oh romantic figures. you ordered to be a great war leader. large shoes or larges are famous for bear. the duke of marlborough, bull craig roberts, is a former assistant treasury secretary for economic policy in his writing. he analyzes the factors that lead to world war 2. churchill had gone into the war seeking power. was avenue is true, the prime minister ship mm yoseph this ariana village starlen. original name joe gut feeling the son of a shoemaker and a peasant woman. he had ruled the country since 1922. if you look objectively at the achievements of the soviet and jaron stollins period, you would have to say that they were tremendous. social welfare benefits were provided to the soviet population of medical care, education, living standards,

blue professor grove, a 3rd, ph. d, at montana state university in new jersey is well known for his work on soviet history and politics. he was a major political figure, certainly one of the most prominent political leaders of the 20th century. but at 1st the allies treat uncle joe as style and is referred to in the west with arrogance. the soviet leda was from a low social background and had been through prisons and exile. stalin rose from the lowest of the ranks. he in fact named himself, stalin, which means man of steel. scott bennett, the counter terrorism specialist and former u. s. army analyst is well versed in the complex history of us soviet cooperation and 2nd world war years you have stolen rise up and quite an effective leadership

role under, under war 2 and counteracting the german advances. franklin delano roosevelt. the 32nd you as president, led the country from 1933 to 1945. franklin roosevelt came from an extraordinarily wealthy family of very high elite socialite family dating back to the 1600s. the roosevelt family. the delano family were old money that had built their fortunes in merchant ah, ship building other trades. roosevelt was a pragmatist. and when it suited american interests was prepared to cooperate with the soviet union. it was under his rule. the usaa via diplomatic relations were established in 1933. franklin delano roosevelt is recognized by many in the

american historical and academic and political ranks as one of the greatest for term presidents in history. the only president to ever, sir. 4 terms. in fact, for his work in resuscitating the united states after an economic depression that occurred after the fall of the stock market in the 19 twenty's. the big 3 is how the allied 2nd world war leaders were known. they had different personalities, were from very different backgrounds and had opposing views, each defended their own peoples and ruling class. his interests that miss donna, he, indigo. she stood a man chide krista, thank up as non east in his books and on lot. so who has a ph d in history? so really analyzes the events of world war 2 as well. i'll ask my

leaving the shift to the main check dash i enjoy has been place in creek thing dodge fund to the hash top notch dunbar in dinner for she that i desire shafting on 40 dish. oh no one hash. hash smiley guy, i says rom no, yes. you got shown in his cup heiner chapter. ah, officially, world war 2 began when german troops attacked poland on september the 1st 1979. but re shaping the world has started long before that. 938. austrian unsure this the invasion of czechoslovakia and its partition by

germany, poland, and hungary, czechoslovakia his allies, great britain and france, are accused of betraying it for the sake of peace with nazi germany. poland and hungary took part in the partition of czechoslovakia. some in europe felt at poland, had enthusiastically taken part in the robbery and destruction of the check. a slovak stays us. president roosevelt had no objection to either the austrian angeles or the petition of czechoslovakia. the united states had no desire to interfere in europe's conflict. the world was sliding into a major war, but churchill and stolen was the only the politicians his seem to know. it just seems pretty well, greg. you know it bizarre. processed tricks like if don't justly a put your boss, you'll get famous. your horse contractual. like, you know, porter gonzales was to cheer west coach unifor. you. judy daughter, jim's from

a washington rudolph slave war. your british school. so years ago delish were sama boom. shasta. whereas dill could double a torrent which flow it you just called the soviet ortho was in a thanked, ignored events, took their courses. if soviet russia didn't exist for that, a heavy price would soon be paid in munich, britain and germany signed a mutual non aggression pact that was the culmination of the policy to appease hitler. ah, i have brought you peace. prime minister chamberlain probably tell the british people on his return from munich churchill reply we have sustained a total unmitigated defeat. ah,

those are the features which marked an improvident stewardship for which great britain and france have dearly to pay. churchill beak realised on. and he was alone in the british leadership that this policy of what's called appeasement. you know, encouraging hitler. ah, had been a big mistake. ah ah, ah ah ah.

