Pearl Harbor: The Day of Infamy, and After

Scenes from the 2011 film Isoroku Yamamoto: C-in-C of the Combined Fleet, depicting the events that will forever live in infamy on this day seventy-six years ago.

[@bibblebob]

This short scene manages to be better executed and more interesting than the entirety of Michael Bay’s film. Not just from the historical accuracy perspective, but for its relative realism. Plus the score (of this whole film) is amazing. Same thing can be said for the Battle of Midway as depicted in this film versus the recently released film, where there’s about a million planes in the air defying all the laws of physics.

[@nogoodnameleft]

The 2019 Midway film is HORRIBLE. They don't bother to show Lexington or Yorktown being sunk but the aftermath of their sinkings. They act like Enterprise was the only aircraft carrier that existed also. To Michael Bay's credit his Battleship Row attack scene in Pearl Harbor was very well done. He did all the exterior and interior scenes for the battleships on the actual USS Texas, which still survives and is the only surviving battleship that looks like the Pearl Harbor battleships. Even the capsizing of Oklahoma uses USS Texas as the acting double in the movie! That isn't CGI but the actual filmed shots of Texas!!! No other Pearl Harbor movie bothers to do actual filming of a real dreadnought battleship like Bay did.

[@Johno1992]

​@@nogoodnameleft Michael's bays movies was a glorified love story though Danny and rafes characters were loosely based off George wealch and Kenneth Taylor who found a back up runway got into the air and shot down 6 Japanese fighters wealch later died when he ejected from a super sabre during a test flight in 54 and Kenneth Taylor headed to the south Pacific after pearl he headed to guadalcanal where he was credited with destroying another Japanese aircraft before his combat carrier was cut short after someone fell on top of him during an air raid on the base while he was in a trench

[@nogoodnameleft]

@@Johno1992 And this Japanese movie's Pearl Harbor attack scene is horrible. They didn't want to show any of the destruction being done because of "propaganda" reasons and also because of CGI budget reasons. They didn't have to show any American actors' bodies or faces but they should have shown the ships getting damaged and destroyed via CGI. 2001 Pearl Harbor did the best attack scenes ever. Tora Tora Tora was great for its time period but so outdated now and 2019 "Midway" 's Pearl Harbor scene is even worse than this Japanese movie because that 2019 Midway movie is crappy overall.

[@porpus99]

One thing every movie depicting the events of Pearl Harbor misses I the USS Taney. A Coast Guard cutter assigned to Destroyer Division 80, and one of the first US ships to begin firing back at the Japanese. The reason for this is because while they were supposed to be at leave, the crew had screwed up the day before. As a result they were performing battle drills as a punishment. This meant when the Japanese started firing, they were in a position to return fire. A minor part of the battle for sure, but would be nice to give a small nod.

[@blahblah2779]

They don’t include them because… They didn’t do a damn thing. Shooting at the Japanese? You may as well have thrown confetti at them. Their actions accomplished nothing to the battle, let alone the war. And here you are making it sound like they were the “first heroes” 😂

[@pic7062]

US Navy carrier Enterprise WAS supposed to be in Pearl Harbor that fateful morning. Enterprise was on its was to Pearl Harbor the day before when an escorting destroyer (1400 ton) accidentally dropped a refueling line while refueling. And this refueling line got tangled up in the propeller of a cruiser also in the escorting group. It took hours for navy divers to untangle that hose from the screw of the cruiser. And this resulted in Enterprise not being in Pearl Harbor that morning. So the lesson is, even amateurish incompetence sometimes helps.

[@VashtheStampede007]

If it was true, then it is all about luck

EVER thought that the reason for the carriers not being there is because the U.S governement already knew of the attack and knew the carriers would be instrumental in the war?(so they made sure they were safe) I say this because since the war in europe began the U.S government have been wanting a reason to join the war but the population wasnt having any of it .

[@OperationEndGame]

Akshay Muddinagiri Nagumo knew nothing about carrier ops...

[@7503funkymonkey]

Having Nagumo as lead reflects IJN doctrine at the time to focus on decisive battle w/ battleships, w/ carriers subordinated to the battleships. The US Navy probably had a similar doctrine at the time, too, were it not forced by the events of Pearl Harbor to switch to a carrier-focused doctrine. With that said, given the circumstances and purpose of the attack on Pearl Harbor - a long range first strike to cripple key assets - high command should have deviated from the standard battleship-centric doctrine and looked at it as a pure carrier-task force matter.

