He's really entertaining, but his stuff especially on modern military history is full of errors. His videos are nonetheless interesting.

Balding and manchildlike. What's not to love??

>(possibly a stick used for sexual stimulation to reach mental states)

actually, the stick/broom in europe was most likely used to vaginally apply an ointment with psychoactive ingredients. It is absorbed fast and efficient and sends the consumer "go flying"

Wouldn’t surprise me that they were doing something similar in a early tantra cult.

>>3162392
That was what I was aiming at, forgot about the psychodelic stuff, makes even more sense.

Some practices by yogis even today use the consumption of cannabis and othet hallucinogenous stuff to reach "deeper states". Probably also to power up the visualizations

>>3162324

why is it presumed to be pre-ie? Also, hindu tantr doesn't interpret sexual practices as metaphors, or magic as only a way to liberation

I think what you meant to title this thread was "ITT: autistic opinions"

Mutually assured destruction would've killed everybody, you dumb shit. Go to fucking school before you post here.

Arabs a shit. A shit.

>>3182366
Arabs had inferior training, stupid generals. they had the perfect chance to destroy the jews and convert them to islam but they failed.

>preemptive strike
>better trained
>better equipped
>better planning
And if the Arabs are to be believed
>Arabs weren't actually ready or willing to fight as it was just a show of force

But the most important factor is water. The Israelis gave their troops ample supply of water whilst the Arabs did not witch translated into a much more effective fighting force.

oil

>>3182220
This. The oilfields at Baku, specifically.

Fun fact: The allies were preparing to bomb those oilfields, but had to abandon this plan when Hitler invaded France.

>The defenses up around Moscow are too tough to easily overcome, maybe even to overcome at all.
>We would like to chew up the Soviet armies, and that would be easier where they're thinner and where the terrain is less woody.
>Also, we're seriously short on oil, especially given how much it costs to transport stuff from Romania (where we do most of our drilling and refining) to the front.
>We need a new source.
>Well, we're not *that* far from the Caucasus, and taking that would both solve our own oil problems, and severely fuck up the Soviets if we can get to Baku and seize it.
>Of course, we're going to have to do something about the threatened counterattack across the Volga, so we'll need to hamper them, shorten our lines as much as possible.

That was the general idea, in any event.

Um, sweetie..

That quotation is philosophy itself.

Isn't it funny that the Mesoamerican civilization was started by Africans?

For example one of the Olmec heads is looks to me like an African and therefore is.

Isn't it funny that the Ancient Egyptians were actually black Africans?

For example one of the pharaohs looks kind of like an African if we take a picture with certain shading.

Well, there is the occasional kidnapping, mostly from Japan and South Korea. So maybe a few. But those are mostly targeted at Japs.

Just saying, if I was a religious invader in 900AD, or whatever, and I encountered blacks for the first time, I would probably not consider them to be in the image of God. I always wonder how those dudes reacted to them at the time.

>>3181689

According to Democrats the ancients had no reaction to seeing black people. They viewed black skin as just another random physical trait like eye color. They were supposedly more concerned with "culture" than physical traits. Yeah. People actually believe that.

Nah, Egyptian and Greek missionaries definitely considered subsaharan Nubians and Ethiopians to be fully human and converted them. And the Portuguese did too.

There were minor fortifications further north, but building the Maginot across the Belgium border would have been seen as just abandoning Belgium for one thing, and quite rightly so- and building it inside of Belgium would essentially just confirm to the Nazis that you were expecting/wanted a scrap.

One major purpose for the Maginot besides was simply just to protect Alsace Lorraine, which despite being on the border contained much of France's heavy industry and resources.

>>3181470
Belgium didnt allow France to continue the line on their shared border

Letting the Anchluss happen. It would've probably have been better if Italy declared war on Germany over Austria at that point in history. There's a good chance other countries like France and Poland would've joined in against Germany and the Italian military isn't as meager compared to the Wehrmacht at this point.

Hi Charlie. Did you eat your vegetables today
