:20:01
Like in a nonaligned conference
in Algeria...

:20:05
I was not feeling well.
I did not speak.

:20:08
But 15 minutes
before the conference closed,

:20:12
I was brought to come and give a speech.
:20:15
I gave very good speech,
:20:18
including Castro broke relationship
with Israel after my speech.

:20:21
[Narrator]
Telegram sent to Mr. Kurt Waldheim,

:20:23
permanent secretary
of the United Nations:

:20:28
"Hitler
and all the German people...

:20:31
"knew that the Israelis are not people
who work in the interest of the world,

:20:35
"and that is why they burnt
six millionJews alive with gas...

:20:37
on the soil of Germany."
:20:42
This telegram was sent the day
after the Munich killings.

:20:45
Some years before,
General Amin had undergone,

:20:48
as had other Ugandans,
paratroop training in Israel.

:20:52
But I'm trained
as a paratrooper in Israel.

:20:55
But I have got a very good brain.
:20:58
And even General Dayan knows
that I am very good field officer.

:21:01
[Man]
You knew Dayan very well?

:21:03
I know him and...
:21:08
I know him.
He has been my friend.

:21:10
He has been giving me dinner,
lunch in his house.

:21:12
If I go to Israel,
I used to stay with Dayan.

:21:14
He brings air force,
band playing for me.

:21:17
We stay together.
But I must make absolutely truth.

:21:21
The reason why
I chased them from Uganda...

:21:24
was because of the economy of Uganda.
:21:28
Uganda was going to be bankrupt.
:21:32
That is the reason why
I chased away the Israelis.

:21:34
- You were friends with Golda Meir?
- Yes.

:21:36
Because she used to give me
very good entertainment...

:21:39
when I go to Israel.
:21:43
[Man]
Then you changed completely...

:21:47
from an Israeli alliance
to the Arab alliance.

:21:49
I changed from Israeli alliance...
:21:52
because Israeli are criminals...
:21:56
and they are not trusted people.
:21:59
They don't tell the world the truth.
