    Can a small country start a big war? We have the example of the First World War, which was caused by Serbia—or rather by advocates of a Greater Serbia who saw the Austro-Hungarian Empire standing in their way. The empire had to be destroyed, and its destruction could come about only through a major global...

    You are misled, Britain was behind all of it cleverly manipulating everybody. Paying money in roundabout ways to make it seem there were only russian sponsors.
    The amazon source below is an excellent and true account and the sequel is for reading at their website firstworldwarhiddenhistory.wordpress.com

    The sleep walkers is a totally misleading propaganda piece. The following also available in german is the source to focus on. Second to none.

    Hello Pete, I recently read that Winston Churchill got an excellent hiding when passing through Belgrade on Orient Express as a journalist on the way back from the Boer War.

    The first concentration camp in human history and the first genocide in modern history was what the British did to Boer civilians during this war. The Serbians were very pro Boer, and when the British committed horrible crimes against Boer civilians, this was covered in detail in the Serbian press of the time. Churchill was a very annoying propagandist of the British empire and his lies were unbearable to the Serbians following this war. A Serbian military officer promised that he would give Churchill a good hiding if he could ever reach him and he did: http://www.ebritic.com/?p=309381.

    The reason I mention this anecdote is not to scare Peter Frost for the historical revisionist rubbish he wrote here then to remind readers that the British and the Serbians have long standing issues. My personal belief is that Serbians cannot stand the British/English because they are the sleazy manipulators and skillful liers, whilst the British/English cannot stand the unruly rebels such as the Serbs who they could never fully control. With this in mind, it is easier to understand why the Anglos are leading the World in anti-Russian and anti-Serbian historical revisionism recently: of a global empire now only hate remains. Their intention is to present Serbians as a super-aggressive mini-Russians. If I find a bit of time I will dispute the author's shallow writing, point by point.

    No, it’s genetic anglos are germanic christian al quaedas slavs are danavas along with Irish.

    First modern genocide would be the 100smillions starved post 1857 ‘India’

    Wasn't the Serbian Black Hand backed by Russian Military Intelligence? It was already in existance as far back as 1903 when Dragutin Dimitrijevic and a group of officers under his command assassinated King Alexander and his consort Draga in the May Overthrow.

    Not really, because Russians were not sure about what was going on, but looks like Austrians did (Memoars, Steed volume I). Dragutin Dimitrijevic- Apis was not so influential he was not even a senior officer in 1903, he became important later when the Black Hand reunited again in 1911.

    Your references from Wikipedia are just not reliable source for this kind of accusation. Serbia did not cause the Great War and you should look into A.J.P Taylor as well as the documents from the July Crisis 1914. Even Wilhelm said that “there is no reason for war any more” and Gray said if any country would accept those kind of terms would cease to exist. Moreover, Germany had Schlieffen plan since 1905, so it was obvious it was preparing for war on two fronts. The time table for the beginning of the war is off, because Germany crossed the border and attacked first even though Russia did partially mobilize because it was huge country and it would take few weeks for Russia to mobilize completely. Moreover, Serbia was democratic country and Alexander became autocratic ruler, under the influence of his wife Draga, so it was obvious that something had to be done. The murder was not planned. Steed states that they the king was supposed to be overthrown but in the heat of the moment (when everything was not unfolding like it was planned) officers lost their temper and both king and queen were killed.
    Finally coup in Serbia did not lead to the Great War. However, Serbia as well as Russia felt that Austria used the momentum and annexed Bosnia in 1908, and Russia clearly stated back than that they will support their Slavic brothers ( pan Slavism) and that it will not back off. It has been underlined that the killer Gavrilo Princip is Serb, but he was also from Bosnia not from Serbia. Also, Pasic tried to worn Potjorek in Sarajevo and told him it is not the best time for Ferdinand to visit ( remember June 28 is Serbian National holyday). And just to mention, it took Austria almost 30 days to send the Ultimatum to Serbia. Why? Because they wanted to make sure that Germany would support them unconditionally ( this is when they got the Blank Check ). Fischer clearly states that Germany is to blame for the World War I, because they had a choice not to back up Austria and settle things diplomatically. Also Wilhelm was known as Wilhelm the sudden, so in one moment he would bring decision in the other he would say there is no reason for the war and from primary documents read, it was all huge political game, where Germany was actually trying to establish new order ( they made their fleet to challenge British in 1912). Overall, the whole situation cannot be viewed from only one perspective. Bottom line, how come German Unification and German nationalism was OK in 19 ct, but unification of South Slavs was not OK? If subjects in Bosnia had more freedom and if Austria was taking care of Bosnia “Young Bosna” organization would never be made, but when people are unhappy, poor, and when the whole country suffers turmoil happens. As for Serbia, they are uncivilized because they killed Alexander and Draga, but French are civilized after killing their kings and queen and executing another 40 000 + Frenchmen in so called “Reign of Terror?” To conclude, Serbia did not cause the Great War, because Serbia was exhausted after Balkan Wars and Serbia did not want another war. Austria with its great ally caused the war, because Austria was deteriorating, and they were well aware that their kingdom will fall a part because it was created from multiple different nationalities and Germany was pursuing “expansion” policy since Bismarck.

