Did Hirohito order the attack on Pearl Harbor?

Hirohito did not ORDER the attack on Pearl Harbor. He permitted the attack. Admiral Yamamoto was the Admiral who ordered the attack and later regretted it because he failed to wait for the notification that war had been declared on the USA. He said, "We have woken up a sleeping giant." He was very correct on that thought.

The staff of Admiral Yamamoto prepared the plans and preparation for the attack on Pearl Harbour. Admiral Yamamota approved the plans once they were prepared. Japanese Senior Naval Officers routinely utilized their staff to prepare plans and approved or disapproved them.Answeralthough it was Yamamoto and his officers that planned the attack, the plan was formed aboput a month after the attack on the Italian Fleet at Taranto in 1940, Admiral Yamamoto studied this attack thoroughly, using it as his blue print. (all he needed to do was wait until his enemy had his fleet at anchor in a shallow harbour before attacking.)


What was main event on the attack of pearl harbor?

A series of events led to the attack on Pearl Harbor. War between Japan and the United States had been a possibility that each nation's military forces planned for since the 1920s, though real tension did not begin until the 1931 invasion of Manchuria by Japan. Over the next decade, Japan expanded slowly into China, leading to all out war between the two in 1937. In 1940 Japan invadedFrench Indochina in an effort to embargo all imports into China, including war supplies purchased from the U.S. This move prompted the United States to embargo all oil exports, leading the Imperial Japanese Navy to estimate that it had less than two years of bunker oil remaining and to support the existing plans to seize oil resources in the Dutch East Indies. Planning had been underway for some time on an attack on the "Southern Resource Area" to add it to the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere that Japan envisioned in the Pacific.The Philippine islands, at that time an American territory, were also a Japanese target. The Japanese military concluded that an invasion of the Philippines would provoke an American military response. Rather than seize and fortify the islands, and wait for the inevitable US counterattack, Japan's military leaders instead decided on the pre-emptive Pearl Harbor attack, which they assumed would negate the American forces needed for the liberation and reconquest of the islands.Planning for the attack had begun in very early 1941, by Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto. He finally won assent from the Naval High Command by, among other things, threatening to resign. The attack was approved in the summer at an Imperial Conference and again at a second Conference in the fall. Simultaneously over the year, pilots were trained, and ships prepared for its execution. Authority for the attack was granted at the second Imperial Conference if a diplomatic result satisfactory to Japan was not reached. After final approval by Emperor Hirohito the order to attack was issued at the beginning of December.
