[inaudible]. okay, so the british are looking down on the colonists who are for a number of reasons and that was the tactics and for a lack of formal military training and some of it has to do with how they dressed. we know there's a lot of resistance and there's a large of who holds the higher ranks in a colonial officer, does it outbreak a british officer and as you recall the british officers are lower ranked #the out ranked any colonial officer this infuriated the young

army personnel. he was talking about armed men. i mean, cannot be hours. the good i'm, i was a really good on those clip under my product or being about them. are you saying i don't support anybody? because in this country, almost everybody is politicized. he's saying that there were armed men from the she or i'm a party, they were opening fire, but the minute i think a sure i'm asking him if the other guy, because a new saying on the other side on the right, people were grilling fish, shook entrepreneur, here, it's very hard for me to ask such a question to a, to a lebanese who are mostly everybody belongs to or support a certain political parties. so it's very, we have to be careful because it's hard to say clearly, we don't know what happened. we are waiting for official statements from both sides, but what i can tell you is that that is a frontline, a very known frontline, every time there's a political crisis in this country, every time there's about in via parts of violence, it happens there. a

and the seven days battles, they will drive the union army away from richmond take the army back into northern virginia and they invade maryland and solidify his reputation in virginia command and so when johnston is finally able to take the field again as recovered, what do we do with him rated and things are falling apart for the confederacy elsewhere so johnston is going to be sent to the last. and in the fall of 1862, is when be sent to the western theater and commanded best department, tremendous amount of territory and a big says from the appellations of the mississippi river and is responsible for the army of tennessee which is in tennessee, and of the department of mississippi and alabama which includes that offenders entered general - as a johnston new command and he takes office headquarters and chattanooga about any's going to be coordinating the efforts of those two armies and all the other military units in this vast department and is got a lot of challenges. that's right. [laughter] but seriously, he friday coordinate with these two armies with our defining union forces

june 27, pope will soon clement the army of virginia. lincoln has chosen pope for political purposes, not for his battlefield abilities. lincoln is not at this time ready to relieve general mcclellan. his other factors are going into this decision, secretary chase and edwin stanton have chosen pope because he will fight a hard relentless contest unsparing of southern populace especially in virginia. chase argues to lincoln and stanton about bringing him east and giving command primarily on the ground of policy and doing so with patronage. stanton told objective for pope is to humiliate mcclellan. imagine them placed in a situation you told your commanding officers this is not the command for me, it will not be successful. being placed in this position with sub context and minds and now you are expected to be successful on it. pope premieres again and says i just don't want this position, send me back west but the question comes in at this moment for historical debate, who else would be the right fit at this moment? can administration nee

army is evacuating. now of course famously they figured out what was going on and he was never able to find beauregard in the chaos of that night. april 7 comic con 62 the second day of shiloh the hardest day of beauregard's life at least militarily he starts watching a series of attacks that drive them into the river and he realizes maybe it's only part of the army but by noon he's confirmed that he has three divisions coming from grant army. around this time the beauregard starts ago wagons up to the rear and counterattacks meant to stem the tides. personally the same creoles he observed within 1861 grabbing their flag and calling out to them and leading to an attack. these attacks managed to slow down the union as they are dancing in the federal army escapes from shiloh. after that beauregard does a pretty good job but ultimately they lost and then he makes the second biggest mistake of his career. beauregard is very bad. i'm shocked that he stayed as long as he did. he forgets to ask davis if he can

divide his army into two parts. basically he has a mountain that separates the two halves of his army, you should know even if you aren't civil war or military historian without instant communication it is impossible to coordinate two separate forces with the memes at which they had a hand in that time. but this is what van dorn is going to do, one half of his army is under mccullough a long story short they are going to meet and an army will focus solely on mccaul's half of the confederate army near the town of lee's town arkansas he has 18000 in the wilson's creek they marched out mccaul promptly gets killed his second-in-command james mcintosh gets killed shortly thereafter and everything goes to pieces after that is not concise enough right there? >> the remaining confederate tried to stand them off which included the indians under albert pike they eventually are checked by fresh union reinforcement even though the seesaw battle and jefferson davis, c davis arrives with his division and turns the tide for the un

in the british army.and if you are a slave, and mount vernon british army become spy, you can escape and many of them did they try to pretty you didn't have to read the declaration of independence to note that you wanted to be free and on the other hand, there is also african-americans were fighting for the cause and washington's man servant billy the most famous african-american and around at the time because he's washington's man servant and everybody gets to know him. slavery becomes crucial issues certainly by the time the constitutional convention but i believe and this is where part company with 81690 and the 76 people is that the immersion revolution was part of the basis of the principles that were incompatible with slavery and that the prominent american leaders washington, madison jefferson, they all said that that is a contradiction and the great late historian of slavery, coined a phrase called the parish abilities revolutionary time. ... ... >> i see the revolution as a war as the end of slav

