It was Japan's emperor with the silly idea of bombarding Pearl Harbor.
The Pearl Harbor advance-knowledge conspiracy theory is the idea that the American officials had advance knowledge of Japan's December 7, 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor but the conspiracy theory was never proved true.
No, the US were having peace talks with Japan and had no idea.
Historically, the river leading into Pearl Harbor on the Hawaiian island of Oahu was called the Wymumme (or Wy Momi) which translates to Pearl River. Additionally, the Pearl Harbor watershed doesn't contain any real rivers. Rather, the freshwater supply for Pearl Harbor is derived from five perennial streams (Halawa, Kalauao, Waiawa, Waikele, and Waimalu) and three intermittent streams (Aiea, Honouliuli, and Waiau). (U.S. Department of Interior, 1969).
The Japanese Army was happy with the various attacks on the British, Dutch & Americans (including the Pearl Harbor attack). The Japanese Army was the main force behind the idea of going to war with Britain & the US.
The attack on pearl harbor had a profound effect on the American people. Before this Roosevelt was looking for ways to aide the allied powers without angering the isolationists. The Pearl Harbor attack created an overwhelming sence of nationalism comparable to the aftermath of 9/11. Most people supported the idea of going to war with Japan after the attack.
Books written today state that the US knew about the attacks before hand.
Yes, until they lost the war. After the war, they realized that starting a war with the United States was a bad idea.
The United States Navy Commanders and Roosevelt felt they would attack elsewhere such at the Philippines, Midway or the west coast. Therefore Pearl Harbor had their guard down. The Commanding officer of the Pearl Harbor base and fleet lost his command due to his failure to have the sailors ready for action at all times. Roosevelt was in the middle of negotiations with a Japanese official at the time of the attack. Radio messages and warnings went unheeded so Pearl Harbor was descimated due to failures on the part of communications officers.
