The Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor on December 7th in 1941. After this, FDR issued an address to congress asking to declare war upon Japan. December 7th would forever be "a day that would live on in infamy." He says to the people that the Japanese are acting as if nothing was wrong, and seems a bit taken aback by this. Japan was attacking several places several times and increasing hostility in the Pacific region. FDR urged Americans to take a stand and fight against Japan. He wants a war and he wants to show that America is not a country that can be messed with easily. America does go to war.
