The War Goals to End WW2 in 1945 – a WW2 Special
While World War Two looks like it is about to end, the belligerent powers have vastly different goals for that end. Differences that may or may not prolong the war, will decide the survival of tens of millions of people, and the future fate of all of Humanity.

This episode covers the goals of the belligerents in February 1945. Goals that on the Allied side will be revised at the Yalta Conference, where Churchill, Roosevelt, and Stalin take decisions that continue to decide the fate of Humanity to this day in 2024. In a few days we will come out with a video covering the deliberations, and decisions at the Yalta Conference. It is the TimeGhost Army that enables us to do these deep dives into our common history.

This "naughty document" is perhaps one of the stupidest things Churchill ever did. How do you exercise "10%" of control in a nation that is already 100% occupied by another party? FDR was frankly a champion of Soviet Imperialism and a staunch opponent of British and French imperialism. And it is debatable as to whether FDR was in full possession of his faculties by this point. Very likely his foreign policy was run by Soviet fellow travelers and actual agents by this time.
It's fascinating to listen in on Churchill and Stalin's conversations. Even though they were ultimately opposed to each other's governance and economic systems, you can really see that they clearly understood each other's worldview and they each knew what the other one wanted. Almost nobody outside of the United States understood the American worldview at the time, and nobody really could wrap their head around what we wanted.
They lost soooo many people. If we had treated them with more empathy and less real politik the cold war could have been avoided. We bled together to stop evil
Thanks!
What surprises me is how Japan did not recognize the sheer colossal size of the American Army and Navy and Airforce.
In 1940, the American Navy had 4 aircraft carriers. By 1945, they had over 100.
Plus, there was no way of Churchill upsetting his cash cow… American!
The real reason the Japanese war council refused to negotiate or surrender was because the men sitting on it knew they'd have to answer for their war crimes. It ends in death for them either way.
I always wonder if Japan had not bombed Pearl Harbor but tiptoed around US possessions and invaded the USSR from the East as the Whermach invaded from the West. What would the US reaction been.
France should have no hand. They dropped their baguettes and ran! F that noise
You guys are just fantastic!
5:20 FDR is just tired Parent saying “at least they’re not fighting“💀 😂
Personally, I don't care for Indy including the other historian in the vids. While the conent is as always great the presentation suffers due to a lack of enthusiasm and subjective nuisances that keep me scrolling back ten seconds at a time because my focus shifted without the creators intent. To myself, and I hope I'm in minority with my view because the other historian is knowledgeable… This is Indy and the stone the the shoe.
Can’t lie, the more I learn about the French and history the more I dislike them💀
BEFORE LEND LEASE, ORINGAL BORDERS KEPT.. BUTT NO GIVE COMMIES EVERY THING 😢
😢 STALIN GIVEN POLAND AND BALTIC STATES ,ETC ,AND MANCHURIA,

Every squad got the victorian imperialist, the social crusader, and the Soviet tyrant.
Actually it is amazing how much power the allies are willing to give France. They have basically been an enemy since 1940 and the allies have spent probably more blood and treasure supporting the ‘free French’ than they ever got back in positive military help.
Kennan is the man.. the mister long telegram himself. Yes, no centrally planned, state dominated economy can survive in the long term anyhow, but the US had masters such as Kennan and the Soviets did not..
It would've been better if Churchill wasn't in power after the US committed to Europe First policy. He was a Imperialist and too old fashioned.
Fascinating!!!
I find the conference between Stalin and de Gaulle interesting given what happens shortly in the Suez crisis.
Any chance Spartacus could have his volume increased in future?
I really want to watch his content, like the war against humanity series but I can't hear what he says from a phones speakers while I workout so I just don't watch things he's involved in despite really wanting to
Why history don't speak about eden-molotov PACKT ,,,? why a nazy+bolshevic pact was nad and "democratic" eden+bolshevic pact who do the same to split poland and sell east europe is good ?
First of all, thank you to Indy, Spartacus and the entire production team of World War 2 – this series is brilliant. I have just finishing McCullough's "Truman", and when Roosevelt dies in office in April 1945, Goebbels wrote to Hitler that the 'it was written in the stars' that a German victory was imminent. I suppose that both he and Hitler thought that Truman would just roll over and sign a peace treaty like the eastern powers did with Frederick the Great in the 18th century. Complete lunacy, but still very interesting.
I still can't fathom Magda Goebles. It's natural for a mother to protect her kids. Try taking a cub from a mother bear. I think she must have been insane.

Fascinating Episode once again. Thank you. Which remindes me. I still need to watch some D Day Episodes 🙂
Great work Indy and Sparty, you're a winning team I'd bet on anytime!!!😀👏👍
Thank you Both,…. Extremely interesting and informative…..as per usual.
Is the guys real name Spartacus? Nah
Absolutely bewildering this isn't a multi million sub channel. It absolutely will be and should be!
A social crusader is the term used to describe the man that brought in the welfare state and turned the us on it's head due to the new deal. Black homes had father's in 3/4 of households after new deal and the marriage to the welfare state black fathers would only be in home 1/4 of households. There goes the old FDR is a saint. He was a racist and a tyrant that happened to be in power when this GREAT country went to war
Japan: “We neeeeed ONE last final decisive victory!!”
USA: “how many times do we have to teach you this lesson old man 😠”
