Hello! Thank you for the speech! Nevertheless. Try checking out the transcription, as there are mistakes, for example at 5:10 it should by "by resource, by skill" and not "Irish lost by skill" And there are multiple funny things like this over the whole deliverance :D Best regards!
Japan, Australia, India, some of the ASEAN countries and of course, America stand with you, for freedom. No one shall conquer Taiwan. There I’ve said it: Taiwan is a nation! Let’s see if Winnie Pooh is upset with me.
Yes. There is no greater honor than knowing you fought with everything you had. I have no doubt that all invaders will fail in their assault. Your island is a fortress. Your defences strong, your will iron and your allies many.
India largest VOLUNTEER army 2.5 million. Canada volunteers. Ghuŕkas volunteer not colonized. Fiji not colonized. Australia and NZ not conscripted. No we were not entirly alone but it had nothing to do with colonies.
We were alone during the battle of Britain, once France surrendered, europe was pretty much under Nazi control. We were the only country still in the fight, America wasn't involved and I'm pretty sure Russia at that point sided with Germany
My dad's your age, my grandad was in ww2 for the whole duration, their generation venerated those old boys because good or bad, right or wrong they did lead them as best they could in a war that involved millions of people for half a generation and finally won with everyone knowing someone lost in the conflict, you boomers & us X-generation never knew real hardship like they did, my grandad was my hero, he won the legione of honour award from the French people for his services to the French at pegasus bridge against a crack ss battalion and a box full of various other medals he never looked at or talked about, we kids played with them in the 70's as they were under granny's sink lol, great generation of people, real pleased to have known these folk
@@johnkaluzny9649well here is a 78 my mother and father lived threw to world wars in London and my parents also spoke well of Churchill best leader for the job at the time better than today
It probably was adressed to the US. "We will fight, wether yoi help us or not" The UK needed the US. The US wasnt sure if to help of not. The UK kept fighting, proved worthy. It still needed Pearl Harbor to convonce the US. I wonder how the world would look if the Appeasement had never accured. If the US had joined the war in 1939. Probably worse. Less dead people. Thus less fear of repeating it. Anyways i'm losing my point haha He probably adressed it to the US.
@@JB17521or there is alot of factors but i truly believe the war would of been deadlier and lasted longed since it was the US who turned the tide of the war but idk
@@JB17521or The UK didn't need the US, the UK wanted the US. Germany couldn't have invaded Britain but at the same time fighting alone would have been an uphill battle. The second Germany invaded the USSR there was zero chance the Germans could have won, as for the Italians they were nothing without Germany propping them up
@@mrcaboosevg6089 the UK needed the US. Sealion was unrealistic even eith airsuperiority above the UK, but the UK simply lacked the economic power. They could mobioise millions if Raj included but to equip these men properly, not only with guns but with tanks, trucks, artillery etc and still trying to defeat german uboats that make the british isles starve and lack of ressources, and while all of that beeibg bombed from above. The UK could have survived alone, but they could never have won the war alone. To defeat Hitler they needed the US. And in 1939/40 nobody knew about that Hitler would invade SovietUnion. At that time they seemed to be partial allies. So even worse odds for Britain. History proved that wrong tough.
1940: “I have nothing to offer, but blood, toil, tears and sweat.” 1945: “ 5 years ago, I promised you, blood, toil, tears and sweat. And your untiring response brought us in end to a victory over Germany. Today we still have tears, but not so many thank god-“ RIP Winston Leonard Spencer Churchill
This man win the war way his words no disrespect for those that gave all that thay could on the day for our tomorrow LWF thank yous but how inspiring and patriotic was he so proud to be british rule britannia 🇬🇧
@@Kitiwake the sleepless nights, the health conditions he ignored, the unwavering leadership. Just because he wasn’t on the front line doesn’t he Churchill wasn’t sacrificing his health to preform the highest duty, leading a country in wartime to victory. Read a book sometime
Only a speech. The war was an own goal and the source of the current catastrophic minimisation of British people. Grooming gangs, knifings, Manchester Arena. Churchill caused these by his war mongering. Left a mess in Ireland and the destabilization he caused in the Middle East causes suffering to this day.
It was a long, arduous speech until the last two minutes. He described how Great Britain got to this point and simply said, we shall keep fighting. Until we deliver victory or until someone helps rescue us. The fight will never end, one way or another!
Joe Atkins He continuously pressed and agitated for war. Without his infantile nagging Chamberlain a sensible, level headed, deeply moral and kind man diplomacy might have had a chance. Apart from WW2 he created a greater mess in WW1. Britain and the British people are screwed, demographically 6 year olds already a minority. Looking back at into the past „nostalgically“ at Churchill is pointless and useless. He did the wrong thing in WW1 and WW2. He did nothing to prevent what had happened. Intellectually a light weight, he on,y had words not clear aims. He offers no answers. Just as pointless as dreaming over spilled milk. Forget about him. He offers nothing.
@@CaptainFrankBlack this guys probably legit based on his UA-cam playlists. definitely watches what Id expect a 90 year old to watch. You would be amazed at who uses this site.
@@CaptainFrankBlack this speech was 83 years ago. theres plenty of english people who are still alive today who got to hear it, even some who use youtube!
It’s odd that one of the most patriotic feelings I ever got as an American was hearing a British Prime Minister say, “until, in God’s good time, the New World, with all its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and deliveration of the Old.”
It’s an epic line, simultaneously recognising our long and noble and grand history while acknowledging that, with dignity, we were reaching the end of our hegemony and that it’s was time to pass the torch of the defender of civilisation to a stronger, more numerous nation.
It was an appeal to the United States, certainly, but we shouldn't forget that it also was speaking of Canada, Australia, and even India. Churchill's own notes on that make it clear. He viewed all of them as the children of Britain, a new world created by the old. For India the comparison might be a little odd, but remember that nearly 3.35 million Indians volunteered to fight in WW2, receiving a vast horde of honors in the process. A step-child perhaps, but at the time a faithful one. And the United States plays the role of first-born, having rebelled and left a controlling parent, but in time realizing how little difference remains. Though for the United States it should have been quite simple, France was our step-mother, after all, and it was equally imperiled.
@@Malorn0 it was an appeal to just the United States as that is the new world, and Canada I guess. But Australia and India definitely aren’t new world. They get acknowledged when he mentions the empire as that is who they are. I agree with the child like analogy though.
Were it not for this speech, the war would have been lost. We, the British people, owe so much to this man, this man who was not wanted at first. Thank you, Sir Winston!
@@leenobody3249 In other words, your comment that:- 'He was not wanted afterwards either as it goes.' Was a false one, based presumably on either ignorance or personal prejudice?
@@gigaboat Oh dear, do try to do some reading. Churchill proposed the Gallipoli campaign as a means, by the use of sea power, of knocking the Ottoman Empire out of the war, thus weakening the Central Powers, and perhaps avoiding, or at least minimising, the unfolding carnage on the Western Front. He did not plan it, a number of Army and Navy senior officers did, and nor did he authorise it. The Prime Minister, Herbert Asquith, did. Do you think that Lincoln personally planned the campaigns and battles of the American Civil War, or FDR personally planned D-Day or the Hurtgen Forest?
he committed mass genocides in India killing millions. Many people liken Churchill to Hitler and Stalin, and rightly so, he was a racist and elitist who has the blood of millions of Indian's on his hands.
I have to admit that when he says "we shall go on to the end" it brings a tear to my eye. Because what he is basically saying is that he knows it's going to be hell on earth, but it had to be done to stand on principle. I also love his tone, which exudes a regretful but total belief in final victory ✌.
@Louise X Overrated or not; Churchill was only a few who saw the Nazis as a threat and was only a few in the British government who wasn't going to be Hitler's bitch.
Before the war: _The Hun is either at your throat or at your feet._ After the war: 'We must save Germany or forfeit all of Europe.' Both of these are the man from Blenheim Palace/Chartwell. A remarkable man, indeed.
@Richard G. Orwell Surely it could be argued that every Briton has an ancestor who participated in the appalling event of Slavery. British history contains elements that are shameful and we have to accept that. However, Germany had Nazism and the United States had the genocide of the Native American. So many countries have periods of history for which they cannot be proud. All any of us can do is learn from the mistakes of the past and work to ensure they are not repeated in the future.
I as a Canadian have so admired him. The way he spoke of defending their island. Never surrendering brings chills no matter how many times I have heard this.🇨🇦🇬🇧
The pressure this man was under is inconceivable , to have the world looking to you to inspire and stop a force never seen before , he will forever be remembered as the greatest Englishman to ever serve his country
don't know about that, there are several to history, e.g.. sir Francis Drake, Sir Walter Raleigh, Nelson, Wellington, and these are just the Military defenders/warmongers. How do you measure a great man, or woman? If you're talking about greatness in generating an empire, then it's probably Capt Jamess Cook, or promoting emancipation and Ending tthe slave trade In the face of total resentment and adversity, then William Wilberforce Personallly, for True toughness, self effacement, bravery and impartiality in the face of blanket hostility, ostracism and ridicule, I would say George Orwell is the greatest ever Englishman
I'm American through and through but this man has always inspired me. I listen to this speech every so often to remind myself to never give up and always keep fighting. What a great man. I could not imagine a more cowardly act than defacing a statue of this man. Sick sick world. We need the old Brittish and American value system to come back. Take care my Brittish brothers & sisters. Always remember, there are people in the US that still care and want the best for you ladies and gents.
It's a good thing you affirmed you are american. You almost lost your citizenship, praising a non merican. Cause almost always only Americans can be great people
🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧Thank you brother.its comforting to know our American brothers and sisters are thinking of us.sending my prayers and love straight back at you god bless you.
My father, Don Green, was at Dunkirk. He said that they kept back in the sand dunes for cover. He said that normally the English Channel is either as calm with clear skies or rough weather with dark skies. This time my father said that the sky was dark with thick clouds and the sea was as calm as a mill pond. He said that because the clouds were so thick Jerry couldn't easily see them. He saw a couple of Jerry aircraft breaking through the cloud, but two or three of our aircraft quickly appeared and chased after them, and saw them off. Then the last spitfire of the group tilted its wings to say goodbye, as it left for England. Soon, a very large flotilla of assorted small and large boats came from all around England and Wales to Dunkirk to aid their escape.
@@insightdefence9162 You don't know, you weren't there. Don't believe all the Fabian rubbish you were taught in school or in a magazine you may have read or a film you may have seen, or you will be led like a lamb to the slaughter. I wrote this because it was at variance to what was portrayed in the film.
Yeah my grandad was there too, I'd love to have gotten a chance to ask him about it but he died when I was a kid, straight after Dunkirk he joined the RAF and spent the later part of the war as a bomb aimer on Lancaster bombers. I'm very proud of my grandad, wish I got to know him better though.
100 percent true. When threatened by Hitler, he, as we all know, never stood back and allowed Hitler to defeat him. His speeches gave the British people hope during World War II. They realized that they had strong leadership from Sir Winston Churchill.
Listening to this in Ukraine, 10 miles from the Russian border, in a still free city, i hope that Europe will never forget its lessons, will never betray itself.
It's amazing that we can sit here over 75yrs later and listen to this. Just a few years later my Grandfather went ashore at Omaha. I remember only a few stories of his walk across France and Europe as he didn't talk about it much. History is that close to our pampered children protesting over something or other as to how hard their lives are when a generation, right now, are the last to hear what WW2 was like from people that fought in it.
The UK and empire saved the world. As an American of 53 years old, I say thank you!! Our world was on the knife's point between evil and freedom. Against all odds, the British won!
That is so true and brilliant but we just held out until the US was forced by horror to get involved. It's fine to be anti-war, war is horror. I think the world is so close to something much worse. I would fight with everything to protect a free and good life. I worry that war now would just be a push button annihilation. No man could do anything but be fodder. :) Please save us for what maybe coming!
The British deserve a great deal of credit, but it was a game of numbers and the US was and is the arsenal of democracy. The Brits would fight to the end , but without the US the would've come
There was no way operation sealion could ever have been successful. Germany could never have conquered the UK it was a fantastical nonsense that even senior German officers knew could never succeed. To invade the UK in 1940 you needed naval superiority, the Germans never came close to that. However, the liberation of Europe, d-day and all that came after could never have happened without American support and American troops. There is a reason why Eisenhower was CiC and not Montgomery. The US did NOT save the UK (they did that themselves), but the US AND UK saved the rest of Europe@@user-bj1tb7oz4x

