Today we're going I'm going to be going over the absolutely insane historical story of Trebitsch Lincoln, the man with 100 names. Born as an Orthodox Jew, he became the ultimate con-artist and among other things was a Presbyterian missionary, Anglican priest, British politician, fraudulent businessman, coup conspirator, violent nationalist, German monarchist, ww2 German collaborator, Czech spy, Buddhist monk, Cult leader, Japanese propogandist, and of course Dalai Lama. His story is one of the most interesting in history. My main source is The Secret Lives of Trebitsch Lincoln by Bernard Wasserstein. #documentary #education #historical #history #ww2 #story #judaism #jewish #china #hungary #buddhism
