Operation Torch 4 minute clip of Operation Torch

Casablanca FDR meets with Churchill Announces that we will only accept an “Unconditional Surrender” of the Axis nations. War will not end through negotiation. Axis powers must surrender. Victors will decide the fate of the defeated. Germany and Japan must be prepared to fight to the bitter end. Assure the Soviets that we will not cut a deal with Hitler and leave them on their own.
