Mr. Vice President, Mr. Speaker, members
of the Senate and the House of
Representatives:Yesterday, December 7th, 1941 - a date
which will live in infamy - the United States
of America was suddenly and deliberately
attacked by naval and air forces of the
Empire of Japan.The United States was at peace with that
nation, and, at the solicitation of Japan,
was still in conversation with its
government and its Emperor looking
toward the maintenance of peace in the
Pacific.

Indeed, one hour after Japanese air
squadrons had commenced bombing
in the American island of Oahu, the
Japanese Ambassador to the United
States and his colleague delivered to
our Secretary of State a formal reply
to a recent American message. And,
while this reply stated that it seemed
useless to continue the existing
diplomatic negotiations, it contained
no threat or hint of war or of armed
attack.
It will be recorded that the distance of
Hawaii from Japan makes it obvious
that the attack was deliberately
planned many days or even weeks
ago. During the intervening time the
Japanese Government has deliberately
sought to deceive the United States by
false statements and expressions of
hope for continued peace.
Spee
ch
The attack yesterday on the Hawaiian Islands has caused severe damage to
American naval and military forces. I regret to
tell you that very many American lives have been
lost. In addition, American
ships have been reported
torpedoed on the high seas between San Francisco and Honolulu.

Yesterday the Japanese Government also launched an
attack against Malaya.Last night Japanese forces
attacked Hong Kong.Last night Japanese forces
attacked Guam.Last night Japanese forces
attacked the Philippine Islands.
Last night the Japanese attacked Wake Island.
And this morning the Japanese
attacked Midway Island.

Japan has therefore undertaken a surprise
offensive extending throughout the Pacific
area. The facts of yesterday and today
speak for themselves. The people of the
United States have already formed their
opinions and well understand the
implications to the very life and safety of
our nation.As Commander-in-Chief of the Army and
Navy I have directed that all measures be
taken for our defense, that always will our
whole nation remember the character of
the onslaught against us.No matter how long it may take us to
overcome this premeditated invasion, the
American people, in their righteous might,
will win through to absolute victory.

I believe that I interpret the will of the Congress and
of the people when I assert that we will not only
defend ourselves to the uttermost but will make it
very certain that this form of treachery shall never
again endanger us.Hostilities exist. There is no blinking at the fact that
our people, our territory and our interests are in
grave danger.With confidence in our armed forces, with the un-
bounding determination of our people, we will gain
the inevitable triumph. So help us God.I ask that the Congress declare that since the
unprovoked and dastardly attack by Japan on
Sunday, December 7th, 1941, a state of war has
existed between the United States and the Japanese
Empire.

“Hawaiian Islands has caused severe damage to
American naval and military
forces. I regret to tell you that very many American
lives have been lost.” FDR was telling the people
that Hawaii took a hard blow
yesterday and many lost their lives fighting a battle
and it upsets him that many
people where no longer with
him on that day.

“With confidence in our armed forces, with the un-
bounding determination of
our people, we will gain the inevitable triumph. So
help us God.”He is telling the people that our people will over come this obstacle and God will be with our troops
as they are defending their home land.
Majo
r Pre
mise
“Yesterday, December 7th,
1941 - a date which will live in
infamy - the United States of
America was suddenly and
deliberately attacked by naval
and air forces of the Empire of
Japan.” This is the main idea because
it’s giving great background
on why he is talking on that
day to the people of the United States. We where in the
beginning stages of absolute
victory.
Etho
s
“Yesterday the Japanese Government also launched an
attack against Malaya. Last
night Japanese forces attacked
Hong Kong. Last night Japanese
forces attacked Guam. Last night
Japanese forces attacked the
Philippine Islands. Last night the
Japanese attacked Wake Island.
And this morning the Japanese
attacked Midway Island.” Giving the people a idea on how
many people this effected not
just the United States.
Path
os
“So help us God.” He is asking The Lord to help us over come and because victorious in this cold and deadly war that has been brought before us on December 7, 1941

“As Commander-in-Chief of
the Army and Navy I have
directed that all measures
be taken for our defense” Basically what FDR was saying that he will stop at
nothing to over come any
situation that’s at hand. He
wants every situation that
could possibly happen to already been thought out
and over came with strategies.

Mean
ing
The meaning behind this riveting speech was to let the fellow Americans know that the government is taking
action. Roosevelt was giving his people closer about the horrifying day that was witnessed the day before.

Favo
rites
My favorite part in this speech was when FDR said “With confidence in our armed forces, with the un-bounding determination of our people, we will gain the inevitable triumph. So help us God.” It shows me how strong his beliefs are even at hard times.
