oil is. when you put the steal steal of sin here those are needed to do the sold out this is the. one instance show the business blowhole. belittles cause of the political move for all you risk use when you do business group report on the. news that on the moon using your blood you clue before that was to love was really sure when you're all still with us. in his younger years joseph goebbels made several unsuccessful attempts of becoming a writer and journalist the career of the third reich smain ideologist took off after the nazis one elections one of his first initiatives was the practice of book

burnings reminiscent of burning heretics at the stake in medieval times the first book burning took place in one thousand and thirty three in the center of berlin under the motto let's clear germany of un-german ideas and there which in many ways had the bullet solution in the nowhere but the most poignant disobey choose to believe which in unison in their. deepest into e t even on the she shall studios news cause it's what they do must some. and usually as i knew most native guard was a compass go to the crimea that voted that i'll not do that you decreases i mean she. in today's berlin books are sold right next to the spot where they were once burned. there are lots of history books here including those on the nazis rise to power in germany this is the moment when google's office got the green light the so-called ministry of public and lightman and propaganda the third reich was housed in this building on the him. from one nine hundred thirty three to one nine hundred

forty one the agency's budget increase nearly ten fold. but i'd be a cool concept. in this to scare. you into best openly question the minium that's the because being even small that i didn't believe that you could own me at the pride that was a beacon of seals not of women that was given say even that they had to fight it but if we didn't begin with an honest man sitting with his ear on the program to prospects. ultra right wing rallies in modern germany they do not directly associate themselves with the ideas of the third reich they are fighting to make jobs available to germans and to immigrants from other countries germany has lived through this before and what these slogans led to is well known but for all true right wing supporters germany of the 1930's is a model of order and stability.

this is another example of a history lesson some people fail to learn this time in ukraine the slogan glory to ukraine glory to the heroes heard in kiev is a carbon copy of the greeting used by ukrainian nationalists who collaborated with hitler's forces during the war but he. zealots i mean. in the good. girl for you. doesn't you scored a fourth design school. for. in the early two thousand and fourteen during the so-called cura mind on rally in kiev local nationalists reverently carried portraits of steep on bundy. in one hundred forty one he tried to establish an independent republic of ukraine as a protectorate of hitler's germany. from the it's

a story. the . border with artists. but it's supposed to be some of the so that's the dawning shish to war you bring in some you can read you want to. begin. to see an excerpt from a letter by the head of the party chancellor a margin mormon from july twenty third nine hundred forty two. by no means should one introduce any measures giving a non germans a sense of ownership members of the non german population it should in no way have access to higher education as yours of the opinion that reading and reading skills are quite enough for them that includes so-called ukrainians.

great army soldiers had to pay a great price to liberate the territories occupied by the nazis victory day is one of the most if not the most cherished national holidays in russia despite the fact that nearly seventy years have passed since the end of the second world war numerous outrageous myths continue to spread some of which even doubles what n.t. . aviation at the thin adventure providing it are called way out of character or pretty about the if not prevent. shortly deeper surge there could very summers or get there is standing. aside a pretty a.b.l. story or start a business. mentioned you have the right of the russian a. room with anything you prefer. with diana nyad would you go but there it is now carries a dash and you put that was there. after the war many german generals were all too

keen to publish their memoirs while stalin stuff officers were forbidden to do so that's why much of what's known about the second world war in europe was learned largely from memoirs written by the defeat its side. as a new physician i swear to abide by the hippocratic oath. to the best of my ability and judgment. i will prescribe for the good of my patients. i will not give deadly doses to anybody. or advise others to do so. i will never do harm to. doctors of the dogs on.

i'm abby martin the stories we cover here you're not going to hear any right that are fixed or extra bad while some tough there's a reason they don't want you to know about never important and all three said we should be completely outraged now let's break the set. this is mile of a park a popular tourist destination today but few people know that during the second world war one of the country's top secret constructions was hidden away here so secret that a special metro line was built to connect it to the kremlin in one nine hundred thirty six the district of a smile of a became a forbidden zone construction began on the central u.s. the south stevie i'm named after joseph stalin which was meant for two hundred thousand spectators but three years later work was put on hold the facility disguised as a stadium was in fact already completed until one thousand nine hundred forty one another myth appeared there were rumors that the soviet government had abandoned

moscow the offices in the kremlin were empty and that the city had been surrendered to the germans but the truth was that stalin never actually left moscow and continued working in the secret bunker here in his mind that. stalin always spoke quietly for this reason special acoustics were designed so that everyone sitting at this table could hear him say. the conference hall of the general headquarters looks more like a palace talent's private chambers remain in immaculate condition a battle map hangs on the wall it was updated daily while stalin worked here.