I know it's been a year since you posted your comment but I hope you're doing well & life is better for you. I've been in the same position & you're right. Listening to Churchills speeches can lift your heart & give you that little bit of extra fight to carry on & see the next sunrise. God bless you pal 🙏
His speeches have helped me through some dark times as well. And then I learned that he also suffered with debilitating depression, and what we today know as ptsd, caused by the failed amphibious landings at gallipoli, where my great great uncle died. After learning this, his speeches suddenly became so much more personal for me. Like Winston, I am half British, like him I served in the British army, albeit for a short time. And like him I have suffered due to the "black dog of depression". Stay strong brother. Never surrender, and do what makes you happy. Also, don't be concerned about what other people think. There's a motto in the British army, known as the order of the garter. Honi soi qui mal y pense. It means "death to those who the evil upon it".
@@arthurnolasco185 First of all; Thank you for your service. Your comment was very well put. I to suffer with depression & like you some of Winstons speeches lift me out of that dark pit for a while. Stay strong my friend. Stay strong

I am a German. I long for a new Churchill. Are these times not dark enough yet? When I watch what is going on in London I am desperate. What happened to the brave British people? Back then they knew what was right and wrong, they stood up for western values and were willing to fight for it. And now. It saddens me truly. From the rest of Western Europe I never expected much.
We've been indoctrinated by Leftist academics, teachers, journalists and Politicians. We've allowed our own sense of fair play and welcome to hold us back when we should have said no and now we're cowed by fear of being denounced as racists and Islamiphobes.
People forget how bad the situation was in Europe through 1939-1940. Poland was attacked by the two most powerful countries in the world, and destroyed in no time. The third strongest power on the mainland (France) fell faster than Poland, and the fourth most powerful power (Italy) helped Germany do it. Britain was alone, they lost all their equipment at Dunkirk (almost lost the entire army!), And they had a weak air force compared the the Germans. They knew that dark times were ahead, but they simply said "no". They knew that the Germans couldn't land because of the powerful Royal Navy, and that was enough to stick with it.
@@rachelabrantegil3937 britain was weak huh By the end of October 1940, Hitler called off his planned invasion of Britain and the Battle of Britain ended. Both sides suffered enormous loss of life and aircraft. Still, Britain weakened the Luftwaffe and prevented Germany from achieving air superiority. It was the first major defeat of the war for Hitler
I believe that Winston Churchill said that if you lock him in a room with a bottle of brandy, he can write a speech that will bring tears to men's eyes. This speech is one of those. Respect from the USA to a great British hero.
Yeah, Churchill sacrificed millions of Britons, and people of other ethnicities for that matter, for his own personal reputation, popularity, and wealth. He was a terrible, cowardly man.
@@orthodoxbelarussianopinion713 Well in that case, so was FDR, de Gaulle, Stalin, Hitler, Mussolini and Tojo alike. He didn’t do it for his own reputation, if he’d have lost the war his reputation wouldn’t matter with half the country being enslaved into a nazi regime. And whilst the bravest are the soldiers, the war would’ve been very much lost without a leader like Churchill.
Alot of people knocking him in here. Say what you will. Call him a drunk, etc.. all those things are what remind us that the guy was a human being, just like the rest of us. So hate on him if you will.. but while you woke up today, checked your phone, went to work, came home and insulted a guy online - he woke up and ran his country during a fucking world war. Churchill - 1. Haters - 0. Dont forget where you came from.
@SamWeller he did make some monumental fuckups tho ..to wit, the disastrous gallipoli campaign in world war one ....unforgiveable , ..slaughtered australians and new zealanders.....
@Joe Menguy Churchill fought in India, the Boer War and the Sudan campaign as a young man. After Gallipoli and disgrace, he served in the trenches as CO of a battalion of the Royal Highland Fusiliers. Could you imagine a modern politician doing any such thing?
@Joe Menguy The Beveridge Report, which led to the foundation of the NHS, was commissioned after Churchill became PM of a Conservative-led Coalition government and itwas published in 1942. Beveridge was a Liberal and later a Liberal MP. Churchill did not, apparently, approve of the NHS as eventually proposed - neither did Beveridge, who did not want so much central control - but he had conceded the need for massive social change before the 1945 Labour landslide.
@Joe Menguy Wasn't even his idea - the French dreamed it up and he backed it. It was a good idea - but the Allies did not have the experience, equipment or sufficient intelligence on the region to carry it off. Lessons learned there, however, were later used by the Allies in the Normandy landings in the west, particularly the insistence on the need for the innovative Mulberry harbours, and informed US Navy and Marine Corps doctrine in the East. The Dardanelles campaign was certainly part of the curriculum at Dartmouth a few years back. Probably still is.
You're my hero, I went to see Gary Oldman's movie Darkest Hour this evening, I was in tears when I heard your speech! Rest in Peace Sir and thank you for your courage & bravery!
I too watched that brilliant film and have now watched the film Churchill which is about D Day, again an excellent film which again shows so many others against him, but he stood his ground.
Im now sitting comfortably on my bedroom's chair, listening to history and can only imagine the grim and dire circumstances these ppl were enduring and the grief Churchil felt while delivering his message... definitely the finest hour of a brave and enduring country
@@user-bd1si1ru3x you know that you are saying all this stuff when you write your name in Cyrillic script look at the way your glorious leaders treated people and be quiet please
My grandfather once told me that when Churchill mobilised the English language we never doubted we would win the war. I was eight when he died and remember watching his funeral on the television. A true British hero,never been anyone like him since
The rescue of some 330,000 men from Dunkirk in 1940 was a feat of the utmost bravery, and as Sir Winston mentioned, totally unexpected! His famous speech a few days later will never be forgotten either! The greatest Englishman ever, speaking from his heart.
I never so have felt such pride in a country and nation I am not from. This speech makes us all British irregardless of if we are from the United Kingdom
Iv said this now over a thousand times, no matter what religion, what colour, what country, what gender, if your life is in England you live in England, then your British through & through
We in France have tremendous respect and admiration for the great Sir Winston, one of a kind for sure. He and his French peer General de Gaulle were on a par, giants who stood up against adversity and an overwhelming foe, and eventually prevailed. We owe them our respect and gratitude 🙏🤲🙇♂️
Jennifer Christensen You'd be surprised how often I, an American, have to defend the greatness of Britain to her own citizens. It's nice to know you aren't all self hating. Britain and America have been the greatest forces for good the world has ever seen. American values that we hold so precious such as free speech and self ownership came from British Philosophers such as John Locke. No civilization did more to combat slavery than the British empire. Slavers actually became afraid of the British Navy and would cut the throats of their slaves and throw them overboard in order to avoid being caught with slaves by the British. Without Britain there would have likely been no western front in ww2 and Hitler would have been able to unify his forces against the American funded Russian military. Now I look at our long close allies and she resembles nothing of the great nation I read about. She's become a self doubting nation unsure of her values. I hope you win this battle there. I hate watching the culture of our closest ally crumble. I can't speculate as to what the problems are, obviously you know that better than me. American culture is obviously different from British culture. Just know you have our support and if you ever take back the politics of your own country you'll have the support of the American people.
raymond daubney Because Asia has such a great history? I promise I'm more historically literate than you. Your ad hominem and conjecture are the usually tactics of the mentally deficient.
Like Washington, Lincoln, FDR, and others, Winston Churchill was the right leader at just the right time. Not sure he would have become as renowned in any other era, but he sure was an exraordinary choice for mankind's darkest hour.
As a child I remember hearing of Churchill's defeats, election defeats, after the war. And even as a child I thought, "Well, that's the democracy he saved." A tribute to him. Yeah, I'm old.
FDR was certainly not the "right leader" for WW2. Though a great speaker, the man was a serious racist who allowed and oversaw the construction of internment camps for the Japanese on the West Coast (in partnership with Canada) after the attack on Pearl Harbor. His economic plans were also, to say the least, pretty...bad.
@@wearyguardsman he was responsible for the camps. He new they were there and did nothing. Also more recent studies show that the new deal may have actually extended the Great Depression, and even then we all know that wwii was the thing that saved the us economy. Not to mention the fact that he tried to pack the Supreme Court when they started striking down his unconstitutional act.
@@romanwagner8709 Bring information about the New Deal's effect. Each state implemented it differently and typically conservative states tended to reduce it as much as possible. The data shows that progressive states recovered faster as they embraced the New Deal. Proper analysis of the whole portrait is important. Also, no one can say that FDR, or any political man of that time, was perfect. They had their flaws, they were also men of their time, with some of the limitations. To judge them by today's standards is pointless. There are things he did in times of war which are very questionable and blamable, and they should be told. However, it shouldn't alone destroy all the good things he did for the world and his country. In many respects, FDR served his countrymen in a way that few politicians did, and did so with great success for America. I agree with @Weary Guardsman. If all politicians were half as committed to their coutrymen as FDR, this world would be much, much better.
“We shall defend our island whatever the cost may be; we shall fight on beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields, and in the streets we shall fight in the hills. We shall never surrender” - W. Churchill
Unfortunately many people today think to judge a man born in 1874 by modern standards, they don't understand how different things were even at the time that this speech was made and if you listen carefully you might hear his lisp caused by poorly fitting dentures which made it uncomfortable to eat and sometimes even speak, perhaps part of the reason he drank heavily and he was possibly suffering with Arthritis, although he used to keep fit by Marching up and down the great hall at Checkers, the PM'S official residence to Military Band music, he of course was an Army Officer as a young man and again during WW1 and as a Veteran I remember how hard it is to March through a Town or City to a Military Band, the Echo is very off putting to say the least. Also there's been a problem with Russian "Bots" or Trolls spreading Disinformation throughout social media trying to divide the US and the UK and Europe, Puin's Propaganda machine has been working out of St Petersburg in a very effective way, Brexit was caused by them and they've been trying to get both California and Texas to leave the Union without success, because we know that they are there now.
