Around the last half hour when he started talking about Egypt, Gaza, and Israel, I had to double check that this video was 10 years ago. Nothing started on 10/7.

Stunning. EVERY man, woman and child in the world should be taught History as detailed and informed as this lecture by Ry Casagranda. By understanding where we have come from, we have a far better chance of moving forward with greater success in achieving peace and well being for successive generations to come.

It is crazy how poorly the “Department of Defense” segment aged.

It should be mandatory for every grade school / home schooled teens in the US to have lectures like this on these extremely important parts of history.

The main objective of the US policy in the Middle East is to separate the Arabs completely. Like the Saudi vs Iran, Shiite Muslim vs sunny Muslim and etc. The last thing that the US and its allied want to see is a united arabs.
