The best way to solve conflict is by speaking up, just like Wiesel. He kept a positive mentality and made certain everyone’s voice was heard too.
Churchill begins by giving context to the previous happenings of the war, in order to allow people to grasp the power of the German forces when it comes to invasion. Churchill states that “there has never been a period… of which we boast when an absolute guarantee against invasion… could’ve been given to our people”.

These words
