In words of strengths, the speech displayed the level of certitude vital in fight rhetoric. Seizing a state to fight and such a decision demands certainty, and the Head clarified such certainty across his address. The speech itself is maximum of strongly-worded, mainly unsupported assertions. As claims are usually reinforced by upholding facts, fight rhetoric could clarify that this is not always the case.
