All Iraqis can now come together and reject violence and build a new Iraq. These statements are claiming that finally, Iraq will be able to regain its sovereignty and build a new country without the oppression of a tyrant looming over them. Phrasing/Meaning We've come to this moment through patience and resolve and focused action. And that is our strategy moving forward. The war on terror is a different kind of war, waged capture by capture, cell by cell, and victory by victory.In this statement, George Bush is stating that we have been successful in capturing Hussein because of our dedication to resolve this issue and our focus on it. However, the war on terror is different from a regular war because the main goal is to terrorize the people and is based more on capture and imprisonments than simple military action.

Major Premise 12The goals of our coalition are the same as your goals -- sovereignty for your country, dignity for your great culture, and for every Iraqi citizen, the opportunity for a better life.

We still face terrorists who would rather go on killing the innocent than accept the rise of liberty in the heart of the Middle East.

Essentially, George Bush is stating the fact that even though Hussein was captured, there will still be terrorists who would rather kill in his name, then to accept liberty in the Middle East. This gives an emotional appeal because it sad to hear that terrorists kill the innocent for their distinct beliefs. Pathos

Our security is assured by our perseverance and by our sure belief in the success of liberty. And the United States of America will not relent until this war is won.

George Bush is stating we believe in liberty so much that our security is established off these beliefs and because of this American will not surrender until the war is won. This give a logical appeal since we know that America will not surrender first. Logos

The goals of our coalition are the same as your goals sovereignty for your country, dignity for your great cultureOur servicemen and women and our coalition allies have faced many dangers in the hunt. Our security is assured by our perseverance and by our sure belief in the success of liberty.

Throughout the speech, there is a constant use of our and your. Primarily, George Bush is attempting to unite the people together as a family with the usage of the word our.

These lines are powerful because they center on the main key points of the speech. They are also effective on the audience because there informative and motivating. Powerful Lines Our servicemen and women and our coalition allies have faced many dangers in the hunt for members of the fallen regime, and in their effort to bring hope and freedom to the Iraqi people.This is one of my favorite lines because Bush gives recognition to servicemen and women who fought during the war instead of trying to give himself credit.All Iraqis who take the side of freedom have taken the winning side. The goals of our coalition are the same as your goals -- sovereignty for your country, dignity for your great culture, and for every Iraqi citizen, the opportunity for a better life.This is another favorite line because he compares our American coalition to Iraqi goal giving the sense of equality and unity between the two.
