13
00:00:53,127 --> 00:00:55,527
Speaker 2: The death toll of civilians in this war is a

14
00:00:55,607 --> 00:00:59,287

Speaker 1: on social media that Israel's strikes have had horrific and

38
00:02:19,767 --> 00:02:23,607
Speaker 1: unacceptable consequences. The events of the past twenty four hours,

39
00:02:23,687 --> 00:02:27,047
Speaker 1: underscoring that we must see a humanitarian cease fire now

40
00:02:27,287 --> 00:02:31,007
Speaker 1: so that civilians can be protected. She reiterated that Australia

41
00:02:31,047 --> 00:02:33,887

42
00:02:33,927 --> 00:02:36,847
Speaker 1: its operation in Rafa and called for Hamas to release

43
00:02:36,847 --> 00:02:40,007

Speaker 1: the October seven terror attack, telling the designated terror group

45
00:02:43,687 --> 00:02:47,487
Speaker 1: to stop using Palestinian civilians as human shields. More than

46
00:02:47,527 --> 00:02:49,647
Speaker 1: half of the forty five people killed in the air

47
00:02:49,687 --> 00:02:53,567
Speaker 1: striker women, children and the elderly. That number predicted to rise,

48
00:02:53,647 --> 00:02:57,847

53
00:03:09,127 --> 00:03:12,327
Speaker 1: with the accusation, telling those present that she still didn't

54
00:03:12,327 --> 00:03:14,447
Speaker 1: even know exactly where the nine year old had been

55
00:03:14,487 --> 00:03:17,727
Speaker 1: shot until that very moment. Miss Mutton was in a

56
00:03:17,767 --> 00:03:20,207
Speaker 1: relationship with a thirty three year old man at the time,

57
00:03:20,407 --> 00:03:23,527
Speaker 1: who was himself standing trial for the schoolgirl's death. He

58
00:03:23,607 --> 00:03:27,687
Speaker 1: claims he witnessed miss Muttin shoot the girl. Italian media

59
00:03:27,727 --> 00:03:30,887
Speaker 1: are reporting that the Pope used a highly derogatory word

60
00:03:30,927 --> 00:03:35,087
Speaker 1: towards the LGBTQI community, as he stands firm on gay

61
00:03:35,127 --> 00:03:38,647
Speaker 1: people not being allowed to become priests. The Pope reportedly

62
00:03:38,767 --> 00:03:42,287
Speaker 1: used the F word in relation to seminaries or priesthood colleges,

63
00:03:42,487 --> 00:03:45,127
Speaker 1: where he says they are already full of them. Pope

64
00:03:45,167 --> 00:03:48,287
Speaker 1: Francis has been credited with leading the Roman Catholic Church

65
00:03:48,327 --> 00:03:52,247
Speaker 1: into taking a more welcoming approach to the LGBTQR community,

66
00:03:52,567 --> 00:03:55,527
Speaker 1: famously saying back in twenty thirteen that if a person

67
00:03:55,727 --> 00:03:58,647
Speaker 1: is gay and has goodwill, who am I to judge?

68
00:03:58,927 --> 00:04:01,687
Speaker 1: Last year, he also allowed priests to bless members of

69
00:04:01,727 --> 00:04:06,527
Speaker 1: same sex couples, triggering substantial conservative backlash. The alleged use

70
00:04:06,567 --> 00:04:08,447
Speaker 1: of the F word is said to have happened on

71
00:04:08,527 --> 00:04:11,727
Speaker 1: May twenty, when the Italian Bishop's Conference opened a four

72
00:04:11,807 --> 00:04:15,127
Speaker 1: day assembly with a non public meeting. The members of

73
00:04:15,287 --> 00:04:18,687
Speaker 1: ABBA say they still don't fully understand the reason their

74
00:04:18,767 --> 00:04:21,767
Speaker 1: music lives on and is still so loved by so many.

75
00:04:22,167 --> 00:04:25,447
Speaker 1: Bjorn and Benny took questions from a celebrity audience including

76
00:04:25,527 --> 00:04:29,047
Speaker 1: Joanna Lumley, Rosamond Pike and Rick Astley ahead of Monday

77
00:04:29,127 --> 00:04:32,487

78
00:04:32,607 --> 00:04:35,287
Speaker 1: Abba Voyage, which has been playing for two years in

79
00:04:35,367 --> 00:04:38,807
Speaker 1: London and features avatars of the four band members performing

80
00:04:38,847 --> 00:04:42,607
Speaker 1: their greatest hits. Reflecting on the band's impact, Beyond said

81
00:04:42,687 --> 00:04:45,727
Speaker 1: it was very hard to grasp emotionally that they wrote

82
00:04:45,767 --> 00:04:48,047
Speaker 1: these little songs and gave rise to where they are

83
00:04:48,087 --> 00:04:51,607
Speaker 1: now still touching millions of people. Benny says he has

84
00:04:51,727 --> 00:04:54,087
Speaker 1: no idea what makes people want to listen to music

85
00:04:54,127 --> 00:04:57,447
Speaker 1: that was done fifty, forty or thirty years ago, Beyond saying,

86
00:04:57,527 --> 00:04:59,647
Speaker 1: if you said something like this would happen in fifty

87
00:04:59,687 --> 00:05:03,727
Speaker 1: years time, it would be preposterous. That's your evening news headlines.

88
00:05:03,807 --> 00:05:06,807
Speaker 1: On Thursday's episode of The Quickie, We're looking into where

89
00:05:06,847 --> 00:05:10,647
Speaker 1: Palestinian refugees are supposed to go now that the places

90
00:05:10,647 --> 00:05:12,727
Speaker 1: that have been told are safe to shelter are also

91
00:05:12,887 --> 00:05:15,927
Speaker 1: under fire, and who can stop this attack on RAFA

92
00:05:16,007 --> 00:05:19,047
Speaker 1: if even the international courts have been unable to do so.

93
