Here's How the Truman Doctrine Established the Cold War | History

this is so helpful for revision how does it only have 200k veiws

It was never about democracy. It was about supremacy of USA.

The day America turned from protector, to aggressor.

I don't get why the Soviets had to go through Turkish waters... it's literally quicker to go the other way? Does anyone know the reason behind this?

You have confused sovietism and communism. The Greek question was less about communism as it was about Stalin setting up shop in Greece if the (Yugoslav) backed communist rebels succeeded. The establishment in the US was less concerned about communism as an ideology. The sales pitch to the people had to be moral, and that is where communism came into play.

This very history involves all of us the Domino effects of these events are staggering

once again a mis label....as this individual seems to have been responding by an agressive action, by an avowed enemy...and may have rescued Western Europe, from the Russian agression....

They should ended with URSS when the Russia still had not nuclear bombs in 1946... Now we have crazy lunatics like Vladmir Putin thinking they are new Hitlers....

c'est super

I gotta watch this for class i hate it here

hello ames class A3

I have my GCSE History exam tomorrow. Just watching to remind myself. Good luck to everyone taking the exam tomorrow!

Why does not the Soviet Union control Georgia and Azerbaijan and Armenia and Why aren’t Austria and Spain shown as neutral

whoever is in seminole Hs good luck soldier(not really) whoever again whoever is here a 30 minute class ain't it or enough time

and ripples throughout 21 century as well..

Great

Proxy fights of influence end up costing a lot of revenue and increase the likelihood of empowering less than savory leaders in exchange for acquiescence of perceptions of leverage. The populations of various countries and regions tend to suffer in these regards. The justification of tyranny is never real.

The reality of health and energy/infrastructure... the needs of various regions and populations can be better addressed than fear based rhetoric every could. These changes are not always easy, but the alternative is really not very appealing. The habits of dysfunction are bizarrely comforting, but they do not make them ok nor effective. The better work, while minimizing usurpations can ease some of the rhetoric without ridding the obvious needs of decent governance. Human rights is a baseline requirement for this work... and it is good work.

It's time to reestablish the Truman Doctrine!

I think the US should contain Russians in the United States to ensure Americans are not being corrupted. The influence that threats have lead to support for one side or another. It is ridiculous to function while secretly supporting murder. You cannot rise in society if you stand over competition until they submit. That is what happens. The poor die so you can seem greater.

It's funny how Gary Oldman has now played both Winston Churchill and Harry Truman. Wonder if there's a Stalin biopic being made soon...

Two seconds into the video i stopped it and did not finish it, guess why.

Britain got a major part of the Marshall Plan Aid.
Germany made better use of their portion!

like why tf am I getting an project to do right after December break and bro doesn't allow us to do the work in class now im up late doing ts RAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Hey Evan, if you are watching this, Harry Truman is so funny

you did forget the britisch militaire presents and the brutal crackdown of communist demonstrations, and the fact that stalin did not support a communist take over in greece.

who else being forced to watch this for school 💀

My history teacher is lazy

i think it’s a me problem that i did not understand a single thing

Democracy and Communism are not mutually exclusive. Capitalism actually represses true democracy from occurring because of lobbying and corporate interests becoming that of the state.

Exactly he started it all

What gave rise to this direction was Truman's determination from his Jehovah Witness family members to control the world and turn everybody into Jesus worshipers that was his goal to become a missionary country for Jesus, sadly. He started turning us into the zionists Christian missionaries

Just watching this because it's interesting 🤷‍♂️

Harry Truman was a great president and an inspiration for many of Americans.

Biden is our Truman today

america losers

rather died than red ?

rather sold than communist ...

Beware of the double-cross hand shake

You just have to love history, without the knowledge of history you can't help the future.
