Investigating into today’s power structure in the UK and the
role played by the British monarchy, this eye-opening
documentary reveals the grossly disproportionate and
undemocratic wealth and power of Britain’s Royal Family.
The programmer educates the viewers about the sheer wealth of
Britain’s unelected monarchy and trails through the various
assets and sources of income to which a random family, born into
a historic mesh of multiracial kings and queens, unfairly
believe they are entitled.
The UK with its dark and scattered history of political
struggles has become the playground of monarchic power and
influence. The documentary exposes all the main instruments of
wealth of the British monarchy and provides clear commentary as
to why Britain
😈👹🎩🍌🏴‍☠ʊ

may be the most contradictory democracy in the world.

SNIPPET:
The first genetic study of medieval human remains believed to be
Crusaders confirms that warriors travelled from western Europe
to the near East, where they mixed and had families with local
people, and died together in battle. Researchers from the
Wellcome Sanger Institute and their collaborators analysed
ancient DNA extracted from nine skeletons dating back to the
13th century, which were discovered in a burial pit in Sidon,
Lebanon.
The results, published this month in the American Journal of
Human Genetics, confirm that while the Crusaders mixed with
local people and recruited them to their cause, their genetic
presence in the region was short-lived.
“We know that Richard the Lionheart went to fight in the
Crusades, but we don’t know much about the ordinary soldiers who
lived and died there, and these ancient samples give us insights
into that,” says senior author Chris Tyler-Smith, a genetics
researcher at the Wellcome Sanger Institute.
“Our findings give us an unprecedented view of the ancestry of
the people who fought in the Crusader army. And it wasn’t just
Europeans,” says first author Marc Haber, also of the Wellcome
Sanger Institute. “We see this exceptional genetic diversity in
the Near East during medieval times, with Europeans, Near
Easterners, and mixed individuals fighting in the Crusades and
living and dying side by side.”
Archaeological evidence suggested that 25 individuals whose
remains were found in a burial pit near a Crusader castle near
Sidon, Lebanon. All of those found in the pit were male and had
been violently killed during battle, as seen by the blunt force
injuries to their skulls and other bones. Their bodies had been
disposed of in the pit and burned.
Nearby, an isolated skull was found. The head may have been used
as a projectile that was catapulted into the opposition’s camp
to spread disease and slash morale, illustrating the brutality
of the battles. Clues found alongside the skeletons in the pit,
such as European shoe buckles, a coin and carbon-14 dating
analysis, led archaeologists to believe the human remains were
Crusaders.
Based on that, Tyler-Smith, Haber, and their colleagues
conducted genetic analyses of the remains and were able to
sequence the DNA of nine Crusaders. The team report that three
individuals were Europeans of diverse origins, including Spain
and Sardinia, four were near Easterners who had been recruited
to the fight, and two individuals had mixed genetic ancestry,
suggesting they were the descendants of mixed relationships
between Crusaders and near Easterners.

Throughout history, other massive human migrations–like the
movement of the Mongols through Asia under Genghis Khan and the
arrival of colonial Iberians in South America–have fundamentally
reshaped the genetic makeup of those regions. But the authors
theorize that the Crusaders’ influence was likely shorter-lived
because the Crusaders’ genetic traces are insignificant in
people living in Lebanon today. “They made big efforts to expel
them, and succeeded after a couple of hundred years,” says
Tyler-Smith.
This ancient DNA can tell us things about history that modern
DNA can’t. In fact, when the researchers sequenced the DNA of
people living in Lebanon 2,000 years ago during the Roman
period, they found that today’s Lebanese population is actually
more genetically similar to the Roman Lebanese.
“If you look at the genetics of people who lived during the
Roman period and the genetics of people who are living there
today, you would think that there was just this continuity. You
would think that nothing happened between the Roman period and
today, and you would miss that for a certain period of time the
population of Lebanon included Europeans and people with mixed
ancestry,” says Haber.
These findings indicate that there may be other major events in
human history that don’t show up in the DNA of people living
today. And if those events aren’t as well-documented as the
Crusades, we simply might not know about them. “Our findings
suggest that it’s worthwhile looking at ancient DNA even from
periods when it seems like not that much was going on
genetically. Our history may be full of these transient pulses
of genetic mixing that disappear without a trace,” says
Tyler-Smith.
That the researchers were able to sequence and interpret the
nine Crusaders’ DNA at all was also surprising.

and controversial attorney Roy Cohn was a power broker in the
rough and tumble world of New York City business and politics.
Senator Joseph R. McCarthy’s top counsel during
investigations into Communist activities in the 1950s, Cohn is
also known for being Donald Trump’s former personal
lawyer, fixer and mentor.</p> <p>Focusing on key periods of
his life, and drawing on extensive, newly unearthed archival
material, a new documentary on Cohn’s life will debut on
HBO in 2019. Director Ivy Meeropol (<i>Indian Point</i>, <i>Heir
to an Execution: A Granddaughter’s Story</i>) spent much
of her life feeling both repelled and fascinated by the man who
prosecuted her grandparents, Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, in what
became known as the “atomic spies” case; Cohn
obtained their convictions in court and then insisted on their
executions.</p> <p>The currently untitled film features
recently discovered audiotapes of candid discussions between
Cohn and journalist Peter Manso, recorded at the height of
Cohn’s career. With a lens on Cohn’s family,
friends, colleagues, employees and lovers, as well as those
targeted by him, it includes his time in Provincetown,
Massachusetts, where he shared a house with Manso and Norman
Mailer, and was considerably more open about his sexuality than
in other settings.</p> <p>Playwright Tony Kushner, whose
Pulitzer Prize- and Tony-winning play<i> Angels in
America</i>features Cohn as a main character, and actor Nathan
Lane, who starred in it as Cohn, also provide interviews, with
Lane giving insights into how Cohn wielded power through
invective and innuendo.</p> <p>The documentary was directed
and produced by Ivy Meeropol; producers, Julie Goldman,
Christopher Clements and Carolyn Hepburn; co-producer, Peter
Manso; director of photography, Dan Gold; editor, Anne Alvergue.
For HBO: executive producers, Nancy Abraham and Lisa
Heller.</p> </div> </div> </div> </section>[/htm

This clip from a 1 hour PBS
television documentary I made called " How Hitler Lost the War."
The film takes a unique point of view. Rather than talking
about who won the war, my colleagues and I explored what Hitler
did that helped lose Germany the war. Although it happened so
long ago, it is still a frightening story. Some of the
interviews I conducted in this segment were fascinating to me
and I hope they are to you as well.
