At this hour – one which I must confess I have feared beyond all others, one of which I have a deep, paralyzing fear – we face the most terrible moment in human history.

We stand now at a great abyss – a great, dark chasm is before us.

We stare into the face of the most evil force imaginable. Into the face – of an enemy, that at the core of every man and woman lays a raw, animal fear.

One that seeks purely to control, and destroy what it cannot have.

It seeks absolute, undisputed power for its own sake, as a means unto itself, as an end unto itself, and justified by itself.

Life, joy, happiness, wealth – are nothing, worthless, if not for reveling in even greater power.

Power, wrath, might, and tyranny – are the sole goals of this purely corrupt and malevolent evil – that even at the lowest moment of sorrow and self-hatred, craves naught but to crush the necks of every man, woman, and child under its heel.

You have seen how far they are willing to go – entire cities, millions dead – burnt, choked, torn apart, the bodies of children nothing more than food for vermin. The bodies of women lay raped as their children weep, the bodies of fathers hung and gutted above.

There is no mercy in their minds, no semblance of human empathy, no sign of human compassion, no trace of sympathy. An unfeeling, uncaring, unmerciful, unstoppable, and purely megalomaniacal marauding mass of pure evil.

George Orwell once described an enemy uninterested in the good of others, uninterested in life, luxury, long-life, but solely interested in nothing but pure power. This is the enemy we face today.

And that is why today – we, as one people, one human being, one race, one world, must unite – one group, one force, one nation, one people.

We must not allow the enemy to stoke old hatreds based on skin, religion, and country. We must not allow them to divide us through fear, or they will conquer us in death. We must not let our own petty conflicts tear each other apart while they tear the entire world apart. We must never give in, never surrender, and never succumb.

This is our world, our land, our soil – and we will fight to the death, to the last bullet, to the last man, to the last drop of blood for each house, each city, each field, each canyon, each desert, each mountain, each lake and ocean, for EVERY LAST INCH, until the enemy's stink has been completely and utterly wiped clean from OUR WORLD.

This is the defining battle, the penultimate conflict, the final encounter to decide the fate of the entire human race, to determine the future for our planet, our people, our children. We face an enemy that has worked for hundreds, maybe even thousands of years, to utterly dominate us and destroy what makes the human race great.

I promise you that today is the day when their hands are broken.

And tomorrow will be the day when their empire begins to die.