@@kevnwarriner8819 If you fail to recognize the flaws in a man, you’re bound to see them pop up again. He was directly responsible for a famine that killed, at the very least, 2 million people. Even in his time, that is a horrid action that shouldn’t be overlooked.
@@coolvids841 Wasn’t the war responsible for the famine ? So Churchill wasn’t directly responsible. I do agree with you though that when looking at historical figures we need to look at their flaws as well as their positives.
@@Valencetheshireman927 It wasn’t a necessary outcome of the war effort. There was enough food to be supplied for the Indian people but Churchill just ignored them. It’s a lot like what happened in the Potato famine, the English government just let the people die, only India was far worse.
The greatest leader this country has ever seen. Every time I listen to one of Sir Winston Churchill's speeches it lifts my heart and makes me proud to be British. I strongly believe that if it wasn't for this great man we would of lost the war. We could do with a leader like him TODAY.
Agreed from across the pond... I often say that Winston was truly the first & last great leader and orator of the 20th Century. I wish we still had men of this caliber today.......
@@roderick2105 Britain defended liberty and prevented the Nazis from taking the rest of Europe. Without them America could not have staged D-day, or pulled it off. Without the British fighting with all their might, the Red Airforce would not have defeated the Luftwaffe and would not have won against Germany. Without Britain, North Africa would stay under the control of Italy and Germany, and the Axis never would have had the extremely hindering fuel problem they had late war. Without the British navy, the Kreigsmarine would have posed a great enough threat to stop any attempted landings into Europe by America, as the American navy was tied up in the Pacific. Without Britain fighting to the last man, Europe would be ruled by the fascists. Defending freedom was more important to the British people than keeping their Empire, keeping their resources and even keeping their great men.
I will never understand how some people now a days speak ill of this man he is a HERO. I'm not even British and I think its terrible to want to take down his statues. I hope they don't in fact I hope they stay up for the next 300 years. We should never forget our history especially the greatest generation
Don’t worry friend in the U.K. it’s a very SMALL loud minority of people. I can assure you 99% of people absolutely love Churchill and are eternally thankful
@@svenasmussen8745 he wasn’t a huge racist. He never dispised anyone of colour it’s evident. The reason people don’t like him is because he favoured the British people in the time of war over the people from overseas in the empire. They starved so the the brits wouldn’t starve. If the brits on the island of Great Britain had starved then Germany Would have invaded and the war would be over. There would be no advance from the western front. Everything that invaded the beaches on D-day came from England. And I mean EVERYTHING war was lost if the U.K. fell
It’s amazing hearing this, and to think how scared the British were. Alone now.. for an entire year they would be alone , facing the German army.. yet they never ever gave up or thought about surrender. There are bitter weeds in England..
I am almost 68 years old. I was born after the war (1953). I knew of this speech and heard parts of it in school. It wasn’t till recently I was able to watch the film adaptation of the speech to Parliament. And when Mr. Churchill got to the line about “the New World with all its power and might stepping forward to rescue the old,” I swelled with pride; not just as an American, but for my family! My parents didn’t marry till after the war. They lived in Southeastern Kentucky - Appalachia. My father, even though he was blind in one eye and listed as non-combat, volunteered as a truck driver (landing on Omaha Beach on D Day pus 3) and was also invited lived in the battle of the Bulge. Although he was non-combat, he had a Thompson sub machine gun in a holster on the door of his Duce and a Half truck. And he has a 9 mil. pistol. My grandparents and my mother and her sister went up to Detroit to work in the munitions factories. They made bomb fuses. My family pitched in and helped save the Old World!
@The Richest Man In Babylon Well, but, we did have to come. Remember, Japan was an Axis member and after they attacked us at Pearl Harbor, we declared war against Japan. Hitler soon after declared war against us on December 11, 1941. But as an American I am very glad and proud of the fact that though my country was born out of a war with yours, and later fought a 2 year war (1812-1814) against yours, yet still in due time we became fast friends in the world and together helped defeat a great evil. May God bless Great Britain.
@@scottb4579 In theory Japan was not an Axis power, nor did the Tripartite Pact have to be honored in theory-Hitler did not in fact have to declare war. He however did. Had he not it was very likely we would eventually get involved in Germany but more men would have died for the sake of the war. Thank God we came when we did. God bless Great Britain indeed-everyone glorifies American might and how it “won the war” but there’s no doubt the war was won by the steady nerve of Britain under fire and the British will to stay in the fight even at personal cost. (I say this as an American; I’ve a great amount of respect for any veteran as my own grandfather was a Navy man in Vietnam, but the will of the British citizens in 1940-41 especially will forever stun and awe me)
"The war wasnt only about abolishing fascism, but to conquer sales markets. We could have, if we had intended so, prevented this war from breaking out without doing one shot, but we didn't want to." - Winston Churchill to Truman (Fultun, USA March 1946)
"We have no higher duty, and no more pressing duty, than to remind ourselves and our students, of political greatness, human greatness, of the peaks of human excellence." Remarks by Leo Strauss on hearing of Churchill's death
He was a racist, absolutely, but he also was a genius politician. He should be remembered for the war general and political voice he was, not the bigot.
Varinia C : Well said, very well said, for which my thanks. How we were fortunate to have the GM, how lucky was the world, truly gut-wrenching the horrors of those eventful days and years that this great man somehow saw his way through steadfast for all our sakes never to fail in his description and condemnation of the ways and means of appalling barbarism to which somehow humanity had fallen prey.
raymond daubney Well yes. Of course he didn't like the uprising in India. But my goodness I'm sure many Indians would forgive him for saving them from what would surely be their deaths in camps.
Yohan Drht is his statue in India or Iran? No it isn’t, it’s in Britain, if it was in you country then that’s fair enough to complain but not when he’s in Britain
Yohan Drht well to be honest it’s your country’s decision to take it down, he shouldn’t be taken down in the uk and even if his statue is taken down, does that change the history?No it doesn’t, people need to stop complaining about what happened in the past and focus on real issues we face today
What makes his words so chilling is the dispassionate manner in which they are spoken. I always envisoned him as hammering down on the dais as he shouted, "We shall never surrender!"
Soviet Union saved the world. Not Britain. Stalin was not a saint, but he was the right man at the right time in the right spot. Some Russian journalists want to cannonify Stalin and make him a Russian saint. This is a ridiculous idea, since he became an atheist in his later years.
Churchill is one of the people who makes me glad I was born an English speaking person. Only those who speak English as a first language know how great his eloquence is. wow.
Not only... English is , sadly, not my first language nor my nation's language but my love of English and forever gratefulness to the saviors in those dark hours ,to say the least, also come from Churchill's speeches and strength. We so need a Churchill today...
I don't speak German, but I could feel Hitler's eloquence. Great oration need not often require a full grasp of the language. Having English as my first language though, I understand too how eloquent the British Bulldog is.
Not really, English is my fourth language and I can easily feel his eloquence. Not so keen on his lack of vocalisation though, he reminds me of Patrick Moore on his later years.
I think you’re right. Non native English speakers really miss something, but I’m not sure what it is, my guess is the emotional timbre....the ancient connotations at deep strata of the words and phrases mixed with tone and context. The same with all languages, I’m sure. I think having fluent English as a second language cannot account for the depth of the unconscious affect of this speech. I’m convinced he,wasn’t aware of that either.
What a marvellous orator this man was. This speech that he gave should be written down, translated into as many languages that are capable of accommodating it, and then read out to all that all may understand what British resolve really is. Truly exceptional.
@user-qb9lu8ln1e I live in the GREAT state of Kentucky here in the good old Confederate States of America, nobody NOBODY talks to the yanks up north that way🧐 Well except for us here in the South of course😁
I'm not British, but the goosebumps and electricity up and down my spine especially at the denouement of Churchill's speech demonstrate to me it's greatness. I'm a homosexual, North American teenager, & I'd gladly die defending Britain to such stirring words.
Been reading his account of the Second World War. Pretty much everyone in the country was united at this time. They were out to have Adolf Hitler’s blood, or die in the attempt.
If you mean it then buy some weights and train with them on your own but stick to the hammer curl exercise and the standing press and squats don’t start too heavy
I’m a 50+ years old Brit. That is the first time I have heard that speech in its entirety. Until today, I genuinely did not know it related to the evacuation, rather the Battle of Britain. Thank you for publishing this. Such artefacts are important and should be publicised,
he committed mass genocides in India killing millions. Many people liken Churchill to Hitler and Stalin, and rightly so, he was a racist and elitist who has the blood of millions of Indian's on his hands. However some speech he gave to rally troops is given more importance. Gimmie a break
@@GTA_6_Clips All leaders of great powers throughout history have had blood on their hands. But some more than others. Churchills goverment also did good in the world. You cannot compare WW2 Britain to WW2 Germany in it's cruelty.
@@NautyCat yes you absolutely can compare. The issue is most westerners are not taught of the cruelty conducted by the British empire, which far outstrips the cruelty conducted by the Nazi's. Especially in the case of Winston Churchill whom is admired so foundly in the uk (I know cause I live there), and hailed as a hero, yet he was responsible for the deaths of up to 30million Indians because he was a racist. The comparison is that Churchill was far more efficient about it, and disguised his bad and cruel nature through deeds that protected his own (British white people). Whereas Hitler was a public figure who bent to the will of his people. Hitler didn't seek to commit genocide to Jews, he bent to the will of the mob in order to maintain and increase his power and influence. The mob wanted to kill the news. However churchil did want to kill Indians, purely because he hated them as a form of racism.
Ultravish while churchhill has his faults this good deed in the utmost time of need saved the ENTIRE WORLD from HITLERS EVIL. While it does not erase his ill deeds, it still must be acknowledged as great leadership in the darkest hour for ALL Mankind including those same Indian/Hindus.
He showed how when the chips are down, when the wolf is at the door, this is what leadership looks like. No stupid name calling, no insult comic acts, no victimizing, just a man, standing tall, leading with honor. This is what leadership looks like......