  • “If peace had lasted a few more years, domestic troubles would have overwhelmed some of the major powers, making them less inclined to engage in foreign military adventures.”

    I thought it worked the other way around. In the face of domestic troubles nations go to war externally so as not to alter the domestic status quo.

  • Not sure I buy the idea that revolution was inevitable in Russia. Had Tiananmen Square overthrown CCP everyone would be saying it was inevitable. But it didn’t, and over 25 years on China is very stable, growing very rapidly and still has an authoritarian government.

    I fail to see why the Imperial system in Russia could not have achieved the same. Industrial growth was considerable in improving the lot of life of the average citizen. Witte/Stolypin economic reforms were driving growth that would rival Stalin’s forced industrialization later (without the millions in dead bodies cost).

    It’s very conceivable that the empire could have handled it and kept the system going for quite some time without the incredible shock to the system that was (de facto) losing the war.

    When Jews don't particularly identify as Jews, society regards them as Whites. But there's no equivalent of that for Blacks.

    Other differences include that half-Black children are ethnically Black, expanding the pool of Blacks, whereas half-Jewish children are ethnically part of the White melting pot, subtracting from the pool of ethnic Jews. That's true even for the minority of half-Jews who remain religiously Jewish, like Dianna Agron.

    If Blacks are playing for their "ethnic team," then they should marry Whites to expand their team. If Jews are playing for their "ethnic team," then they should do the opposite and marry Jews to avoid reducing their team.

    Because of the social premium on IQ, whoever marries Jews benefits. But Jews are mostly marrying Gentiles, and producing Gentile babies. That's a strong indicator that their revealed self-identification is not as a separate group.

    Not sure I understand your point. If there’s no difference between Jews and gentiles, why would half-Jews subtract from Jews?

    Even non religious half-Jews identify as Jewish:

    http://www.jewishjournal.com/the_ticket/item/girls_writer_lays_bare_womens_insecurities_20120425/

    Dunham said that Hannah shares her Jewish sensibility. “I went to Hebrew school for, like, two weeks, and then didn’t get the part I wanted in the play and quit,” she said. “But I’ve always had a great love of all the holidays that we celebrate together as a family: Passover, Chanukah. I’ve spent a good amount of time in temple, and I definitely feel very culturally Jewish, although that’s the biggest cliché for a Jewish woman to say.”

    Jews have different paternal lines from the dominant European paternal lines of R1b and R1a. Taking gentile wives expands Jewish paternal lines.

    Jews are almost always brought up by anti-Jewish commenters, who discuss the subject far more frequently.

    In 2015, “Jew” has appeared 203times (across 30 comments) on my comments list, whereas on Svigor’s comments list it’s appeared 273 times (197 on page 1 + 76 on page 2). We could add that 273 to the many other anti-Jewish commenters, like Pizza with Hot Pepper, but they regularly adopt new pseudonyms. (I support their right to their privacy.)

    There’s clearly an imbalance. What you’re arguing for in effect is for that imbalance to become even more one-sided. But I recognize your point.

    This reminds me of a story my Mother told about a Southern girl who was selling magazine subscriptions in Fredericksburg VA (where Mom and Dad and 6 mo. old me lived in an apartment) when my Father was serving in the Marines at Quantico VA. The girl asked Mom, “Are you a Catholic, or a Christian?”

    You're not tracking the discussion:

    1. The review of People with Jewish Ancestry is an additional line of evidence that's consistent with the high intermarriage rate, which was questioned above.

    2. The reason the high intermarriage rate is relevant is because it's the most direct way to get data on Jews' revealed self-conception. Do Jews conceive of themselves as being on the team of a separate ethnicity? The answer for most Jews is clearly "no," because their high intermarriage rate is causing that ethnicity to mix into the White melting pot. There are anti-White Jews like Tim Wise, but they're a minority.

    The links I posted are 3 mutually consistent sources of data showing that most Jews oppose immigration and the de-Whitening of the US and Europe. Unless that data can be countered with other data, that means that most Jews not only don't conceive of themselves as separate from other Whites, but are on the correct side of the most important issue by far for White interests: immigration.

    As an advocate of science, my opinions must be based on data, rather than narratives.

    The reason for this discussion is that saving the West will be far easier if we have on our side People with Jewish Ancestry and people who like them (most of the White race). Promoting old divisions makes us look like sleepwalkers.

    In Internet slang, a troll is a person who sows discord on the Internet by starting arguments or upsetting people, by posting inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community (such as a newsgroup, forum, chat room, or blog) with the deliberate intent of provoking readers into an emotional response or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.

