| | THE PEARL HARBOR DECEPTION |
 | | It was the Sunday morning attack on Pearl Harbor, and it began the United States' direct participation in World War II and ended the careers of the islands' two top military commanders, both of whom had stellar service jackets. | | | His ``Days of Deceit: The Truth About FDR and Pearl Harbor,'' documenting for the first time the real lack of intelligence information given to Kimmel and Short, continues to draw both raves, from supporters, and objections, from those who flatly say there was no conspiracy to deprive the two commanders of needed information. | | | The Congressional resolution cites a number of government Pearl Harbor inquiries and notes, for example, that a 1995 Department of Defense study concluded ``Army and Navy officials in Washington were privy to intercepted Japanese diplomatic communications... |

| | The New American - Pearl Harbor - December 8, 1986 |
| | The admiral had sound reasons: Pearl Harbor was vulnerable to attack; it could not be effectively rigged with nets and baffles to defend against torpedo planes; and in Hawaii it would be hard to supply and train crews for his undermanned vessels. | | | Those seeking the truth may do well to explore two factors commonly overlooked by Pearl Harbor historians: the global designs of the non-Communist Council on Foreign Relations and of the Communist Soviet Union. | | | A majority decision was handed down on Pearl Harbor that assigned most of the blame to the Hawaiian commanders, some of the blame to the War and Navy departments, and no blame at all to Roosevelt and his civilian administration. |

| | A new Pearl Harbor |
| | With all its shock and tragedy, the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor ended our naive innocence about the dangerous world we live in and united a very disunited country. | | | Pearl Harbor is the only thing in this century that can compare to the terrorist catastrophe that has struck the United States. | | | And what you saw in Jerusalem, the cheering of the mass murder of Americans in New York and Washington D.C, is I'm afraid the overwhelming view of the Arab street. |

| | Already in 2000 the right-wing authors of the "Project for the New American Century: Rebuilding America's Defenses," opined that the military expansion they desired would be difficult unless a "new Pearl Harbor" occurred. | | | This book, The New Pearl Harbor: Disturbing Questions about the Bush Administration and 9/11, is due for release in January, 2004. | | | The first startling piece of evidence that Griffin puts forward is establishing the motive among leaders in the Bush administration for allowing such an attack. |

| | A New Pearl Harbor - Global Issues |
| | The attacks of 11 September 2001 provided the "new Pearl Harbor", described as "the opportunity of ages". | | | What was needed for America to dominate much of humanity and the world's resources, it said, was "some catastrophic and catalysing event - like a new Pearl Harbor". | | | According to a classified document prepared for Rumsfeld, the new organisation, known by its Orwellian moniker as the Proactive Pre-emptive Operations Group, or P2OG, will provoke terrorist attacks which would then require "counter-attack" by the United States on countries "harbouring the terrorists". |

| | The New Pearl Harbor: Disturbing Questions About the Bush Administration and 9-11 (2004, ISBN 1566565529) is a book written by David Ray Griffin, a Professor of Philosophy of Religion at the Claremont School of Theology, that draws analogies between the September 11, 2001 attacks and the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941. | | | Howard Zinn, the author of A People's History of the United States, calls The New Pearl Harbor, "the most persuasive argument I have seen for further investigation on the Bush administration's relationship to that historic and troubling event."[6] | | | The title is taken from the 2000 paper "Rebuilding America's Defenses" produced by the Project for the New American Century, which noted that only a "new Pearl Harbor" would enable the military and governmental transformations the group desired. |

| | Of Pearl Harbor itself, he said that it came in direct response to a virtual ultimatum, the Hull note, from the U.S. government, and that the surprise attack was not treacherous because it should have been expected. | | | For that reason, some historians believe that the attack on Pearl Harbor itself doomed Japan to defeat simply because this awakened the "sleeping U.S. behemoth", regardless of whether the fuel depots or machine shops had been destroyed or even if the carriers had been caught in port and sunk. | | | Pearl Harbor Attack Hearings 7,000 pages of original documents, including detailed reports from various investigations. |

| | There's plenty of evidence that suggests FDR baited Japan into attacking Pearl Harbor, using it as an excuse to get us involed in the war (as Mona points out "isolationist fever" in the U.S. perhaps prevented him from entering the war without a direct threat to the U.S.). | | | You seem to agree with me about conscription, so we I think we're pretty much in agreement (although from what I've read the evidence is pretty convincing that FDR orchestrated Pearl Harbor to get the U.S. involved in the war). | | | Comment by: matt at April 7, 2004 05:16 AM Matt: Yes, there are those who argue FDR baited Japan into atacking the U.S. I personally doubt that was the sole or primary reason for Pearl Harbor, but whatever. |
