A person 0:01:12.160 --> 0:01:16.840 who was demoralized is unable to assess true information. The 0:01:16.920 --> 0:01:22.520 facts tell nothing to him. 0:01:22.760 --> 0:01:27.560 Adamir Putin's former chief economic advisor, who had extensive access to. 0:01:27.520 --> 0:01:29.920 The Prussian president over the years, goes one on one 0:01:29.959 --> 0:01:30.960 with our Joe Khalil. 0:01:31.400 --> 0:01:35.479 How much of the population actually is exposed to what's 0:01:35.640 --> 0:01:36.959 really happening in your career? 0:01:37.920 --> 0:01:41.160 I would say up to seventy percent of the Russian 0:01:41.160 --> 0:01:45.039 population have been brainwashed, brainwashed completely. 0:01:45.360 --> 0:01:47.840 A few seventy percent, you think it's that high, it 0:01:48.120 --> 0:01:50.600 would be I would say conservativefest to. 0:01:50.560 --> 0:01:56.000 Make Jana Agaalakova was one of the stars of Russia's 0:01:56.080 --> 0:01:56.640 Channel one. 0:01:56.920 --> 0:02:01.520 Even now, when you're watching news in raw shirt, it's 0:02:01.560 --> 0:02:06.080 like two different planets. In one planet there is ruins 0:02:06.280 --> 0:02:11.799 and total disaster, death and tragedy. In another world it's 0:02:12.080 --> 0:02:17.639 Russian militaries that was cheered by local population with flowers, 0:02:18.160 --> 0:02:21.959 and this is only victories in these two worlds don't 0:02:22.000 --> 0:02:26.520 mix up. And it's blown my mind how they do it, 0:02:27.680 --> 0:02:30.440 how they brainwashed their population. 0:02:35.840 --> 0:02:36.679 To kill. 0:02:38.360 --> 0:02:42.320 Am really sorry, and how the. 0:02:47.680 --> 0:02:59.120 Guts knows. 0:03:05.440 --> 0:03:30.240 Busus Episode three, chapter six, the selection. 0:03:37.920 --> 0:03:40.120 There are not so many schools in Russia. It's like 0:03:40.160 --> 0:03:44.800 maybe only three. One were put and studied and sunk 0:03:44.840 --> 0:03:51.680 by the Petersburg another one in Moscow they would call 0:03:51.720 --> 0:03:57.800 it like former KIGB school FSB was basically like they 0:03:57.840 --> 0:04:04.000 renamed it. But my school, my academy, would be called 0:04:04.680 --> 0:04:07.440 the Academy of Military Investigation. 0:04:09.440 --> 0:04:12.040 How do you said in Russia, Oh, it's. 0:04:11.880 --> 0:04:17.320 Some academia or Probvilinian ministers of Nutrin deal recipe. 0:04:17.960 --> 0:04:19.280 What happens once you walk in. 0:04:20.960 --> 0:04:27.359 When I saw that huge gray color building, looking like 0:04:27.440 --> 0:04:32.279 all the Soviet Union buildings, where you cannot say a word, 0:04:32.440 --> 0:04:37.360 and you understand there is no chance you could leave 0:04:37.839 --> 0:04:41.240 a free life and have a free word, I just 0:04:41.279 --> 0:04:44.520 wanted to run away, but I couldn't say no, and 0:04:44.560 --> 0:04:47.400 I couldn't run away, and I had to go there. 0:04:48.480 --> 0:04:53.239 And I just kept myself together, and I stayed silent 0:04:54.000 --> 0:04:55.679 and just walked into that walls. 0:04:58.720 --> 0:05:01.440 Lea Rosa Is described ivan her first day of formal 0:05:01.480 --> 0:05:06.120 military training after her tragic internship. She was just eighteen 0:05:06.160 --> 0:05:06.640 at the time. 0:05:07.760 --> 0:05:14.040 When I saw these thick, gray, cold walls with portraits 0:05:14.080 --> 0:05:21.680 of that former officers or KGB agents, and I saw 0:05:21.760 --> 0:05:29.520 that cold faces of all my teachers and my classmates. 0:05:30.560 --> 0:05:35.320 There were no fun or there were no desire or 0:05:35.400 --> 0:05:41.680 like ambitions or dreams. There were really cold blooded machines 0:05:41.839 --> 0:05:42.960 or like zombie people. 