The Untold History of The United States

This is the first episode of Oliver Stone's Showtime program "The Untold History of the United States." It is an in-depth view on the politics domestic and foreign of the twentieth century. It also shows how the United States was changed by War World Two and how the United States changed the world after War World Two. Mostly it brushes aside the propaganda that American believes about itself during World War Two (especially when dealing with the Russians and Japanese).
For a long time I've been telling people that dropping "the Bomb" on Japan was useless but this series showed me not only how useless it was but also how it was a pathetic attempt to bully the Russians. If you like history, like truth, like to see the past without the propaganda then watch this series.


I will attempt to find another source for this video. Showtime took it off their youtube account.
