Ah the rantings of the conspiracy wierdos. So the US knew the Japanese were going to attack Pearl Harbor and let it happen. Thats a great strategy, let your pacific fleet get crippled so you can enter the war. LOL
Once the Japanese made up their mind to attack they were not turning back. They were going to attack Pearl Harbor come hell or high water.
How about this for strategy, if the US knew of the attack they would have met the Japanese attack force and attacked them first. If the US knew that attack force was out there that would be reason enough to enter the fray. But no it's a much better idea to let your Pacific fleet get hammered as well as let many Americans die. Nice thought process.
