there's not a pronounced vision of the future in trump as there is in hitler.le to have this fruitful conversation unless we make the comparison, unless we look at the past — to see what's similar and what's different. if we dismiss this because we're afraid of taboos, then we become boring. yeah, well, i don't want us to be boring and i hope we won't be, but maybe it's more fruitful to draw in other comparisons, which perhaps make america's moment today seem less dangerous, less sort of completely existential than you might contend that it is. for example, there are serious historians who've suggested that donald trump should be compared more to recent historical figures, like ferdinand marcos in the philippines and silvio berlusconi in italy, than they should be to, you know, the totalitarians of the past. and, in a sense, they're focusing then on his vanity, his narcissism, his short—term, non—strategic approach to politics. would you accept that there's some truth in that? absolutely. i mean, and those politicians have things in common with one another, and

hitler's intentions and part of what he was saying it. is it fair to say and would you agree? was that even though they had been obviously on opposite sides of the war that hitler the stalin had some of the same traits of hitler namely he was a tyrant there was this idea of tyranny italitarianism that that churchill was trying to to define as the real enemy whether it was a a tyranny or totalitarianism of the left or of the right? exactly, right. he has a phrase war and tyranny in the in the speech and and essentially the speeches about how you avoid war and defeat tyranny at the same time but to do that you have to be allied over certain values and you have to demonstrate and and this is the power of the speech and the effect of the speech you have to be willing to demonstrate your willingness to to fight and that's what stalin reacted to was. was that part he knew this was aimed at him so he he organizes install an organizes a an interview with propped in which he attacks the speech and attacks churchill and says churchill is like hitle

mildred was decapitated on hitler's order as an american woman. those kinds of inaccuracies have happened over the decades. it's also important to understand that most history downplays marginalized for women participation. the resistance group that some of the may be familiar with as the leader. his sister is not typically referred to as a leader. she is his sister or a participant. both founders. historians writing about mildred which, again, a bunch of different names. calling at the red orchestra. basically referring to to her as -- wife. many other historians who stated that women played a prominent role in the red orchestra. notably mildred and then said nothing more. we don't know any more information. that is another reason why i felt like it was important for me to write this book. the information has not gotten out to leaders as much as it should. there have been things published about her. books that have been published about the red orchestra. i have so much more information and research that i have done and going to find records and e

who was the head of hitler's youth movement in germany. and we actually have some audio here that we'd like to play for you from that case that you talked about of funshirak the head of the hitler youth where he is prosecuting someone who indoctrinated the use of nazi germany. let's have a listen. the training of german youth runs through the nazi conspiracy. as an important central threat it is one of the manifestations of nazism. just shocked the entire civilized world. the principal responsibility for the planning and execution other the nazi youth policy falls upon this defendant i wish to take merely one sentence. from his own affidavit paragraph 5 document number 33.02 pf so that there can be no doubt before this tribunal or before the world indeed. this defendant's own feelings of responsibility. quote i feel myself responsible. for the policy of the youth movement. in the party and later within the right. you know, what's so interesting here, and this is partially speculation, but i think it's possible that drexels own formative ex

and the soviet union actually occupied far more of eastern europe than hitler did up until hitler going into poland and war being declared. so i guess i take a little -- i guess i would have to disagree that churchill is showing this strong anti-appeasement stand in 1945. thank you. >> it's clear, however, churchill knew -- we talked a little about this earlier, that churchill knew of stalin's track record, you know, and he knew that stalin ultimately was not someone he wanted to be friendly with. he had to be so during world war ii, and it was a good thing in the end for the allies. however, you know, the human rights atrocities, the philosophical differences was one that churchill did not, in fact, want to participate in. i think he did see it as a threat and doing nothing, as he says quite clearly in the iron curtain speech, was not an option. so i think churchill was quite staunch in his belief on that front. >> one of our social media followers wants to know if you know whether churchill blamed the soviet union's influence for his election defeat. >> i don't know if it's anecdotal