    But we can test the revealed preference / revealed self-conception of most Jews by looking at Jewish-Americans intermarriage rate with other groups. It’s not 10%, 20% or 30%. It’s 71%.

    I honor you by calling you a troll. The only alternative is a complete dolt. The idea that those silly lists of names prove anything is positively insulting. Do you seriously mean to argue that Jews in mixed marriages cannot continue to support the anti-white status quo? As for citing a French-Jewish tilt to the centre-right as evidence of "direct" support for white interests, at the very best it reeks of the most pathetic kind of desperation; at worst - well, I don't really need to explain it, do I.

    This reminds me of a story my Mother told about a Southern girl who was selling magazine subscriptions in Fredericksburg VA (where Mom and Dad and 6 mo. old me lived in an apartment) when my Father was serving in the Marines at Quantico VA. The girl asked Mom, "Are you a Catholic, or a Christian?"

And now European countries are steadily fading into insignificance and even demographic exstinction. Simply depressing.

    The sleepwalkers also seems to be an apt term for how our generation will be viewed in the future. It’s highly visible where things are leading, but nobody seems able to change the course.

    The French and English are projected to become a minority of births in their own countries in the 2030s. Nobody could make an argument that that’s what should happen, but it’s happening nonetheless.

    Already in Berlin, one of my favorite cities, 45% of residents under age 18 are foreigners. The composition of the cities has an enlarged impact on policy because rural people tend to get shut out of cultural influence.

    Yes, some hyper- Jews are really into the Jewish identity thing and will always be on Jews' team.

    But we can test the revealed preference / revealed self-conception of most Jews by looking at Jewish-Americans intermarriage rate with other groups. It's not 10%, 20% or 30%. It's 71%. It's the dominant trend in the Jewish community. So the religion will continue, but Jewish-Americans as a "co-ethnicity" are being absorbed into the White melting pot.

    I'm glad that Jews are on our team in terms of creating people like Richard Feynman, helping create civilizational advances like the Manhattan Project, chemotherapy, and the cure for polio, and creating "Western-philic" cultural properties like Superman, Conan the Barbarian, 300, and Red Dawn.

    Historian Jacques Barzun believes Darwinism brought on World War I: “Since in every European country between 1870 and 1914 there was a war party demanding armaments, an individualist party demanding ruthless competition, an imperialist party demanding a free hand over backward peoples, a socialist party demanding the conquest of power and a racialist party demanding internal purges against aliens — all of them, when appeals to greed and glory failed, invoked Spencer and Darwin, which was to say science incarnate.”

    That is about the level of the ‘a man called Archie Duke shot an ostrich’ explanation of how WW1 started

    Spencer was a philosopher, not a scientist. And he was a proponent of economic competition see here. The problem in Europe after 1870 was the German nation, no longer a gaggle of princely states that could be manipulated, but too big and strong. That is why the other powers became so keen to acquire colonies after that date; to match Germany. And so Germany became the target of a an alliance of Britain France and Russia. Admiral Fisher head of the British navy wanted a pre-emptive strike on the German navy. Joffre wanted France to go on the offensive through Belgium as soon as war was declared. Russia may have been in on the plot, or at least aware that something was going to happen to the archduke. Germany tried to destroy the British empire through a Muslim Jihad and the Russian empire with a Bolshevik revolution. None of these states had any choice, if they wanted to survive, as shown by the fact that in WW2 Russia under the Bolsheviks (Stalin) tried to stay out until the capitalist powers had exhausted themselves, but was forced to fight on the side of the same capitalist powers Russia was with in WW1.

  • The World Wars have had a profound impact on the European peoples. The first demolished their Empires and the second basically made them multi-continental hubs (the male cohort of the population was depleted so immigrants had to be brought in from the old colonies).

    The country that lost the most men — the Soviet Union — did not open its borders to immigration. In any case, it’s been 70 years since 1945, so that reason hardly applies today.

    The Austro-Hungarian empire was increasingly aggressive and expansionist whilst at the same time becoming more internally unstable. Germans and Hungarians sat atop millions of Slavs as their rulers as the sense of individual nationhood was becoming more pronounced in the minds of the various subjects. In 1908 A-H annexxed Bosnia-Herzegovina; there were no Germans or Hungarians there so what gave them the right to simply take it by force?

    Uh, the Austro-Hungarian Empire annexed most of its Slavic territories during the wars against the Ottoman Empire or the partitions of Poland — back in the 18th century. In any case, it did not originally define itself as a nation-state. It primarily defined itself as a Catholic Christian empire at war with the Muslim Turks. It’s true that the various Slavic subject peoples saw themselves as having second-class status when the Empire was redefined as an Austrian-Hungarian federation in the mid-19th century. That was the whole point of trialism, which the heir apparent Franz Ferdinand espoused. The Slavic peoples would become a third part in a tripartite state.