0:05:45.040 --> 0:05:47.680 That first day at the academy would change the course 0:05:47.680 --> 0:05:51.359 of Eleah's life. But before we get to that, here's 0:05:51.400 --> 0:05:53.840 a little bit about the training of new recruits at 0:05:53.839 --> 0:05:55.279 a Russian military academy. 0:05:59.440 --> 0:06:04.000 First, of my whole lifestyle has been changed. I would 0:06:04.040 --> 0:06:07.240 wake up at four am because at six am you 0:06:07.520 --> 0:06:10.640 had to have a morning report that would give you 0:06:10.800 --> 0:06:16.320 a gender schedule, and you have to do marshing. From 0:06:16.400 --> 0:06:21.880 six am in the morning, we would listen this big 0:06:21.960 --> 0:06:28.800 words lecture about our country, that we have to protect 0:06:28.800 --> 0:06:33.920 the country. We have to be real patriot. V fought Nazi. 0:06:34.279 --> 0:06:37.160 We are the strongest country in the world. We have 0:06:37.279 --> 0:06:39.359 the strongest nationality. We are the. 0:06:40.960 --> 0:06:41.400 Purest. 0:06:42.279 --> 0:06:46.880 Nothing can be more powerful than us. You have to 0:06:46.920 --> 0:06:50.840 do exercises, you have to do jogging, you have to 0:06:50.920 --> 0:06:55.400 do shooting. They also had to do like cleaning and 0:06:55.720 --> 0:07:02.640 cooking four hundreds of people, and six pm it's again 0:07:02.920 --> 0:07:06.360 the report time, and again you have to do marching. 0:07:06.960 --> 0:07:11.360 And then sometimes homework would be so much so it 0:07:11.400 --> 0:07:15.240 would take till like two am or like one am. 0:07:15.680 --> 0:07:20.800 It was really off and it was always cold. I 0:07:20.840 --> 0:07:24.840 was so tired and exhausted because I slept only four hours. 0:07:25.800 --> 0:07:28.080 I ask Leah if she thinks that all the marching, 0:07:28.400 --> 0:07:31.200 the work, the lack of sleep, or not just about 0:07:31.240 --> 0:07:33.800 training but also about brainwashing. 0:07:34.800 --> 0:07:37.960 Well, yes, of course the whole system is like that, right. 0:07:38.320 --> 0:07:42.680 It's one of the important technique of manipulation. Where if 0:07:42.680 --> 0:07:47.160 you want to train someone, you have to exhaust this 0:07:47.320 --> 0:07:50.960 person with the physical activities so the brain becomes weak. 0:07:51.360 --> 0:07:53.960 And when the brain becomes weak, there you can plant 0:07:54.040 --> 0:08:01.440 seats built on patriotic romantic feeling like together we can 0:08:01.600 --> 0:08:02.760 fight the whole world. 0:08:04.360 --> 0:08:07.800 In case patriotism wasn't enough to inspire someone to die 0:08:07.800 --> 0:08:10.920 for their country, they were also financial incentives. 0:08:12.360 --> 0:08:14.640 So for example, if they would say, okay, so there 0:08:14.720 --> 0:08:19.119 is a war in Chichen, second campaign, So who wants 0:08:19.120 --> 0:08:20.760 to go there? Because if you go to the war, 0:08:20.840 --> 0:08:24.600 first of all, you have salary much higher than usual, 0:08:25.360 --> 0:08:30.440 you have better insurance, better benefits. If you will die, 0:08:30.520 --> 0:08:33.640 then your family will get so and so much money, 0:08:33.679 --> 0:08:39.240 which was higher than usual salary. People would risk their 0:08:39.280 --> 0:08:43.160 life because it was beneficial for their families and they 0:08:43.160 --> 0:08:44.040 would go to the war. 0:08:44.760 --> 0:08:45.920 It's still the same. 0:08:46.640 --> 0:08:49.600 As for leaving the military. Once you were there, you 0:08:49.640 --> 0:08:50.920 had to fulfill your duties. 