Read the following excerpt from a speech by a national leader:

Today, our nation was attacked by another nation in an aggressive and unprovoked manner. We cannot stand idly by and allow this country to steal our resources, enslave our people, and cause great harm and violence.

Which addition to the speech best uses logos to appeal to the audience?

A. How could any nation do this to another nation, much less to one that has done nothing to deserve this mistreatment?

B. The data is clear: By addressing poverty first we can have a greater impact on revitalizing our cities.

C. Because we participate in the alliance system, our allies will come to our defense, and our invaders will soon regret their aggression.

D. We are allowed under international law to defend ourselves, and we will not hesitate to do so with swift and decisive action.
