Second Italo Ethiopian War Documentary (last 21 minutes of footage missing)

[@injured_fullback]

My great grandfather fought in this campaign. He respected the Ethiopians a lot and used say they fought like lions. He used to recount of the horror he went through over there. Lack of food, firing squads, violent hand to hand combat, and all of the dead bodies caused by artillery and the gas. He thought it was a meaningless war and had nothing but respect for the Ethiopians but had no choice. It was a dark period in my country’s history but it’s important that it won’t be forgotten, and to respect the fallen on both sides. 🇪🇹 🇮🇹

I know this documentary and the narration doesn't end on 9th of May 1936 at Mussolini's triumphant speech from the Palazzo Venezia, claiming that 'Italy finally has its Empire' as this version shows. The full movie shows when Ethiopian sovereignty is restored with the Emperor's triumphant flying of the Ethiopian tri-color in Addis on the same day 5 years later (9th of May 1941). I saw this documentary 2 decades ago from a VHS video loaned from the British Council, but I still remember the final words of the narrator, "Mussolini never saw Ethiopia." This version doesn't end that way, and it seems deliberate.

The planes conducting several hit and runs on Italian Military Depots.

The Italians were cruel European colonizers who committed war crimes against the people of East Africa in general and Ethiopia in particular.However,the Abyssinians were and still are very ruthless black colonizers who took part in the scramble for Africa.It would have been much better for many people in Ethiopia to have been colonized by the Italians than to be conquered and colonized by the primitive and backward empire of Abyssinia.Just ask the Ogadenis and Oromos. The Europeans went home and all of those African colonies became free and independent countries but we are still stuck with the perpetual misery of Abyssinia!

[@AMR_k400]

@I.B. Adam The oromo are barbaric nomads who settled in Ethiopia in the 1600s and onward during the ethioadal war ,both adal and Ethiopia were weakened so the borders were wide open, the oromos genocided the biggest agricultural group in east africa (called harla) who were semito-cushitic speakers like their harari and Eastern gurage who mostly lived in central and eastern ethiopia , gafat another semitic speakers who lived in western ethiopia and maya a cushitic chritsian/pagan tribe that were affiliated with the ethiopian empire who lived in pockets from sidama to tana so oromos dont have any moral highground to speak of infact they are occupying land that doesnt belong to them and they need to return to kenya (their home land) And for ogaden a 2nd-4th century axumite inscription mentions areas in ogaden like hawd,.. as part of their territory the inscription includes accurate description of the areas geography , ogaden was a tributary state to the emirate of harar (harar is ethnically habesha but muslim) so when minilik took harar he considered ogaden a part of harar and took it as well, plus there wasnt really any authentic Somali national state when ethiopia took ogaden so on what basis does somalia claim that ethiopia took territory from it,when somalia wasnt even a state when ogaden was annexed if u are referring to the british giving back the areas taken from ethiopia by the italians in ww2 and given to the somali part of their territory, that doesnt make sense since ethiopia had it before ww2 even before ww1 ethiopia had it at the times of minilik so claims made in this regard are utter bullcrap and only support colonialists like f@sc1st italy and their evil agenda to weak ethiopia

@Frida Khalo Ethiopia has the oldest and purest religious traditions including one of the oldest versions of the Bible. Her heritage is envied by the nations which is why fascist Italy was aroused to attack Ethiopia so that they could erase the true history and proclaim the pope to be the vicar of Christ because the Vatican understands the significance of the Solomonic Dynasty. The Ethiopian Empire is also located in the strategic "Horn of Africa" and Italy was seeking redemption after their loss at the Battle of Adowa in 1896 which secured Ethiopia's sovereignty.

I can see in the video why Ethiopia is defeated in this second Italo - Ethiopian War of aggression. I believe Haile Selassie sees it too. Instead of taking the time to organize themselves and their army they still resort to old ways of fighting war, guerrilla's method of warfare while Italy is possibly working on ways of defeating the African nation, by beefing up their army and training them for even a bigger war in Europe. However, Europeans during colonial era are biased and very brutish and make sure they occupy Africa by all means possible, even if it takes eliminating all the people through genocide. The League of Nations is the most biased when it comes to this particular war where the most important nations of the body supported the Italian invasion while few nations like Mexico, China, New Zealand, etc recognised the rights of the Ethiopian people. It is shame some African nations like Egypt, Somaliland, Eritrea and Libya have to fight on the side of the Italian. In the past Egypt even tries to invade and take over Ethiopia in its conquest of neighbouring lands and it fails abysmally to accomplish that. I sympathise with the Ethiopians for being the people who deserve not to be massacred by the so called civilised people from far away land but more savage in nature than the people they called savages. After all it is clear Ethiopia is destined not to be colonised in any way like the other Africans nations and remained so till today. Ethiopia is a pride to Africans.

And of course the "wikileaks" of the times revealed that Britain and France made a secret pact to "give" Ethiopia to Italy..."give" A country fully functioning with people they were going to "give" it, like other places that will remain nameless that the British "gave" to others and war cannot end...."Until the philosophy..."

Ethiopians was a world power alongside Rome, Persia and China. Even they were in Venice 600 years ago getting along with Italians. Ethiopia fell from it's high position due to different factors but the citizens weren't considered less civilized then Europeans until the colonial period brought a change in attitude.

