Israel for example has excellent diplomatic relations with say the USA, but the USA would never share nuclear weapons secrets with Israel (in fact, president Kennedy was adamant that Israel cease all nuclear weapons development and were it not for his assassination, Israel and the USA would have run into a major confrontation over Israel’s nuclear programme). The intense level of cooeration between France and Israel with respect to the development of nuclear weapons in the 1950s and early 60s rises far higher than what most countries with good diplomatic relations would be willing to share with each other. Once small example of this is that Israeli scientists were the only foreign nationals who were allowed to roam freely at Marcoule. Anyway, Israel’s cooperation with France during the Suez Crisis was one of the things which facilitated the two countries’ cooperation in the nuclear weapons development field rising to the level it did.

The Jordanian army was literally led mainly by British officers, the RAF conducted almost daily reconnaissance missions against Israel. Israel shot down RAF planes that were about to attack Israel directly. The relations were very hostile and there was even a direct confrontation. And for being honest, why the heck would Britain ever perfer the interests of some 600,000 people, most of whom poor refugees in a very poor and small country with no resources, on the expense of good relations with many strong and large countries containing hundreds of millions of people, massive land areas and plenty of resources (Obviously oil one of the most important)? The answer? They never did. Not to mention that the Jews literally fought the British for decades for them to leave, and hundreds of thousands of refugees were at the time held hostage by the British internment camps (mainly in Cyprus). Don't forget that Israel was socialist and the only actual assistance it received at the time (aside from Jews world-wide), was a small arm delivery from Czechoslovakia (which of course was a Soviet puppet-state).

Thank you for uploading and making these video's!

Miss the 10-Minute Videos to be honest. They always felt really high quality and the detail along side the humour always made me enjoy them whereas the short videos always feel like they end before they can really begin so to speak. Would love if you posted some more of the 10-minute videos?

I am loving these small videos. They really bring to light the tiny details of history

For Britain, the Suez crisis was a disaster? It was one of the best things that could have happened to Britain because it brought the politicians to their senses. The new Prime Minister Macmillan set about dismantling Britain's worldwide military commitments and its pointless Empire. Britain actually had three different types of nuclear bomber in service, half a dozen aircraft carriers and conscript army equipped with obsolescent weaponry left over from WW2. The remaining Empire which Britain's leading historian Correlli Barnett described as “A useless ragbag of territory” and “A strategic, political and economic liability” was unloaded in less than 10 years. They got out of Africa so fast that in most places they cheated the rising political class out of their obligatory war of independence. It was a case of - “Go home, white man!” To which the answer was “Fine, would in two years be soon enough?” Getting rid of all these freed up money to tackle the appalling housing conditions in British cities. The construction industry in the 1960s was booming and as a trainee surveyor I could get work just about anywhere. By the 1950s Germany freed from costs of its own defence was making good the damage to its cities. No real start was made on rebuilding Britain's bombed cities until the early 1960s full 15 years after the war. I can remember as a very small child travelling through the centre of Liverpool on a tram and repeatedly asking my father, “Where are the houses?” I could not understand why there were vast areas with no buildings just derelict bomb sites. As a schoolboy in 1956 endless experts appeared on television saying the canal was absolutely vital to Britain because 90% of its oil passed through it. Without it oil would have to go round the Cape and that would require tankers of 50,000t(?) to be economic. Not only that, there were only three shipyards in the world who could build them that size. When the canal was closed in the 1970s tankers of 200,000 t + were built and guess what? It was actually cheaper to send them round the Cape! I have had a very cynical view of expert opinion ever since. There are times when, despite the initial humiliation it is actually a good thing to lose a war and this was one of them.

This encapsulates the reasons for British decline, and as you said, the reason why this is actually a great occurrrence. The Germans, with a clean slate and meritocracy controlling advancement,in modernising industries, had maade rapid inroads to their competitiveness,, versus Britain, because Britain wwas held back by the useless aristocracy(it still is). But this cut through tthe bs, that britain still neededd to be a world poower, 10 years too late, but at least it happened here and not laater. Look at moddernising industrries back at the Second World War stage, Brittain's industries were successful and strong, e.g.: Britain was dominant in its diversity in the car industry. Right now,, Britainn barely has value in the car industry at all

The United Nations helmets saying "UN" and "DEUX" lol

I appreciate the attention to detail whenever you depict rifles in these animations.

Britain should have gotten the hint that they had gone too far when their most loyal allies like Canada, Australia and NZ all refused to support them for the first time ever.