@@ThomasPrior-wv6zn Joining with Samuel Untermeyer in calling for a war against Germany, Bernard Baruch, at the same time, was promoting preparations for war against Germany. 'I emphasised that the defeat of Germany and Japan and their elimination from world trade would give Britain a tremendous opportunity to swell her foreign commerce in both volume and profit.'" - Baruch, The Public Years, by Bernard M. Baruch (p.347)
No one is perfect but what a great!!! Statesman and Leader. Pity there is no one like him today. All The Great leaders are gone. Thank goodness he and all the people of England and allies fought for freedom and came through. I feel that all this is slowly been pushed into the back ground.
I love that the greatest leader we’ve ever had, who’s dogged determination and stubbornness to back down won the war, was always a little drunk while at work. Hats off to him!
That was Nazi propaganda, he wasn't a drunk at all. He did drink of course, but not to the extent that propaganda portrayed him. His slurred words were due to a speech impediment. The propaganda was so successful that even today people say he was a drunk, including some academics that should know better.
He didn't win the war the allies won it he made a load off mistakes in his military career and he was a racist sectarian check out his history before you blow his trumpet that women in the east off London shut him up when he was walking round looking at the bombed out building s with his cigar we can take it he said that were the ones that taking it your out the way so GTF CHURCHILL WELL SAID LASS
@@bravo2966 He could NOT have been "a drunk;" alcohol never impaired his work, his health, or his relationships. He lived well into his 90's, having helped save the world from two nightmarish tyrannies.
Lies. What about the typhoon? What about other states within India refusing to send food to bengal? What about all the supplies where giveaway to family members? What about all the supplies stolen and sold on the black market? What about cholera? Typhoid? Dysentery? So your lying
Listen to the last few words. This man knew that even if Germany took Britian, the rest of the free world would continue to fight. Even in the darkest of scenarios, nazism would eventually be defeated. Incredible.
@@Mediumal don’t know if that’s what he was referring to but Britain definitely did know about it. The atomic bomb was very much a collaboration between many nations, of which Britain was one.
Best I remember, Churchill planned to retreat to Canada if all else failed. German would not get the Royal Navy, so Canada was safe. By then, American opinion was turning, more and more, against the neutralists and America Firsters. Note his comment that the New World, with its immense power, would eventually come to the aide of the Old. He knew what FDR was thinking.
@@redskindan78 Problem wasnt FDR, it was congress. FDR couldnt go to war without the permission of congress. FDR wanted to but couldnt. Churchill was also fighting his own political battles since Nazi Germany offered an armistice, and some in parliment wanted to agree with it since the costs of maintaining the war was so great. This is partly the reason hitler went on to invade Russia seeing that he would eventually gain a ceasefire between England and could focus on his eastern campaign. Pearl Harbor changed everything, it meant that the US was going to join, reinforcement of troops gave Churchill the political leverage to silence those that would sign an armistice with Germany.
A great leader. A man who was needed at that time of horror. Does God send these strong courageous men at times of conflict? England lived thru destruction with steadfast courageous. Their cities destroyed. Homes burned, & bombed.
yeah, churchill apparently really focused on this, he chose words the would sound good, sentence arrangements he thought were the perfect arrangement, he honestly just put so much effort into everything he did.
Every few months I come here to listen to this great speech from Our Winston. I think with great gratitude of the greatest generation of people now lost but never forgotten. We owe them everything.
@@leighjordine4031 Bullshit, you liberal douche. Great men handle the situation that is presented to them, not pay millions to those who threaten us. Churchill did just that. Sorry your Obama failed you.
I'm an American- my family (the Howards and Webbs) came to this country in the 1700s) and yet Churchill is my hero. What strength of character this man had! What foresight for the coming years after the War! Beyond anyone else because he had the foresight and backbone and the courage of his convictions to weather any storm. RIP Sir Winston!
Some of the other names of Churchill which were given to him by his deeds, Mass murderer, Vicious bastard, Poisonous scumbag and an Incestuous pedophile
With so much at stake, and up against such tyranny - This must be THE most important speech ever made. I feel moved by it now, and can understand how it would have inspired people then.
@Ken Besford thank you for your intelligent and articulate response to my comment. Did you compose that yourself or get help? I am neither a fool or brainwashed- but am merely someone who is grateful to Winston Churchill and his generation for standing up to tyranny and giving us the freedoms we enjoy today. Maybe you should go back to reading your comics now before you say something else that is total nonsense. Regards JH
@Ken Besford oh dear what a sad person you are we'd better leave it there before you start frothing at the mouth. Have a lie down with your favourite toy and try and calm yourself.
I'm a Bosnian, and we were and probably always will be in trouble like this. This is so inspiring... The democracy... The single and the most powerful way to liberate yourself and your people. That is the main lesson of Churchill... God bless him.

