Thanks to /u/wikkoe and /u/Ace4929 for the title.

04:25- I don't own a Mac so I'll turn it over to you guys. Is his keyboard connected to his computer? Is his mouse connected to his computer.

06:14- Oh the old flying holocaust, not that there was a holocaust.

06:46- What do they mean by secret? Secret to who?

06:52- Speaking of him he had a fantastic rebuttal to claims like this.

The Nazis entered this war under the rather childish delusion that they were going to bomb everybody else, and nobody was going to bomb them.

At Rotterdam, London, Warsaw, and half a hundred other places, they put that rather naive theory into operation.

They sowed the wind, and now, they are going to reap the whirlwind.

Another quote I want to share that eerily relates to this are excerpts from General Sherman during the US Civil War.

Now, I know the vindictive nature of our enemy, that we may have many years of military operations from this quarter; and, therefore, deem it wise and prudent to prepare in time.

The use of Atlanta for warlike purposes is inconsistent with its character as a home for families. There will be no manufactures, commerce, or agriculture here, for the maintenance of families, and sooner or later want will compel the inhabitants to go.

You might as well appeal against the thunder-storm as against these terrible hardships of war. They are inevitable, and the only way the people of Atlanta can hope once more to live in peace and quiet at home, is to stop the war, which can only be done by admitting that it began in error and is perpetuated in pride.

You are rushing into war with one of the most powerful, ingeniously mechanical, and determined people on Earth — right at your doors. You are bound to fail. Only in your spirit and determination are you prepared for war. In all else you are totally unprepared, with a bad cause to start with.

At first you will make headway, but as your limited resources begin to fail, shut out from the markets of Europe as you will be, your cause will begin to wane. If your people will but stop and think, they must see in the end that you will surely fail."

Sherman is one of my favorite US civil War generals. (Thanks to r/ColorizedHistory)

07:05- What is up with that voice? Sounds like a British Saturday morning cartoon villain.

07:41- Literally the first sentence of Wikipedia.

The Allied bombing of Hamburg during World War II included numerous strategic bombing missions and diversion/nuisance raids.

As a large port and industrial centre, Hamburg's shipyards, U-boat pens, and the Hamburg-Harburg area oil refineries were attacked throughout the war.

10:41- That reminds me of something.

During the German invasion of Poland, the Luftwaffe engaged in massive air raids against Polish cities, bombing civilian infrastructure such as hospitals and targeting fleeing refugees. Notably, the Luftwaffe bombed Warsaw, Wieluń, and Frampol.

It is believed that the bombing of Frampol was an experiment as it had no targetable industry and no military units were stationed there.

On 7 September 318 bombers from the whole KG 53 supported by eight other Kampfgruppen, flew almost continuous sorties against London, the dock area which was already in flames from earlier daylight attacks.

The attack of 7 September 1940 did not entirely step over the line into a clear terror bombing effort since its primary target was the London docks, but there was clearly an assumed hope of terrorizing the London population.

Hitler himself hoped that the bombing of London would terrorize the population into submission. He stated that "If eight million [Londoners] go mad, it might very well turn into a catastrophe!".

14:11- Ah yes the forgotten Holocaust, not that the Holocaust was real mind you.

14:36- I guess its that time again.

19:07- Nice try, but no dice.

21:09- Hey why doesn't anyone ever mention Guernica? We can't be the only ones who remember Guernica right?

See you next time.
