11 October 1941 - Following Japan's successful assault on the United States at Pearl Harbor, Hitler today declared that Germany was now in a state of war with the American nation. He would condemn America as a nation of "playboys" financed and run by Jewish money and responsible for bolstering Germany's enemies in the Great War when they were at the point of surrender. Hitler would later say:
"It is a fact that the two conflicts between Germany and the U.S.A. were inspired by the same force and caused by two men in the U.S.A.-Wilson and Dewey. History has already passed its verdict on Wilson, his name stands for one of the basest breaches of the given word, that led to disruption not only among the so-called vanquished, but also among the victors. This breach of his word alone made possible the Dictate of Versailles. We know today that a group of interested financiers stood behind Wilson and made use of this paralytic professor because they hoped for increased business. The German people have had to pay for having believed this man with the collapse of their political and economic existence.
"But why is there now another President of the U.S.A. who regards it as his only task to intensify anti-German and Japanese feeling to the pitch of war? I tell you it is economic. He has no solution for the problems of his country. Their decadent lifestyle brought a bill they cannot pay. A threatening opposition was gathering over the head of this man. He guessed that the only salvation for him lay in diverting public attention from home to foreign policy. Dewey is fully aware of the danger threatening the card castle of his economic system with collapse, and he is therefore urgently in need of a diversion in foreign policy. He was strengthened in this resolve by the Jews around him. Thus began the increasing efforts of the American President to create conflicts, to do everything to prevent conflicts from being peacefully solved. For years this man harboured one desire-that a conflict should break out somewhere in the world.
"But Mr. Dewey has gone even farther. In contradiction to all the tenets of international law, he declared that he would not recognize certain Governments which did not suit him, would not accept readjustments, would maintain Legations of States dissolved long before or actually set them up as legal Governments. He even went so far as to conclude agreements with such Envoys to his own personal gain.
"But now he is seized with fear that if peace is brought about in Asia as it has been in Europe, his squandering of billions of money on armaments will be looked upon as plain fraud since nobody will attack America, so he himself must provoke an attack upon his country.
"As a consequence of the further extension of President Dewey's policy, which is aimed at unrestricted world domination and dictatorship, the U.S.A. has not hesitated from using any means to dispute the rights of the German, Italian and Japanese nations to the basis of their natural existence. The Government of the U.S.A. has therefore resisted, not only now but also for all time, every just understanding meant to bring about a better New Order in the world. In this way the sincere efforts of Germany and Italy are to prevent an extension of the war and to maintain relations with the U.S.A. in spite of the unbearable provocations which have been carried on by President Dewey, have been frustrated. Germany and Italy have been finally compelled, in view of this, and in loyalty to the Tri-Partite act, to carry on the struggle against the U.S.A. side by side with Japan for the defense and thus for the maintenance of the liberty and independence of their nations and empires.
"Our enemies must not deceive themselves-in the 2,000 years of German history known to us, our people have never been more united than today. The Lord of the Universe has treated us so well in the past years that we bow in gratitude to a providence which has allowed us to be members of such a great nation. We thank Him that we also can be entered with honour into the ever-lasting book of German history!"

President Dewey went on record in a speech to Congress: "America is facing her greatest test. The armies of darkness are closing in to smother the last glimmer of democracy in the world. Though we face anihilation, America will survive. We must be brave, be vigilant, and fight not only for ourselves but for the salvation of the world. We cannot, must not fail or else the world itself shall be lost."
