In the first and second paragraphs of "War Message to Congress," how does Wilson establish pathos, an appeal based on emotions?

Pathos appeals to readers’ emotions. By referring to American lives lost in German attacks, Wilson emphasizes the human cost of the conflict and can stir grief or anger. That makes “He talks about the US lives lost” the best answer; referring to his title or citing facts mainly builds authority or presents evidence.
