1、组织实施空袭英语演讲稿Good morning. Last night, the United States carriedout an air strike in Raqqa, Syria, targetingMohammed Emwazi the ISIL executioner known asJihadi John.We cannot yet be certain if the strike wassuccessful.But let me be clear. I have always said that we woulddo whatever was necessary, what
2、ever it took, totrack down Emwazi and stop him taking the lives ofothers.We have been working, with the United States, literally around the clock to track him down.This was a bined effort. And the contribution of both our countries was essential.Emwazi is a barbaric murderer. He was shown in those s
3、ickening videos of the beheadings ofBritish aid workers. He posed an ongoing and serious threat to innocent civilians not only inSyria, but around the world, and in the United Kingdom too.He was ISILs lead executioner, and let us never forget that he killed many, many Muslims too.And he was intent o
4、n murdering many more people.So this was an act of self-defence. It was the right thing to do.Today, I want to thank the United States: the United Kingdom has no better friend or ally.And I want to pay tribute to all those professionals in our own security and intelligenceagencies and armed forces f
5、or the extraordinary work they do on behalf of our country. Onthis, as so often, theyve been working hand-in-glove with their American colleagues. We areproud of them.If this strike was successful, and we still await confirmation of that, it will be a strike at theheart of ISIL. And it will demonstr
6、ate to those who would do Britain, our people and our alliesharm: we have a long reach, we have unwavering determination and we never forget aboutour citizens.The threat ISIL pose continues. Britain and her allies will not rest until we have defeated thisevil terrorist death cult, and the poisonous
7、ideology on which it feeds.Today though, my thoughts, and the thoughts of our country, are with the families of those whowere so brutally murdered.Japanese citizens Kenji Goto and Haruna Yukawa, American journalists Steven Sotloff andJames Foley and aid worker Abdul-Rahman Kassig.And of course our o
8、wn citizens. Aid workers David Haines and Alan Henning. Nothing will bringback David and Alan. Their courage and selflessness stand in stark contrast to the emptycallousness of their murderers.Their families and their friends should be proud of them, as we are. They were the best ofBritish and they will be remembered long after the murderers of ISIL are forgotten.Thank you.
