The Creation of Israel | Welcome to Season Eight!

The Creation of Israel | Welcome to Season Eight!

One year ago, Hamas terrorists attacked Israel and killed or captured well over a thousand of its citizens. In response, the Israeli government launched its largest military campaign since 1973 and killed thousands in the Gaza Strip. The war has since expanded with Israel battling Iranian-backed proxy militias in Lebanon and defending itself from missile and drone attacks across the country. This season is called "Good Idea, Bad Idea." We are going to discuss the long-term results--positive and negative--of some of history's most important people and events. We promise to cover these topics openly and honestly, ask questions, and give you context to find answers. Through these episodes and discussions, we hope to bring you the facts of history and, as always, allow you to draw your own conclusions.

During the summer break, the 15-Minute History podcast team are republishing some of their favorite episodes. This episode and discussion on Thomas Crapper originally aired on February 22, 2021. __ The concept of moving water from one place to the other has been on the minds of humans since their creation. Conversely, the desire to move soiled water away automatically has – at times – been considered equally important. The means by which this could be done has evolved as civilizations have come and gone. In all of them, a basic pattern emerged in plumbing conception and construction: the path, the pipe, and the seal. Join us as we teach you a brief history of plumbing, its evolution through the ages, and the influence of Thomas Crapper on plumbing technology and sanitation practices.

The Nuremberg Trials | "Say I Slew Them Not" (Republish)

During the summer break, the 15-Minute History podcast team are republishing some of their favorite episodes. This episode and discussion on the Nuremberg Trials originally aired on April 19, 2021. __ Twenty-one men sat in the dock awaiting their fate. Once the leaders of Europe's mightiest nation who had strutted proudly across the world stage arrogantly proclaiming the supremacy of the Aryan race, their faces remained defiant as their empire lay in ruins outside. Some showed open contempt for the victors who now sat in judgment over them. Others sat quietly, their faces frozen and their eyes fixed forward. Some even looked surprised at having been charged with crimes against humanity, since they were "just following orders." Their leader, now dead, had commanded them to murder millions, and as good Germans, they had done just that. Now, with the world's most terrible war at an end, they would face justice. Join us as we teach you about the Nuremberg Trials, the monsters who faced justice, and the radicalism that corrupted an entire nation.
