    The correct answer is "to emphasize the threat posed by Japan".

    Indeed, one of the most striking features of this speech is the repetition of the term "attack". It was used a total of 11 times during the whole speech and it inventories the list of attacks that Japanese forces had carried out or were carrying out before and during the speech.

    Furthermore, the speech closes with the word "danger" used twice which together with the former word further emphasize the clear imminent danger that Imperial Japan posed to the United States and the rest of the world.
