Events Leading to WWII List, Italian Colonialism in Africa & Current Events Libya
Gol (gol = river) Noticed the list of events leading to WWII while I was reading about the Russians fighting off the Japanese invaders of Soviet Russian/Mongolian territory.

Grigori Shtern (shot/executed 1941, left) and Georgy Zhukov (right).
The push for intervention comes after an alleged ISIS execution of 21 Egyptian Coptic Christians in Libya, which is quite a convenient event for the Western backed Tobruk government (yes, there's two Libya governments: Tripoli (not recognised by West) and Tobruk), and convenient for those in the West that seek to intervene in the region. Having a hard time believing this event is genuine (rather than staged). On the other hand, maybe it is genuine. I don't know. It's just weird that it plays into the hands of those who seek Western military intervention. The video is said to have come out of the Al Hayat Media Center (HMC), which is supposed to be Islamic State controlled.

VIDEO Series - Berlin 1900 - 1945

Amazing watching these videos, particularly the turn of the century (1900) video, which is first in the set. It's captured not only on film, but also in the splendour of the streets; in beautiful parks; in cafes; by the seaside; in the shop signs; in shop windows; in architecture; in clothing; in hair arrangements; in rituals; and in a host of artefacts of progress and civilisation. The film footage captures ordinary life on cusp of great and devastating change, in the heart of Europe. Watching this amazing and moving footage is also like watching a nightmare or a horror movie unfold, unable to call out in warning. Even though I know that life is finite, I am still amazed by how short life is, how eternal death is, and how small and unimportant we are. Overall existence is just one long stream of indifferent life and indifferent death, or that's how it seems to me. |
