This book is a comparison of linguistic functions in Arabic and English political discourse. It is a contrastive linguistic analysis of the Egyptian ex-President Hosni Mubarak's speeches in 2011, when the Egyptian people want to topple Mubarak, and Winston Churchill's (the British ex-Prime Minister) speeches in 1940 when he wants to persuade the British people to fight the Germans. Churchill's speeches played an important role in the public's decision to support going to war against Germany. Winston Churchill was a skillful poet. He used his skills in his speeches. The book focuses on the emotive linguistic features of the speeches delivered by Mubarak and Churchill. Mubarak succeeded in employing the emotive language and rhetoric so as to fulfill his objectives, but his failure to rule Egypt till the following September was attributed to the Battle of the Camel in which pro-Mubarak thugs on horses and camels attacked protesters arrayed in Tahrir Square. Similarly, during the darkest days of the war, in 1940, Churchill succeeded in moving the emotions of the British people and made them perceive hope where there was none to engage his people in war against the Germans.