another common myth is that stalin and his circle allegedly reinforced the german army with their own hands just before the war started the very much officers are said to have conducted military exercises at soviet training ranges in reality after hitler came to power the volume of military cooperation. tween germany and the u.s.s.r. fell considerably from the diary of dr joseph campbell used to nine hundred forty one cooperation with russia was in fact a stain on our honor but we shall soon wipe it clean i said this to this your get agrees with me completely that your believes the operation will take about four months but i believe even less where on the brink of an unprecedented victorious military campaign we must. research or ego is the author of the book the great war that was lied about based

on archive materials it is a book the author attempts to debunk the most common myth namely that stalin was preparing to attack nazi germany himself but hitler turned out to be smarter and struck first. of course i mean. give them some good bits. give us. the only. principle but then you know at the up across the pond. it's a little something good to see a push to discuss who will publish an illusion. in one nine hundred forty one the soviet defense industry was working at full capacity despite this the number of german military units at the border exceeded the soviet armies five fold this distribution of forces would have made a preemptive attack on germany unwise. the

first days of the nazi invasion remain shrouded in mystery and yet there was one myth during the years of perestroika stalin had so much faith in hitler's non-aggression pact with the soviet union that he was blind to the german threat and consequently failed in his own responsibility as the country's commander in chief. the myth that stalin was in a state of shock could be easily refuted recently declassified documents reveal stalin shed you for june twenty second one hundred forty one the day nazi germany invaded the u.s.s.r. . stallion's visitors people's commissar for foreign affairs moloto variety of five forty five left at twelve o five for general steps to go to ride to five forty five left eight thirty am but he people's commissar for foreign affairs visions key arrived at seven thirty left a ten forty come in turn leader dimitrov arrived at eight forty left at ten forty.

berlin the nazi troops marched before heading to the eastern front prior to invading the soviet union germany had prepared the so-called plan all sorts of plan east it would have involved about eighty percent of the population of conquered countries to be moved out by force and replaced with people of the master race the plan was to be carried out immediately after germany's victory over the soviet union. the plan to colonize parts of the soviet union extended over the next thirty years as long as german troops continue to fight for main top secrets in order to avoid an uprising the population of the occupied territories was still being fed myths about their future happy prosperous life according to the planned two cities were to be completely destroyed leningrad and moscow. the siege of leningrad lasted nine hundred days during which nearly six hundred thousand people died of starvation in

recent years another myth has appeared that such human losses could have been avoided if the soviet command had surrendered the city to the nazis but anyone who says that has no idea of. hitler's master plan and the fate he had in store for the city and its residents. from the diary of the chief of the general staff from sculptor july eighth nine hundred forty one the jurors determined to raise moscow or leningrad to the ground to make sure that we don't have to feed their population went to the cities must be demolished by airstrikes this national catastrophe will not only wipe off the centers of both of us them but also that of the entire muscovy.

one year after the siege of leningrad began a break in the course of war finally arrived. field-marshal pulse we both are of operation barbarossa was defeated at stalingrad. and then became clear to many for math so jews and officers that the quick and victorious war that gave us promised on the eastern front but also turned out to be a myth. after the defeat in the battle of stalingrad many high ranking nazi officers were taken prisoner they were brought here to appeal w.

camp outside moscow after that great defeat many captured nazis began to cooperate with soviet authorities and apply their own propaganda technique to anti fascist campaigning. from that moment on goebbels propaganda had to compete with power flits encouraging german advance forces to surrender to soviet troops. the national put up my gun the zilla after another that i knew. some media veneer ski-doo sri the one that it's a book of bull which national propaganda spot. showed the one million the davis said this she ends of it but she lived by. hand the whole gem by even that. one nine hundred forty

five the war is coming to an end joseph goebbels his office calls for the last resources to be thrown at the war effort the hitler youth weren't enough to defend berlin so military propaganda encouraged women and the elderly to take up arms. when soviet troops entered berlin and his family fled to hitler's bunker that was hidden underneath this where it's now filled with soil and a holocaust memorial has been erected on top of it on may first one thousand nine hundred forty five the third rice chief ideologist and his wife magda committed suicide before doing so they poisoned all six of their children with cyanide. it would be nice to pull out i'm sure it will miss the on that there's a caucus i've been with that they had to leave bill weir i did janja which pricey but each asylum did tills us in with their model to somebody china and russia law