[@JahRastafari89]

Michael Getchaew It seems as though the documentary ends as soon as the Italians took Addis Ababa. What the movie didn't document was the fact that His Majesty continued to submit evidence to the League to show that the conquest wasn't complete and that the Italians eventually lost the war. "As a result of their rapid advance with the help of airplanes and poison gas, the Italians took Addis Ababa on May 5th, 1936, but the Ethiopians were never conquered. The resistance continued unabated, His Majesty while in exile submitted evidence to the League time and again to indicate the incompleteness of Mussolini's boast of the conquest of the country. Indeed, the civil administration of the Emperor's Government was actively maintained in a substantial part of the Empire. That this fact was recognized could be gleaned from Lord Cecil's words in the Lords when British recognition of Mussolini's loot raised high protest in both Houses of the British Parliament. He said: "When you come to recognize a new Government over territory which it did not have before, two things have usually been thought essential, in the first place that the conquest of that territory has been complete; and secondly that it has lasted a sufficient time to make tolerably certain that the conquest is going to be permanent. I see no evidence that either one or other of these conditions have been fulfilled in this case." (Silver Jubilee p. 28).

How does The Duke Of The Abruzzi fit into this historical narrative?

[@JahRastafari89]

"From this point of view, i.e. thinking of a political opponent, my most emotional and moving meeting was with Haile Selassie. We must remember that it was we Italians who waged war against the Negus Neghesti, who invaded his country, and who my uncle Amedeo was later Viceroy of Ethiopia. But I knew that once he returned to the throne of Judah, Haile Selassie had spoken of Amedeo of Aosta as 'a man of generous goodness and enlightened wisdom' and that he had behaved towards Italians with intelligence and understanding. I wanted to go and visit the places where my uncle had fought and had been taken prisoner. The Amba Alagi above all. In 1968, the publisher Rusconi organized a trip for me with the journalist Alfredo Ferruzza and I remembered that in 1930 the Negus, who had just been appointed emperor, that is to say became Negus Neghesti, King of Kings, had received the Collar of the Annunziata from Vittorio Emanuele III at the hands of the duke of the Abruzzi. The relationship between the two Royal Houses had taken place through an Aosta. So I write a letter to the emperor of Ethiopia; being a Collare dell'Annunziata, I address it to the 'Imperial Majesty and dear cousin'. The answer comes to me immediately through the Ethiopian ambassador in Rome: Haile Selassie let me know that it will be a real joy for him to welcome the Duke of Aosta in Addis Ababa. At this point the visit became official and the Foreign Minister of the time, Pietro Nenni, took care to give me some excellent advice on how to deal with the Emperor of Ethiopia and some of the most important ras to further improve relations between the two countries: certain scars caused by the war had not yet healed completely... Finally I leave with my wife Claudia and two friends to Massawa. Here the Emperor awaits us, in the same building where Uncle Amedeo also lived, a beautiful white villa by the sea. We arrive there escorted by eight motorcyclists. At the entrance, an entire company presents me with arms: more than I would have had if there had still been a monarchy in Italy. The Emperor welcomes us halfway down the access stairway and not at the top, a homage that he had not even paid to Queen Elizabeth. We give him the three bows required by protocol, and my wife curtsies her. We enter a large room and we speak in French as I was advised to do. There were various ras and the Negus tells me: 'His uncle, Duke Amedeo of Aosta, was a great gentleman who only did good for my country. Do you think that from the Queen of Sheba to today my empire had never been totally pacified as when the Duke of Aosta was its Viceroy? Here the Italians have left excellent memories: roads, schools, bridges, hospitals that we still use.' He never spoke of the war and the losses it cost his people. Before leaving me, he asked me with a smile: 'But are you a prince like those of the European royal families who do nothing from morning to night, or do you work?'. Then he wanted me to continue the journey on his personal plane. I visited all the main cities of Ethiopia, then on foot I climbed up to Amba Alagi which is 3411 meters high, to be exact. I saw Haile Selassie a second time in 1970 when, on a road trip from Cape Town to the North Cape, I passed through Addis Ababa. This time the Negus Neghesti received me in a less official way: in the private drawing room of the Imperial Palace; he was surrounded by innumerable chihuahuas, those tiny dogs: they were everywhere: on the sofa, on the armchairs, on the carpets. The following year, being in Italy, the Emperor let me know that he would like to see me. We agree for Venice, at the Danieli hotel. Here I give him a commemorative plaque of the first non-stop flight from Rome to Addis Ababa made by General Zappetta with a single-engine Nardi Fiat. We are alone and he thanks me in Italian. To my astonished reaction he, with an amused air, lowering his voice, explains to me: 'I speak your language, but nobody knows it and nobody has to know it. You see, I often had to parley with the Italians and with the interpreter's excuse, first I listened to the speeches they made to me, then, while the interpreter translated, I had time to meditate on the answer. Not only that but I also had the possibility to check if my answer was translated correctly'. He loved Dante very much and knew many passages of the Divine Comedy by heart. Referring to certain difficulties I had with some people, he told me: 'Don't worry about them but just look and pass'. I asked him why he sent so many students abroad, even to the Soviet Union, knowing full well that many of them, by associating with enemies of his regime, would turn against him. And he replied: 'I know, but I still think I'm doing the right thing: young people absolutely must know the world, open their minds to face the 2000s. We cannot stand still, we must look to the future. So even if one day all this becomes a boomerang, it falls back on me... it doesn't matter: Ethiopia must progress'. Everything that Haile Selassie had to suffer later, if it wasn't really provoked, was at least encouraged by the Ethiopian students who returned to their homeland." di Savoia-Aosta, Amadeo.
