working eough, that there are too many strikes, too many "5th columns" which   
are manipulating them inside the country.  There is too much feeling that time  
is being lost in parliamentary procedure, in deciding on such or such a measure,  
no matter how urgent and indispensable; too much feeling that men will never  
be sent to fight, to keep a wave of discouragement from coming to weaken us  
               and plunge us into a decline.                
 
                                                            
 
 
As to myself, I am convinced that Hitler is going to accomplish the  
impossible in order to assure himself mastery of the Mediterranean as soon as  
possible.  He is going to throw armored divisions against Egypt, the Suez Canal  
and the Red Sea.  He is undoubtedly going to occupy Lisbon also and cross to   
the other side of the strait of Gibraltar, to hold the Strait at his mercy.    
And when he has become master of all Europe, he will turn toward you Americans   
and say to you: "I am leaving Great Britain her empire freely; I am only taking   
from her the Mediterranean islands that did not belong to her.  Let me organize  
Europe as I see fit and let us make peace."  And then what will you say?  That  
              is the maneuver that is planned.
