1:06:00
We have been asked to talk to you,
Mr. Ben Canaan.

1:06:03
-Do you have time?
-Of course.

1:06:07
Excuse me.
1:06:21
We have made a decision among the mothers.
1:06:24
To send the children back to Karaolos now
will show weakness.

1:06:27
The British will see that we are
not serious people aboard this ship.

1:06:30
It doesn't matter what the British think.
1:06:32
I cannot take the responsibility
for letting children starve to death.

1:06:36
We will take the responsibility.
1:06:38
We will not send them back,
and we will not go back with them.

1:06:41
I'm sorry, Mrs. Frankel.
The children must go back.

1:06:44
You go back if you want to with them.
Now, that's a Haganah order.

1:06:47
You're an important man,
Mr. Ari Ben Canaan, but you know nothing.

1:06:51
Look at these babies of mine.
Born behind barbed wire.

1:06:56
For the first time they don't have to
1:06:58
look out through a fence
like little animals.

1:07:00
They are free now, and nobody...
1:07:03
...no Englishman, no Haganah,
will ever lock them up again.

1:07:06
Look at Mrs. Hirschberg here.
1:07:08
Hers will be the first,
when she has no more milk to give.

1:07:12
-Tell him.
-I will not take him back to Karaolos.

1:07:16
He will go to Palestine with me,
or here on this ship, we will die together.

1:07:20
I will not take him back.
1:07:33
When are you going to stop this thing
and let them go?

1:07:35
Unfortunately, I can't answer that.
1:07:38
The affair's entirely
in the hands of London.

1:07:40
But you don't like what's going on.
You know how wrong it is.

1:07:43
Why don't you say so?
1:07:45
Why don't you make a
public statement about it?

1:07:47
I can't do that, Kitty. I'm a soldier.
1:07:50
I know you're a soldier,
but you're also a Jew...

1:07:53
...and all these people
out there are Jews, too.

1:07:56
I don't like to disappoint you,
but I'm not in any degree a Jew.
