Since no one has uploaded the full Finest Hour speech, here is the entire 30 minute long speech. Well worth a listen.

There is nothing more moving than this speech. The United States was not involved, the USSR was supporting Germany. All of Europe was against the UK. Still, Winston Churchill, a man of the past, a man who will soon be displaced, stood alone and firm against the Nazis. He was one of the very few who suffered the distinction of being right. Truly, he was The Great Man.

not all of Europe was against Britain... it was Germany and Italy, you should try reading a book about the second world war, you were correct A-merica was not involved in fighting, in fact on the day Britain declared war on Germany a terrorist organization funded by the US of A was bombing buildings on main land Britain. .

World War 2 was fought between two groups of countries. On one side were the Axis Powers, including Germany, Italy and Japan. On the other side were the Allies. They included Britain, France, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, India, South Africa, Soviet union, China and eventually A-merica.

False. Axis falsifications: Finland, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, Thailand, and many puppet states such as Vichy France, Croatia, Slovakia, Mengjiang, Manchukuo, etc. Allied falsifications: No such thing as India at the time, must be referring to British Raj, Poland, Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, Norway, Greece, and Yugoslavia.

Great Britain stood alone against overwhelming odds. On her own she put a halt to operation Sea Lion! She retained mastery of the air against vastly superior numbers. How critical this victory was is often underestimated... Had she fallen, the process of liberating Great Britain along with the rest of Europe would have come at the loss of uncountable additional lives... She gave the world a sense of pride and optimism that this war was indeed winnable! God bless Great Britain! I'm an American.

The British cannot begin to match our military today for one simple reason: ECONOMY. They don't have the credit to borrow trillions from the Chinese. We are $20 Trillion in debt, and the total of unfunded Federal mandates currently matches the GDP of the entire planet. There is no possibility of our meeting our obligations in the future. So be careful how you gloat. The survivors will be the ones who are able to EAT.

Our politicians have this nations proud history forged by men like this speaking, in their hands. We should make sure our generation offers equally remembered actions of bravery, determination, sacrifice and any investments required ‘whatever the cost may be’. What a great shame it would be to allow Britain with a history as rich as no other nation on Earth, to be let crumble and weaken needlessly. Rule Britannia 🇬🇧

I am embarrassed too. But think about times in America, we just fought through the bloody WWI, the Great Depression hit us, and at the time Hitler started his shit we had people destitute and in soup lines. I can understand a majority saying, we already saved their asses once (joking) do we really need to go over there and do it again! Let them handle it. We were smuggling weapons to England as in WWI in the Lusitania. Roosevelt wanted us to declare war sooner but Congress and the populace wouldn’t allow the it. Japan quickly changed our countries attitude by their cowardly act. (There are is a theory that Roosevelt knew of the impending sneak attack before it happened and allowed it to happen to turn popular sentiments to war. I doubt it but maybe he did.). Regardless NEVER AGAN! England and the US are inseparable allies. Attack one, you attack both.

The British were fighting on many fronts, East Africa, South East Asia, North Africa, South Asia, Europe and later even the Pacific, and yet we still kept fighting. The Americans did lend a much-needed helping hand, although to say that they saved Britain is up to debate.

Thinking about the evil at my doorstep. Also knowing that the fight had to happen even though it was the worst option. Churchill was a true leader and didn’t back down when it mattered most!

@WMJCPA
@WMJCPA 9 років тому
RebirthWoWGuild It wasn't that he saw the British Empire so powerful to simply destroy Germany, in fact he knew this would be a long hard fight. What he did do is understand that the Nazi's were the enemy at that time, Fascism was the enemy of the free people of the world, and it had to be defeated. He did not save Communism, he was equally appalled by that ism as well, but as fate would have it, he found himself on the same side as the Soviet Union as did we. It's cliché but true, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Later, Churchill was the only one of the world leaders to see the coming evil of Communism, and yes that was for a different war. I started out with a disdain for Churchill for other reasons, but as I learned more about the man and the times of WWII and what he had to overcome, I developed a great respect for him. Let's not forget that for a time, England stood alone against the evil of the Third Reich, all of their allies had been defeated and we were not yet in the war. They faced it alone and they were all that stood between Hitler and world domination. Think of it, half of the world speaking German, the other half speaking Japanese with the United States turned into a slave labor camp half German and half Japanese. Don't laugh it could have happened. That is why I see the greatness in this man.
@Dyl482
@Dyl482 9 років тому
***** Churchill didn't have to * overcome * anything. He was a spoiled brat, his mother gave him an allowance bigger than his pay cheque. I'm sure if youve studied his history you know that right? A selfish careerist, writings of racism in his battles as a british soldier against FOREIGNERS in THEIR native nation to subject them to the british empire. Hitler, went to through homelessness, worked labor jobs, a lot more struggle of a life than Churchills and learning to overcome selfishness as he himself lived as the bottom peasant for awhile. Churchill doesn't know struggle in life, and he doesn't know struggle in politics. Hitler literally turned an unknown party of 7 members, through his political,debate and pureness in his speaking he grew into the monumental political party in germany. Over throwing Capitalism legally. Granted his power by both the President, the army, and the majority of german elected officials. Over throwing capitalism legally has never been done, communism always through coup/illegal means. And then National Socialism both started to out preform Britian economically and militarily. The british empire.....seeks to establish its dominance as is its way with the peoples of the world it ruled over. It is too bad the british forget too easily that germany is also prime denizen of western civilization as well and not some push over poor third world nation. See the difference between national socialist racism and british imperialistic racism is that national socialism was removing foreigners/internationalists such as jews and gypsies. British went to foreign nations and forced them to be their subjects. Natsoc germany can be proud that they ended the largest empire in history and freed many nations. Ironic isn't it? India can thank natsoc germany. my nation of Canada can only thank it once we truly do reclaim our nationalism.

