FDR addresses the disastrous event of Pearl Habor on December 7th 1941 and how this traumatic event lead to the decesion to go to war. This assured the public that this event would not go unnoticed nor unacted upon. The fact that Japan had attacked many other countries as well played a role.
By saying "With confidence in our armed forces, with the unbounding determination of our people, we will gain the inevitable triumph -- so help us God." Rooselvelt's decesion to declare war was FDR's way of saying the Americans and the United States needed to take a stand against Japan. Showing that the United States would not take the hostility or agreesion from Japan.