    Bosnia-Herzegovina was annexed from the Ottoman Empire, which wasn’t a nation-state either. Previously, it was simply under Austro-Hungarian occupation. When the Young Turks wanted to give Bosnia seats in the new Ottoman parliament, the Austro-Hungarians felt they had to annex the territory or let it drift back into the Ottoman Empire.

    Other reasons for war?


    Reading a history book if Europe leading up to World War one very interesting fact was made to illustrate the popularity of war at the time. Leaders of European nations in 1914, with few exceptions, dressed like a combination of Sargent Pepper and Muammer Gaddafi, only with another ten pounds of medals hanging off their chest. The world was getting ready for war in part because there was a perception that war was noble, brave, and every man's patriotic duty.

    What happened to glory gained through war? Why don't we want our nations leaders to look like members of a marching band festooned with shiny colorful medals on every square inch of their puffed up chest?

    ummmm

    Hello Pete, I recently read that Winston Churchill got an excellent hiding when passing through Belgrade on Orient Express as a journalist on the way back from the Boer War.

    The first concentration camp in human history and the first genocide in modern history was what the British did to Boer civilians during this war. The Serbians were very pro Boer, and when the British committed horrible crimes against Boer civilians, this was covered in detail in the Serbian press of the time. Churchill was a very annoying propagandist of the British empire and his lies were unbearable to the Serbians following this war. A Serbian military officer promised that he would give Churchill a good hiding if he could ever reach him and he did: http://www.ebritic.com/?p=309381.

    The reason I mention this anecdote is not to scare Peter Frost for the historical revisionist rubbish he wrote here then to remind readers that the British and the Serbians have long standing issues. My personal belief is that Serbians cannot stand the British/English because they are the sleazy manipulators and skillful liers, whilst the British/English cannot stand the unruly rebels such as the Serbs who they could never fully control. With this in mind, it is easier to understand why the Anglos are leading the World in anti-Russian and anti-Serbian historical revisionism recently: of a global empire now only hate remains. Their intention is to present Serbians as a super-aggressive mini-Russians. If I find a bit of time I will dispute the author's shallow writing, point by point.

    the first genocide in modern history was what the British did to Boer civilians during this war

    So the Boers no longer exist? I did not know that, thank you for the information.

    My genes trace back to Cicero and Virgil, Dante and Michelangelo.
     
    Ashkenazi have the same genes, since 50% of their genes derive from ancient Rome. Greg Cochran:

    From the history we know, they look to be a mix of merchants, artisans, and POWs from Israel (the fathers) and local Italian girls, about 2000 years ago. … Their mtDNA is unambiguously Italian. … Yet they seem paler than you would expect as a 50-50 mix of Italians and Middle Easterners... There may well have been significant selection for those traits, just as there seems to have been in the general European population.
     
    re: "Zionism’s core dynamic is Rome-envy."
    Jews earn the U.S. 40% of its science Nobel prizes. Likewise, Israel is #1 in the world per capita for scientific papers and number of startups,[1] being second in total startups only to the United States, despite Israel only having 8 million people, and only 3 million Ashkenazi. With such low modern contributions to the world, combined with the low contributions of their ancient Roman ancestors to Western civilization, no wonder Jews envy other countries!

    If we're going to judge groups by only the debit side of their ledger, then Italians have a lot to answer for for their crimes against the British and Germanics 2000 years ago. Likewise, Germanics have a lot to answer for for sacking Rome 1500 years ago. If Jews had done those things, these websites would never stop talking about it.

    I want Jews on my team, as well as the British, Germans, Italians, Russians, and everybody else who adds to civilization. We're generous enough of spirit that there's room for the heroism of all those groups, despite (amazingly) none of them being perfect. If European leaders had felt that way and were a little smarter, then Europe could have avoided WW1 and WW2. Imagine how much larger European populations and economies today would be.

    The French and English are projected to become a minority of births in their own countries in the 2030s. Nobody could make an argument that that's what should happen, but it's happening nonetheless.

    Already in Berlin, one of my favorite cities, 45% of residents under age 18 are foreigners. The composition of the cities has an enlarged impact on policy because rural people tend to get shut out of cultural influence.

    [Ron Unz - my comment had an url that broke the comment display here, although not on the user comments page. (I'm on a device that can't edit comments.)]

    My genes trace back to Cicero and Virgil, Dante and Michelangelo.

    Ashkenazi have the same genes, since 50% of their genes derive from ancient Rome. Greg Cochran:

    From the history we know, they look to be a mix of merchants, artisans, and POWs from Israel (the fathers) and local Italian girls, about 2000 years ago. … Their mtDNA is unambiguously Italian. … Yet they seem paler than you would expect as a 50-50 mix of Italians and Middle Easterners… There may well have been significant selection for those traits, just as there seems to have been in the general European population.

    re: “Zionism’s core dynamic is Rome-envy.”
    Jews earn the U.S. 40% of its science Nobel prizes. Likewise, Israel is #1 in the world per capita for scientific papers and number of startups,[1] being second in total startups only to the United States, despite Israel only having 8 million people, and only 3 million Ashkenazi. With such low modern contributions to the world, combined with the low contributions of their ancient Roman ancestors to Western civilization, no wonder Jews envy other countries!

