Sermon from Addis Ababa

Sad-eyed Emperor Haile Selassie preached a little sermon:

"Mussolini, who did not hesitate to use poisonous gas through Badoglio against defenseless people . . . should certainly not be permitted to end his days in safe retirement. . . . Ethiopia is less interested in vengeance for the past than in justice for the future. . . . Much more important . . . [is] the building and maintaining of international institutions that will prevent the rise of political bullies trampling on the rights of small nations."
