Neutral Ireland's Calm Response to Churchill the Warmonger (de Valera's May 1945 Speech)
Consider how this was the reply made by the tiny nation of Eire to a still fairly intact British Empire, and you will begin to appreciate the courage required to remain neutral throughout the Second "World War", and to subtly criticize the Allies (and refuse to praise their "victory") in the way de Valera does in this speech -- the Allies that only months earlier had firebombed numerous German cities (like Hamburg, Dresden and Berlin), and the hundreds of thousands of civilians and refugees in them, into almost total oblivion, partly because they were thirsting for revenge, and partly because they wanted to wreak such havoc and demoralization that Germany would never again pose threat to the rising New World Order. With a musical "bonus" at the end.
