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