[@joewong5136]

Yamamoto is the only Japanese commander I respect and like. The Japanese Army claimed to conduct themselves by the "Bushido" code but seldom did in combat. The Japanese Navy on the other hand were honorable and did conduct themselves like warriors. In one battle the Japanese Captain of a battleship ordered his men to stand at attention and salute a US destroyer and her men that they just knocked out of action because the US sailors were fighting against an overwhelming Japanese battleship. They lost, but it's those moments where respect is given when it is earned.

[@nogoodnameleft]

I don't know what you have been reading or watching but research the cannibalism and tortures and executions of POWs that the Japanese Navy did to Allied POWs. The Japanese Navy did the horrendous Manila Massacre in the Philippines that killed 100,000 civilians. Admiral Nimitz and the Central Pacific Command in the infamous "Guam War Crimes Tribunal" executed about 20 Japanese admirals and captains who condoned and ordered the cannibalism that the Navy did on captured Allied POWs. The Navy was just as brutal and nasty as the Army. There was nothing honorable about Yamamoto or the Navy. For some reason we are supposed to ignore the utter brutality that the Japanese Navy did to civilians and soldiers and sailors all over Asia and the Pacific. People even whine about the executions of General Homma, the general responsible for the Bataan Death March, and General Yamashita, the general who was in charge of brutal war crimes and executions and hell ships in Singapore, Malaya, and Philippines 1944-45. They say they shouldn't have been executed. How "honorable" was it when the Japanese Navy tied weights to the two naval aviators at Midway and executed them via drowning? There was no honor by both sides in WWII. WWII was the most horrendous event in human history.

[@muhammadhabibullah618]

@@nogoodnameleft can't deny the fact that most of Imperial Japanese Forces did inhuman torture, this due to Japanese Government to be blame at that time for recruiting criminals in their forces. Furthermore, most of well discipline members and avoiding misconduct of command of torture always get demoted, or transfered to other post because unwillingly to execute their inhumane orders from their higher ups. Ones can be an example is the Tiger of Malaya: General Tomoyuki Yamashita that has been sentenced to death due to his own subordinate conducting war-crime beyond his orders, which himself has ordered to avoid any problem with civilians around em' or misconduct of power. But dude being good cause him transferred to Manilla since all of his subordinate dislike him for being nice to people... That's why criminal ain't fit in Military since they have the urge to satisfy their own greeds.

[@nogoodnameleft]

@@muhammadhabibullah618 Completely wrong on Yamashita. He ordered the Palawan Massacre in December 1944 where 150 American soldiers were burned alive in a ditch and he also ordered the executions of 3 Filipino Army generals including Vicente Lim. In December 1944 he executed the 3 generals and the founder of the Girl Scouts of the Philippines and the families of numerous Filipino politicians and judges in the Manila Chinese Cemetery. Yamashita was one of the worst war criminals of WWII and it was too humane to simply hang him. He should have been thrown in a hole and have gasoline poured on him and then set on fire like how he ordered the Palawan Massacre. He also ordered the Batangas Massacre where his ARMY soldiers in the Philippines murdered 25,000 civilians. He cannot blame the Navy for these illegal murders. They were done by his own Army troops, all of whom confirmed that they were given orders from Yamashita.

[@asheer9114]

[@marks665]

Either you're the one trying to rewrite historical facts, or you're confusing the "14-Part Message" with the "Japanese declaration of war." Either way, you're wrong. The 14-Part Message was what was sent to the USA before the attack, but wasn't translated and delivered in time. It merely said that the Japanese Government considered it impossible to come to an agreement through negotiations. It gave the impression that the Japanese were about to terminate negotiations and that war was imminent, but it did not actually declare war nor sever diplomatic relations. If the 14-Part Message was a declaration of war, why didn't it mention anything about declaring war? The Japanese declaration of war against the USA was published in Japanese newspapers the evening after the attack, and sent to the USA the following day. If the 14-Part Message was a declaration of war, Why would the Japanese feel the need to send an actual declaration of war the following day? Wouldn't the declaration of war sent to the USA on December 8th have been redundant? Clearly the Japanese felt that the 14-Part Message was not a declaration of war.

