In this excerpt from the speech, what comparison does churchill make to justify allowing the united nations to raise and equip an armed force to maintain international peace? i have, however, a definite and practical proposal to make for action. courts and magistrates may be set up but they cannot function without sheriffs and constables. the united nations organisation must immediately begin to be equipped with an international armed force. in such a matter we can only go step by step, but we must begin now. i propose that each of the powers and states should be invited to delegate a certain number of air squadrons to the service of the world organisation. these squadrons would be trained and prepared in their own countries, but would move around in rotation from one country to another. they would wear the uniform of their own countries but with different badges. they would not be required to act against their own nation, but in other respects they would be directed by the world organisation. this might be started on a modest scale and would grow as confidence grew. i wished to see this done after the first world war, and i devoutly trust it may be done forthwith. font sizes