0:08:52.000 --> 0:08:56.120 Once you're there, you cannot go back. You cannot just 0:08:56.200 --> 0:09:00.559 become civilian and said, Okay, I don't want to work 0:09:00.880 --> 0:09:04.440 in military anymore. I want just to be a human 0:09:04.520 --> 0:09:08.320 resource recruiter. You cannot do that. You know that once 0:09:08.400 --> 0:09:11.920 you're there, you have to be there till the rest 0:09:12.000 --> 0:09:12.520 of your life. 0:09:13.800 --> 0:09:17.360 In this toxic environment, the Leah's classmates competed with each 0:09:17.400 --> 0:09:20.839 other for favor, sometimes cruelly and savagely. 0:09:21.720 --> 0:09:26.560 I try to make friends, but after a few months 0:09:26.559 --> 0:09:29.760 I understood that wherever I would say to my girlfriends, 0:09:29.800 --> 0:09:33.920 they would talk to our teachers. So you couldn't even 0:09:34.840 --> 0:09:37.199 tell anyone's secrets or the way you think or. 0:09:37.120 --> 0:09:39.240 The way you feel. I had. 0:09:39.280 --> 0:09:43.160 Even my male classmates, they would call me bad names. 0:09:43.840 --> 0:09:47.280 Some of them try to put me down. You understand 0:09:47.280 --> 0:09:50.040 that you're there by yourself. You cannot have friends, You 0:09:50.040 --> 0:09:53.400 cannot rely on anyone. You know that every single one 0:09:53.480 --> 0:09:58.440 is your enemy. We say, if you live with wolves, 0:09:58.840 --> 0:10:19.840 you have to become one of wolves. 0:10:20.840 --> 0:10:24.000 So with this context, we now returned to Elia's first 0:10:24.080 --> 0:10:27.200 day at the academy. She was lined up for inspection 0:10:27.559 --> 0:10:30.600 with the rest of the new students, and that's when 0:10:30.600 --> 0:10:31.199 it all began. 0:10:33.280 --> 0:10:36.720 All of us we had to be outside, and I 0:10:36.800 --> 0:10:43.280 remember there was one of the most powerful teacher at 0:10:43.280 --> 0:10:47.280 that time, with the highest rank, and he particularly looked 0:10:47.320 --> 0:10:51.800 at every single girl there. And I was the only 0:10:51.840 --> 0:10:54.319 one who was eighteen years old. At the girls the 0:10:54.600 --> 0:10:58.199 la starting from twenty to twenty three, twenty five thirty. 0:10:58.240 --> 0:11:03.600 Even this high ranking commander, a Russian colonel, began whispering 0:11:03.600 --> 0:11:06.080 to a female officer and motioning to Aliyah. 0:11:07.760 --> 0:11:10.720 But I understood the talk about me because they looked 0:11:10.760 --> 0:11:13.320 at me and they discussed something I didn't know. 0:11:13.520 --> 0:11:15.959 Is it like bad or good? I didn't know anything. 0:11:17.160 --> 0:11:21.480 And then they also looked at some other girls. 0:11:22.320 --> 0:11:25.560 Soon after, Aliyah was pulled aside and told that she'd 0:11:25.600 --> 0:11:30.200 been selected to participate in a special program. This, of course, 0:11:30.520 --> 0:11:32.520 was not an optional program. 0:11:32.840 --> 0:11:38.440 I will be studying additional subjects together with other four 0:11:38.480 --> 0:11:43.200 girls every day after our main program. 0:11:43.800 --> 0:11:47.160 This additional coursework, as I'm sure you figured out, would 0:11:47.200 --> 0:11:50.640 train Aliyah in the art of seduction, the exchange of 0:11:50.679 --> 0:11:55.840 sexuality for secrets or lives. But what does it take 0:11:55.960 --> 0:11:59.560 for a woman raised conservatively with no dating experience to 0:11:59.600 --> 0:12:01.800 be willing to let this date use your body like this? 0:12:02.920 --> 0:12:05.480 It would take a lot more fear and a lot 0:12:05.520 --> 0:12:21.240 more brainwashing. Chapter seven, The Sacrifice. 