[@MasterChief-sl9ro]

What are you public schooled? You think attacking Pearl Harbor was not a Declaration of War? If you think that. I would slap my teachers and ask the schools for a refund. As it was well documented. The "Declaration of war" was in the 14 part message. As America was cutting off Japanese Oil Supplies. Which is why they attacked 80% of the Pacific. in the first week! Unless you think the Philippines. Guam. Australia. The East Indies was not going to be seen. As an Act of War! Not to mention they sunk 2 British War Ships. As they also Declared War on the British. The same day and time that the Americans were to have got theirs. The British message was delivered on time. The Americans was not! Now shut the fuck up. Not even the Japanese Historians publish such dribble. As their not interested in Revisionist History. It's why America ranks 29th in education.

Master Chief 00117, there's a difference between an act of war, and a declaration of war. Neither of us were disputing that attacking Pearl Harbor was an act of war. We were debating whether or not Japan attempted to declare war before attacking. Your reading comprehension skills are seriously lacking. At no point in the 14-Part Message did Japan declare war against the US.

[@CaseyinTexas]

What gets me was the Japanese belief that attacking and destroying the Pacific fleet would sap the American people's will to fight and sue for peace. Yamamato lived and studied in the US. He saw first hand the untapped potential of America's industrial capacity. He also should have learned enough about the American people to know that as long as a fight or conflict does not involve them, they will ignore it, but the second a fight affects them, they will jump in and fight tooth and nail. Add into the mess an action that can be perceived as a sucker punch, and any thoughts of your opponent not having the will to fight goes right out the window.

[@TheJordanBukikosa]

Lol, no. America lost to a China and Soviet backed Vietnam. It was also a different type of war. America couldn't just throw all it's forces into Vietnam, or Korea, which was a similar failure as well. In a full out war, America probably would have won. But there was no point in continuing the war because it just wasn't worth the flak domestically, and it wasn't worth the resources to keep communism out of Vietnam, although it would have been nice to. In the end, containment succeeded, and after another 20 years, the USSR collapsed. Apart from South East Asia and North Korea, communism was kept at bay for the most part, so from the anti-communist perspective, I'd say it was "a war that didn't need to be won".

[@TheJordanBukikosa]

一山田 What? America completely lost. I never said they didn’t. But it wasn’t the Vietnamese who won. The ones who beat the US were the Chinese and Soviets backing the Vietnamese. What I said was that if the US for some stupid reason, decided to devote all its resources into an all out war with Vietnam, China, and the Soviets, just for Vietnam, they could have stopped the spread of Communism. But that is a ridiculous plan, not even thinking about the issues of nuclear weapons, the scale of conflict, or anything. Strategically, the war in Vietnam was practically destined to fail because the US didn’t have any way to stop the flow of Chinese and Soviet aid to the Vietnamese communists.

[@CaseyinTexas]

Vietnam was a political war that was intended to prop up a government whose only qualification was that it was anti-communist. The battle and rules of engagement was not decided by the generals and commanders in the field. Instead, decisions were made in Washington DC, in both the halls of congress and in the oval office by incompetent politicians who were more afraid of offending others by limiting the military options on the ground

[@randyxu2605]

I like the movie as entertainment, but it unfortunately displays some common misunderstanding and propaganda (mostly from the Japanese apologists after the war). 1) The "declaration" of war was hardly that. It was simply a 14-part message stating that Japan had decided to stop the latest round of negotiations. Even if it had been sent on time (30 min before the scheduled attack) it still would've been without a formal declaration of war. 2) Nagumo is made to be foolish for not ordering another attack but he had good reason -- Out of almost 400 fighters, for another attack he only had 60-70% in service. And 2/3 of his losses were in the 2nd wave when the Americans were better prepared. So he would be attacking a) late due to greater turn around time for 3rd attack and requiring night landings b) attacking with less forces against an even better prepared enemy c) exposing himself to air, submarines and carrier attack (the carriers were out there) -- he was also at the end of his logistics and needed to navigate almost 5000 miles of ocean to reach home, Hawaii is twice as close to the US as Japan. Remember he's on a floating piece of metal and wood several days sail from their nearest port. At this point in the war, the British had already lost 2 carriers to submarines. Now at Midway, he went away from the default plan to re-arm his reserve planes for land attack, but this was a reasonable action given that no enemy fleet had been discovered by scout planes at that point (although ship signals had been picked up, he can be criticized for missing that message). After that, he followed Japanese doctrine of engaging with a full punch, hence waiting until his planes were fully armed, so while waiting he could at the same time bring the Midway attack wave back in. The Japanese were the best early in the war of combining the fighting power of their carriers as a whole - as they state in the movie they could launch a full attack in 15 minutes whereas the Americans took 45 to get their full wings up and barely coordinated between carriers. At Midway, the American dive bombers came at once due to blind luck (some of the planes lost the initial trail only to circle back), not due to organizational ability. So if the Japanese were able to get a full attack launched, they probably would've sunk at least one if not two of the American carriers.

