They made it easy to rally the Nation? That's not true. FDR was desperate for the US to get into the "real war" in Europe so he made it easy for the Japanese to commit an atrocity that would galvanize America into action. The dirty little secret is that everyone including the great orator criminally misjudged the Japanese. Most government documents from the 30's indicate that the Japanese were little nearsighted monkeys who were incapable of building a plane that would fly or a ship that would float. It was racism magnified by 10 square and the fDR administration had no functioning intelligence network. Strangely enough the US relied on bigotry and crazy assumptions prior to WW2. After the US entered the war the Brits were shocked about how little we actually knew about the enemy.

Haha, laughable analysis. I'm sure it was solely racism that caused our entrance into the war, discount the messy details of oh, I don't know ..Pearl Harbor or the US merchant ships under attack constant attack or...our closest allies being slaughtered by the Nazis or the rape of Nanking in 37 by the Jap animals.

Ok, I got it, FDR had some shady politics surrounding the US entr into WWII, the supposed "memo" received weeks prior to Pearl Harbor, ok, I got it. These are discussion topics that are still being validated. And, yeah, any 6th grade history student knows about the racism in US politics during the first half of the 20th century. Great job on this careful analysis...lol.
What has been validated are the first hand accounts and books that have been written by uhmmm survivors from Bataaan and the Corregidor. Go ahead and google Lester Tenny's "My Hitch in Hell" and learn from a survivor of the attrocities committed by the JAP bastards during WWII, gee..maybe word of these attrocities got back to the mainland and helped fuel the racism that supposedly steeered ALL American activities of that era. I know how those messy facts and first hand accounts do get in the way of a good argument though.
FDR probably had plenty of incidents that he could have used to go to war with Japan. In 1937 there was the sinking of the American gunboat Panay with the loss of American lives. What FDR did that caused Japan to attack Pearl Harbor was to stop selling the Japanese raw materials which Japan needed for its war on China. Without oil the Japanese navy was dead in the water, in any case FDR stopped the shipping of oil and other American raw materials to Japan. Japan took a chance with war to force America to make some kind of peace, and in the negotiated peace, Japan would take over parts of the Pacific that had her needed raw materials.
The question: should America have continued selling oil and other materials to Japan so she might continue her military operations in China?
James Wilson: (framer and ratifier): "This system will not hurry us into war; it is calculated to guard against it. It will not be in the power of a single man, or a single body of men, to involve us in such distress; for the important power of declaring war is vested in the legislature at large. . . ."
My question has been - who were the worst??? ; the Nazis with theirdeath camps, or theJaps with their less-publicized atrocities ie theRape ofNanking and the Contest to Behead 100 Peoole ??
Throughout the war and from before, Americans hated the Japanese worst, because of racial intolerance and then the Pearl Harbor sneak attack inflamed everyone.
The Nazis, as bad as were the Japanese, were far worse because they industrialized mass murder along with mass slave labor and concentration camps. They had the same mind set of some of our far right and far left extremist cultural and religious groups.
