back in 1896, its inhabitants were able to defeat the italian colonists and defend their independence. since then, rome craved for revenge for the humiliating defeat. in the morning of october, 3, 1935. without any announcement, the fascists attacked ethiopia and bombarded it most severely. ethiopian armed forces fought courageously, but the brutality of the italians knew no bounds. they use not only massive bombing attacks on civilians, but also chemical weapons, toxic gases. this changed the course of the war. as a result of the occupation of ethiopia by the fascists, 760000 people were killed. the capture of the african state was committed with europe's tacit approval. britain and france recognized the annexation, giving the green light to further fascist expansion in the world and bathing the

way for the outbreak of world war 2. ah, [000:00:00;00] ah ah

ah . he did for many ukrainians and for many orthodox christians, this easter week has been quite a road to calvary. the ukrainian authorities are openly attacking the orthodox church, but in church services shut and down orthodox places of worship, and engaging in the kind of persecution the ukraine has not seen for a very long time. why is it happening? where does this lead to make sense of it all? i am going to day, bye, metropolitan lay on it. of kalynne patriarchal exile of africa. your grace, thank you very much for joining us. let me start by asking you, how did we even get to this point? why are we regressing back to the times of religion persecution? good afternoon, and thank you for inviting me. the subject you brought up is as poignant as it is

tragic. we're having this conversation on hoti week, the final week of great lent, it's tuesday and with every passing day, the developments in ukraine produce more and more misery. he pains us as these are our brothers and sisters the other day. i posted a video on my telegram channel, showing 2 elderly women, one of them very old and using a walking stick, making their way towards the church, through a crowd of nazis. young people chanting down with mosque vite priests, the frenzy states. these people were in there wasn't just unnatural. it was outright satanic, demonic. yes. the demonic fervor and a vitriolic hate for everything russian, everything orthodox, to understand the cause of all of this. i believe we have to look deeper into the past before the developments of these recent years in my minds, we are dealing with the aftermath of certain ideas that have not been completely

stamped out in the 19 forties fifties and 19 sixty's. it is the ukrainian a band to write ideology which managed to survive in a latent form, slowly, poisoning the minds and memories of gen rations in its now sprouting and bearing fruit. i do not think that one or 2 or even 3 years would have been enough time to rewrite the minds of young men and women of thousands of people. yes, that's the unfortunate reality. we are saying, priests physically assaulted temples, is sees. and as we all know, this persecution is directed against the ukrainian orthodox church. what a tragic period. this is truly. and yet here we are witnessing the acute phase of this tragedy unfold on holy week. we will continue to monitor the situation as it develops. but my wish is that it's stopped, as i say,

it's the west is also adding fuel to the fire. all these terrible things are happening with that tacit consent. they are outright ignoring this genocide and i do believe the word is warranted. here. we can trace it all back to the, to thousands, even with the axis phase happening since 2014, when a genocide was a king population of ukraine, and now it's got so bad that people a willingly destroying everything used to bind or to peoples together. i for one don't think they will succeed as if trying to prove your point that a representative of the state department stated yesterday that the u. s. is not aware of any prosecution of the ukrainian orthodox church that they know nothing about it and that they see nothing wrong with it. rushes foreign ministry has already issued a response. so my question is, why on earth are they turn in blind eye to the soul? after all, the west is always so vocal about religious freedoms. every year they issue reports of freedom of religion, world wide denouncing russia for allegedly refuse an old faiths and denominations

that the right to practice their religion. how then can they ignore such violations in ukraine? it is like they say might makes right? the u. s. and it satel, it's the so called collective west have long since lost touch with reality. even now they refused to let go of their perceived victory in the cold war. for russia, the legal success of the soviet union, things were tough in the 1990s. and in the years that followed, but we managed to get our act together and now we stand firm a stronger, more mature nation. we now have a clear sense of dignity and self worth. and i feel we should continue to instill these ideas in our people and defend them for our own sake above all. because the things happening in ukraine, the trends we see across western nations,

that something which clearly must not be allowed into russia. we russians have already had our fair share of turmoil in godlessness. and let me tell you, it was an ugly experience. and one more thing, no country on earth has unleashed mall was and conflicts killing millions of people than the united states and its vassals in their 280 plus year history. what can we say about yugoslavia then? what can we say about a rock? libya, syria, i can keep this list going. vietnam, any afghanistan, i can go on forever listing countries that the usa and the nato block invaded uninvited, wreaking havoc and killing peaceful people. just recently, there was an anniversary of the invasion and a rock where the civilian population was exterminated. and no one was held

accountable. as for what was happening in soviet times when the baby c, c, n, and voice of america was saying that that when no religious freedoms in the u. s. s . are indeed those freedoms were absent. there were threats from crucial to show the last priest on t v. we remember those threats very well. the church had to survive and it did survive after the renee. so it's of the 19 ninety's. it lives now and has a voice of its own. what voice america has now we can see very well with that is a real battle going on. while we call it a special military operation, where our brothers and sisters are fighting now in the historical sense. it is a war, a war of civilizations. the west is trying to teach us alien values that destroy humans, destroy them as the creation of god. these values are alien, unacceptable to us. since childhood, we were taught

a completely different doctrine regarding saving our souls regarding morality, decency, and attitude towards each other. the west though, is trying to paint a whole different picture for us while friends do as you wish. it's up to you to be leading entire nations into the fires of hell, probably wishing them extinction. he talk about gender issues, lack of maternity, parent one and parent to, as the holy patriarch said in his recent sermon and a completely unacceptable for a normal person understanding of social life and so on. no, we don't need values like these. we live by our own principles and our own values. it is over these civilizational values that a war is being what testers are being injured. i've recently seen a video of a poor woman being thrown by

