What did the Japanese official mean when he said i am afraid that we have awakened a sleeping giant?

Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto commanded Japan's Combined Fleet. It was he who insisted on attacking the American Fleet in Pearl Harbor, and who planned and directed the attack. Yamamoto believed this was the only chance the Japanese had to obtain victory in a war with the US. He said shortly after the attack "I fear all we have done is awaken a sleeping giant, and fill him with a terrible resolve."


What was the famous quote Franklin Roosevelt gave when pearl harbor was bombed?

Isoroku Yamamoto: "I can run wild for six months... after that I have no expectation of success." "I fear we have awakened a sleeping giant and filled him with a terrible resolve." (this is the most famous quote but comes from the film 'Tora Tora Tora' and has not been verified as having actually been said by Yamamoto).


How did the American soldiers respond to Pearl Harbor and how did they feel about entering the war after?

Being a VFW member, I've talked to some of these men and women and in general it was shock and horror. Shock that we could get caught with our pants around our ankles. Horror in seeing the devestation of the bombing. The death tolls, ships that were sunk with sailors stuck inside them. Then anger. The armed forces were chomping at the bit to back at them. It was Adm. Yamamoto who said "I fear we have awoken a sleeping giant". Well they did that and more.


What did the japaneese general say about the bombing of pearl harbor?

Isoroku Yamamoto supposedly said, "I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant." There is no evidence to prove Yamamoto made this statement or wrote it down. Just like one pilot supposedly said, "Pearl Harbor is in flames and smoke, and gasping helplessly." However, even though the Battle of Pearl Harbor was Yamamoto's idea, it is recorded that "Yamamoto alone" (while all of his teammates were celebrating) spent the day after Pearl Harbor "sunk in apparent depression".