[@gregorylumban-gaol3889]

Yamammoto can only do so much. Appointing Nagumo as the Carrier commander instead of more carrier-minded commanders like Ozawa or Yamaguchi was a mistake.

[@f430ferrari5]

Shrek Wazowski Yamamoto wasn’t a smart guy. If he was he would have came up with a better battle plan at Midway. The odds in the number of vessels and quality of crew (already battle tested) were overwhelming in his favor but yet he blew it. Code breaking only matters when you have a slight disadvantage in odds available. The US won at Midway simply due to sheer numbers related to what Yamamoto used not brought. The IJN Main Force had 7 battleships plus 1 small carrier and a gang load of cruisers and destroyers 300 miles out. He should have positioned the vessels at least 150 miles closer where when the battle began then destroyers would steam ahead at top speed to encounter a US Task Force I’d present. Yamamoto should have also devised the plan where Kondo’s Occupation Force also served as an island bombardment force. The 2nd Fleet Group consisted of 2 fast battleships, 4 heavy cruisers, 1 light cruiser and 7 destroyers. The above are just minor “tweaks” to the battle plan. If the two battleships were already planned to attack the island it wouldn’t have been necessary to have a second aerial bombing. If there was no need for additional bombing then Yamamoto could have loaded his carriers with more fighters vs bombers. If he had less bombers then less heavy bombs are required. The IJN carriers were loaded far from capacity. Each carrier could have at least had 10 more planes each. The IJN could have easily removed 50 bombers and added 75 fighters. This would have provided much more CAP. Also an IJN fleet being 20 miles away south of Midway and moving in would have certainly caught the attention of both US Midway and Carrier pilots. Any approaching IJN force heading due east at full speed would have also caught the attention of the US carrier pilots. Had Yamamoto properly used his non carrier vessels he probably could have saved all his carriers and destroyed Task Force 16 and 17 and maybe even capture the Enterprise and Hornet. So yeah Yamamoto was far from brilliant.

[@f430ferrari5]

tron the IJN had 11 total battleships near Midway. 7 were with the Main Force including the Yamato. 2 fast battleships were with the Mobile Force/Kido Butai. The 2 remaining fast battleships were with Kondō’s Occupation Force. These two were the only ones in position to do anything from an ad lib standpoint. I put more blame on Yamamoto than Nagumo. All Yamamoto had to do was plan that the first aerial bombing wasn’t going to be enough. He might as well have used his battleships. The plan needed to work this way. Yamamoto should have learned from the Battle of Coral Sea that it isn’t easy sinking Us carriers. It comes with a price. That price is valuable pilots from a bomber perspective. The plan should have been to utilize fast battleships and put them in a position where they could shoot at the US vessels. The only way to achieve this is to have minimal bombers wound the US carriers to slow them down. The already wounded Yorktown could barely do mid 20 knots. IJN had 4 fast battleships which could do 30 knots. Another 2 battleships could do 26.5 knots. So in order to make best use of his battleships the other 4 slower ones plus the Yamato could have surrounded Midway and shell the island. This poor planning is Yamamoto’s fault not Nagumo.

[@f430ferrari5]

tron the reason for more fighters is for CAP. Combat Air Patrol. Had the IJN had additional fighters the US dive bombers would have had a much harder time hitting the IJN carriers. The IJN war ships were better designed for vessel to vessel combat. The US non carrier vessels and the carriers themselves relied more on anti aircraft guns.

