Analysis of President Bushs Address to a Joint Session of telling and the American People - Speech or Presentation ExamplePresent during the speech be top government officials including departmental secretaries and different states legislative officials. The speech is a reaction to the 9/11 attack and a declaration of War against Alqaeda and the Taliban regime. The speech takes place on 20th September, 2001, only nine days after terrorists hijacked two American planes and humbled them on the twin towers. The speech is also serves to assurance the great deal of America that America is strong and cannot be shaken by its enemies (terrorists). Furthermore, the speech is aimed at reassure Muslims across the globe that America is not against Islam but is against those who go against Allahs commands by wrecking havoc on innocent large number. In my view, the speech is held at an seize time and setting considering that the American people at the time were in grief having lost loved one s and property beyond value. The American people also needed an assurance that their government was in action and would take measures to avoid similar happenings as those of 9/11. The speech is said at an appropriate setting and the message delivered as weighty as it should have been.

Mood change anger, tonal variation, hands move, and use of gestures Al Qaeda is to terror what the mafia is to crime.But its goal is not making money its goal is remaking the world -- and imposing its radical beliefs on people everywhere. The terrorists practice a fringe form of Islamic extremism that has been rejected by Muslim scholars and the vast majority of Muslim clerics -- a fringe movement that perverts the peaceful teachings of Islam.The terrorists directive commands them to kill Christians and Jews, to kill all Americans, and make no distinction among military and civilians, including women and children. This group and its leader -- a person named Osama bi n Laden -- are linked to many other organizations in different countries, including the Egyptian Islamic Jihad and the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan.There are thousands of these terrorists in more than 60 countries.They are recruited from their own nations and neighborhoods and brought to camps in places like Afghanistan, where they are trained in the tactics of terror.They are sent back to their homes or sent to hide in countries around the world to plot evil and destruction.