    If we’re going to judge groups by only the debit side of their ledger, then Italians have a lot to answer for for their crimes against the British and Germanics 2000 years ago. Likewise, Germanics have a lot to answer for for sacking Rome 1500 years ago. If Jews had done those things, these websites would never stop talking about it.

    I want Jews on my team, as well as the British, Germans, Italians, Russians, and everybody else who adds to civilization. We’re generous enough of spirit that there’s room for the heroism of all those groups, despite (amazingly) none of them being perfect. If European leaders had felt that way and were a little smarter, then Europe could have avoided WW1 and WW2. Imagine how much larger European populations and economies today would be.

    Well, the Serbs (the subject of the original blog entry) did achieve their goals and got a Serb-dominated Yugoslavia as a result of the 1st world war…admittedly at the price of very high losses among both army and civilians…but still, the Serbian ultra-nationalists behind the Sarajevo assassination basically “won” and achieved their aims.

    Protection of minorities is a traditional way for states to keep other nations or states weak and divided and not unifiable under nationalism. The treaty of Westphalia was supposedly the beginning of state sovereignty but it guaranteed the right of religious (Protestant) minorities in various German states and hence:-

    Review of Europe: The Struggle for Supremacy, from 1453 to the Present.
    [It] “has been seen by generations of international lawyers and international relations theorists as the breakthrough for the modern concepts of sovereignty and non-intervention in the domestic affairs of other states. [but] the whole purpose of the treaty was to guard against German princes exercising an untrammeled sovereignty…the Westphalian treaties were nothing less than a charter for intervention.”

    Russia practiced the same strategy, it kept Poland weak by prevention of a hereditary monarchy (supposedly to maintain the Polish nobles ‘liberties’), and claiming a role as protector of minorities.

    Similarly, when Russia defeated the Ottoman Empire and in 1878 detached a huge swath of territory which was to be a principality called Bulgaria, the Congress of Berlin, called by the other great powers, forced the reduction of this greater Bulgaria. Bosnia-Hercegovina was to be administered by Austria-Hungary, while Serbia and Romania became independent. The rights of Jews in Serbia (and Romania) were made an issue to give leverage over those states. See here

    Italian unification broke the Congress of Vienna’s freeze on the Slavs (slaves) in the Balkans freeing themselves from the Turks. This was opposed because the other powers such as Austria Hungary and especially the British feared Russia would become too strong if it carved up the Ottoman empire. . The Russians then went east and they leased Port Arthur and tried to keep the Japanese influence in Korea below the 39th parallel, The Japanese got vital assistance from the ethnically Japanese British navy Admiral, Fisher. And thrashed Russia. Crushed in the east, Russia turned back west and began to support the slavs in the Balkans like Serbia.

    Encyclopædia Britannica: The Balkan League was formed under Russian auspices in the spring of 1912 to take Macedonia away from Turkey, which was already involved in a war with Italy.[...]

    The Turkish collapse was so complete that all parties were willing to conclude an armistice on Dec. 3, 1912. A peace conference was begun in London, but after a coup d’état by the Young Turks in Constantinople in January 1913, war with the Ottomans was resumed. Again the allies were victorious: Ioánnina fell to the Greeks and Adrianople to the Bulgarians. Under a peace treaty signed in London on May 30, 1913, the Ottoman Empire lost almost all of its remaining European territory, including all of Macedonia and Albania. Albanian independence was insisted upon by the European powers, and Macedonia was to be divided among the Balkan allies. [...]
    Serbia, which had been forced by Austria to give up its Albanian conquests, regarded Vienna with greater hostility than ever. The heightened tensions in the Balkans reached their climax in World War I, which was sparked by the assassination of the Austrian heir-apparent by a Serb in Sarajevo, Bosnia, on June 28, 1914.

    The popular Italian movement by defeating Austria (the Risorgimento) unifying the country and then getting into a war with the Ottoman Empire was important to the events that made it possible for Serbia to start WW1. If history is any guide, Italy is the one to watch.

    Florence Nightingale showed that disease killed more soldiers at the front than combat. The western front in WW1 was the first campaign in which combat killed more soldiers at the front than disease. I have read that up until D day the British and Americans had lost more men in vehicle accidents than combat.

  • Soon Britain will fall to the hordes of immigrants it welcomes to its shores with open arms. My country South Africa has suffered 300 years of injustice at the hands of the British. During the Anglo Boer War 1899 -1901 more than 24000 women and children died under barbarous conditions in England’s concentration camps. This equates to 2,4% of the total white population in 1900 (http://www.thetruthaboutsouthafrica.com/p/overview-of-south-africa-international.html). Today, 115 years later, the Boers still suffer from this loss of its rightful population growth potential in its own country.

