1. "Myriad" is just a fancy word for "many," so does not need to be preceded by "a" or followed by "of." You wouldn't say "… suffering from a many of issues .." If you must use "myriad," it's just "… suffering from myriad issues …"

2. What about ancient proxy wars? Judah payed Assyria to fight Aram and Israel. Persia payed to keep the Greek city states fighting. Though not ancient, the 30 years war was initially a proxy war prior to France officially getting involved.

3. There is a proxy war going on between two of my neighbours, I'm not getting involved!

4. The American Revolutionary War, by definition, was not a proxy war; despite what many historians (probably British subjects) have come to believe. Also, can a United Nations sanctioned military intervention be considered to be a "proxy action"? And, if so, on who's behalf. Also the "Vietnam War" (America hasn't actually declared a war since WWII, and only five wars in it's history) was supported by the United States, South Korea, the Philippines, Australia, Thailand and other anti-communist allies (New Zealand included (their first time fighting without the British)) ; the British and French basically passed the baton to the US after operation Masterdom. Of course we know the Korean conflict was a UN action (in which approx 100,000 British troops participated). So, you can take anything of a political nature that Simon and his cohorts purport to be decidedly biased based on Millennial naivety, and blatantly anti – American sentiment (why?). Don't call us next time Germany acts up again.

5. Do you also spam Brainfood with adverts?

6. You should do a segment on The Kurdish People's & their history with Turkey. Also the fact that Turkey with Russia's help is pulling the same genocide tactics against the Kurd's as they did the Armenians.

7. Disclaimer: No rich people were harmed in the making of these wars.

8. Thank you so much for this one. I requested it a while back. I'm glad to see it made. This video is everything I hoped for and more.

   Some thoughts: First, another war that at least deserved honorable mention was the American Civil War. It didn't start out a proxy, but it sort of became one (or at the very least tried to).

   Second, it's fascinating how the majority of the proxy wars (from Korea to present) all find their roots in WW2. Ironically, the confusing quagmire created by the recent Middle Eastern wars is reminiscent of the conditions leading to WW1.

   On a side note, I highly recommend anyone reading this comment try the book "The Fate Of Empires" by John Glubb. It's available for free as a PDF online. Very insightful, yet brief.

9. The french and Indian war was a proxy war also

10. The War on Terror is a proxy war between Idiocy and Stupidity.

11. Nothing's as it seems.

12. Most of these are still very contentious and timely spots. This was a nice overview by team Whistler. Well, except for the US support of the Kurds.

13. The US funded IS in Syria and Libya deliberately to Topple regimes that weren’t playing ball…not like them

14. While it's a fair argument to say the the revolutionary war was a proxy war. Wouldn't it be a better, given the participating powers and allies, to argue that it was a world war?

15. Technically peace can't be declared in Korea because war was never declared. It was a police action.

16. Your biases shows even in phrasing. All people are equal in democracy but some more so. Soviet Azerbaijan was with large margin bigger than Soviet Kurdistan also held big population centers. The way you phrase it: Soviets supported Kurds and also established Azerbaijan sov rep is not wrong but misleading. Also? you go home say; honey I got paid today and also I won lottery? that makes sense to you? George Carlin says 'when people have common interests they do not need to meet to do conspiracy'. Western media is very efficient in propaganda even so more than governments they call autocracy.

17. If only the Japanese never attacked Pearl Harbor….

18. The Syrian 'civil war' wasn't a result of the Arab Spring, so much as the CIA pumping millions into opposition groups to ferment sectarian conflict. Its all out there of you care to look beyond mainstream media.

19. What about northern Ireland ? Stuck up Brits fighting to control a small lump of land that costs them more then they're eu membership

20. And in under two weeks, Drumpfilthinskin manages to make your last segment out of date! 😲

21. Alright Johnny English I'll say this a win is a win. Lol

22. The vote in Ukraine wasn't a mock vote.

23. The American revolution Was the biggest stab in the back of all time. After helping to fight the French the American changed sides

24. Should be titled 10 American proxy wars.

25. this seems to have been recorded some time ago

26. So… America are the problem

27. Sorry, but the US is funding ISIS.

28. I'm grateful I don't live in the middle east.

29. Could have been more interesting…… Angola independence wars, Chaco war, Congo world wars… No proxy wars in the middle ages or antiquity?? Still love the channel and your work!
