Persuasive Speech On War

Today, we stand as proud Americans, and use our free speech as a weapon, the government is concerned about gay marriage, abortion, and many other issues. Another issue that is usually neglected is that many of our beloved veterans are homeless, even after all that they have done for our country. This is not what this was meant for and I believe we are abusing our right of free speech. Our veterans did not fight these wars for us to bring another war out of something won. That is what we are leading to. Another war all because we don’t know how to use our valuable prizes.

Gentlemen, I am here in front of you today to discuss the recent events in Europe and Japan which have resulted in victory for the Allied countries, and the end of six long, hard years of war. Today, the 16th of August, marks a new era for our country; Australia has risen from our days of economic hardship and political inferiority to become a land of promise.

Attention-getter: “School ownership is our goal.” Who on earth would want to have full control over a school and its students? The military would

Wars are often glorified in tone to give praise and respect for those on the battlefields. There is an overall understanding that there are sacrifices needed in order to accomplish a larger goal. Excluded from this understanding is the realization that the effects of war

Have you heard about Korean War, which occurred in June, 25, 1950? The conflict between ideologies caused this war with tens of millions killed, millions of families separated, the country reduced to rubble, and a huge permanent scar on Korea’s culture. Then, Vietnam War, Gulf War, or Iraq war can sound familiar to you. Let’s change point to the number of dead bodies from wars themselves. Can you guess how many people got killed during all of those war periods? Only for Vietnam War, the true civilians of Vietnam War were two millions in the north, and another two millions in the south, and military causalities were 1.1 million killed and six hundreds thousand wounded during war. To finish a war, how many innocent people and soldiers have

“If America’s soul becomes totally poisoned, part of the autopsy must read ‘Vietnam’.” Today I invoke the late Martin Luther King Jr’s words with full knowledge of the gravity they carry. My fellow Americans, the Vietnam war is undeniably the greatest moral catastrophe to have ever plagued our beloved nation; it has done nothing but divide us domestically and humiliate us internationally. As a result, for the sake of America’s conscience and dignity, the National Mobilisation Committee implores the Democratic Party to immediately de-escalate or even withdraw America’s military presence in South Vietnam. Yet I understand that the onus is upon me to prove that the National Mobilisation Committee’s path of peace is superior to President Johnson’s path of war. Consequently, I will rebut President Johnson’s attempts to defend the war. Furthermore, it has come to my attention that my pacifism has shaken my fellow protestors’ faith in my ability to bring about positive change. As a result, I will also use this speech to argue in favour of nonviolent protest, as it is the only way for those in power to hear our voices.

Conservatives, Feuillants, Jacobins and the People of France, the time for peace has come. Our once great nation is now deeply wounded and divided. If we want to heal this nation, we must first heal ourselves. We must be wounded healers, instead of the wounded warriors that we are. We must set aside our differences and work together to make France into the great nation it once was.

A man it held up by a rope, blindfolded, and guards force him to stay awake while embarrassing and chastising him for hours; on end until he confesses or reveals information that will be helpful in fighting the War on Terror. The image, I am setting up for you is one of the techniques written in the torture memo on how to deal with terrorists and fight the War on Terror. When the memo got leaked, it created controversy among Americans. They saw how these alleged prisoners were being tortured. This incident raised many questions such as, how does the state get the power to use violence? How is this act of violence legal? And how is the war on terror so different that they have to change their techniques for war? To answer this question,

"You're a feminist!" Okay, so what? It is my belief, that women are equal to men

Can participating in war ever be morally acceptable? Many people in history have asked this question and attempted to answered it. This has resulted in different theories and opinions on the topic, the most widely known being Just War position. It explains when a country should go to war, why they should go to war, and what they should be permitted to do during wartime (Demy). Many wars in history have show the devastation that man’s cruelty to one another can cause. The best example of this is World War 2, in which many millions of people were killed. Many atrocities were committed during the war, the worst, of course, was the holocaust. Had all sides to this war followed the Just War position, the devastation would not have been as great