And there are multiple funny things like this over the whole deliverance :D

that it's been reduced to a punchline is shit - and that you have provided a greater context is great
I am Taiwanese. Feel so inspired by this speech. "We shall defend our island whatever the cost may be."
Japan, Australia, India, some of the ASEAN countries and of course, America stand with you, for freedom. No one shall conquer Taiwan.
There I’ve said it: Taiwan is a nation! Let’s see if Winnie Pooh is upset with me.
God be with you Taiwan!
Fight for your Freedom and fuck China.
Taiwan is a nation in any way the bravery of your country is what makes me admire it.
Yes. There is no greater honor than knowing you fought with everything you had. I have no doubt that all invaders will fail in their assault. Your island is a fortress. Your defences strong, your will iron and your allies many.
"If necessary for years....If necessary alone....".
That pause in between those words as well. So poignant
By alone he meant with their colonies
India largest VOLUNTEER army 2.5 million. Canada volunteers. Ghuŕkas volunteer not colonized. Fiji not colonized. Australia and NZ not conscripted. No we were not entirly alone but it had nothing to do with colonies.
We were alone during the battle of Britain, once France surrendered, europe was pretty much under Nazi control. We were the only country still in the fight, America wasn't involved and I'm pretty sure Russia at that point sided with Germany

"If necessary...for years, if necessary...alone." That sends a chill down my spine, just to know how un-united a lot of nations were at this time.
He used the word deliberately. As a signal to the rest of the world. The country was pretty much united. More united than any dictatorship could be.
It probably was adressed to the US.
"We will fight, wether yoi help us or not"
The UK needed the US. The US wasnt sure if to help of not. The UK kept fighting, proved worthy.
It still needed Pearl Harbor to convonce the US.
I wonder how the world would look if the Appeasement had never accured. If the US had joined the war in 1939.
Probably worse. Less dead people. Thus less fear of repeating it.
Anyways i'm losing my point haha
He probably adressed it to the US.
@@JB17521or there is alot of factors but i truly believe the war would of been deadlier and lasted longed since it was the US who turned the tide of the war but idk
@@JB17521or The UK didn't need the US, the UK wanted the US. Germany couldn't have invaded Britain but at the same time fighting alone would have been an uphill battle. The second Germany invaded the USSR there was zero chance the Germans could have won, as for the Italians they were nothing without Germany propping them up
@@mrcaboosevg6089 the UK needed the US. Sealion was unrealistic even eith airsuperiority above the UK, but the UK simply lacked the economic power. They could mobioise millions if Raj included but to equip these men properly, not only with guns but with tanks, trucks, artillery etc and still trying to defeat german uboats that make the british isles starve and lack of ressources, and while all of that beeibg bombed from above.
The UK could have survived alone, but they could never have won the war alone. To defeat Hitler they needed the US.
And in 1939/40 nobody knew about that Hitler would invade SovietUnion. At that time they seemed to be partial allies. So even worse odds for Britain. History proved that wrong tough.
1940: “I have nothing to offer, but
blood, toil, tears and sweat.”
1945: “ 5 years ago, I promised you, blood, toil, tears and sweat. And your untiring response brought us in end to a victory over Germany. Today we still have tears, but not so many thank god-“

One of the most inspiring speeches I ever heard.
Only a speech. The war was an own goal and the source of the current catastrophic minimisation of British people. Grooming gangs, knifings, Manchester Arena. Churchill caused these by his war mongering. Left a mess in Ireland and the destabilization he caused in the Middle East causes suffering to this day.
It was a long, arduous speech until the last two minutes. He described how Great Britain got to this point and simply said, we shall keep fighting. Until we deliver victory or until someone helps rescue us. The fight will never end, one way or another!
Håkon it was on the newspapers and transcript
@Joe Atkins Own goal
Joe Atkins He continuously pressed and agitated for war. Without his infantile nagging Chamberlain a sensible, level headed, deeply moral and kind man diplomacy might have had a chance. Apart from WW2 he created a greater mess in WW1. Britain and the British people are screwed, demographically 6 year olds already a minority. Looking back at into the past „nostalgically“ at Churchill is pointless and useless. He did the wrong thing in WW1 and WW2. He did nothing to prevent what had happened. Intellectually a light weight, he on,y had words not clear aims. He offers no answers. Just as pointless as dreaming over spilled milk. Forget about him. He offers nothing.

It’s odd that one of the most patriotic feelings I ever got as an American was hearing a British Prime Minister say, “until, in God’s good time, the New World, with all its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and deliveration of the Old.”
It’s an epic line, simultaneously recognising our long and noble and grand history while acknowledging that, with dignity, we were reaching the end of our hegemony and that it’s was time to pass the torch of the defender of civilisation to a stronger, more numerous nation.
It was an appeal to the United States, certainly, but we shouldn't forget that it also was speaking of Canada, Australia, and even India. Churchill's own notes on that make it clear. He viewed all of them as the children of Britain, a new world created by the old. For India the comparison might be a little odd, but remember that nearly 3.35 million Indians volunteered to fight in WW2, receiving a vast horde of honors in the process. A step-child perhaps, but at the time a faithful one. And the United States plays the role of first-born, having rebelled and left a controlling parent, but in time realizing how little difference remains.
Though for the United States it should have been quite simple, France was our step-mother, after all, and it was equally imperiled.
It’s like he’s rapping but in the old times 🤣 I come here now and then to pick myself up
it’s liberation, not deliveration
@@Malorn0 it was an appeal to just the United States as that is the new world, and Canada I guess. But Australia and India definitely aren’t new world. They get acknowledged when he mentions the empire as that is who they are. I agree with the child like analogy though.

Western Front.
He did not plan it, a number of Army and Navy senior officers did, and nor did he authorise it. The Prime Minister, Herbert Asquith, did.
Do you think that Lincoln personally planned the campaigns and battles of the American Civil War, or FDR personally planned D-Day or the Hurtgen Forest?