Well I guess now I've heard it all. No wonder you moron revisionists are ruining the world for everyone that has an ounce of common sense left. To say that Nazi Germany somehow did the world a favor is like thanking Charles Manson for somehow cleansing society of a spoiled starlet Sharon Tate. Makes about as much sense. I never saw a single note where Churchill undertook genocide against any race of people, but Hitler did or are you going to deny that as well. Hitler was evil plain and simple there is nothing else to say he was an evil tyrant suffering from the worst case of narcissistic personality disorder until the present day. Whether Churchill was a spoiled brat or not is between him and his parents that means nothing to the world. If he was one then I say give us a few more like him. For the life of me I cannot understand the disdain that people have today for the privilege of living in a free society. You better take heed because this too may be fleeting. Incidentally, if I am not mistaken Canada was granted independence back in the late 1800's. If you have a problem with your own nationalism it is likely because you hooked onto your southern neighbor and hung on for the ride. We have carried the ball alone with little help from anyone. So take a look around, you may not like the world you think you would like to see.

***** * whether churchill is a spoiled brat or not means nothing * uh yes it does he fucking was the one who sent the declaration of war are you implying the character of such a powerful man does not matter? Same with FDR, FDR was born a millionare. Part of the roosevelt family. Both churchill and fdr only ever lived as one class, the millionare class with no struggle. And as for Stalin, Stalins power came through coup and then the mass killing of government officials and army generals. Indeed of these 4 significant leaders, most people can only relate to one of them. Hitler. Do you disagree? How many of us get an allowance from our millionare parents that is more than our annual wage * churchill *? How many of us are born into one of the most powerful families in the nation*FDR *? How many of us rob banks and farmers to fund our political party* stalin *?

It could be I read it in his memoires of WWII; Cassels 6 book set. Or it could be the biblical reference point for his life with Martin Gilbert's 8 book series. And if it's from Lord Moran, Manchester, Jenkins or others; well that's ok. My only thought right now is for me to try and historically brainstorm and remember what lady was across from him.

For what, for Poland, which he pretty quickly forgot and left it to the Russian. Do you believe the tale that Hitler wanted to conquer the island. No, England declared war on Germany and Hitler had to act, had to install a front against England. - Churchill started WW2 only to keep the Versailles Treaty from 1919 up with the land grab. German land was stolen and given to Poland, the homes of millions of simple people were stolen but Hitler (the official bad guy) wanted to change this.

This was the second time Churchill delivered this speech, the first one was in the house of commons (the second on the radio). Churchill didnt want to do it. He was very tired and without the mood to do it. Harold Nicolson (Under-Secretary of State) write to Clementine (Churchill's wife): "How i wish Winston would not talk on the wireless unless he is feeling in good form. He hates the microphone, and when we bullied him into speaking last night, he just sulked... Now, as delivered in the House of Commons, that speech was magnificent... but it sounded ghastly on the wireless. All the great vigour he put into it seemed to evaporate."
@toomaskarmo9435
@toomaskarmo9435 6 років тому
And yet was the BBC performance "ghastly"? A few stumbles do not make for ghastly delivery. They instead suggest honesty and humanity. The last thing the BBC, and through their microphones the world's free peoples in the UK and abroad, needed was the kind of gesticulatory rant cultivated by the Reichsführer. The Prime Minister's measured, careful tone seems to me to match his solemn subject matter. A bit of a peroration might be appropriate at the end, but indeed at that point the Prime Minister's tone does rise, as one might wish. (In making these corrective remarks, I do must not be taken to denigrate the quoted critic of this oratory, Sir Harold Nicolson. Sir Harold himself made solid contributions to British diplomatic, parliamentary, literary, and horticultural life.)

I believe speaking in the House of Commons called for oratory, but speaking on the radio required a conversational style, as if you were talking to people in their living rooms. What I find remarkable in the radio broadcasts is how low key and conversational he is - and how honest about forthcoming hardship, the possibility of invasion and even of defeat. Whether this low key style was deliberate or not I think it is exactly right for those listening.

I memorised his finest hour speech for a Rostrum function (rostrum is a public speaking club) and I am apx the same age as WC was when he delivered that speech. I listened again and again to this speech to get the voice, the pausing as best I could correct. It was a very great success in poor part from my delivery but in large part from his most profound choice of words. EC see below 3years ago decried the absence of a PM of Churchills strength, I can only say the same for this country, Australia.

Winston Churchill has always been one of the leaders , I admire. I was a Medical Corp wave during Nam and recently got to visit the WW11 museum in New Orleans. It still makes you want to get down on your knees and pray, and give thanks to all who gave so much to keep freedom.

I have almost all the books by Winston. Truly a wonderful personality. His command over English, let's call King's English, is commendable and is something I still cherish.
