83 | This question refers to the following information. "Yesterday, December 7, 1941—a date which will live in infamy—the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air forces of the Empire of Japan. The United States was at peace with that nation and, at the solicitation of Japan, was still in conversation with its Government and its Emperor looking toward the maintenance of peace in the Pacific. Indeed, one hour after Japanese air squadrons had commenced bombing…the Japanese Ambassador to the United States and his colleague delivered to the Secretary of State a formal reply to a recent American message. While this reply stated that it seemed useless to continue the existing diplomatic negotiations, it contained no threat or hint of war or armed attack….The attack yesterday…has caused severe damage to American naval and military forces. Very many American lives have been lost. In addition American ships have been reported torpedoed on the high seas….As Commander-in-Chief of the Army and Navy, I have directed that all measures be taken for our defense." President Franklin D. Roosevelt, radio address, December 8, 1941 Which of the following was the most immediate consequence of the events described in the excerpt above? | Trade embargoes with Japan extending up through the 1980s | The Battle of Normandy | The internment of Japanese-Americans | The bombing of Nagasaki | C | C: The internment of Japanese-Americans |