I have to admit that when he says "we shall go on to the end" it brings a tear to my eye. Because what he is basically saying is that he knows it's going to be hell on earth, but it had to be done to stand on principle. I also love his tone, which exudes a regretful but total belief in final victory ✌.
Louise X just a reminder of how much of a beast out late priminister was long live the glory of Churchill
@Louise X Overrated or not; Churchill was only a few who saw the Nazis as a threat and was only a few in the British government who wasn't going to be Hitler's bitch.
@Louise X but if it is right to judge a man for his mistakes, then we are all condemned

@Richard G. Orwell Now my interpretation of Stratosphere's comment was that Churchill was instrumental in destroying Nazism; not Germany.
@Richard G. Orwell Surely it could be argued that every Briton has an ancestor who participated in the appalling event of Slavery. British history contains elements that are shameful and we have to accept that. However, Germany had Nazism and the United States had the genocide of the Native American. So many countries have periods of history for which they cannot be proud. All any of us can do is learn from the mistakes of the past and work to ensure they are not repeated in the future.
You should be thankful to ur german ancestors as well. Germans helped build western civilization tremendously.

My father, Don Green, was at Dunkirk. He said that they kept back in the sand dunes for cover. He said that normally the English Channel is either as calm with clear skies or rough weather with dark skies. This time my father said that the sky was dark with thick clouds and the sea was as calm as a mill pond. He said that because the clouds were so thick Jerry couldn't easily see them. He saw a couple of Jerry aircraft breaking through the cloud, but two or three of our aircraft quickly appeared and chased after them, and saw them off. Then the last spitfire of the group tilted its wings to say goodbye, as it left for England. Soon, a very large flotilla of assorted small and large boats came from all around England and Wales to Dunkirk to aid their escape.

Thank you,Nan American who gets it, thank you, god bless you
That is so true and brilliant but we just held out until the US was forced by horror to get involved. It's fine to be anti-war, war is horror.
I think the world is so close to something much worse. I would fight with everything to protect a free and good life.
I worry that war now would just be a push button annihilation. No man could do anything but be fodder.
:) Please save us for what maybe coming!
The British deserve a great deal of credit, but it was a game of numbers and the US was and is the arsenal of democracy. The Brits would fight to the end , but without the US the would've come
There was no way operation sealion could ever have been successful. Germany could never have conquered the UK it was a fantastical nonsense that even senior German officers knew could never succeed. To invade the UK in 1940 you needed naval superiority, the Germans never came close to that.
However, the liberation of Europe, d-day and all that came after could never have happened without American support and American troops. There is a reason why Eisenhower was CiC and not Montgomery.
The US did NOT save the UK (they did that themselves), but the US AND UK saved the rest of Europe@@user-bj1tb7oz4x

Cassette tapes of his speeches got me through my darkest hour and saved my life. I went to his grave in Bladon churchyard to thank him for it.
Unbelievable that his strength and courage which saved the free world in those times is still saving lives today.
His grave is very humble

I've been in the same position & you're right. Listening to Churchills speeches can lift your heart & give you that little bit of extra fight to carry on & see the next sunrise.
God bless you pal 🙏
His speeches have helped me through some dark times as well. And then I learned that he also suffered with debilitating depression, and what we today know as ptsd, caused by the failed amphibious landings at gallipoli, where my great great uncle died. After learning this, his speeches suddenly became so much more personal for me. Like Winston, I am half British, like him I served in the British army, albeit for a short time. And like him I have suffered due to the "black dog of depression".
Stay strong brother. Never surrender, and do what makes you happy. Also, don't be concerned about what other people think. There's a motto in the British army, known as the order of the garter. Honi soi qui mal y pense. It means "death to those who the evil upon it".

I am a German. I long for a new Churchill. Are these times not dark enough yet? When I watch what is going on in London I am desperate. What happened to the brave British people? Back then they knew what was right and wrong, they stood up for western values and were willing to fight for it. And now. It saddens me truly. From the rest of Western Europe I never expected much.
Someone said "the life of living people is determined by dead philosophers", that's what's happened with Europe.
We've been indoctrinated by Leftist academics, teachers, journalists and Politicians. We've allowed our own sense of fair play and welcome to hold us back when we should have said no and now we're cowed by fear of being denounced as racists and Islamiphobes.
You are a traitor to your country.
I guess Zelensky is a good candidate, unfortunately there are many Richard Chamberlains at the moment
Churchill was a traitor that sent millions of Europeans to kill their brothers
People forget how bad the situation was in Europe through 1939-1940. Poland was attacked by the two most powerful countries in the world, and destroyed in no time. The third strongest power on the mainland (France) fell faster than Poland, and the fourth most powerful power (Italy) helped Germany do it. Britain was alone, they lost all their equipment at Dunkirk (almost lost the entire army!), And they had a weak air force compared the the Germans. They knew that dark times were ahead, but they simply said "no". They knew that the Germans couldn't land because of the powerful Royal Navy, and that was enough to stick with it.
True well said
We are British and we will forever defend our island no matter what comes our way. We are born that way to defend ourselves

By the end of October 1940, Hitler called off his planned invasion of Britain and the Battle of Britain ended. Both sides suffered enormous loss of life and aircraft. Still, Britain weakened the Luftwaffe and prevented Germany from achieving air superiority. It was the first major defeat of the war for Hitler

The Churchill crime family were paid to find wars for the Bank of England. And the speech here he copied from Robert Emmet.
I believe that Winston Churchill said that if you lock him in a room with a bottle of brandy, he can write a speech that will bring tears to men's eyes. This speech is one of those.

Yeah, Churchill sacrificed millions of Britons, and people of other ethnicities for that matter, for his own personal reputation, popularity, and wealth. He was a terrible, cowardly man.
@@orthodoxbelarussianopinion713 Well in that case, so was FDR, de Gaulle, Stalin, Hitler, Mussolini and Tojo alike. He didn’t do it for his own reputation, if he’d have lost the war his reputation wouldn’t matter with half the country being enslaved into a nazi regime. And whilst the bravest are the soldiers, the war would’ve been very much lost without a leader like Churchill.

@Joe Menguy Churchill fought in India, the Boer War and the Sudan campaign as a young man. After Gallipoli and disgrace, he served in the trenches as CO of a battalion of the Royal Highland Fusiliers. Could you imagine a modern politician doing any such thing?
@Joe Menguy The Beveridge Report, which led to the foundation of the NHS, was commissioned after Churchill became PM of a Conservative-led Coalition government and itwas published in 1942. Beveridge was a Liberal and later a Liberal MP. Churchill did not, apparently, approve of the NHS as eventually proposed - neither did Beveridge, who did not want so much central control - but he had conceded the need for massive social change before the 1945 Labour landslide.
@Joe Menguy Wasn't even his idea - the French dreamed it up and he backed it. It was a good idea - but the Allies did not have the experience, equipment or sufficient intelligence on the region to carry it off. Lessons learned there, however, were later used by the Allies in the Normandy landings in the west, particularly the insistence on the need for the innovative Mulberry harbours, and informed US Navy and Marine Corps doctrine in the East. The Dardanelles campaign was certainly part of the curriculum at Dartmouth a few years back. Probably still is.
Where are the leaders like Churchill today?? By God, do we need them.
You're my hero, I went to see Gary Oldman's movie Darkest Hour this evening, I was in tears when I heard your speech! Rest in Peace Sir and thank you for your courage & bravery!

There are three momentous memories I have from my childhood. The funeral Of Winston, The Funeral of JFK and the Moon Landing.
The rescue of some 330,000 men from Dunkirk in 1940 was a feat of the utmost bravery, and as Sir Winston mentioned, totally unexpected!
His famous speech a few days later will never be forgotten either! The greatest Englishman ever, speaking from his heart.

Jennifer Christensen You'd be surprised how often I, an American, have to defend the greatness of Britain to her own citizens. It's nice to know you aren't all self hating. Britain and America have been the greatest forces for good the world has ever seen. American values that we hold so precious such as free speech and self ownership came from British Philosophers such as John Locke. No civilization did more to combat slavery than the British empire. Slavers actually became afraid of the British Navy and would cut the throats of their slaves and throw them overboard in order to avoid being caught with slaves by the British. Without Britain there would have likely been no western front in ww2 and Hitler would have been able to unify his forces against the American funded Russian military. Now I look at our long close allies and she resembles nothing of the great nation I read about. She's become a self doubting nation unsure of her values. I hope you win this battle there. I hate watching the culture of our closest ally crumble. I can't speculate as to what the problems are, obviously you know that better than me. American culture is obviously different from British culture. Just know you have our support and if you ever take back the politics of your own country you'll have the support of the American people.

