According to Wikipedia... "It was a great inspiration to an embattled United Kingdom as it entered what was probably the most dangerous phase of the entire war. It was given in the wake of the withdrawal of the British Expeditionary Force from France at Dunkirk, after it was cut off by the massive German breakthrough at Sedan, France, and as France reeled, shortly to be overcome. In it he tried to temper the national euphoria engendered by this seemingly miraculous delivery (almost the entire army was rescued, a feat thought most improbable beforehand), and send a message to the rest of the world that there would be no negotiated settlement." IF YOU FIND THE ABOVE HARD TO UNDERSTAND"whe shall fight on the beaches" was given by Sir Winston Churchill at the House of Commons on the 4th of June, 1940. This speech was given as Churchill was preparing his country to save Europe and the World from Nazi control, and is probably the most influential and inspirational speech of the 20th Century.