    Our farms in the ZAR republics were burned to the ground, our livestock destroyed or stolen by the British for their scorched earth policy. And still the British continue their onslaught against us by aiding the Communistic and parasitic black ANC government against against fellow Europeans, the Boers.

    British arrogance and pride will soon suffer its natural fate when Muslims complete their conquest of the Mud Island. And all this thanks to the welcoming arms of a British government who value foreigners (in every sense of the word) above their own people.

    Hello Pete, I recently read that Winston Churchill got an excellent hiding when passing through Belgrade on Orient Express as a journalist on the way back from the Boer War.

    The first concentration camp in human history and the first genocide in modern history was what the British did to Boer civilians during this war. The Serbians were very pro Boer, and when the British committed horrible crimes against Boer civilians, this was covered in detail in the Serbian press of the time. Churchill was a very annoying propagandist of the British empire and his lies were unbearable to the Serbians following this war. A Serbian military officer promised that he would give Churchill a good hiding if he could ever reach him and he did: http://www.ebritic.com/?p=309381.

    The reason I mention this anecdote is not to scare Peter Frost for the historical revisionist rubbish he wrote here then to remind readers that the British and the Serbians have long standing issues. My personal belief is that Serbians cannot stand the British/English because they are the sleazy manipulators and skillful liers, whilst the British/English cannot stand the unruly rebels such as the Serbs who they could never fully control. With this in mind, it is easier to understand why the Anglos are leading the World in anti-Russian and anti-Serbian historical revisionism recently: of a global empire now only hate remains. Their intention is to present Serbians as a super-aggressive mini-Russians. If I find a bit of time I will dispute the author's shallow writing, point by point.

    Yes, the British continue to get a free pass with regards to the causes of WW1. The British likely saw themselves in the rising tide that was Germany – the Kaiser was related to Queen Victoria, and England’s seed was planted by immigrants-turned-invaders Hengist and Horsa 1500 years earlier. And that was competition that would be hard to reconcile.

    Britain controlled one fourth of the world’s land mass and one fifth of the world’s population before the war, but Germany’s educational system and industry had surpassed that of Britain by 1914, so the British convinced themselves they were looking at the next Napoleonic France or the next Spanish Armada. Professor Frost’s essay is wonderful and enlightening, but British paranoia still has to be part of the equation. A major part.

    Heh, there's nothing like a sanctimonious Britisher blaming Russia / Germany / France / the US / Serbia (lol) for WW1 / WW2 / the sacking of Rome and all other wars past, present or future.

    All are to blame for war, except the "doughty" little Britishers in their Dear Old Blighty.

    That the British have invaded practically every country in the entire world over just the last 200-300 years, and have not been invaded themselves since about William of Normandy, never seems to register.
    That the British practiced the "balance of power" strategy, which involved pitting the two strongest mainland European nations against each other, is something best left unsaid.
    That the British utterly dominated the world in 1900, and were therefore in the prime position to control and manipulate matters of international diplomacy (as they did indeed), is a fact that is unnecessary to state when one can blame people like the designated whipping boys, the Serbs.

    All are to blame, but the Perfidious Albion.

    A couple of good references for those interested:
    "The Empire of 'The City'" by E.C. Knuth.
    And Quigley's "Tragedy & Hope" and "Anglo-American Establishment".

    Agreed.

    The British aristocrats and merchant class were major operators on the world stage for several centuries and had played a truly dirty game of politics pitting nations against each while it stood back or backed the black horse(like the Ottoman Empire vs. Czarist Russia) or trying turn China into a giant opium den.

    Had they let Russia cleanse southern Europe of the despised Turk, Constantinople would be Christian today. But they couldn’t let them do it, because of the trade concessions they had with the Turks.

    Even now their elites are beating the drums for a military spat with Russia. They just can’t help themselves, they are addicted to war. I doubt they’ll stop until London and their great estates are rubble.

    As for WWI, they thought beating Gerry would be a piece of cake and would be home within a year. Instead the fools wiped out the flower of manhood of their country, bankrupted their empire and set the stage for Hitler.

The new adolescent dog on the block, having just recently become a so called nation, this dog was howling for continental power but its older cousin, the Brits, would not let go.
    The Brits were much better at PR, the Germs were waay too honest and immature. And if Woodrow Wilson, the ardent Anglophile, had stayed out of it, this new dog would have won and we would not have Herr Hitler, whose memory nowadays is to be used as a rhetorical Maxim gun to mow down any mention of YT unity.
    Twelve Wars is a book that discusses Wilson and his bias for the Brits, but it also emphasizes the continuation of the food blockade, six months after November 1918, that forced the Germs to sign the Versailles treaty.
    Sign the guilt clause or starve is a pretty bleak choice when 100,000 people die. This gap between November 11 and the treaty signing is not discussed much but it seemed to play a pivotal part in world history.