what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy even foundation. let it be an arms race, his on offense, very dramatic development only personally and getting to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very critical time time to sit down and talk me . it was clear to churchill, the redrawing of european borders, had begun. war was inevitable. but as he wasn't a cabinet minister, he couldn't change anything much later, churchill, right?

those whether he is of my desolate solitude. the situation in munich was also noticed in the united states. some often said that hitler must have false chamberlain at gunpoint, france and england have concluded a shameful peace. march 1939. the soviet union had a proposal for the western countries to form an anti fascist block to counter hitler's intentions, dissolved and trying to rally the west, make a stand with them against fascism. they opposed munich. they oppose allowing hitler into czechoslovakia, but nobody would do that. so wasn't just in 1039 when the soviet will proposed and elias, but britain and france against hitler. it had been actually throughout the late

last half of the 19th thirty's from peter couldn't make russia and professor of history at the american university in washington, dc analyzed his the balance of power that developed in pre war europe, a kind of stop hitler. we could have prevent quarto because helen was waiting and knew he would wait. and he was bluffing. and assuming that the west was back in his band, up to him at the west, was hoping him any real elements in the west for hopefully that he was just going to go east. so in the thirty's, the soviets are the ones who are most strongly opposed to the nazis. negotiations between the ussr, britain and france to establish an anti fascist blog, reached an impasse because secret british german negotiations were taking place at the same time in return for guaranteeing the integrity of the british empire.

britain offered hitler freedom of action in the east. for britain to survive, to russia had to be sacrificed churchill objects. if for instance, mister chamberlain, on receipt of the russian offer had replied yes, let us 3 band together and break hitler's neck. history might have gone a different way. it was clear to starlen that the western powers were ignoring his proposals and could no longer be relied upon. and by 1939, almost all of europe had already signed agreements with hitler. 1933 germany, france, britain and italy conclude the full power packed 1934. the bill suit ski, hitler packed between poland and germany as site. 1935, the naval agreement between britain,

a. germany is concluded. 19 association britain, france, and italy agreed to divide czechoslovakia between germany, poland, and hungary. 1939 non aggression treaties as sign between germany, latvia, and estonia. august the 22nd 1939. moscow. the soviet commerce of foreign affairs, molotov, and german foreign minister, reuben trump, signed a non aggression pact. the pack made it impossible for nazi germany to form alliances with other states studies of it on going as to why him done thus. chamberlain on that day, should these refresh restitution, masons, or to them? he knew of action. england don't frankly,

that i've been mis entry did tuition think i'm from chrysler dodge fund. somebody was italian out on it. the united states continued its policy of appeasing imperial japan. the americans held on to the hope that japan would re focus his attention on the ussr. the soviet union did not want to be caught fighting a 2 front war war with japan and the east, and also a war with germany in the west. and they knew that the germans were going to attack sooner or later. also, when the british and french refused to form an alliance against germany was to study the polish government also refused. on january the 26th, 1934 in poland became the 1st european country to conclude a non aggression treaty with germany. the pill such k, hitler packed along with germany, poland plan to attack the ussr. poland must

not remain idle at this historic moment. the main goal is to weaken and crush russia, but on september the 1st 1939, poland was attacked by germany. ah, lucia europe for should get good. you good. last week a clinic dwaa is one. yeah. and you brought up of the night before. if we had law up, so it was before for shipped off with story home bullock or group, the co dash 3 and you would if you were to pull these corner your wife, you did it with the crushed polish government, please. to england. poland ceases to exist as a state or in german occupy poland. the most hideous form of terrorism prevails. more than 15000 intellectual leaders are shot 300 in one place

