Lest We Forget...
Interviewer: If you were a younger man, and the circumstances were the same again, as they were in 1939, would you do what you did again?
Yes.
Interviewer: Can you tell me why?
Because I've seen too much which is going on... I've, we've...one figured 1914-18 war, and they said that's the last of the world wars. There'd be no more. 39-45, we had the same thing again. In the last ten years I don't think there's a place on earth that people are not being killed. Genocide. And I blame the governments. I mean I don't want to be a politician but I blame the governments. The America, United Nations giving all these dictators, or these people who took over a country, took the money they got from the governments, put it in their own pockets and let their own people starve. Uganda, Bolivia, all over North Africa. Even in Europe. To me that's...to me this is what...people have never learnt their lesson. And this to me is the worst thing that's happening now. Don't give them money, give them food. And even that's wrong because they'll take the food and put it on the black market. But there must be stipulations on it. They have to account for everything, and this is the worst thing that's ever happened. You read it everyday in the paper. All these boy...all these country dictators there (inaudible) or something like that. Idi Amin from Uganda, he lives in Liberia. Billions of dollars salted away. Other pol..other leaders of countries taking all the money. The people are starving, they're dying...they're dying in the streets. Sudan, Ethiopia, what for? Did we fight a war to stop this? Or, just as an example of if you plead and beg long enough you can become millionaires. But, your answer your question, yes I would have done it again.
