:46:00
we can neutralize
that possibility and alter the future?
:46:03
- Yes, Mr President, l do.
- Do you also believe that we should?
:46:08
Given the power to alter the future,
have we the right to use it?
:46:12
l don't know.
:46:14
l've wrestled with this,
Mr President, and l don't know.
:46:17
How many futures are there?
:46:19
Which future has God, ifthere is a God,
chosen for man's destiny?
:46:24
lf l urge the destruction ofthese two apes,
am l defying God's will or obeying it?
:46:29
- Am l His enemy or His instrument?
- An assassin would say the latter.
:46:34
- Do you approve of assassination?
- We condoned the attempted assassination
:46:38
of Hitler because he was evil.
:46:40
Would we have approved killing him
in babyhood when he was innocent,
:46:44
or killing his mother,
or slaughtering his remote ancestors?
:46:49
We have no proofthat these apes are evil.
:46:51
- There are very strong indications.
- Such as?
:46:54
The discrepancies in their answers
to the commission
:46:57
- suggest that, if properly interrogated...
- Are you suggesting that they weren't?
:47:02
- Unprofessionally.
- You want it professional?
:47:05
- The full works.
- Tell that to the commission.
:47:08
l'll abide by their findings.
:47:12
Having convened in secret session
at the request ofthe president,
:47:16
the commission makes
these interim recommendations.
:47:19
One: the public should be
informed that the apes,
:47:22
after their arduous space voyage and
the fatigue arising from its publicity,
:47:27
are to be afforded rest in a location whose
identity will not be divulged to the public.
:47:32
Two: since, however, there is
justifiable cause for suspecting
:47:37
that they have withheld
vital information from us,
:47:41
the ape-onauts willin fact
be escortedbyDrLewis Dixon
:47:44
to the installation known as Camp 11, held
there in his care forinterrogation by the ClA
:47:50
under the guidance andsupervision
ofDr Otto Hasslein.