0:12:24.679 --> 0:12:28.120 There are lots of things that are involved in persuasion 0:12:28.320 --> 0:12:36.600 every day. But when things become very stressful, and when 0:12:36.880 --> 0:12:43.400 the stimuli are controlled and there are very few other stimuli, 0:12:43.559 --> 0:12:46.960 other than what the perpetrator is trying to impose on you, 0:12:47.880 --> 0:12:52.559 and when you are sleep deprived, these are settings that 0:12:52.679 --> 0:12:56.800 make people very malleable, and you can see this in 0:12:57.280 --> 0:13:02.040 many of the brainwashing events in twentieth century. 0:13:02.080 --> 0:13:06.040 This is doctor Joel Dimsdale, a professor emeritus of psychology 0:13:06.240 --> 0:13:09.480 at the University of California, San Diego and the author 0:13:09.480 --> 0:13:13.160 of the book Dark Persuasion, A History of Brainwashing from 0:13:13.200 --> 0:13:17.439 Pavlov to Social Media. I tell doctor Dimsdale, what you 0:13:17.640 --> 0:13:21.160 just heard about Aliah's training regimen at the military academy 0:13:21.240 --> 0:13:23.079 meant to do this and sort of getting the party 0:13:23.080 --> 0:13:26.440 line fed to her every waking moment. Is that a 0:13:26.480 --> 0:13:27.600 form of what you're talking about. 0:13:28.120 --> 0:13:32.480 So when she has been isolated from her family and 0:13:32.640 --> 0:13:40.160 friends and only exposed to people who are constantly HARKing 0:13:40.480 --> 0:13:44.560 on this one view of what the world is like 0:13:44.679 --> 0:13:48.200 and what her task is, this begins to be a 0:13:48.240 --> 0:13:55.199 setup for coercive persuasion, even if it's against her best interest. 0:13:56.120 --> 0:13:58.640 Everything goes back to Pavlov at the. 0:13:58.880 --> 0:14:02.679 Doctor Dimsdale says, the modern history of brainwashing back to Russia, 0:14:03.240 --> 0:14:06.439 specifically the fact that the work of doctor Ivan Pavlov 0:14:06.720 --> 0:14:09.720 was taking place at the same time as the Russian Revolution. 0:14:11.360 --> 0:14:15.520 The odd thing in history is that, by virtue of 0:14:15.520 --> 0:14:21.840 his prominence, Lenin visited Pavlov and spent hours talking with Pavlov, 0:14:21.920 --> 0:14:27.160 asking him could Pavlov help Lenin remake the people of 0:14:27.200 --> 0:14:30.640 the Soviet Union so that they would be better communists. 0:14:31.200 --> 0:14:37.120 So the Soviets were always interested in behavior change, in 0:14:37.240 --> 0:14:40.640 trying to be as scientific as possible about it, and 0:14:40.800 --> 0:14:44.640 Pavlov was a perfect vehicle for exploring that. 0:14:45.920 --> 0:14:49.840 I asked doctor Dimsdale about the science of this behavioral change. 0:14:50.360 --> 0:14:53.600 What are the conditions that make this possible, not just 0:14:53.640 --> 0:14:57.120 for Aleah, but for anyone who's being reprogrammed to lay 0:14:57.120 --> 0:14:59.920 down their lives and their ethics for their country. 0:15:01.280 --> 0:15:03.800 If you had a checklist of how do you persuade 0:15:03.840 --> 0:15:09.920 people so that you can guarantee behaviors that there would 0:15:09.920 --> 0:15:14.640 be resistance to otherwise, that checklist would include number one. 0:15:14.920 --> 0:15:20.720 Isolate them away from contrary influences. Number two. Put them 0:15:20.760 --> 0:15:24.080 under a lot of stress. Number three. Deprive them of 0:15:24.120 --> 0:15:27.400 sleep so they're not thinking clearly. Number four, involve them 0:15:27.400 --> 0:15:30.840 in a group that hammers home certain messages repeatedly. 0:15:33.360 --> 0:15:36.600 We now know the steps that lead to brainwashing or 0:15:36.680 --> 0:15:39.680 course of persuasion, as doctor Ginsdale prefers to put it, 0:15:40.440 --> 0:15:44.400 but brainwashing for what Let's move forward to Russia in 0:15:44.440 --> 0:15:45.600 the twenty first century. 0:15:46.800 --> 0:15:48.960 War was central to the Putin regime. 