    The Serbian people paid dearly for the ambitions of their rulers. They suffered the highest death rate (deaths as a % of the population) of any country in WW1. Wikipedia says 16.67% to 27.78% of the population perished. (Compare with France around 4% killed, or UK around 2%.) Around 1 million died out of a population of 4.5 million.

    Even with much lower death rates, the Western nations became highly averse to war thereafter and saw WW1 as a tragic mistake to be avoided at all costs.

    The Serbians, despite what most of us would think of as a catastrophic death rate, did not.

    Curious how different populations are more or less war averse.

    Well the Serbians saw tangible gains from the war.

    Hello Pete, I recently read that Winston Churchill got an excellent hiding when passing through Belgrade on Orient Express as a journalist on the way back from the Boer War.

    The first concentration camp in human history and the first genocide in modern history was what the British did to Boer civilians during this war. The Serbians were very pro Boer, and when the British committed horrible crimes against Boer civilians, this was covered in detail in the Serbian press of the time. Churchill was a very annoying propagandist of the British empire and his lies were unbearable to the Serbians following this war. A Serbian military officer promised that he would give Churchill a good hiding if he could ever reach him and he did: http://www.ebritic.com/?p=309381.

    The reason I mention this anecdote is not to scare Peter Frost for the historical revisionist rubbish he wrote here then to remind readers that the British and the Serbians have long standing issues. My personal belief is that Serbians cannot stand the British/English because they are the sleazy manipulators and skillful liers, whilst the British/English cannot stand the unruly rebels such as the Serbs who they could never fully control. With this in mind, it is easier to understand why the Anglos are leading the World in anti-Russian and anti-Serbian historical revisionism recently: of a global empire now only hate remains. Their intention is to present Serbians as a super-aggressive mini-Russians. If I find a bit of time I will dispute the author's shallow writing, point by point.

    Modern British genocide predates the Boer War. See the Irish Holocaust:

    http://www.redicecreations.com/radio/2015/02/RIR-150216.php

    He is the author of Ireland 1845-1850: the Perfect Holocaust, and Who Kept it ‘Perfect’ and he is behind irishholocaust.org. Chris joins us to speak about the Irish Holocaust and the cover-up that is accomplished by the same British terrorism and bribery that perpetrated the genocide. He explains the dark time during 1845-1850 when Ireland starved because its food, from 40 to 70 shiploads per day, was removed at gunpoint by 12,000 British constables reinforced by the British militia. Chris describes how the British completely took over 95% of Ireland’s territory, extracting all goods and wiping out at least half of the indigenous population. We’ll discuss the lie of Ireland’s “potato famine,” the official story used to explain the deaths of over 5.2 million people, which is propagated to this day – even by the Irish government, academia, and the Catholic Church. Chris gives details of his extensive research into the locations of British food removal regiments and over 170 mass graves across Ireland. He’ll explain the fear of persecution and intimidation that continues to infect Irish society in modern times.

    Agreed.

    The British aristocrats and merchant class were major operators on the world stage for several centuries and had played a truly dirty game of politics pitting nations against each while it stood back or backed the black horse(like the Ottoman Empire vs. Czarist Russia) or trying turn China into a giant opium den.

    Had they let Russia cleanse southern Europe of the despised Turk, Constantinople would be Christian today. But they couldn't let them do it, because of the trade concessions they had with the Turks.

    Even now their elites are beating the drums for a military spat with Russia. They just can't help themselves, they are addicted to war. I doubt they'll stop until London and their great estates are rubble.

    As for WWI, they thought beating Gerry would be a piece of cake and would be home within a year. Instead the fools wiped out the flower of manhood of their country, bankrupted their empire and set the stage for Hitler.

    I’d like to add that “False Flag” operations can be an effective catalyst for a small State with an agenda; pitting nations against one another, while leaving said instigator unscathed.

    The Austro-Hungarian empire was increasingly aggressive and expansionist whilst at the same time becoming more internally unstable. Germans and Hungarians sat atop millions of Slavs as their rulers as the sense of individual nationhood was becoming more pronounced in the minds of the various subjects. In 1908 A-H annexxed Bosnia-Herzegovina; there were no Germans or Hungarians there so what gave them the right to simply take it by force? Germany gave them a blank check to do whatever they wanted which just emboldened A-H and was probably a mistake on the part of Germany.

    Yes, the British continue to get a free pass with regards to the causes of WW1. The British likely saw themselves in the rising tide that was Germany - the Kaiser was related to Queen Victoria, and England's seed was planted by immigrants-turned-invaders Hengist and Horsa 1500 years earlier. And that was competition that would be hard to reconcile.

