Three Documentaries

.
Three interesting documentaries.

The first two describe the fatal miscalculations that led to the end of French and British imperial/colonial aspirations in Asia and Africa respectively. The third one is about the realpolitik behind Egypt's recovery of the Sinai peninsula.


Battlefield Vietnam - Dien Bien Phu (Episode 1/6)
