Answer
A
“the crime of the centuries”
B
“on Honolulu and Pearl Harbor”
C
“new weapons, two-man submarines”
D
“undeclared war on the United States”
E
“the most daring, dastardly attack in all history”
F
“murder of the innocents here and in the Philippines”

Explanation

Loaded language uses emotionally charged words to shape how an audience feels. “Crime,” “undeclared war,” “dastardly,” and “murder of the innocents” frame the attack as especially evil and provoke anger. “On Honolulu and Pearl Harbor” and “new weapons, two-man submarines” are more factual descriptions, not strongly emotional language.
