Which phrase used by the president was specifically chosen to convince the public to support the war
solmaris [256]

<u>Complete Question:</u>

Japan has, therefore, undertaken a surprise offensive extending throughout the Pacific area. The facts of yesterday 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. . . . I ask that the Congress declare that since the unprovoked and dastardly attack by Japan on Sunday, December 7, a state of war has existed between the United States and the Japanese Empire.

Which phrase used by the president was specifically chosen to convince the public to support the war?

A)“facts of yesterday”

B)“unprovoked and dastardly attack”

C)“have already formed their opinions”

D)“a state of war has existed”

<u>Correct Option:</u>

The phrase “unprovoked and dastardly attack” used by the president was specifically chosen to convince the public to support the war.

<u>Option: B</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

When Pearl Harbor occurred, President Roosevelt was in office and it was a great time for the United States government to start a war. Which was obviously won by the Germans and the Japanese, they had already agreed to support the allies before that, but they did not send troops directly when the bombings took place at Pearl Harbor. This is because the United States had never threatened, invaded or done anything to threaten Japan, they could now declare war on Japan as their allies.