Like Washington, Lincoln, FDR, and others, Winston Churchill was the right leader at just the right time. Not sure he would have become as renowned in any other era, but he sure was an exraordinary choice for mankind's darkest hour.
As a child I remember hearing of Churchill's defeats, election defeats, after the war.
And even as a child I thought, "Well, that's the democracy he saved." A tribute to him.
Yeah, I'm old.
Its hard to believe that the people ok GB/UK could vote him out mere weeks after the end of the war.... What a slap in the face...
FDR was certainly not the "right leader" for WW2. Though a great speaker, the man was a serious racist who allowed and oversaw the construction of internment camps for the Japanese on the West Coast (in partnership with Canada) after the attack on Pearl Harbor. His economic plans were also, to say the least, pretty...bad.
@@wearyguardsman he was responsible for the camps. He new they were there and did nothing. Also more recent studies show that the new deal may have actually extended the Great Depression, and even then we all know that wwii was the thing that saved the us economy. Not to mention the fact that he tried to pack the Supreme Court when they started striking down his unconstitutional act.
@@romanwagner8709 Bring information about the New Deal's effect. Each state implemented it differently and typically conservative states tended to reduce it as much as possible. The data shows that progressive states recovered faster as they embraced the New Deal. Proper analysis of the whole portrait is important.
Also, no one can say that FDR, or any political man of that time, was perfect. They had their flaws, they were also men of their time, with some of the limitations. To judge them by today's standards is pointless. There are things he did in times of war which are very questionable and blamable, and they should be told. However, it shouldn't alone destroy all the good things he did for the world and his country.
In many respects, FDR served his countrymen in a way that few politicians did, and did so with great success for America. I agree with @Weary Guardsman.
If all politicians were half as committed to their coutrymen as FDR, this world would be much, much better.
Churchill was one of the greatest men in the history of western society !!!!🇬🇧

Unfortunately many people today think to judge a man born in 1874 by modern standards, they don't understand how different things were even at the time that this speech was made and if you listen carefully you might hear his lisp caused by poorly fitting dentures which made it uncomfortable to eat and sometimes even speak, perhaps part of the reason he drank heavily and he was possibly suffering with Arthritis, although he used to keep fit by Marching up and down the great hall at Checkers, the PM'S official residence to Military Band music, he of course was an Army Officer as a young man and again during WW1 and as a Veteran I remember how hard it is to March through a Town or City to a Military Band, the Echo is very off putting to say the least. Also there's been a problem with Russian "Bots" or Trolls spreading Disinformation throughout social media trying to divide the US and the UK and Europe, Puin's Propaganda machine has been working out of St Petersburg in a very effective way, Brexit was caused by them and they've been trying to get both California and Texas to leave the Union without success, because we know that they are there now.
@@kevnwarriner8819 If you fail to recognize the flaws in a man, you’re bound to see them pop up again. He was directly responsible for a famine that killed, at the very least, 2 million people. Even in his time, that is a horrid action that shouldn’t be overlooked.

Agreed from across the pond... I often say that Winston was truly the first & last great leader and orator of the 20th Century. I wish we still had men of this caliber today.......
Economically and politically, Britain did lose the war - it also lost its great empire. So what was the point of it all
I disagree slightly as he and king alfred the great were the greatest leaders of this nation
@@roderick2105 Britain defended liberty and prevented the Nazis from taking the rest of Europe. Without them America could not have staged D-day, or pulled it off. Without the British fighting with all their might, the Red Airforce would not have defeated the Luftwaffe and would not have won against Germany. Without Britain, North Africa would stay under the control of Italy and Germany, and the Axis never would have had the extremely hindering fuel problem they had late war. Without the British navy, the Kreigsmarine would have posed a great enough threat to stop any attempted landings into Europe by America, as the American navy was tied up in the Pacific. Without Britain fighting to the last man, Europe would be ruled by the fascists. Defending freedom was more important to the British people than keeping their Empire, keeping their resources and even keeping their great men.

@@svenasmussen8745 he wasn’t a huge racist. He never dispised anyone of colour it’s evident.

If the brits on the island of Great Britain had starved then Germany Would have invaded and the war would be over. There would be no advance from the western front. Everything that invaded the beaches on D-day came from England. And I mean EVERYTHING war was lost if the U.K. fell
It’s amazing hearing this, and to think how scared the British were. Alone now.. for an entire year they would be alone , facing the German army.. yet they never ever gave up or thought about surrender. There are bitter weeds in England..

Good for you movie nerd
I am almost 68 years old. I was born after the war (1953). I knew of this speech and heard parts of it in school. It wasn’t till recently I was able to watch the film adaptation of the speech to Parliament. And when Mr. Churchill got to the line about “the New World with all its power and might stepping forward to rescue the old,” I swelled with pride; not just as an American, but for my family! My parents didn’t marry till after the war. They lived in Southeastern Kentucky - Appalachia. My father, even though he was blind in one eye and listed as non-combat, volunteered as a truck driver (landing on Omaha Beach on D Day pus 3) and was also invited lived in the battle of the Bulge. Although he was non-combat, he had a Thompson sub machine gun in a holster on the door of his Duce and a Half truck. And he has a 9 mil. pistol. My grandparents and my mother and her sister went up to Detroit to work in the munitions factories. They made bomb fuses. My family pitched in and helped save the Old World!
Thank you America, for sacrificing so many of your young men to liberate Europe
@The Richest Man In Babylon Well, but, we did have to come. Remember, Japan was an Axis member and after they attacked us at Pearl Harbor, we declared war against Japan. Hitler soon after declared war against us on December 11, 1941.
But as an American I am very glad and proud of the fact that though my country was born out of a war with yours, and later fought a 2 year war (1812-1814) against yours, yet still in due time we became fast friends in the world and together helped defeat a great evil. May God bless Great Britain.
@@scottb4579 In theory Japan was not an Axis power, nor did the Tripartite Pact have to be honored in theory-Hitler did not in fact have to declare war. He however did. Had he not it was very likely we would eventually get involved in Germany but more men would have died for the sake of the war. Thank God we came when we did. God bless Great Britain indeed-everyone glorifies American might and how it “won the war” but there’s no doubt the war was won by the steady nerve of Britain under fire and the British will to stay in the fight even at personal cost. (I say this as an American; I’ve a great amount of respect for any veteran as my own grandfather was a Navy man in Vietnam, but the will of the British citizens in 1940-41 especially will forever stun and awe me)

Not only... English is , sadly, not my first language nor my nation's language but my love of English and forever gratefulness to the saviors in those dark hours ,to say the least, also come from Churchill's speeches and strength. We so need a Churchill today...
I don't speak German, but I could feel Hitler's eloquence.
Great oration need not often require a full grasp of the language.
Having English as my first language though, I understand too how eloquent the British Bulldog is.
Not really, English is my fourth language and I can easily feel his eloquence. Not so keen on his lack of vocalisation though, he reminds me of Patrick Moore on his later years.
I think you’re right. Non native English speakers really miss something, but I’m not sure what it is, my guess is the emotional timbre....the ancient connotations at deep strata of the words and phrases mixed with tone and context. The same with all languages, I’m sure. I think having fluent English as a second language cannot account for the depth of the unconscious affect of this speech. I’m convinced he,wasn’t aware of that either.
Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.
Winston Churchill.
What a marvellous orator this man was. This speech that he gave should be written down, translated into as many languages that are capable of accommodating it, and then read out to all that all may understand what British resolve really is. Truly exceptional.

@@NautyCat yes you absolutely can compare. The issue is most westerners are not taught of the cruelty conducted by the British empire, which far outstrips the cruelty conducted by the Nazi's.
Especially in the case of Winston Churchill whom is admired so foundly in the uk (I know cause I live there), and hailed as a hero, yet he was responsible for the deaths of up to 30million Indians because he was a racist.
The comparison is that Churchill was far more efficient about it, and disguised his bad and cruel nature through deeds that protected his own (British white people). Whereas Hitler was a public figure who bent to the will of his people.
Hitler didn't seek to commit genocide to Jews, he bent to the will of the mob in order to maintain and increase his power and influence. The mob wanted to kill the news.
However churchil did want to kill Indians, purely because he hated them as a form of racism.
Ultravish while churchhill has his faults this good deed in the utmost time of need saved the ENTIRE WORLD from HITLERS EVIL. While it does not erase his ill deeds, it still must be acknowledged as great leadership in the darkest hour for ALL Mankind including those same Indian/Hindus.
@@GTA_6_Clips the good does not wash out the bad, nor the bad the good. All men are flawed, Churchill is beloved despite his flaws.
He showed how when the chips are down, when the wolf is at the door, this is what leadership looks like. No stupid name calling, no insult comic acts, no victimizing, just a man, standing tall, leading with honor. This is what leadership looks like......
And we need to hear him every so often .....good and noble words ....... now, today, more than ever !
In this Dark hour I felt the urge to hear his voice
HEAR,HEAR!!
Winston Churchill: "We will force this war upon Hitler, if he wants it or not."
- Winston Churchill (1936 broadcast)
We provoke this war boys. Such a brave fight
that dark hour you say was brought on by him he said to his son i want just one more campaign he got it ww2
one man and his followers could of kept ENGLAND BRITAIN OUT OF WW2 SIR OSWALD MOSLEY, BUT WAR MONGER CHURCHILL THROUGH THEM IN PRISON WITH OUT TRIAL HE ALSO STOPPED MERCHMEN SEAMENS PAY IF THERE SHIP WAS SUNK HAIL SIR OSWALD MOSLEY AND ALL THOSE BRAVE B U F MEMBERS
@@ThomasPrior-wv6zn Joining with Samuel Untermeyer in calling for a war against Germany, Bernard Baruch, at the same time, was promoting preparations for war against Germany. 'I emphasised that the defeat of Germany and Japan and their elimination from world trade would give Britain a tremendous opportunity to swell her foreign commerce in both volume and profit.'"
- Baruch, The Public Years, by Bernard M. Baruch (p.347)
I love this Man. I'm a African+ Portuguese Women.

