What was Winston Churchill's most famous speeches and why?

In Churchill's Sinews of Peace Speeech on 5 March 1946 at Westminster College in Fulton, Missouri is often regarded as one of the most important in his long and valued service to the free world. Russia marks this date as the start of the Cold War, and it is often referred to as the Iron Curtain speech. In it he spells out his vision of the post WWII conditions that the world faced. Most of the Nations and very few US citizens were aware, that as Sir Winston said: The United States stands at this time at the pinnacle of world power. It is a solemn moment for the American Democracy. Some historians consider Churchill's defiant and motivational speeches to the people of the United Kingdom in the House of Commons while awaiting an invasion from Germany to have more uplifting and less threatening. His Blood, Toil, Tears and Sweat speech, and the We Shall Fight on the Beaches, are both classics.


Why was Winston Churchill so important in Britain during World War 2?

It was Churchill's sheer force of will that saw Britain through the dark days of 1940. After the loss of the BEF in Europe, and then Dunkirk, Churchill would still not think about treating with Hitler. He realized that Hitler was evil incarnate. Furthermore, Churchill also knew that to maintain the British Empire, it had to be from a position of strength. If Britain had sued for peace, then India would surely have rebelled and left. Other elements of the British Empire would have followed. Churchill also fostered a very close friendship with FDR. This would turn out to be very advantageous throughout the war
