Question 1: The Japanese attack upon American naval forces and air defenses at Pearl Harbor gave Franklin Roosevelt the justification he needed to involve the United States in the Second World War. Using specific examples from the propaganda film, Why We Fight, what other motivations existed to rationalize America's entrance into World War II?

Question 2: Discuss the ways the United States attempted to remain neutral once war was officially underway in the Pacific and European theaters. In your response, describe how American neutrality could be described as "unbalanced" in the years leading up to America's official entry into the Second World War in December 1941?

Question 3: The film series Why We Fight is admittedly a piece of government propaganda to promote continued American involvement in the Second World War. Given our unfettered access to various information systems, how susceptible are the American people to government or media propaganda today? (Please use specific examples to defend your position).
