When you have three hours to spare. I set the time index to skip the opening 30 seconds of blather.

100 BC. Rome was still a republic then.

History has much to teach us.
History repeats itself, it is the same but different.

“History repeats itself”
That's perfectly said. Without the obligatory Jive “for those who don't learn from it"

It is also said “History doesn’t repeat itself, but it does rhyme”.

Well, Rome was never a republic. The Senate was made up of men who served when they felt it was time for them to serve, and they were from about 35 families. Elected offices were for the hoi-polloi, and had little power. The permanent chief executive arose because Rome had conquered non-Roman citizens, and ruled from one end of the Med to the other, and from the Rhine to the margin of the Sahara. And the Senatorial families were akin to mafia crime families, lawless and corrupt.

I’ve had the vid running for a good while, in the next room, and it’s been fascinating, but I’ve missed at least one subtitled part where the interviewee was speaking in German. Hell, I barely speak English.

Israel rejected the King that God sent to them, Jesus Christ the true Messiah: “But they cried out, Away with him, away with him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Shall I crucify your King? The chief priests answered, We have no king but Caesar” (John 19:15).
From that day the Jew has been under Caesar, except that Caesar now wears a mitre and carries a staff and claims to be the “vicar of Christ.”
The Roman empire never ceased to exist . . . it just changed address.

No one ever totally conquered the Roman Empire...at least not yet.

In approximately 1,007 years from now a single Jewish male on a white horse will destroy them and the nations that rise up against Israel in a single day, leaving a river of blood 75 miles wide.

“Well, Rome was never a republic.”
I see. They invented the term, “res publica”, (which means ‘public affairs’) but were never one.
It’ s not that they were not organized to tend to their public affairs, (a republic) it’s that over time the way we take care of public affairs has changed.
Even today the term republic has different meanings. Our republic is quite different than an Islamic Republic such as Iran.