During the United States' wars in the middle east alone, an estimated two hundred and ten thousand civilians have died violent deaths, and the number of deaths caused by inadequate resources and an inhabitable environment is thought to exceed that number. During the Vietnam War “as many as 2 million civilians on both sides” were slaughtered, as well; the destruction of war does not only affect those who wear a uniform. These deadly and unnecessary fights, where hands slippery with blood scrabble to grasp at power, fail to protect anyone, and they consume life and light and peace in exchange for resources that are far less precious – such a trade goes against all of the goodness in human nature. Wherever war goes, ruin, irreparable pain, and need become inevitable, leaving those who have no part in the war to bear the brunt of the burden, so governments should find themselves quite reluctant to employ military

(Waves to Witten, Warren and Boone) Thank you, Jill Stein, for your very eloquent address. (Stares at Jill) Throughout my time as a public servant I have never met a more distinguished legislator and I will truly miss you. (Pauses, turns to the Audience) My fellow Americans, when I stood on this stage nearly two decades ago, I addressed this convention for the first time. (Reflects, points toward the Audience) I asked you, the American people, to renew our government's commitment to economic justice, to inspire the fair and lasting prosperity of our nation. (Slowly raises Hand) Today, I ask you to continue that commitment, as I endorse Kyle Kulinski, the next President of the United States! (Pauses during Applause) Thanks to Kyle’s campaign,

Yes, have our current military. Provides a safety net for all and makes sure that we have no foreign threats. Keeps our freedom and independence. It is an extension to providing a free environment for all. 81% support and like the military overall (Forbes.com)The military is there to serve and protect America as a whole as well. They defend the constitution when oath is taken (Opening phrase is, I will support & defend the Constitution (In Military.com) ) Without that, there is a sense of vulnerability and others may perceive us as weak and easily manipulated. With a force, we will have a chance against others and a way to protect our citizens. Our current constitution provides Congress the authority to shape the different military branches & their conducts, basically support the military. Without basic protection, how can we even have a slim chance of surviving? Not everyone can protect themselves like the young, old, sick, & disabled. They play a huge part in promoting political agenda, protecting economic interests, internal population control, construction, emergency services, social ceremonies, and guarding important areas. Also plays a huge role in power projection.Also function as a discrete subculture within a larger society through the development of infrastructures such as housing, schools, utilities, logistics, health/medical, law, food production, finance, & banking. NECESSITIES. Gives unfortunate a chance at a job with support and honor. 1.4 million serve (Time)

For example, using a leftover coffee can for loose nails or screws, or even washing and reusing a plastic zip-loc bag instead of throwing it in the garbage. Thrift shopping is a way of reusing someone else’s unwanted goods. As I spoke about in an earlier speech about thrifting, I included many locations and ways to thrift, also the benefits to the shopper and the donator. One place in particular was shopping at the local boys and girls club. I personally shop there, keeping my eyes open for a good deal. For example, the pair of jeans that I am wearing today was purchased from this store just a few months ago. I paid only $8.00 for this pair of Lucky Jeans and according to buckle.com, a retailer for lucky jeans the retail price is $99.00 that is a savings to me of $91.00.I am not the type to worry about name brands, but quality usually does cost more. If I can get a quality pair of jeans at a fraction on the price, I am glad to shop at the thrift store. I am thankful to the person that made the donation of the lucky jeans and they can benefit from that donation. According to the IRS webpage, IRS. Gov it explains that an individual can donate items like clothing, household furniture and furnishings, a car or boat, even taxidermy. The donations are appraised, by the donator, and recorded. At the time of filing taxes if the donation equals at least $500 for the year, the donator may take advantage of the

There is one problem however for consequentalists as to whether war could cause more suffering that solving the problem. Utilitarian defenders then say that some of these wars increased pain and suffering. If people will go against wars then, happiness will be the ultimate result. In this theory, killing is justified if it will eventually give happiness in the end. An individual can act the way he wants but should be careful not to
