We must never again let any force dedicated to a super-race or super-idea or super-anything become strong enough to impose itself upon a free world.
I agree, (Sarcastic) when do we go and fight American Democracy?

Otto: You know we don’t stand a chance. Why not surrender?
Capt. Hermann Musk: You know what would happen if we do.
Otto: Do we deserve any better?
Capt. Hermann Musk: Otto, I’m not a Nazi.
Otto: No, you’re worse. Lousy officers. As I told you before at Brest Litowsk, but you didn´t listened. You went along with it all, even though you knew who was in charge. Hermann…

This is the President.
I’ve just been informed that our mid range military bases at Beta Durani and Proxima 3 have fallen to the Minbari. We’ve lost contact with our bases at Io and must conclude that they too have been destroyed by an advanced force.
Our military intelligence believes that the Minbari intend to bypass Mars and attack Earth directly, and the attack may come at any time.
We continue to broadcast our surrender and a plea for mercy. They have not replied. We can therefore only conclude that we stand at the twilight of the human race.
In order to buy more time for our evacuation transports to leave Earth, we ask for the support of every ship capable of fighting to take part in a last defense of our homeworld. We will not lie to you. We do not believe that survival is a possibility. Those of you who join the battle, will never come home. But, for every 10 minutes we can delay the military advance, several hundred more civilians may have a chance to escape to neutral territory. Though Earth may fall, the human race must have a chance to continue elsewhere.
No greater sacrifice has ever been asked of a people but I ask you now, to step forward one last time, one last battle to hold the line against the night.
May God go with you all.

It didn’t occur to me until now how nicely that Presidential speech from Babylon Five resonates with the one from Independence Day, even though they express completely opposite outlooks on the prospect of human extinction.

It wasn’t as “cheesy” as ID though….for a low budget series, they did pretty damn well… here’s my other fav Pres speech from a movie (since I can’t go with Battlestar)
I address you tonight not as the President of the United States, not as the leader of a country, but as a citizen of humanity. We are faced with the very gravest of challenges. The Bible calls this day “Armageddon”-the end of all things. And yet, for the first time in the history of the planet, a species has the technology to prevent its own extinction. All of you praying with us need to know that everything that can be done to prevent this disaster is being called into service.
The human thirst for excellence, knowledge, every step up the ladder of science, every adventurous reach into space, all of our combined modern technologies and imaginations, even the wars that we’ve fought have provided us the tools to wage this terrible battle. Through all the chaos that is our history, through all of the wrong and the discord, through all of the pain and suffering, through all of our times, there is one thing that has nourished our souls, and elevated our species above its origins, and that is our courage.
The dreams of an entire planet are focused tonight on those fourteen brave souls traveling into the heavens. And may we all, citizens the world over, see these events through. God speed, and good luck to you. -

So today’s lesson is, you kill each other off till there’s only one left. Nothing’s against the rules.

Training Video Girl: This one is SUPER lucky.What’s wrong with killing? Everyone’s got their reasons.
Shouldn’t you be worried about your life, instead of that useless micropenis of yours?
