Most of Churchill's December 26, 1941, speech to Congress was an attempt to summarize the course of the war thus far—from a British viewpoint. His aim was to convince the American public that the wisest plan was to create an effective alliance that could win the war and preserve the peace afterwards. He added that the best war news of all was that “the United States, united as never before, have drawn the sword for freedom and cast away the scabbard.”
