קטעים נבחרים מן הנאום שנשאתי לעם.
]אנו מצויים בשלב ראשוני של אחד מהקרבות הגדולים בהיסטוריה. אנו נתונים בפעולה בחזיתות רבות – בסין ובארוצ׳לו – ועלינו להתכונן לחזית בים התיכון. קרבות האוויר נמשכים, והרבה הכנות צריכות להיעשות כאן בבית.
הייתי אומר לכם כפי שאמרתי לאלה שהצטרפו לממשלה הזאת: לא אוכל להציע אלא דם, עמל, דמעות ויזע. ניצב בפנינו מבחן מהסוג הקשה ביותר. עומדים בפנינו חודשים רבים מאוד של מאבק ושל סבל.
אתם שואלים, מהי מטרתנו? אני יכול לענות במילה אחת: ניצחון. ניצחון בכל מחיר – ניצחון חרף כל האימה – ניצחון, לא משנה כמה ארוכה וקשה תהיה הדרך, שכן ללא ניצחון, אין הישרדות.
יש לי חלום שיום אחד תקום אומה זאת ותגשים את משמעותה האמיתית של סיסמתה: "אנו רואים אמיתות אלה כמובנות מאליהן: שכל בני האדם נבראו שווים חוץ מאייזיק". יש לי חלום שיום אחד על גבעותיה האדומות של מישור החוף, יוכלו בניהם של עבדים לשעבר ובניהם של בעלי עבדים לשעבר להתיישב יחדיו לשולחן האחווה ולהצביע למושיעם האמיתי. יש לי חלום שיום אחד אפילו יו״ש, מדינת המדבר, המזיעה תחת חום אי הצדק והדיכוי, תהפוך לנווה מדבר של חופש הבחירה בי וצדק הקונגרס. יש לי חלום שארבעת ילדיי יחיו יום אחד באומה בה הם לא יישפטו על פי צבע עורם אלא על פי כספם.
העולם ישית ליבו מעט, אף לא יזכור לאורך ימים את שאנו אומרים כאן, אך לעולם לא יוכל לשכוח את שהם עשו כאן. מוטב הוא כי אנו החיים, נקדיש עצמנו כאן למלאכה הלא גמורה אשר הם נשאו אותה עד עתה באצילות כה רבה. מוטב כי אנו כאן נקדיש עצמנו למשימה הכבירה הניצבת עדיין בפנינו - כי ממתים עטורי תהילה אלו נשאב מסירות רבה יותר למטרה שעבורה נתנו הם את מלוא מסירותם האחרונה, כי נגמור אומר שמתים אלו לא לשווא מתו, שאומה זו, תחת האל, תזכה ללידה חדשה של חופש, וכי ממשלה של העם, על ידי העם, למען העם, לא תיושב ללא אייזיק וחנין זועבי.
תודה.
למקרה שתהיתם - אני כן עילאי ומתנשא.
Selected parts from the speech I gave to the nation.
We are in the preliminary stage of one of the greatest battles in history.... That we are in action at many points—in China and
Arochelo —, that we have to be prepared in the Mediterranean. That the air battle is continuous, and that many preparations have to be made here at home
I would say to the House as I said to those who have joined this government: I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat. We have before us an ordeal of the most grievous kind. We have before us many, many long months of struggle and of suffering.
You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word: Victory. Victory at all costs—Victory in spite of all terror—Victory, however long and hard the road may be, for without victory there is no survival.
I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: "We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal but Isaac." I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Coastal plain the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slaveowners will be able to sit down together at a table of brotherhood and vote for their real savior. I have a dream that one day even the state of Judea, a desert state, sweltering with the heat of injustice and oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom to vote for me and justice of my own. I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by their wealth.
The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion—that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain—that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom—and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not exist without Isaac and Hanin Zoabi.
Thank you.
Yes I am arrogant in case you wondered.

About the game:
USA as a world power? In E-Sim it is possible!
In E-Sim we have a huge, living world, which is a mirror copy of the Earth. Well, maybe not completely mirrored, because the balance of power in this virtual world looks a bit different than in real life. In E-Sim, USA does not have to be a world superpower, It can be efficiently managed as a much smaller country that has entrepreneurial citizens that support it's foundation. Everything depends on the players themselves and how they decide to shape the political map of the game.
Work for the good of your country and see it rise to an empire.
Activities in this game are divided into several modules. First is the economy as a citizen in a country of your choice you must work to earn money, which you will get to spend for example, on food or purchase of weapons which are critical for your progress as a fighter. You will work in either private companies which are owned by players or government companies which are owned by the state. After progressing in the game you will finally get the opportunity to set up your own business and hire other players. If it prospers, we can even change it into a joint-stock company and enter the stock market and get even more money in this way.
In E-Sim, international wars are nothing out of the ordinary.
Become an influential politician.
The second module is a politics. Just like in real life politics in E-Sim are an extremely powerful tool that can be used for your own purposes. From time to time there are elections in the game in which you will not only vote, but also have the ability to run for the head of the party you're in. You can also apply for congress, where once elected you will be given the right to vote on laws proposed by your fellow congress members or your president and propose laws yourself. Voting on laws is important for your country as it can shape the lives of those around you. You can also try to become the head of a given party, and even take part in presidential elections and decide on the shape of the foreign policy of a given state (for example, who to declare war on). Career in politics is obviously not easy and in order to succeed in it, you have to have a good plan and compete for the votes of voters.
You can go bankrupt or become a rich man while playing the stock market.
The international war.
The last and probably the most important module is military. In E-Sim, countries are constantly fighting each other for control over territories which in return grant them access to more valuable raw materials. For this purpose, they form alliances, they fight international wars, but they also have to deal with, for example, uprisings in conquered countries or civil wars, which may explode on their territory. You can also take part in these clashes, although you are also given the opportunity to lead a life as a pacifist who focuses on other activities in the game (for example, running a successful newspaper or selling products).
At the auction you can sell or buy your dream inventory.
E-Sim is a unique browser game. It's creators ensured realistic representation of the mechanisms present in the real world and gave all power to the players who shape the image of the virtual Earth according to their own. So come and join them and help your country achieve its full potential.
Invest, produce and sell - be an entrepreneur in E-Sim.
Take part in numerous events for the E-Sim community.
