"The Sinews of Peace" was the speech delivered by Winston Churchill on March 5, 1946, before US President Harry S. Truman in a high school in Missouri.

In the speech, Churchill literally expressed: "A world organization has already been erected for the prime purpose of preventing war, UNO, the successor of the League of Nations, with the decisive addition of the United States and all that that means, is already at work. We must make sure that its work is fruitful, that it is a reality and not a sham, that it is a force for action, and not merely a frothing of words, that it is a true temple of peace in which the shields of many nations can someday be hung up and not merely a cockpit in the Tower of Babel."

The other options of the question were A) Churchill employs a metaphor that compares atomic weapons to shields, thereby supporting his assertion that the United States and other western democracies only developed atomic weapons to defend themselves. B) Churchill uses a metaphor that compares the defunct League of Nations to the Tower of Babel, thereby suggesting that past attempts to bring diverse cultures and nations together were foolish and destructive. C) Churchill employs a metaphor that compares the world's future to a path that leads to one of two destinations, war or peace, in order to insist that its leaders bring their people in the proper direction.
