How many know that US Gov. knew about Pearl Harbour attack prior to it happening?
That's the question. I have been having a discussion online with someone, who happens to be American, about what will happen with this whole Iraq thing.
I brought up the point that the government may have allowed September 11th to happen, so they could get public votes towards taking action against Iraq.
I also mentioned about Pearl Harbour attack being known, and that it could be the same. The person I was talking to mentioned that there are always conspiracies, and true there are, but I asked if they knew about the US government knowing about Pearl Harbout attack before it happened, and they never heard of that before. So I found a site and grabbed this bit of text out of the first long paragraph... I'm curious to see what Americans/other people know about Pearl Harbour..
Here's the text... You can do a search on Google and find a lot..
"Using documents pried loose through the Freedom of Information Act during 17 years of research, Stinnett provides overwhelming evidence that FDR and his top advisers knew that Japanese warships were heading toward Hawaii. The heart of his argument is even more inflammatory: Stinnett argues that FDR, who desired to sway public opinion in support of U.S. entry into WWII, instigated a policy intended to provoke a Japanese attack. The plan was outlined in a U.S. Naval Intelligence secret strategy memo of October 1940; Roosevelt immediately began implementing its eight steps (which included deploying U.S. warships in Japanese territorial waters and imposing a total embargo intended to strangle Japan's economy), all of which, according to Stinnett, climaxed in the Japanese attack. Stinnett, a decorated naval veteran of WWII who served under then Lt. George Bush, substantiates his charges with a wealth of persuasive documents, including many government and military memos and transcripts. Demolishing the myth that the Japanese fleet maintained strict radio silence, he shows that several Japanese naval broadcasts, intercepted by American cryptographers in the 10 days before December 7, confirmed that Japan intended to start the war at Pearl Harbor."
