Good meine damen und herren, this is the peace call.
John: what we're really doing is sending out a message to the world, to the Youth, especially the or anybody really that's interested in protesting for Peace, or protesting any form of violence and we say everybody's getting a Bit heavy or bit intellectual about it. talking about peace, but nobody's Doing anything about it, except for a few people, and the are, the grosvenor Square marches in london. the end product of it was just newspaper stories and fightings. and we did the bed event in amsterdam and the bag piece in vienna Just to give people an idea, that there's many ways of protest and is one of them. And anybody grow their hair for peace or give up a week of their holiday for Peace or sit in a bag for peace, protest against anyway, but peacefully cause we Think that peace is only got by 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 the game violence and it's easier for Them when they can recognise you and shoot you. they don't how to handle Humour, peaceful humour and our message really.
Questioner: do you think was the biggest success in history, about 300 years?
haven't a clue.
Yoko: well, it's still yet to happen, you see. that's why we're trying to do it. in Other words, by very, very peaceful methods to bring peace, you instead of Peace through violence, that's what trying to do and if we succeed in that, That's the biggest happening yet in the last 300 years, because it's been done and Nobody has really tried it, you see. and that's what we're to do.
Questioner: would you do in case of a war?
how do you mean?
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 that should happen. you 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 and everything that happens to us is our responsibility, you know. like any Violence going in the world is a symbol of all the violent atmosphere that is in The world, you see and when the persecuted 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 for the persecution of jews, you see. so we share 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 austrian and germans The second world don't you think that they're a little bit more responsible the others?
no, not particularly.
Yoko: no, not particularly. no. the world, if the whole world was really Aware of it and if the journalists and the communication media of those days aware of their responsibility as well and reported everything correct, you Know, well, which is impossible, I'm sure, but as much 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 other counties waited quite a long Before they made any about what to do. I'm not quite sure of the facts, you Know, but after czechoslovakia and things like that, could've stopped it earlier, But they waited until it's on the doorstep, you know, until it their money, territory.
Questioner: there's a special type of that is vetoed by special contents ..
John: no. I don't so because...
Questioner: hitler could been voted by the french, for instance.
John: nation will have a prototype. I think I was out talking to one of the Austrian tv guys. I said can you name me one european country hasn't sort of Raped the world and he said austria was the only one that didn't attack Anybody else. they were always on the defensive side, I don't know that's True.
Qustioner: but they were silent at the moment...
John: okay, that's bad, I agree that is bad. but I mean there isn't one european Country that hasn't had it's in one way or the other, including britain, in what They did to india and africa, you know.
Yoko: so let's so back to the future, you know. so why we're here. we want to Talk mainly to the young people all over the world, because are the people Who are going to be the next generation. going to be the next world, you Know, and we just want to say we are with them. we're not preaching or anything That. we want to be with them and with them and in our way, we're just Announcing that we're open to all invitations or suggestions or anything to 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 people have to realise that this is as bad as Before the second war or right in the middle of it, you know, that everything, All the violence that is in the world now are our responsibility and if we Don't really 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 whole is going to disappear, you know.
Questioner: I agree with you, but don't you see, I mean, it's a that by through 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, sitting under a protesting 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.
Questioner: so everybody should throw out his part of hitler out of his soul,
John: yes, yes, we all it in us. in a way, we're saying we want peace and we're Staying in bed for peace, but I'm as violent as the next man, and I'm sure yoko is as Violent just as well. we're violent people, you know. I prefer myself I'm non- Violent. I prefer me when they're non-violent. it just makes for easier living And if we have to have violence, channel it, you know. I know how, you know, there's other people can work out how to channel it, or Give them to play and kill each other or something. but I don't want to be Involved in their violence. I to live in peace, you know.
