America Declares War on Japan - President Roosevelt Speech [Full Resolution]

[superkoo8]

Japs masacred millions of Chinese, Koreans, and Filipinos during their imperialist realm. I hate the Japs.

[XxxSakura101]

@superkoo8 That was 70 years ago, and those responsible are long since dead. You need to move on, remember but forgive.

[convener777]

If Japan had assisted the Germans invade Russia I think the world would be different today.

[tonihc19]

ojala los presidentes de las ultimas décadas tuviesen la mitad de cojones que tuvo roosevelt!!!

[Hephaestus4]

THE JAPS FUCKED YOU SOOO NICE... HAHAHAH

[riddlergirl1]

@Hephaestus4 thats why he beat them right?

[TheJoeyzxc]

I wonder if the United States would ever declare war again. Nothing rallies the people more like a declaration.

[Ca1861]

I wish we could have a President like this...

[KiddoBeastPro]

Afraid? nah... To quote Pentti Linkola- "Any dictatorship would be better than modern democracy. There cannot be so incompetent dictator, that he would show more stupidity than a majority of the people." Not that I want to give credence to your ludicrous conspiracy theory rants, but even if it were true, it wouldn't be so bad. In fact, it might be better.

[we5tcoast]

@KiddoBeastPro it might be better that the millitary can come arrest you and take you to a concentration camp without any trial? you my friend are a complete idiot, you should stop being so naive and only listening to the shit that is force fed to you through government controlled media

[KiddoBeastPro]

@we5tcoast Pentti Linkola is now government controlled media? Whose government? The Finnish government? Yeah right, I'm sure he he's really just a government pawn who the Finnish are promoting so they can get away with their evil right-wing agenda, and I'm just to naive to see it.

[MegaWolfgang]

I read that 1 senator voted no on declaring war. does anyone recall whom that was and why he voted the way he did?

[we5tcoast]

they knew that japan was coming. countrys informed america that japan was going to attack but america sat back and waited for it to happen.. why? because that was a reason to get us in to WW II. and why did we want to be involved in WW II? because war is a huge money maker.. im fucking sick of all these people thinking america is the greatest country and we do everything for good..... all of you fucking idiots that are sitting back and letting our rights getting taken away I pitty you.

[KiddoBeastPro]

@we5tcoast Yeah, and the end result was the US revived itself into prosperity and wealth and in turn abducted Japan into its political sphere of influence which subsequently lead to that country becoming prosperous, advanced and internally freer than it had ever been. So why the single-minded moral outrage and condescending attitude? Why fall back on lazy cultural masochism? I'm sick of people waging an inane verbal war on an American cultural jingoism that only exists in their paranoid heads.

[we5tcoast]

@KiddoBeastPro lmao paranoid? your just affraid.. let me tell you something, marshal law is coming. Do you know what that is? Its where you pretty much have no fucking rights the military comes in and controls all. And anything you say that goes against the government you will be considered a terrorist and taken to a detainment camp (FEMA CAMPS) if you dont beleive me you can look up videos of FEMA camps here on youtube.... the fourth reich is coming

[Horrorlord1]

Fuck the federal reserve!

[robotpanda77]

No bitches on that senate floor.

[JohnyAngelo]

Leaders in democrasy are image of the society.

[briEsp90]

[hto1971]

[TheDavidej]

They do not grow old as we that are left grow old

Age will not weary them, nor the years condem

For at the going down of the sun

And in the morning

WE WILL REMEMBER THEM

[Sandman2514]

You guys do realize that President Obama is a liberal just like FDR was?? His health care idea or plan was actually what FDR had envisioned before he passed away. It was going to be called "The Patient's Bill of Rights" in which about 90% of what was formed from Obama's planned was based from...

[phillipbrisim]

President Roosevelt was a great leader and knew how to give a speech.

We need him know.

[lisalm66]

i loved this president i get goosebumps when i hear this

[confess5]

Why is there cheering? You're president just declared war on an empire...

[dillon0331]

@confess5 because they attacked us the day before dumbass

[CptUSAmerica]

@confess5 He didnt declare war... FDR declared TOTAL DESTRUCTION!!

[IS0iOS]

hahahaha this fag needs to get laid

[Johnnybomb1]

High quality

[iiBlack0ut]

Back then we had REAL leaders. Nothing like the ones from present day. :)

[rsvmaker878]

@iiBlack0ut our presidents been getting worse then better in my opinion.

[948L0]

@iiBlack0ut

Do you include Kennedy and Reagan inside the REAL leaders category too?

Roosevelt had Nazy Germany and Imperial Japan as opponents

Kennedy and Reagan had the Soviet Union and Communist China as opponents

And although the Soviet Union and Communist China didnt attack the US, a war could have started at any given moment during the cold war (1945-1990)

[948L0]

@iiBlack0ut

And I can bet my ass if in the future, an attack is done on america, but done by a nation that had an ENORMOUS military strength (like Nazi Germany, Imperial Japan, Soviet Union or Communist China had back in those days) instead of some shitty 3rd world country with a ragtag army of poor trained guys, and faced with the possibility of US sovereignity being in peril of dissapearing, it would emerge in the US a leader of the level of Roosevelt, Kennedy and Reagan, etc

[948L0]

@iiBlack0ut

WWII and the Cold war were tough times, and like in both of them, there wasnt at the start of WWII (1940) and the cold war (1945), clear signs of victory, like there were at the end of WWII (1945) and the cold war (1991)

My point is that victory wasnt certain at the start of these conflicts, and the US started in the losing (or non-winning, if you prefer, I dont want to offend nobody) side, and that the US didnt start kicking ass and taking names --->

[948L0]

@948L0

2---> against an enemy that had no fucking chance of winning or even being able to defend themselves against the might of the US armed forces, like the US did in the wars of the last 20-25 years, because the enemies that the US fought lately are laughable (Iraq, Afghanistan, Lybia, pffft, please, i´ve seen rats put up more of a fight than them), But Germany, Japan, etc, that is another matter

[948L0]

In todays world, no country alone has a chance of standing up to the military power of the US

Iran, North Korea, whatever, they dont have anything close to the abrams, f22, etc, they would get steamrolled in a matter of weeks (or maybe a couple of months)

Nobody has now the strength of resisting attacks of the US or a coalition of half the worlds armies alone for 5 years, like Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan did back then in the 40s

[948L0]

@948L0

Except maybe Russia and China

US/UK quality against RUS/CHN quantity

Back then in WWII was

US quantity vs GER quality

US quality vs JPN quantity

[Thalmoral]

@948L0 Well China has 300,000,000 ready military personal. I'm pretty sure they could destroy us if we kept nuclear weapons out of it.

[948L0]

@Thalmoral

According to wikipedia (yeah, I know that I have to take that information with a grain of salt, or a kilo)

PRC Armed Forces

Active - 2,285,000

Reserve - 800,000

Paramilitary - 1,500,000

Total - 4,585,000

So I dont know where did you get the info about the 300 million soldiers, perhaps you meant the 318,265,016 chinese citizens that could be available and fit for doing military service but are not in the army, navy, etc, yet?

[Thalmoral]

@948L0 I wasn't referring to active forces. I read this in the 2008 book of world records some time ago
