No. 5 Ronald Reagan 1987

"General Secretary Gorbachev, if you seek peace, if you seek prosperity for the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, if you seek liberalization: Come here to this gate! Mr. Gorbachev, open this gate! Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!"

No. 4 Emperor Hirohito 1945

"It is according to the dictates of time and fate that we have resolved to pave the way for a grand peace for all the generations to come, by enduring the unendurable and suffering the unsufferable."

No. 3 Josef Goebbels 1943

"I ask you: Do you want total war? If necessary, do you want a war more total and radical than anything that we can even imagine today?"
"... Now, people, rise up, and let the storm break loose!"

No. 2 Franklin Roosevelt 1941


"Yesterday, December 7th, 1941 - a date which will live in infamy - the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air forces of the Empire of Japan ... "


"I believe that I interpret the will of the Congress and of the people when I assert that we will not only defend ourselves to the uttermost but will make it very certain that this form of treachery shall never again endanger us ..."


"I ask that the Congress declare that since the unprovoked and dastardly attack by Japan on Sunday, December 7th, 1941, a state of war has existed between the United States and the Japanese Empire."

No. 1 Winston Churchill 1940


"If we fail, then the whole world ... will sink into the abyss of a new Dark Age made more sinister, and perhaps more protracted, by the lights of perverted science. Let us therefore brace ourselves to our duties, and so bear ourselves, that if the British Empire and its Commonwealth last for a thousand years, men will still say, 'This was their finest hour.' "

mkuu ukijaribu kuangalia hiyo list, ingawa kweli zinasisimua lakini zimekosa mlinganisho kwa kutokua na hata mwafrika mmoja, hiyo inamaana kua sisi waafrika hatuna viongozi wahamasishaji??

Nadhani watakuwepo wengi tu kwa mfano Mandela, lakini ile hotuba ya Mwalimu ya kutangaza nchi kuingia vitani na nduli Idi Amin kwa kweli ukipata nafasi ya kuisikiliza unaweza kusisimka mwili. Yule Mzee alikuwa na kipaji kikubwa sana cha kuongea na kuhamasisha Wanachi wake.

Mwalimu alikuwa kiboko kwa speech...yeye na rafiki yake President JF Kennedy walikuwa na speech za mtindo unaofanana, angalia exerpt [last paragraph] ya speech ya kusisimua mwili na akili ya JF President Kennedy iitwayo: "We choose to go to the moon..." ya mwaka 1962 pale Rice Stadium...

"Well, space is there, and we're going to climb it, and the moon and the planets are there, and new hopes for knowledge and peace are there. And, therefore, as we set sail we ask God's blessing on the most hazardous and dangerous and greatest adventure on which man has ever embarked. Thank you"

Ukuriani tunawaita hawa ndo wanaumeee, sio viarabu vinapigana kiuoga kutwa kuua watoto na na wapita njia huku vikijiita vina ujasiri huku vimefunika uso na viremba kama mwali anayeenda kuolewa.

 

[BOB OS]

Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death!

Patrick Henry
