Parody of Churchillâs June 4, 1940 speech
I have, myself, full confidence that if all do their duty, if nothing is neglected, and if the best arrangements are made, as they are being made, we shall prove ourselves once again able to grovel in our home, to ride out the storm of war, and to live peacefully with tyranny, possibly for years, until we are killed.... Even though large tracts of the world and many old and famous States have fallen or may fall into the grip of the Islamofascists and all the odious apparatus of their rule, we shall not flag or fail.
We shall go on to the end, we shall appease in the EU, we shall appease on the seas and oceans, we shall appease with growing confidence and growing weakness in the air, we shall defend almost nothing, especially if it costs lives or treasure, we shall appease on the beaches, we shall appease on the landing grounds, we shall appease in the fields and in the streets, we shall appease in the hills; we shall quickly surrender, and even when, although I do not for a moment believe this will happen for a few years at least, this land or a large part of it is subjugated and in dhimmitude, then our forces beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the Americans, will refuse to carry on the struggle, until, in Godâs good time, they too would cease the rescue and the liberation of we old ones.
