Technically, Rhetoric is a tactic, not a strategy.
Anyways, the dictionary defines rhetoric as "the art of effective or persuasive speaking or writing, esp. the use of figures of speech and other compositional techniques."
Rhetoric is an effective tactic because it motivates people to fight in wars or allows for popular support to swing your way (common themes of rhetoric are patriotism, and doing your duty, or being a 'man' or making a difference, or pursuing evil enemies that want to eat your children). A lot of wars have been waged because the parties that wanted the wars have been effective at employing rhetoric. Rhetoric itself is a tactic (not a strategy) however there are strategies formed around using rhetoric, and rhetoric as a tactic has been an important part of strategies used to eventually win wars.

What strategies were most effective in France during World War 2?
France did not have differing strategies. They were defeated by Germany in six weeks and played no further significant role in the war. France had a defensive strategy at the start of the war, which was (spectacularly) not effective. Apparently the few troops who were left in a position to get in the German army's way *did* figure out a battle strategy that could have been effective, but there weren't enough of them at that point to use it to stop the German advance; it was apparently used again later in the war, after D-day. I didn't really understand the description of this strategy; to read it yourself, see "why was France defeated so quickly in WW2?"