useless, the army still plays an important role. over the last 10, 15 years, since syrians were pushed out of lebanon by popular rebellion, they still have influences but do not run the country like they used to, the political system has deteriorated and been run by an oligarchy of leaders. corruption in all the public services. that is why we have this terrible situation, the central bank was in cahoots with this process. since the civil war, it has played a bigger role internally. in recent years they've come out and been deployed whenever there was sectarian fighting. they have been doing this more a more like they did yesterday. they separated the two fighting groups, it gives the citizens a sense that somebody is going to try to work for the well-being of the country and not allow the country to slip back into sectarian warfare. i think we have to notice the army has done a better job over the years, but has laments about how far it can go. it has a balance of sectarian leaders within it. it was born for the fracture along sect

as you can see, this is not calming down the army. you can have the presence of the lebanese army, unable to stop this, we understand that they tried to read some buildings to arrest the sniper, the interior minister holding a meeting with heads of different security agencies. it's not clear how this will be contained because it really is one of the most serious bouts of violence in recent years. and lebanon has had a turbulent pass. this is a decades old frontline and we've seen confrontations over the years throughout the years, but nothing like that. and like i mentioned the investigation into the bay report exclusion that massive explosion last year in august that the short neighborhood investigations as and who was responsible for that, that really cause the tension industry escalation, really dangerous escalation. zayna don't ask us to take a breath for another. let's just listen. i'm taking the c food stamp call from you and on a brief pause in the horrific sounds of gunfire. who knows how long it will last, a very disturbing s

the army is out in force, but it's, it's, it's not easy. it's not going to be easy to contain the situation. if you can see the roads are empty, people are hiding in their homes. of children were stuck at schools, hiding and corridors. parents rushing to take them home, people leaving their work, not knowing what, what is happening. this city is on the edge. a lebanon is used to bouts of violence like this. but it comes really at a very critical time. the economy has all but collapsed. people continue to struggle you what we understand is up to 2 people are believed to have been killed. we're getting some reports that there could be a 3rd person who died, a number of injuries. the ambulances have been moving into the area. you can still hear the sound of gunfire just really down the street when i say this is and i'm just going to hear the intensity this, this issue of the investigation into the report explosion. and the role of the church really has height and tensions in this country and divided this country even further already. this is a

now we set up our army.s far as the chain of command is concerned, this is ultra important, follow the chain of command. all right. at the very top is the continental congress. they are supreme, the ones we answer to. it would be nice if they would supply us but we will work on that. going to advantages and disadvantages congress doesn't know what they are doing. they signed the declaration of independence but as far as their powers are concerned, extremely limited. we have our list, the second continental congress, print money but not raise taxes. this is where we start with the military complex. military answers to the government is the way it works. this is where it starts. the low hand is going to be your commanding general. who is that? george. who deserves his own holiday. awesome in so many ways. george gets the job in june of 75 but because he wears uniform of a meeting of the congress, looks the part he doesn't have the most stellar career as far as the military is concerned but he does have experie

the army office of the sobering council. it seems that there was no room for compromise. it seems that the officers freed this whole thing of investigating the crime. and they didn't want to go with this man getting days which is going to week in that position in politics. basically saying the military establishment is trying to prevent any prosecution in the near future, which was the power sharing with the civilians about the atrocities committed and particularly those that were committed during the absolute for the after 2019 join us. is it fair to say that all the power sharing deals and all the architecture that was a started post april 2019 out of now scrapped? are now that part of the past. i don't think that necessarily has to be the case and you know, it's, it's all up until now there had been considerable effort from, from all sides in many ways to, to somehow stay within the norms of the constitutional declaration. and also the agreement even though, but there was very little in the way of, of implementation. so,

— still need an army? yes, and of course, still need an army?d an army? yes, and of - course, some of the challenges we're having at the moment would explain why we need a force of national resilience. but the bottom line is that we've already learned a lot of lessons from the afghan campaign, and we know very well that if you are going to get involved in these sorts of environments again, you need to have the basic insight to have an effect. if you go in there without that, you are going to fail. we've already begun to get the army in particular to be reconfigured to be better able to be engaged with indigenous forces in areas that potentially have become failed states in order to help build the capacity of those local forces to take the problems on their selves. is it also a problem... you referred to your generations as the post—9/ii generation. is it possible that public opinion here and the us will say after afghanistan, after syria, no thank you, we don't want any more of that. , r, no thank you, we don't want any more of that. , , _ no th

