This paper explains how President Bush's speech is an extension of his foreign policy. All forms of rhetoric in his speech are carefully explored to show the extent to which he is trying to build a coalition in the name of his ill-rhetoric.
From the Paper:
"In President Bush's speech, "No Nation Can Be Neutral in This Conflict," he praises the support of the nations that are helping the fight against terrorism. In his address to those attending, the Polish, Central and Eastern Nations, at the Warsaw Conference on Combating Terrorism, the president uses many forms of rhetoric to set the tone of his speech. The title alone, "No Nation Can Be Neutral," sets the tone that there can be either "good or bad." A nation can either be on the side of American or the side of terrorist, or in other words, "If you are not with us you are against us." The tools of persuasion the president uses to accomplish winning the war on terror includes logical persuasion in the soundness for the move to action, emotional reactions to justify support, and his credibility as president of the United States to act in reasonable cause against terror."
