What warning message? The Naval base at Pearl Harbor was equipped with the new technology called "radar". The military officer in charge decided that the radar equipment was faulty and as such refused to send out a warning. Roosevelt had no special information and certainly did not believe that the Japanese military was about to attack. In fact, the Japanese had been involved in talks with the U.S. government and deliberately gave assurances that there would be no action taken to sieze Hawaii as they had done on so many other islands of the Pacific. If you have been told that Roosevelt had information about a pending attack, you were misinformed.