a special forces officer over his thigh. she landed on the ashfield and i don't know if she even survived the injury she received. now let's go back to the vatican . first off, the vatican has not sent anything official regarding this east at cease fire. mister pest cough confirmed that nothing official has been achieved. the vatican implies that it has a certain point of contact in russia, which allegedly is always in touch and ready for a friendly chat over the phone. i personally may have friendly chats with whom ever i want, but that's not the official position or an addition. if we look at the vatican objectively, and the vatican would like us to see it as objective, will say that it has been receiving the so called victims of russian aggression and the wives insistence of the as of fighters. this ultra nationalist battalion is famous for its killings and sadistic violence and deserves to face an international

tribunal together with other units of the same nature. the pope receives them, gives them a very warm welcome drinks tea with them. it gives them a pat on the shoulder, pledges his support for ukrainians, and so on. i gained what i'm saying. here is my personal position. some of my colleagues may disagree with me, but i don't see the pope as a peacemaker. not in the least spit peacemakers. don't act like that. why doesn't the pope talk to the italian prime minister, for example? why won't he try to get her to stop arming ukraine? he doesn't do that. why is he maniacally trying to push his advice or suggestions on to us that do not really have substance? that's my take going back to the issue of ukraine and believers and right now around easter time, there have been denied access to many holy places. we've seen outrages developing

us around the key features clara with monastery possessions, been confiscated for the needs of the orthodox church of ukraine. the same fate has befallen all the places of worship and keith, which have been handed over to the key of back church authorities. what do you think they were trying to accomplish by those crude methods? was the long term objective. and is there hope that these holy places will be returned to the rightful owners and will be accessible for churchgoers at some point? i don't doubt for a 2nd that it will go back to where it should be. the lord will say to it, the justice may triumph. we've already talked about the persecution of the followers of the ukrainian orthodox church. what corridors of shame they've been forced to go fruits like some ukrainian officials before them when they were being subjected to the so called lustration, or vetting sooner or later,

this will end. it will end with the defeat of the satanist regime. it will ends with the return of the key of picturesque lover and other places of worship which have been illegally seized. and people will once again be able to pray that unfortunately, many of them have been destroyed. i wrote about that's in my telegram channel. when it comes to a show down, there's no guarantee that we won't see something like what nazi germany did when it blew up in its high historic districts. as its troops retreated in europe, towns were destroyed. thousands upon thousands of people were killed. god save us from this massive loss of civilian life. but everything we're seeing now is pointing in this direction. crowds mostly young people and minus a being fred nazi ideology and these people the age. notwithstanding that you just go ahead and demolish everything in their way. however,

sooner or later they will be stopped for god to cannot be marked as people have faith, we believe in the power of the passion and resurrection of christ. that's why we started our conversation by mentioning that it's wholly choose day to day. and we can project this story onto ukraine. as i always say, darkness will always be followed by light, the light of jesus resurrection as we are getting closer to the whole easter day, which is the main holiday for millions of believers in russia, ukraine, and around the world. what would you say to them in these, trying and challenging times for the orthodox church? was your words of advice for your flock? i'd like to wish our brothers and sisters patience, wherever they are, whatever corner of the world they might be in. we all will celebrate the resurrection of jesus christ. we all in one way or another. be one with god. we're

going through hard times right now. so each one of us should share this east to joy as best he can with those who can't experience it fully. according to the news i read yesterday, all churches will be closed for worshippers in ukraine. one way or another, our lord will rise one way or another. he will bring joy to this world for another year. this joy of east to celebration should help us preserve peace. and most importantly, hope in our souls in these turbulent times. thank you for these warm wishes and a very interesting conversation. thank you. ah, ah, during the 2nd world war in nazi occupied, poland, virginia was

a farming region today. it's part of ukraine. between 19431945 members of the ukranian insurgent army, led by step on bendara plaza, could thousands of poles and valeria in a diabolical ethnic cleansing process. the murders were particularly horrific and brutal villages were burned and property. looted the bellini. a massacre is without doubt, one of the bloodiest episodes in polish ukrainian history. why are ukrainian politicians still reluctant to talk about these events? how to modern day ukraine and poland view this tragedy of the past? and why does the memory of belinda still divide people? i look forward to talking to you all. that technology should work for people. a robot must obey the orders given by human beings except where such orders at conflict with the 1st law show your identification. we should be very careful about on personal intelligence,

and the point obviously is to great trust or rather than fear. i would like to take on various shabury with artificial intelligence, real summoning with obama protect its own existence with ah, them, william furniture with them put, begin to receive celia was this because they get, is willing to give you the career in new you you owe for july 14th, so i know i'm reaching a ship tosto you, if you did a single west valley road, you looked at the la sheila, it's a wishing i cim. i'm a new modem. but the woman lumala moved from william with starting from bush not to

not submit any amount. they're glad to blame me for what the company that i was just i did. i used one consider low scholarly, imo. i did some written, i'll study to the coast and brought you suicide finish. this is just a fraction of when it comes when you don't write my blue origin, a shirt and trimming. yes. another little bit of it election. yes. ah well, memory loss is unusual. forgetfulness, a form of memory loss is inability to recall. past events with can be general or concern,

some specific events solely. in some cases, the memory laws can extend back decades start an intensive course of memory recovery on our t. the finish wartime photograph archive has very few photos of the concentration camps. i'd in those few, it seems as if prisoners move behind the bob white of their own accord are very content with their lives. here, for instance, a photo from one of the pictures of votes camps inscribed today's sunday a day off in the lodge labour camp. female workers have lined up in the yard to show, but

a mobile van that is just arrived. trade is briscoe and the customers are happy