0:15:49.720 --> 0:15:53.120 This is Ian Garner, a Russian historian and author of 0:15:53.120 --> 0:15:57.000 the book z Generation Into the Heart of Russia's Fascist youth. 0:15:57.400 --> 0:16:00.520 Right. We've seen that from the very first action Putin 0:16:00.600 --> 0:16:03.880 takes when he's in power, and where we start to 0:16:03.880 --> 0:16:06.640 see a real change is in what children are taught 0:16:06.960 --> 0:16:10.920 in the school. Children learn war poems, children start to 0:16:11.000 --> 0:16:13.560 dress up in military uniforms, so they start to be 0:16:13.640 --> 0:16:15.840 taught that war is a good thing. War is something 0:16:15.920 --> 0:16:19.080 we need to grow our society and become better people. 0:16:20.760 --> 0:16:24.760 Joining the army, becoming a part of this military machine 0:16:24.880 --> 0:16:29.120 in Russia is just a hugely respectable path. 0:16:30.280 --> 0:16:34.240 The propaganda that helps make this possible, Garner says, is 0:16:34.360 --> 0:16:38.640 history lessons, revised history lessons, just like the ones that 0:16:38.720 --> 0:16:40.480 Leah received during her training. 0:16:41.320 --> 0:16:43.240 This is not going to be lessons about real history. 0:16:43.280 --> 0:16:45.160 This is going to be the Russian version of history 0:16:45.760 --> 0:16:49.400 in which Russia is surrounded by enemies who are looking 0:16:49.440 --> 0:16:52.240 to destroy it, and Russia has saved the world, and 0:16:52.280 --> 0:16:54.680 you're going to be a hero if you sacrifice yourself 0:16:55.200 --> 0:16:58.400 just like those folks Stalingrads eighty years ago. 0:16:59.000 --> 0:17:02.040 Stalingrad, as he may recall, is the deadly World War 0:17:02.080 --> 0:17:05.520 two battle that Leah's grandfather served in, and the monument 0:17:05.560 --> 0:17:08.200 there with his name on it is practically a shrine 0:17:08.359 --> 0:17:09.240 for Leah's family. 0:17:11.119 --> 0:17:15.240 There is this phrase by Siedel's up and Russian thank 0:17:15.320 --> 0:17:19.200 you granddad for bringing us victory. And what they're talking 0:17:19.200 --> 0:17:21.720 about is World War two. And all of this comes 0:17:21.760 --> 0:17:25.280 down the myth of the Second World War as the 0:17:25.320 --> 0:17:30.960 moment when a generation of grandfathers sacrificed themselves to save 0:17:31.040 --> 0:17:34.760 the world and to save Russia, to save humanity from 0:17:34.760 --> 0:17:38.080 the Nazi threat. Thus we respect them. It's a kind 0:17:38.119 --> 0:17:44.080 of ancestor worship. The sacrifice is coded that the sacrifice, 0:17:44.119 --> 0:17:47.359 the death, has to happen. It's a bit like the 0:17:47.440 --> 0:17:51.119 Christian myth right it's Jesus. Jesus has to die to 0:17:51.160 --> 0:17:55.200 save humanity. Russian soldiers have to die, the country has 0:17:55.280 --> 0:17:57.800 to suffer so that it can be birth than you. 0:17:59.119 --> 0:18:02.680 Russia's President Vladimir Putin is in Volga Grat formerly known 0:18:02.720 --> 0:18:06.600 as Stalingrad, to commemorate the eightieth anniversary of the Soviet 0:18:06.680 --> 0:18:10.520 victory over German forces at the Battle of Stalingrad. He 0:18:10.600 --> 0:18:14.040 later spoke at an event where he criticized Germany for 0:18:14.200 --> 0:18:18.000 helping to arm Ukraine. He said, Russia is once again 0:18:18.280 --> 0:18:22.240 threatened by Germany. This is his latest attempt to compare 0:18:22.320 --> 0:18:26.080 Russia's war against Ukraine to the Soviet victory over Nazi 0:18:26.119 --> 0:18:27.680 Germany in World War Two. 0:18:28.320 --> 0:18:33.440 Russian news, Russian education, and especially Russian social media, Gardner explains, 0:18:33.760 --> 0:18:37.280 have turned into an actual indoctrination program, teaching not just 0:18:37.320 --> 0:18:40.919 a warlike way of thinking, but actual military skills to 0:18:40.960 --> 0:18:41.600 the youth. 