It's World War One
1:07:01
There's thirteen million killed
1:07:03
It's all because the militaries
of both alliances believed
1:07:05
that they were so highly
attuned to one another's movements
1:07:08
and dispositions, they could
predict one another's intentions
1:07:11
But all their theories
were based on the last war
1:07:13
And the world
and technology had changed
1:07:15
and those lessons
were no longer valid
1:07:18
But it was all they knew
1:07:19
so the orders went out
1:07:22
couldn't be rescinded
1:07:26
The man in the field, his family
at home, they couldn't even tell
1:07:29
the reasons
why their lives were being destroyed
1:07:35
But why couldn't they stop it?
1:07:37
What could they have done?
1:07:40
Here we are 50 years later
1:07:43
Say one of their ships
resists the inspection
1:07:46
and we shoot out its rudder
1:07:48
and board
1:07:50
They shoot down
one of our planes in response
1:07:54
So we bomb their anti-aircraft sites
in response to that
1:07:58
They attack Berlin
1:08:02
So we invade Cuba
1:08:07
And they fire their missiles