. at another, a group of drunken german officers are said to have shot 70 hostages. 130 thanks, 12 or 13 year old boys, a butchered and just 3 weeks later, stone incense, his army into poland, which is lost. sovereignty england, a bronze sympathize with the introduction of soviet truths it was vital for the soviet union to push the german army as far west as possible to buy time and gather forces from all corners of its colossal empire. the molotov revenue truck packed ended up being a crucial factor in a soviet and ultimately an allied victory. if i hadn't had that extra 2 or 300

kilometers to travel, they might rather well have occupied moscow. likewise, it's quite possible that, that it saved leningrad goes. the german armies were very close to lemon grad as well. hitler had already declared that he was going to kill all the inhabitants of leningrad and destroy the city. give it to finland. the finish leader marshall mannheim was a 100 percent in favor of that. meanwhile, honoring his promise to the american people not to get involved in the war, roosevelt passes the neutrality act. during this period, the one is clearly shown as hostility towards the soviet union. by the spring of 1940 all relations between the 2 countries of frozen the americans remain neutral, which rose without later regretted because he understood this was the time to stop the nazis. and the said, the fascist forces lay the 10th 1940

german troops invade france, and in just a month, hitler, anteaus, paris, most of the country is occupied and the french army is no more less i score say it was up by junior france, a boa. holden could be to less or fiance of my chela, but in cpr than that you nor your yet british capstone of con, in his work. don't to have historical sciences. alexi is i have a sense is the events of world war 2 here. let's go say you was a if the bush timor, blair mimi of lin, shy wolf, poor poor shane. you bruce puzzled. monsieur cross. not a mere pesky face. conyers nice show. so that if you have to order put your mouse door was more than pretty social storage in arch, we're sure blair thorough dealership ah, with these appeasement policy, entrance's prime minister chamberlain,

he's forced to attend to his resignation. on may the 10th 1940 the day germany invades france. winston churchill becomes the new british prime minister. i have nothing to offer, blind toil and sweat. he replaced chamberlain because as it is well known, chamberlain did not want to war with germany. churchill, it appears. was at a very different view. he never wavered from wanting and insisting on war or you're pursuing the war with germany. he didn't trust the germans. he didn't trust hitler. he didn't like hitler ah august the 13th 1940

a little which is mess. if it takes some good, you cities the next night 80 push it across, attack the key in which is a us operation blitz last almost 8 months many. but if he suffer catastrophic destruction. churchill, it is everywhere. a top piles of rubble left by and strikes in factories and hospitals. mm. it gave speeches.

works on military plans for his age. judging only 60 sakes, he himself would have rushed into the battle. mm. but england cannot withstand germany. le churchill asked roosevelt for help. roosevelt had no affection for churchill, he had no trust of the british. in fact, saw the british has penetrating much of the united states, state department intelligence agencies, academic institutions, all to more or less influence the united states and government and academia, to being much more, it stays things. more is war exchanged, buffalo wound will one destroy is 8 british military base is in the atlantic. we didn't receive anything from the u. s. that we didn't painful in $940.00 alone within pays the huge amount of money at the time. when

roosevelt down to the u. k. his ability to pay, he sends a cruise at the cape town where $50000000.00 pounds of british gold reserves are stored. in desperation, chance you'll rise to roosevelt in the midst of war, great britain, this close to bankruptcy. roosevelt seized no benefit in britain's defeat. after which the u. s. would run the risk of facing war to double could. doman liam leaves a dose, marketable displacement. pretty bad. sure. what offering you are in the chair clinic here? must lotion of congress share on bill? upper is not the criminal lawyer. still cargo, sasha, the guardian don't we more display a beggar to flunk to one put to show for bloom. little dice parker part up picking from our sh. however, why should you store 100 war by sham gruesome ah

ah, ah, [000:00:00;00] ah, churchill goal was to preserve the british empire. wanted an open world in which american, which american trade would have access everywhere and to market had to labor,

had 2 resources around the globe. so they had very different kinds of conflict. the interest with john chill wound stolen of an impending attack on the u. s. s huh. in the face of great danger, he seeks an alliance with russia. stall and doesn't reply. he doesn't trust churchill. with at 4 o'clock this morning, hitler attacked and invaded russia. suddenly, without declaration, the war without even algae made him. the german bomb rain down from the
