Okay, - - Let's for peace, hope for peace, - Let's for peace, - Let's for peace. (peace, peace, peace, peace...) - Let's for peace, (peace, peace, peace, peace!) - Let's for peace, - Let's for peace. Oh, john, let's for peace For our children, For our country, For our world, For our future, Oh, john, let's for peace, hope for peace. - Peace, peace, Let's for peace. Oh, - Peace. Good morning meine und herren, this is the peace call.
John: we're really doing is sending out a message to the world, mainly to the Youth, the youth or anybody really that's interested in protesting for Peace, or against any form of violence and we say everybody's getting a Bit heavy or bit intellectual about it. talking about peace, but nobody's anything about it, except for a few people, and the things are, the grosvenor Square marches in london. the end product of it was newspaper stories about Riots and fightings. and we did the bed in amsterdam and the bag piece in vienna Just to give people an idea, that many ways of protest and this is one of them. And anybody could grow their hair for peace or give up a week of their for Peace or sit in a bag for peace, protest against peace anyway, but cause we Think that peace is only got by peaceful methods and to fight the establishment With their own is no good, because they always win and they'd been winning For of years. they know how to play the game violence and it's easier for Them when they can recognise you and shoot you. they don't know how to Humour, humour and that's our message really.
Questioner: what do you think was the success in history, about 300 years?
haven't a clue.
Yoko: well, maybe it's still yet to happen, you see. that's why trying to do it. in Other words, by very, very peaceful to bring peace, you know instead of Peace violence, that's what we're trying to do and if we succeed in that, That's the biggest happening yet in the 300 years, because it's never been done and Nobody has really tried it, you see. and that's we're trying to do.
what would you do in case of a war?
John: how do you
Questioner: what would you do immediately if you wake up in the morning, read the newspapers and they would tell you england is in war with france?
I'd die of fright.
Yoko: I don't think should happen. you talk as if something's going to happen Aside of us. we are all in this you see. we are all in the same society and in the World and everything happens to us is our responsibility, you know. like any Violence going in the world is just a symbol of all the violent atmosphere is in The world, you see and when the nazism the jewish people that wasn't only Hitler, who did it or germany, who did it, but just a symbol of in the world Who had the feeling for the persecution of jews, you see. so we everything, so That's not happen, if there's war suddenly, that's our fault, you know.
Questioner: so what do you think about the behaviour of austrian and during The world war? don't you think that they're a little bit more responsible Than the
no, not particularly.
Yoko: no, not particularly. no. the whole world, if the whole was really Aware of it and if the journalists and the communication media of those were Really aware of responsibility as well and reported everything correct, you Know, well, which is almost impossible, I'm sure, but as as possible and if the Whole world was aware of their responsibility, it could been stopped, I'm sure.
John: well, we know that britain and a few other waited quite a long time Before made any decision about what to do. I'm not quite sure of the facts, you Know, but czechoslovakia and things like that, they could've stopped it earlier, But they waited until it's on the doorstep, you know, it involves their money, territory.
Questioner: there's a special type of petition is vetoed by special contents ..
no. I don't think so because...
Questioner: hitler could have been by the french, for instance.
John: every nation have a prototype. I think I was out talking to one of the Austrian tv guys. I said can you name me one country which hasn't sort of Raped the world and he said actually was the only one that didn't attack Anybody else. they were always on the side, I don't know whether that's True.
Qustioner: but were silent at the wrong moment...
John: okay, that's bad, I agree that silence is bad. but I mean isn't one european Country that hasn't had it's in one way or the other, including britain, in what They did to and south africa, you know.
Yoko: so let's so back to the future, you know. so that's why we're here. we to Talk to the young people all over the world, because those are the people Who are going to be the next generation. they're going to be the world, you Know, and we just want to say we are with them. we're not preaching or like That. we want to be with them and we're with them and in our way, we're that we're open to all invitations or suggestions or anything to work For the world peace, you see, and we're it now, in our own way, which we think is The best for us and also the young have to realise that this is just as bad as Before the second world war or right in the middle of it, you know, everything, All the violence that is happening in the world now are our and if we Don't realise it and immediately start something, action, you know, it's going To be bad, you know. and it will be exactly you said. one morning, we find in the Newspaper, that the whole world is going to disappear, you know.
I agree with you, but don't you see, I mean, it's a fact that by through your Behaviour, I think okay, but for a lot of people, through your behaviour, to get Suspicious. they don't think this can be correct, people sitting under a Tablecloth against wars. they don't think...
Yoko: okay, they criticise us, you know, and if they want to criticise us, okay, Go ahead, and they do it in their own way, but do something, you know.
so everybody should throw out his part of hitler out of his soul, then?
John: yes, yes, we all have it in us. in a way, we're we want peace and we're Staying in bed for peace, but I'm as as the next man, and I'm sure yoko is just as Violent just as well. we're violent people, you know. I prefer when I'm non- Violent. I me friends when they're non-violent. it just makes for easier living And if we have to have violence, let's it, you know. I don't know how, you know, there's other people can out how to channel it, or Give somewhere to play and kill each other or something. but I don't want to be in their violence. I prefer to live in peace, you know.
Yoko: all you need is courage, you know. you can just go out in the now and Take off all your and just say peace you know and you'll be in the news you See. just courage and if everybody gets and of course they would, Because they would all right maybe this is a little bit embarrassing thing to do, But look at john and yoko doing worse, so I can do it, you know. all we're trying to do, you see.