    Britain controlled one fourth of the world's land mass and one fifth of the world's population before the war, but Germany's educational system and industry had surpassed that of Britain by 1914, so the British convinced themselves they were looking at the next Napoleonic France or the next Spanish Armada. Professor Frost's essay is wonderful and enlightening, but British paranoia still has to be part of the equation. A major part.

  • The Serbian people paid dearly for the ambitions of their rulers. They suffered the highest death rate (deaths as a % of the population) of any country in WW1. Wikipedia says 16.67% to 27.78% of the population perished. (Compare with France around 4% killed, or UK around 2%.) Around 1 million died out of a population of 4.5 million.

    Even with much lower death rates, the Western nations became highly averse to war thereafter and saw WW1 as a tragic mistake to be avoided at all costs.

    The Serbians, despite what most of us would think of as a catastrophic death rate, did not.

    In Russia and in Germany, yes. In many other countries (Italy, France, UK, Sweden, Switzerland, just to name a few immigration destinations), not so much.

  • The Russian Revolutions of 1917 needed a mass of armed peasant soldiers in St Petersburg. They were the main force driving the revolution, because they were organized together in their quarters and they didn’t want to go to the front, so had both the incentive and the ability to start a revolution. The Russian government had very few troops able and willing to carry out its orders. The situation would have been different if there were no war. In such a case the Russian Czarist government wouldn’t have had masses of unreliable forces in its capital city, and hence, no revolution. (Or an ineffectual, suppressed revolution.) Most sources I read (like Orlando Figes) think it was mostly the soldiers and not the workers.

  • Other reasons for war?

    Reading a history book if Europe leading up to World War one very interesting fact was made to illustrate the popularity of war at the time. Leaders of European nations in 1914, with few exceptions, dressed like a combination of Sargent Pepper and Muammer Gaddafi, only with another ten pounds of medals hanging off their chest. The world was getting ready for war in part because there was a perception that war was noble, brave, and every man’s patriotic duty.

    What happened to glory gained through war? Why don’t we want our nations leaders to look like members of a marching band festooned with shiny colorful medals on every square inch of their puffed up chest?

    ummmm
    trench warfare
    carpet bombing
    17 million dead world war 1
    70 million dead world war 2
    film of the real horror rather than propaganda of the fake glory

    Historian Jacques Barzun believes Darwinism brought on World War I: “Since in every European country between 1870 and 1914 there was a war party demanding armaments, an individualist party demanding ruthless competition, an imperialist party demanding a free hand over backward peoples, a socialist party demanding the conquest of power and a racialist party demanding internal purges against aliens — all of them, when appeals to greed and glory failed, invoked Spencer and Darwin, which was to say science incarnate.”

  • Serbians must have been encouraged to precipitate a general European war by the Balkan Wars in which Serbia doubled its territory. I don’t know that the Ottoman empire was all that stable though.

    One could argue that Japan detaching Korea from China caused Russian tension with Japan .

    NEITHER Russia or Japan could gain the upper hand in Korea mainly because Japanese policymakers skillfully played the two great powers off against each other so as to avoid being devoured by either one

    In 1903 it came to a head as Russia tried to keep the Japanese out of Korea above the 39th parallel (Britain took advantage of Russian troubles by invading Tibet). The Tzar refused to make concessions or to use force, and said there would be no war; that led to defeat of Russia in the Russo-Japanese War, which meant the end of Russia being an effective deterrent to Germany: the key event that made the UK an ally of France and propelled Russia into the orbit of France. Internally, the 1905 disorder was largely spaked by Russia losing the war to Japan, which received considerable asstance from Britain in tactics (sneaky attack without declaration of war) and technical

    IT is sometimes taboo to introduce a hypothetical to history. Nevertheless, if there had been no offer from Admiral Fisher in Malta … there could not have been an overall victory for Japan.

    The Russian, like the French, revolution was initially a response to the country failing to exert its strength against external enemies.

  • Japan put a lot of money into Russian revolutionaries from at least 1904 to (sometime before) 1919.

    Replace 'Japan' with jewish bankers like Jacob Schiff and you would be right.

    Actually, the Russo-Japanese War of 1904/1905 was financed, almost in half, by an American banker Jakob Schiff. He was also successful in organizing revolutionary propaganda among Russian POW: http://strangeside.com/russo-japanese-war-financed-by-jacob-schiff/
    "Schiff provided approximately $20,000,000.00USD (non-adjusted) for the Russian Revolution," and "At the celebration of the 1917 triumph of Jewry, at Carnegie Hall in New York (N.Y. Times, 3/24/17), it was proudly told how Jacob Schiff had financed Communist propaganda spread among 50,000 Russian war prisoners."
    The same Mr. Schiff personally helped Leon Trotsky to return back to Russia from NYC and he was involved in arranging a safe passage for Lenin from Switzerland to Russia via German territories: http://www.ihr.org/jhr/v06/v06p389_John.html

  • The Home Rule Crisis in Ireland was also halted by the start of the war in 1914.
