"...in outrage Congress unanimously declared war on Japan, and the following day on Germany, which had not attacked us.
Is that what happened?"

It wasn't unanimous.

Yes, the vote for war against Germany by Congress wasn't unanimous. One 90 year old congresswoman, a lifelong peace advocate, voted against the Declaration of War against Germany after Pearl Harbor.

It was a rhetorical question pointing out the glaring inaccuracy in the date of the declaration of war against Germany.