that he is just using the name of the army. it was basically that the r f, the rapid or says that secured the area that we have sensitive and and, and made an attempt to secure other facilities of critical importance to the government . it is basically the r s f that has held both on succeed in his this could be done. so should, should, that could fill in an or in kevin pressure. i think that are going to be some baby serious the regions within the army. which boring date is going to be some very bloody confrontation between the army and delicious that's already already encountered. so god forbid that this, this could be tough in there is going to be a confrontation between the army, which we expect much subside. ok, and the militia that came from abroad journal, it seems that the army and the civilians out on a collision course by the question is, what kind of leverage does the civilian establishment hobbins so that in the near future to reverse the decisions made by the bible by the humble hon. well, very few, you know, obvio

now let's set up our army. all right. as far as chain of command is concerned and this is all important and no matter what. always follow the military command. don't jump that. that's just rule of thumb there. all right. at the very top it's going to be the continental congress. they are supreme. they are the ones we answer to. it would be nice if they would supply us but, you know, we will work on that, so but going back to advantages and disadvantages, congress doesn't really know what they are doing. they signed the declaration of independ, but as far as their powers are concerned extremely limited, okay. we had our list of what the second continental congress can do, put money but not raise taxes. yeah, that can be a real problem here but this is where we start with the whole civil military complex, all right. military to the government this is where it start. just below him it's going to be your commanding general. and who is that? george. yes. who deserves his own holiday can i just say because the man is awesome in

i've got to retire from the army to get out of the army. bush when he became president, he did something unusual. it was about two days after his election. we had offices right next to each other separated by a bathroom, and he called me in. he said, i want to offer you a couple of jobs, and he offered me three jobs in the highest positions of the government. i said, thank you, let me talk to my wife about it. i didn't want any of the jobs. i wanted to go back to the army. i went and spoke to the chief of staff of the army and said, do you have anything for me if i come back? he said, you know we've got a place for you. i said, mr. president, the army wants me back. thank you very much. i'm going to go back to the army. reagan said, does that include four stars? i said, yes, mr. president. i'm going to get four stars. he said, that's good. i got my four stars, took command of a million soldiers, and that lasted maybe four months. i got a call that said we want you to see the new secretary of defense. that was cheney, and he said the preside

i've got to retire from the army to get out of the army. that is what i want to do. bush, when he became president, he did something that was rather unusual. about two days after his election, we had offices right next to each other. he called me in. i said why is he calling me? he said i want to offer you a couple of jobs. he offered me three jobs out of the highest positions in the government. i said let me go home and talk to my wife about it. i barely spoke to her about it because i did not want any of the jobs. i wanted to go back to the army. i went to his talk to these chief of staff of the army. i sit is there a place for me if i come back -- i said is there a place for me if i come back? he said yes. i said the army does want me back, thank you but i have got to go back to the army. he looked over and said, does that include four stars? i said yes i will get four star. i got my four star, he took command of one million soldiers -- i took command of one million soldiers. that lasted maybe four months. i got a call that said we want you to come see the new sec

he thought the army was a good career. he was surprised that i stayed and profited from it, but he thought it was a good thing to do for three years. it almost went horribly wrong when you were kicked out of winchester college cadets. i wasn't terribly successful, i was drawn to the golf course. i got caught out, so i reverted to private soldier. because you went to play golf? absent without leave, they weren't impressed. the theory was that you would join the army, leave and do what? i think my father thought accountancy. i wasn't terribly successful, i was drawn to the golf course. i got caught out, so i reverted to private soldier. because you went to play golf? absent without leave, they weren't impressed. the theory was that you would join the army, leave and do what? i think my father thought accountancy. and he had a good mate, and the answer was i was going to work for smith and williamson. three years in, i was enjoying it, i wrote to him and said i'm going to stay. what kept you in? people, first and foremost. re

he didn't, the army cannot venture inside the neighborhood. a lot of people are unable to reach their home. ambulances are parked here, close to the round about waiting to be able to enter. if it's a very dangerous situation, as you know, type of fire, you just don't see where it is coming from. and it's believe that some of those, some of the casualties were killed because, because of sniper sniper fire. so right now what we understand a military source, yes, the military source is saying it's for, for including a woman who died from a bullet wound in her house. so this is a military source thing for, that's a lot of sniper fire. we're just going to move back a bit of a medical sources say the devil could be up to 6. so we're just going to have to wait for, for more con, the army is telling us that is not safe here. and we need to move back. ok, so this is was anna make. so you get to say, you don't want you to be on the way you're on say okay, the army, they told us to move back into the blood, things on the floor. civilian civilians usually

