Thank you for the WAH video team. Whether Allied or Axis, bombing raids were a terrible suffering and ordeal for the civilians who had to endure it. Never forget.

I'm Jewish. Szmul's final testament has left me in shock. I won't try attempt to comment on it. I only know few and small words, but I will observe that it's eloquent. Thank you so much for sharing his words with the world. Now, more than ever Sparticus is the time for your work and that of the Time Ghost Army to be broadcast as widely as possible. ~ The clock behind you seems to be stopped at 23:58 and I wonder if that's a message. I'm very scared for this world and me.

First let me say that this series is amazing. I have to say though that the timeghost army ad at the beginning feels not really appropriate to me. It is for a good cause, but it still feels wrong to ask for money while these kinds of pictures are playing. Maybe it's just me, but I still just wanted to provide this feedback to you. As I said I think this series is impressive and powerful! ... And while reading this I still feel it sounds unfairly negative to you for the 5 seconds of video. So please take this as nothing more than my gut reaction when watching. I am aware of the need to monetize somehow.

I can't describe in words how profoundly that mans letter and actions profoundly affected me. Never forget!

Heaviest air raid in human history SO FAR.

It might be a milestone, but to give the air raid (276 deaths) top billing in the same period as the Japanese were merrily murdering 30,000 Chinese comes across as a bit strange. I know the purpose of the show is to remember all the facets of awful things done, and every death is tragic, but it comes across oddly.

What departing words. What grief. I'm glad his son was able to reclaim his ashes and buried with honor.

We do not choose the title based solely on what the “worst event” or even the most interesting one. We choose the titles based on what we believe will work best with YouTube’s algorithm. Sadly we have no choice but to do that, lest the videos drown in the massive onslaught of recommendations on YouTube. The difference of the right and wrong title can mean a difference of tens of thousands of views, even hundreds of thousands if we hit the bullseye. That’s not important because it strokes our egos, or increases income (neither will receive a big dent from some views back or forth). It’s essential for us to reach people with our content, to fulfill the mission that you have given us: increase the knowledge about our past to as many as we can, so that we can help people with tools to better understand how to build a better future.

Mount Carmel Cememtery is the largest part of a vast cemetery complex in Ridgewood, Queens, New York City. It is a Catholic Cemetery. It should be possible to locate Szmul's remains there. and visit the grave> I will check.

It’s so sad hearing that man’s last words. But seriously expecting people to do more? Like what? They say the same thing in ww2 in colour “the allies knew and did nothing” well someone tell me what they should have done! Because I see no action taking place that changes history. If the French and British deploy in Poland in 1939 all that happens is they get crushed in Poland and suddenly there’s no dunkirk just crushed armies that mean the commonwealth can’t continue the fight and if that happens I see no Jews or Slavs or any “inferior people” in the nazi eyes surviving. So what should they have done?

Powell to the people

Follow their own rules and demilitiarize Germany when they violated the treaty of Versailles by marching into saarland in 1934.
