One of the most famous and significant speeches every recorded, so I posit that at least one version deserves to be featured. Appears in both Pearl Harbor attacks and Infamy Speech, and is indispensable to both. Original speech is public domain, the cleaned up versions we have here are both credited to W. Guy Finley under the CC-SA licencse.

Queries:
- I wonder why the background notes are in Japanese.
- The duration of the file needs to appear on the info page—Criterion 5 (ii)—and in the caption—Criterion 4.
- More importantly, why is it so short? Can't we have a sizeable proportion of the speech? Tony 10:28, 2 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The full version is only 6.5 minutes long; should we feature that instead? 128.187.0.164 17:50, 2 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
