Confusion over similar images[edit]
La description est erronée étant donné que c'est l'Allemagne qui a déclaré la guerre aux États-Unis le 11 décembre 1941...
Cette erreur provient de la source de cette image. Vous pouvez constater que la même photo est décrite comme celle de la signature de la déclaration de guerre contre le Japon ET contre l'Allemagne. C'est cette dernière description qui est erronée et reproduite ici
- It is true that Germany declared war on the United States on December 11, 1941. However, the United States responded in like kind on the same day, which is the event recorded in File:Franklin Roosevelt signing declaration of war against Germany.jpg. (See also en:Results of the attack on Pearl Harbor#Germany and Italy declare war.)
- Despite their evident similarities, File:Franklin Roosevelt signing declaration of war against Germany.jpg and File:Franklin Roosevelt signing declaration of war against Japan.jpg are in fact diffrent photos of different events. (Note, for example, the color of Roosevelt's suit.) The potential confusion between the two images has previously been fully explored and recorded at File talk:Franklin Roosevelt signing declaration of war against Germany.jpg#Confusion over similar images. —Werewombat (talk) 06:54, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
