read the passage from roosevelt's "quarantine" speech. if those things come to pass in other parts of the world, let no one imagine that america will escape, that america may expect mercy, that this western hemisphere will not be attacked and that it will continue tranquility and peacefully to carry on the ethics and the arts of civilization. which best identifies an inference made in the passage and evaluates its logic?

a. the inference is that americnas have false sense of security, it is logical because of the ambitious nature of the german and japanese expansion thus far.
b. the inference is that americans are not deserving of mercy, it is logical because they have not extended a hand to other nations in need.
c. the inference is that americans should focus on ethics and arts, rather than war; it is illogical because america has the most powerful military in the world.
d. the inference is that america is too far removed to become involved in the war; it is illogical because japan and germany have naval forces that can be attack by sea.
