Excellent lecture. Fills in many gaps used by others to mislead actual state of affairs.

THE LONG ROAD TO WAR (2018) is, by far, the best documentary on this subject!

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ubDPVLZ2iE&t=939">15:39</a> Quote: '...because it meant that policies in Britain were going to be scrutinized by Parliament much more closely than they would be in the Continal countries and in particular it was much more difficult for Britain to adopt a secretive course in foreign policy or to conceal military plans from Parliament for very long.' <br> <br>But, but, but conceiling military plans for war in Belgium and giving secret promises of aiding France was exactly what Lord Grey et al. did!🙄

The Battle of the Boyne was 1690, not 1689.

whats all this about revolvers, it was a 1910 FN .380 automatic pistol that did the deed

An outstanding exposition of the tragically unique concatenation of circumstances that caused a World War, and more. Please carry on removing the brainwashed scales from our eyes because: "There's none so blind that cannot see.' Thank you.

I wonder, was there a lecture on the Second World War? I've found lecture on events leading up to the war and Post-War Settlement, but no lecture on the Second World War. How come?