0:18:42.840 --> 0:18:46.280 Because they're so desperately rushed to get them to the front. 0:18:46.960 --> 0:18:50.520 It is giving that training to children today and they 0:18:50.560 --> 0:18:51.960 will be ready tomorrow. 0:18:51.600 --> 0:18:54.879 To fund And at what age does that training start? 0:18:55.960 --> 0:18:56.800 Six years old? 0:18:58.720 --> 0:19:01.560 Wow, it's interesting again because her trains are from her 0:19:01.640 --> 0:19:03.720 dad at I think age six or seven. 0:19:04.040 --> 0:19:10.719 Yeah, So her experience then was exceptional and unusual. But 0:19:10.800 --> 0:19:15.199 now that experience is being not just institutionalized and formalized 0:19:15.200 --> 0:19:17.840 by this state, it's also being held up as the 0:19:17.960 --> 0:19:20.000 ideal of what a young child can be. 0:19:35.760 --> 0:19:46.600 Chapter eight, Death of a Patriot. We return now to 0:19:46.640 --> 0:19:50.920 Eliah's first day at the military academy. Selected out of 0:19:50.960 --> 0:19:53.840 the lineup along with four other women, she was told 0:19:53.920 --> 0:19:56.840 she'd been chosen to participate in a special, top secret 0:19:56.840 --> 0:20:01.159 program to serve her country. A few hours later, the 0:20:01.200 --> 0:20:03.720 top commander at the academy, the colonel who'd chosen her 0:20:03.760 --> 0:20:06.720 from the lineup, called her into his office. 0:20:06.880 --> 0:20:14.280 After a few hours, I was called to my teacher office. 0:20:14.840 --> 0:20:20.399 So I came there and he closed the door. 0:20:22.200 --> 0:20:26.200 And I did respect him a lot, because he was 0:20:26.320 --> 0:20:29.639 much older than me that time. He was forty eight 0:20:30.280 --> 0:20:35.160 and I was eighteen, and I was very innocent, as 0:20:35.160 --> 0:20:36.880 I said, like I never kissed any man. 0:20:38.440 --> 0:20:40.679 As a Leah tells the story, you may hear some 0:20:40.800 --> 0:20:44.000 laughter here and there, but note that there's nothing funny 0:20:44.000 --> 0:20:46.840 about this. There are topics that bring up so much 0:20:46.880 --> 0:20:50.320 trauma and are so uncomfortable to discuss that sometimes we 0:20:50.440 --> 0:20:52.640 laugh in order to avoid the deep pain that these 0:20:52.640 --> 0:20:57.320 events bring up. In an often cited research paper, if 0:20:57.320 --> 0:21:01.440 I didn't laugh, I'd cry, doctor Kathleen Hand further explains 0:21:01.720 --> 0:21:05.000 that quote laughter creates a sense of relief, usually from 0:21:05.080 --> 0:21:09.320 stress both mentally and physically. That's giving way to a 0:21:09.400 --> 0:21:13.080 sense of hope listener discretion is advised. 0:21:14.640 --> 0:21:18.160 And I looked at him and I asked him like hello, 0:21:18.200 --> 0:21:22.479 like you know, like, yes, sir, you were calling for me, 0:21:22.680 --> 0:21:29.080 so I'm here. And he was wearing his uniform, bit 0:21:29.200 --> 0:21:35.600 medals and everything, looking so sophisticated and so powerful like 0:21:35.960 --> 0:21:39.760 my dad when he was wearing uniform who was respected that. 0:21:42.440 --> 0:21:46.400 He asked me, like, what do you really expect from 0:21:46.400 --> 0:21:50.840 this education? And I said, well, you know my story. 