the british army in the french army were largely in the north it to the north of care is. i have a map right here that i can pull up. but strategically, it may no sense to go straight to paris. which is also one of the reasons the americans said they were going to liberate paris at the end of the war. if you go into a big city like paris, you don't just assume command of the city, you have to feed the people and make sure they have heating oil, you have to make sure the city runs smoothly. for an army on the move, that's a drain on your resources. you don't want to do that until the rest of the country is under control. then you pivot towards paris. it became an open city in the march -- the nazis marched right in. >> dunkirk occurred at this point. what did dunkirk mean strategically and how has it become -- what has become as a metaphor throughout history? >> dunkirk is one of the great retreats. in effect, the british forces are pinned down on the sands of dunkirk which they could look across the water and see great britain right there. and along with the british troops

the red army defeated the quinton army in just 10 days. on august the 19th its commander in chief auto yamato complied with the soviet high commands ultimatum on immediate and unconditional surrender. he handed his sword to a soviet officer and other generals followed suit. aah! after the start of the red armies, military operation, the unit $731.10 were completely liquidated. as per my orders, the soviet army, swift advanced, deprived us of the possibility of employing a biological weapon against the u. s. as or, or other countries tribunal transcript commander in chief of the japanese quantum abbey yamato auto zulu general e. she was in a hurry. the red army was advancing too quickly and he didn't want to be captured by russians. prisoners were killed and their bodies destroyed. personnel and valuables were relocated. anything they had to leave behind was burned. most of the facilities were blown up. on august the 19th, 1945, the 1st soviet troops entered the city of hobbin. mm . ah, the 731 camp had already been blown up and all the mos

they annihilated the french army.hat led to that thing where britain stood alone against the nazi forces. it seemed as if the u.s. was not in a position to step in and help. it was a very precarious time. people had seen the were coming. we had a time called the phony war in 1939, but nobody really thought that this was ever going to happen, that paris would succumb to the nazis. it was unthinkable when it finally happened because the city of life was supposed to be this bastion of enlightenment and free thinking. people in an open society. when the nazis had gone into poland and warsaw, there were mass executions. it was terrible. they executed liberals, they executed freethinkers, and everybody was scared as they came toward paris. host: how many years are we talking about in total? mr. dugard: 1944. 77 this year. [captions copyright national cable satellite corp. 2021] host: the actual occupation was about four and a half years altogether. mr. dugard: for years and three months, give or take. host: when reading you

look what is the army chief trying to say here? we'd be composed and scrutinize the speech of mister con, especially if we look at articles 11121516. when he 471172, where eliminated from the new constitution or document the he's, he said he is ready to abide with. there are 2 categories here that are 3 article that has to do with seem issuing decrease. and there is the other category which has to do with he has done away with the article that had to do with dismantling of. busy the flemish states and combating of corruption and the other beginning had to do with he had done away with the obstacle that dealt with investigating the crime. and at which point, we ordered a member about $1800.00. that's when attacked, use it using the national diesel, went on and we don't know, there are some that are missing. so if, if you look at him removing those 2 arctic, it's thought those 2 important arctic is it seems that the army was pushed to the corner since there was no discourse between the civilians and the army office of the sovereign c

he was in the army. he did half his life and the army, and then he worked in insurance.thought the army was a good career. i think he was surprised that i stayed and profited, but he thought it was a good thing to do for three years. it almost went horribly wrong when you were kicked out of winchester college and the cadets. i wasn't terribly successful. i was drawn to the golf course. not wearing my uniform on a wednesday afternoon. i got called out. i reverted to private soldier. because you went to play golf! absent without leave. the theory was that you would join the army, leave and do what? i think my father thought accountancy. and he had a good mate, and the answer was i was going to work for smith and williamson. three years in, i rang a friend. what kept you in? why the love of it? people, first and foremost. responsibility, interesting places and tasks, tours in cyprus and the opportunity to do more things like that. you look back to those of you who've served in the troubles. huge responsibility at a young age. was that a traumatic thing to live through? yes

the red army defeated the cons on the army in just 10 days.

i think there will be some divisions within the army. at which point there will be some very bloody confrontation between the army and the opposition. if this fails, there will be a confrontation that feels very much subsided. >> it seems the army and the civilians ask if the civilian establishment -- what power the civilians have. >> very few. people have come out very speedily onto the streets to express their opposition and the military's unilateral takeover of power. this all began with collective action. it is all about delivering the prehistoric removal of al bashir. those tactics have worked before. they compounded the military in many ways. along with collective action and a return to the proven structures, there is also in need for real championing of the messaging and causes that the people on the streets are going to want to see. they also have quite clear leadership throughout the revolution. they may pursue this approach again. >> it was not a secret that the military takeover was just going to be a matter of time. you look
