“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…
I ask that the Congress declare that since the unprovoked and dastardly attack by Japan on Sunday, December 7th, a state of war has existed between the United States and the Japanese Empire…”
