World War II changed America as a whole from having so many disagreeing opinions to the country coming together as a whole and making America stronger. In my opinion World War II gave birth to the American spirit. There were so many different opinions arising before the United States entered the war and many of these changed after. Also, some did not. There were anti-war groups, hippies, organizations and important people who expressed their views on getting involved with the war. There were…

In this speech, Roosevelt compares Japan to Hitler's and Mussolini in Europe's and Africa's invasions of other countries to show how dangerous Japan could become if it was not stopped.