0:21:50.880 --> 0:21:54.480 You know whose daughter am I and I am here 0:21:54.560 --> 0:21:58.639 to follow my dad's path and I'm ready to study 0:21:58.640 --> 0:22:01.600 and learn anything. And he asked me, are you ready 0:22:01.640 --> 0:22:06.280 to do everything for your country? I said yes, sir, 0:22:06.960 --> 0:22:09.840 are you real patriot? And I said yes, sir. I 0:22:09.920 --> 0:22:13.000 was raised by my dad to protect my country, my people, 0:22:13.160 --> 0:22:16.760 and I'm ready to give, like to do everything for 0:22:16.800 --> 0:22:19.639 my country. And he asked me like, are you ready 0:22:19.680 --> 0:22:24.879 to do everything? Are you ready to give your life 0:22:25.240 --> 0:22:31.400 for your country? And I said yes, sir, certainly, of course. 0:22:31.440 --> 0:22:33.720 I was trained by my dad and I love my 0:22:33.760 --> 0:22:39.280 country and I love my people. And then he came 0:22:39.280 --> 0:22:44.000 closer to me and he said, then suck my cock. 0:22:47.280 --> 0:22:52.240 I was like sorry, what I just couldn't even understand 0:22:52.240 --> 0:22:54.800 what did he ask me? And I was sitting at 0:22:54.840 --> 0:22:57.199 the chair and he came closer to me, and I 0:22:57.320 --> 0:23:01.240 was my heart was right in front of his. 0:23:06.080 --> 0:23:07.399 That part, so I was. 0:23:08.640 --> 0:23:10.679 I didn't know what to do, and he came so 0:23:10.840 --> 0:23:14.000 close that I couldn't really just stand up and leave. 0:23:17.640 --> 0:23:19.720 I just had like one thing in my head that 0:23:20.640 --> 0:23:23.720 wait a minute, he knows that who is my dad, 0:23:24.359 --> 0:23:27.240 and yet he just asked me to suck his cock, Like, 0:23:27.320 --> 0:23:30.119 how is that possible? I thought that the name of 0:23:30.160 --> 0:23:33.640 my dad will protect me from this kind of stuff, 0:23:36.320 --> 0:23:38.360 and he kind of like he almost like he read 0:23:38.400 --> 0:23:41.960 my mind, and he said, yes, I know who is 0:23:42.000 --> 0:23:46.000 your father, and you know that I have much higher 0:23:46.040 --> 0:23:50.200 ring than your dad. So everything depends from my word. 0:23:50.920 --> 0:23:55.840 And if you want to study here and graduate with 0:23:56.000 --> 0:23:59.600 no problem and have a good job, then you have 0:23:59.680 --> 0:24:02.840 to do what I say. And if you want, I'll 0:24:02.880 --> 0:24:06.600 make sure your life will become hell here and you 0:24:06.640 --> 0:24:10.760 cannot just drop off because of your dad. And I'll 0:24:10.800 --> 0:24:12.680 make sure you will have a lot of the mirrits 0:24:12.720 --> 0:24:17.040 with a lot of duty and hard work outside cleaning 0:24:17.080 --> 0:24:21.720 toilets and cleaning garden and just be a bully here. 0:24:21.920 --> 0:24:23.120 What do you prefer. 0:24:25.480 --> 0:24:26.800 And he opened his. 0:24:28.720 --> 0:24:34.960 Zip and he took his spinnis off just in front 0:24:35.000 --> 0:24:39.199 of my mouth, and he said, like, suck it. 0:24:39.440 --> 0:24:40.520 What are you waiting for. 0:24:42.280 --> 0:24:44.240 At the moment, I were thinking, all right, so I 0:24:44.280 --> 0:24:47.959 cannot do anything bad to him right now. I cannot 0:24:47.960 --> 0:24:51.199 bite it right even though I'm on greenside from this 0:24:51.359 --> 0:24:55.600 man for doing this to me right now, to disrespect 0:24:55.600 --> 0:25:01.960 my father, who disrespect my principles, my beliefs, in my country, 0:25:02.000 --> 0:25:07.399 in my people, who came here to basically sacrifice my life, 0:25:07.600 --> 0:25:12.400 not for sucking his cock, but for protecting people and 0:25:12.400 --> 0:25:18.360 doing really good for this country. But I told myself, 0:25:18.400 --> 0:25:21.679 you know what, I'll make sure that one day he 0:25:21.760 --> 0:25:26.159 will pay for it. And when he did come, I 0:25:26.200 --> 0:25:29.840 had that I made this decision. I stand up from 0:25:29.920 --> 0:25:35.919 the chair and he asked