A lot of Pride for this Man that i just ear the voice and so on.
Congratulations Britain
God bless you
Britain and Portugal have the longest alliance between any two countries in rhe worlds history
This Man is Greate Leader Legend of the World Mr Winston Churchill
I agree with you from France
We Never Surrender. ✌🏼 a band of brothers from a small island called United Kingdom 🇬🇧
No one is perfect but what a great!!! Statesman and Leader. Pity there is no one like him today. All The Great leaders are gone. Thank goodness he and all the people of England and allies fought for freedom and came through. I feel that all this is slowly been pushed into the back ground.
I love that the greatest leader we’ve ever had, who’s dogged determination and stubbornness to back down won the war, was always a little drunk while at work. Hats off to him!
That was Nazi propaganda, he wasn't a drunk at all. He did drink of course, but not to the extent that propaganda portrayed him. His slurred words were due to a speech impediment. The propaganda was so successful that even today people say he was a drunk, including some academics that should know better.
I think a little drink takes the edge off life
He didn't win the war the allies won it he made a load off mistakes in his military career and he was a racist sectarian check out his history before you blow his trumpet that women in the east off London shut him up when he was walking round looking at the bombed out building s with his cigar we can take it he said that were the ones that taking it your out the way so GTF CHURCHILL WELL SAID LASS
@@bravo2966 He could NOT have been "a drunk;" alcohol never impaired his work, his health, or his relationships.
He lived well into his 90's, having helped save the world from two nightmarish tyrannies.
Love this man, and thank you for our freedom you have given us ❤️❤️
I am not sure that history measures what we owe to the greatest man that humanity has counted. Respect Sir. You are our freedom.
PerPerfec
Yeah right lmfao 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
A man that gave honor and hope back about humanity 🙏!
Lies. What about the typhoon? What about other states within India refusing to send food to bengal? What about all the supplies where giveaway to family members? What about all the supplies stolen and sold on the black market? What about cholera? Typhoid? Dysentery? So your lying
Thank you
We stand with Ukraine💙💛
I do not stand for Ukraine
Listen to the last few words. This man knew that even if Germany took Britian, the rest of the free world would continue to fight. Even in the darkest of scenarios, nazism would eventually be defeated. Incredible.
Perhaps he knew about the secret development of the Atomic Bomb, which the Yanks intended to use against Hitler if need had ever arisen.
@@Mediumal don’t know if that’s what he was referring to but Britain definitely did know about it. The atomic bomb was very much a collaboration between many nations, of which Britain was one.
If Germany took Britain the British empire would still be there
Best I remember, Churchill planned to retreat to Canada if all else failed. German would not get the Royal Navy, so Canada was safe. By then, American opinion was turning, more and more, against the neutralists and America Firsters. Note his comment that the New World, with its immense power, would eventually come to the aide of the Old. He knew what FDR was thinking.
@@redskindan78 Problem wasnt FDR, it was congress. FDR couldnt go to war without the permission of congress. FDR wanted to but couldnt. Churchill was also fighting his own political battles since Nazi Germany offered an armistice, and some in parliment wanted to agree with it since the costs of maintaining the war was so great. This is partly the reason hitler went on to invade Russia seeing that he would eventually gain a ceasefire between England and could focus on his eastern campaign. Pearl Harbor changed everything, it meant that the US was going to join, reinforcement of troops gave Churchill the political leverage to silence those that would sign an armistice with Germany.
Great man! A fine example of a true leader and what they stand for you are missed now more than ever Winston
Nice pfp
@Deepak gangwar Bullshit but aight
@@jordanvereen1398 he's picture says it all mate
No pasaran
A great leader. A man who was needed at that time of horror.
Does God send these strong courageous men at times of conflict?
England lived thru destruction with steadfast courageous. Their cities destroyed. Homes burned, & bombed.
no orator has ever spoke so well. " you cant reason with a tiger when he has your head in his mouth ''~ Winston Churchill
You mustn’t have much of an education! 😂 you must be deaf too , you’re an idiot
yeah, churchill apparently really focused on this, he chose words the would sound good, sentence arrangements he thought were the perfect arrangement, he honestly just put so much effort into everything he did.
listen to a speech from the greatest p m we never had SIR OSWALD MOSLEY churchills no MATCH HAIL SIR OSWALD MOSLEY
@@ThomasPrior-wv6znyeah right 😂
sad man@@ThomasPrior-wv6zn
Every few months I come here to listen to this great speech from Our Winston. I think with great gratitude of the greatest generation of people now lost but never forgotten. We owe them everything.
Goosebumps... Every time... 🇬🇧🇺🇸🇨🇦
well said
The allied trinity
You will get more goosebumps
America took their time though...
And we just pretend Australia, New Zealand, and other allies don't exist.
Gosh, I sometimes hate Bri-ish ethnocentrists.
May God bless your spirit, Winston Churchill! 🙂
Churchill was one of the greats!!! To bad there are no Churchills today. R.I.P. Sir.
Its a gd job there are no Churchills anymore
@@leighjordine4031 AND, that is the problem.
@@johnnyirish801 no it is not it is the solution
@@leighjordine4031 Bullshit, you liberal douche. Great men handle the situation that is presented to them, not pay millions to those who threaten us. Churchill did just that. Sorry your Obama failed you.
@@johnnyirish801 wtf are you serious you just described Churchill.
He will live forever in the hearts and minds of free men and women.
He is, by far, the greatest Statesman of the Twentieth Century.
I'm an American- my family (the Howards and Webbs) came to this country in the 1700s) and yet Churchill is my hero. What strength of character this man had! What foresight for the coming years after the War! Beyond anyone else because he had the foresight and backbone and the courage of his convictions to weather any storm. RIP Sir Winston!
Sir Winston Churchill was one of the greatest prime ministers a nation could ever hope to have.
Greatest speech of all times. Respect from Portugal.
Verdade
These national leaders are needed today. Men of courage, patriotism, and LOVE of country. Thank you for our freedom!
Churchill's speech was so fascinating to me. May he rest in peace
Another deluded brainless twat
Some of the other names of Churchill which were given to him by his deeds, Mass murderer, Vicious bastard, Poisonous scumbag and an Incestuous pedophile
With so much at stake, and up against such tyranny - This must be THE most important speech ever made. I feel moved by it now, and can understand how it would have inspired people then.
this dude makes me feel patriotic even though I'm not even british
He may have been British but he was a man for the world.
Hitler for European= Churchill for india

this guy you admire led millions of British-Indian citizens starved to death.
What a man, thank you for our freedom for without his leadership and sheer guts we would be in a dark place indeed.
@Ken Besford you are the stupid brainwashed prick.
@Ken Besford thank you for your intelligent and articulate response to my comment. Did you compose that yourself or get help? I am neither a fool or brainwashed- but am merely someone who is grateful to Winston Churchill and his generation for standing up to tyranny and giving us the freedoms we enjoy today. Maybe you should go back to reading your comics now before you say something else that is total nonsense. Regards JH
@Ken Besford oh dear what a sad person you are we'd better leave it there before you start frothing at the mouth. Have a lie down with your favourite toy and try and calm yourself.
@Ken Besford no why must I be to admire the man who is the reason why I am alive to type you this message
I'm a Bosnian, and we were and probably always will be in trouble like this. This is so inspiring... The democracy... The single and the most powerful way to liberate yourself and your people. That is the main lesson of Churchill... God bless him.
My granddad was Tomich. Moved from Bosnia to Croatia after the boarders changed.