[@f430ferrari5]

tron with the 4 main carriers the IJN had 248 total planes. Usually how they were divided was 1/3 being fighters, dive bombers, and torpedo bombers, respectively. So 84 fighters and 164 bombers. As mentioned before, had the IJN planned to use their battleships then they probably could have replaced bombers with fighters. So tack on another 30 planes to the 4 main carrier fleet. So the 278 planes would be: 174 fighters 104 bombers The key to all this though which I didn’t mention before was that the IJN needed more carriers and planes. The small carriers Ryujo and Junyo should have been at Midway and not the Aleutians. They could have provided around 84 more planes. 40 fighters and 21 dive and 21 torpedo bombers. The IJN also should have brought the Zuikaku So long as they were going to load the carrier with mainly fighters it would have been much easier to incorporate this group. They could have easily added 70 more planes. The IJN could have made better use of two other small carriers the Zuiho and Hosho. They carried 30 and 15 planes respectively. This combined 9 carriers could have pushed the number of planes to nearly 500. So while you mentioned the US dive bombers may have had fighter escort...the bottom line was that 233 US carrier planes was not going to be enough to go through so many zero fighters. Even the additional 127 Midway planes would not have been enough. The Midway planes were mainly obsolete. Once the IJN eliminated the US planes then the US vessels would have been easy targets.

Had there been carriers in the harbour,this would have been a different story.As it had been proved in the same year by eliminating the giant battleship BISMARCK by a tiny aircraft(Swordfish) launched from a carrier,the time of the battleships was history.Therefore,Yamamoto and his staff officers exactly knew the fact that all they were able to do was to help the US war product to get boosted.

[@nogoodnameleft]

There was a different story though because the battleships were knocked out for a long, long time. Navy intel already knew an attack would happen but they lied to Husband and Short and all the men in Oahu. If those battleships weren't sunk then during the long and horrendous Naval Campaign of Guadalcanal which lasted for 6 months there would have been a bunch of heavily armed and armored battleships and their escorts facing off against all those talented Japanese heavy cruisers and battleships and we would not have had mismatched disasters like the battles of Savo Island, Santa Cruz Islands, and the Friday the 13th November Naval Battle of Guadalcanal. The turning point of the Pacific War was not Midway but the combination of Guadalcanal and Buna-Gona. The Japanese Navy at Guadalcanal didn't get the "cool pop history of today" memo that they got destroyed at Midway.

We all know the final outcome of this event, but an interesting thought is this: had the carriers been in Pearl, had the U.S. knew war had been declared, had the U.S. Navy sailed, had the planes been in the air... In my opinion the outcome might not have been that different. Think of MacArthur on Corrigedor: "our tails are in the air". Clark Air Base was hit badly.

True but without the carriers the war would have lasted a lot longer and gone even worse for America and the Allies.

Also experience of carrier combat and operating a fast carrier task force would also have taken a lot longer to accumulate as well.

[@Ranillon]

This movie repeats a common, but fundamental historical myth - the message sent to the US by Japan meant to be received right before the Pearl Harbor attack WAS NOT a declaration of war. It was merely a declaration that negotiations had failed. That is, clearly a move toward formal declaration of war, but one a few steps before that point. Importantly, the US had deciphered the message even before the Japanese ambassador had and while they rightly saw it as a sort of warning that war was close, it was still thought that would come within days, not minutes. That was why, for example, the warning didn't get to Pearl Harbor until after the attack had begun - it wasn't thought to be important enough to send top priority, but was sent in a standard fashion. So, Yamamoto's preoccupation here over the note being received before the attack is exaggerated and may in fact be ahistorical, a way of making him look more honorable after-the-fact.

[@thinkingagain5966]

It was indeed a declaration of war. Nothing less

[@chuckysmaria6466]

@thinkingagain "It was indeed a declaration of war. Nothing less" No it's not. The letter express their desire to cut of negotiation. Declaration of war is what the british and french gave germany; or what US gave to japan; or germany to US.

[@ISIO-George]

@@chuckysmaria6466 After a long description of the preceding months of negotiations and explanations of the Japanese positions, the message delivered to Secretary Hull on 7 Dec ends with: "Thus, the earnest hope of the Japanese Government to adjust Japanese-American relations and to preserve and promote the peace of the Pacific through cooperation with the American Government has finally been lost. The Japanese Government regrets to have to notify hereby the American Government that in view of the attitude of the American Government it cannot but consider that it is impossible to reach an agreement through further negotiations." Though it does not say literally that war has been declared, I think Hull understood Japan was saying in an elliptical way military action was the next step. The formal Japanese declaration of war was publically announce in Japan 7 1/2 hours after the start of the attack on Pearl Harbor, which was about 6 1/2 hours after the Dec 7 meeting of Hull with the Japanese ambassador. The U.S. was equally vague about its intentions during negotiations. The "Hull Note" from 26 Nov laid out the steps Japan had to take to restore peace to the Pacific, and also steps the U.S. would take to restore relations with Japan. But it doesn't say what the U.S. would do if Japan did not comply. Japan took it as an ultimatum they could not accept. The force attacking Pearl Harbor left the day before. It was the Hull Note that made Japan conclude war could not be avoided, to not recall the fleet, and to inform the U.S. on Dec 7 that negotiations were at an end. Japan had already decided to go to war with the West before the Hull Note. In their view, the note gave them no reason to change their mind, and confirmed their decision. Is there any evidence that the U.S. had decided to go to war with Japan if they rejected the Hull Note, but had not attacked the U.S. immediately? Why was the U.S. not clear about what it would do if the U.S. terms were rejected?

