What argument does Roosevelt make about America's susceptibility to an attack? What evidence does he use to support this argument? How relevant is his evidence? Does he provide enough evidence to support his concern? Explain your evaluations

Explanation:

Referring to the growing expansion and threat coming from "dictator nations" like Germany during the second world war in 1941, Roosevelt said,

"As long as the aggressor nations maintain the offensive they, not we, will choose the time and the place and the method of their attack.

And that is why the future of all the American Republics is today in serious danger. "

He compellingly said further,

"The nation's hands must not be tied when the nation's life is in danger."

His evidence is quite relevant considering the fact that he gave practical examples his listeners were familiar with, like how the Nazis evaded other countries (like Norway, Netherlands) that were not better prepared for an attack.

Indeed, he provided enough evidence from a military standpoint to support his concern. For example, to reason further with Congress he added,

"And when the dictators -- if the dictators -- are ready to make war upon us, they will not wait for an act of war on our part.

They did not wait for Norway or Belgium or the Netherlands to commit an act of war."