me, I want you to 0:25:35.960 --> 0:25:43.560 swallow it, and I pretended that I did. Is like, 0:25:43.720 --> 0:25:48.080 go to your lesson. So I took my back and 0:25:48.119 --> 0:25:52.480 I left. But then when I left, I went to 0:25:52.520 --> 0:25:57.920 the toilet and I washed my mouth and I looked 0:25:57.960 --> 0:26:01.040 at the mirror and I started to cry because it 0:26:01.240 --> 0:26:05.440 was just so I was disgusted, but I was. 0:26:07.520 --> 0:26:08.359 You know, like that. 0:26:08.240 --> 0:26:11.960 Feeling when you know you like your dreams and everything 0:26:12.080 --> 0:26:16.719 is just like everything's just gone in one second. And 0:26:16.760 --> 0:26:19.600 then I said to myself, okay, so so now what 0:26:20.440 --> 0:26:24.960 I obviously couldn't tell anyone about this act because I mean, 0:26:25.040 --> 0:26:27.040 come on, who am I supposed to tell it to, 0:26:27.400 --> 0:26:28.280 like to move to my dad? 0:26:28.320 --> 0:26:30.760 Oh you know that, Like, I mean, I know my dad. 0:26:30.800 --> 0:26:32.920 He would go crazy and then it would be all 0:26:33.760 --> 0:26:36.520 I don't know, like he might he would might kill 0:26:36.600 --> 0:26:38.639 him and then go to jail or like it would 0:26:38.640 --> 0:26:40.359 be such a drama. So I know my dad, and 0:26:40.400 --> 0:26:42.760 I was like, no, this is definitely I cannot tell him. 0:26:43.160 --> 0:26:44.160 So who do I say? 0:26:44.600 --> 0:26:48.640 So this colonial teacher, he is the highest level. So 0:26:48.760 --> 0:26:50.760 whom do I go? There is no one to go to, 0:26:50.880 --> 0:26:52.679 there is no one to complain to, Like whom do 0:26:52.720 --> 0:26:53.000 I go to? 0:26:53.320 --> 0:26:53.760 Police? 0:26:53.880 --> 0:26:56.159 I mean he is like this is the power. I mean, 0:26:56.440 --> 0:26:57.960 whom do I go? Whom do I say? 0:26:58.160 --> 0:27:00.520 And it's already was the second time when I was 0:27:00.560 --> 0:27:05.200 actually abused in the military by the people who supports 0:27:05.280 --> 0:27:11.040 to be like, you know, to stand for justice. How 0:27:11.160 --> 0:27:16.160 I mean, like all my romantic feelings, all my dreams, 0:27:16.280 --> 0:27:20.120 all my you know, like these words by my dad 0:27:20.240 --> 0:27:24.399 telling me from early age that I should be the 0:27:24.480 --> 0:27:30.840 one who protect people and love my my my country, 0:27:30.960 --> 0:27:38.760 love love government, you know, love police, and love military. 0:27:39.680 --> 0:27:44.800 My dad who was worrying this military uniform every single day, 0:27:44.800 --> 0:27:47.159 and I would look at him and then exactly the 0:27:47.240 --> 0:27:52.359 same military person just abused me. 0:27:53.040 --> 0:27:55.639 How is that possible? I mean how. 0:27:59.200 --> 0:28:02.600 In the days that Eliah learned that her special training 0:28:02.920 --> 0:28:06.760 was about learning the art of sex fionage, she also 0:28:06.840 --> 0:28:11.040 learned that the exploitation of the academy would continue indefinitely, 0:28:11.720 --> 0:28:15.200 and that the male officers expected the female seduction students 0:28:15.320 --> 0:28:17.800 to have sex with them for what they claimed was 0:28:17.880 --> 0:28:26.320 training and desensitization purposes. So Eliah thought, if these techniques 0:28:26.400 --> 0:28:29.360 work on enemies of the state, then perhaps they will 0:28:29.400 --> 0:28:31.280 also work on the state as well. 0:28:32.960 --> 0:28:37.879 And that moment I created a plan. I thought, what 0:28:38.240 --> 0:28:43.240 if I will seduce this colonel. What if I will 0:28:43.800 --> 0:28:47.240 seduce him the way that he would fall in love 0:28:47.600 --> 0:28:51.760