Hey ,.... in the war, heroes come and go and mistakes are bound to be made. During WWII Japanese made 3 huge errors 1 not listening to Yamamoto - who was opposed to attack on a Pearl Harbor if They must, he argued, destroy all carriers at all cost, if not it will only serve as an alarm clock to a sleeping Giant. 2.losing all the leverage to negotiate a peace treaty after the above mentioned operation ; by unable to deliver the declaration of war before the attack to commence, combined the fact that the American Navy were able to survive the attack with most valuable assets still intact. With almost all of the carriers intact Americans were able to win the Battle of Midway- which led the Americans to believe that the Peace treaty that the Japanese has offered is a mute from that point on. It is just a common sense if you are going to fight somebody like Tyson, then you need to break at least one of his limb while he is sleeping than only than he might succumb to peace offering but Japan failed to do so in the wake of WWII 3The failure to come to consensus as in unified command , In any country Animosity between Army and Navy exist but when situation calls for, it would have one command source. But in case of Japan Imperial Forces mistrust between Army and Navy was such that, it was utter disaster. In every major Battle there were a separate battle plan drawn one from Navy and one from Army , in most cases who has out-numbered in man power in the Battle field had an upper hand in commanding authority. This scheme could have worked against uncivilized or un-modernized military, but not against a fighting unit that has single command post. There are numerous examples but to display defense scheme against United States, battles on Leite, Iozima, and Okinawa are prominent. In Leite, they failed to come consensus who to attack first the carrier or supply, in the end, Army aircraft attack their preferred target and Navy theirs. As a result they are destroyed by the American forces separately. In Iozima and Okinawa Navy wanted maintain airfield though no useful aircraft was near by and Army wanted it destroyed. In the end, in the case of Iozima the Airfield was overturned to American after the battle, and in case of Okina, it was destroyed at the last minute.

[@hayek218]

Pearl Harbor: Why Americans were in Hawaii in the first place? Hawaii's King and Queen asked Japan to help Hawaii Kingdom against US invasion in 1980-90s, and this was the true beginning. Cutting life lines like oil is an act of war. The ABCD Encirclement together with the Hull Note can also be regarded as an act of war by the International Law. Because of the oil embargo by US, Japan’s oil was runining out in January 1942. Then any country could have invaded Japan without too much effort. The Pearl Harbor attack was two months before that. After the War, when everything became clear, Douglas MacArthur testified at the US Senate Committee on Armed Services which is the highest rank committee in which US military officers can testify, that Japan fought for its security (not for invasion), while Charles Willoughby, a major general in the U.S. Army, said that any country would go to a war like Japan did if they were treated the same way. Hamilton Fish III, the Republican Leader at the time of the Pearl Harbor attack wrote after the WWII that nobody in the Congress knew such a provocative note (Hull Note) was delivered to Japan. Even though he was a member of the Foreign Affairs Committee, he was not informed. Because of the Note, Japan was left with no choice but to fight back or starve to death. The former President Hoover told MacArthur that Pearl Harbor was a mad man’s (FDR) plot to get a way into the War to help Britain. FDR's contemptuous refusal of the Japanese Prime Minister's peace proposal in September were the crucial precursors to Pearl Harbor. If the US did not provoke Japan, they would not have attacked us. Also, there was no definition of aggression then and even now in the International Law. Plus, in the Pact of Paris, all countries were assured of self-interpretation rights. Kellogg and Briand send a letter to Japan confirming this, and this letter still exists. “Freedom Betrayed” by George Nash “Tragic Deception” by Hamilton Fish III “Stalin’s Secret Agents: The Subversion of Roosevelt’s Government” by M.
