Why did President Roosevelt refer to the bombing as a date that will live in infamy?
At the time, Japanese delegates were in Washington, meeting with the US about the decline in US-Japanese relations. They were to have deciphered and translated a message from Japan that Japan would attack Pearl Harbor but they were late in getting the message translated and giving it to the US. By the time they arrived to deliver the message and warn America that there would be war, the attack on Pearl Harbor had already commenced! therefore, instead of America being forewarned and able to alert its forces in time, the attack came with no warning, thereby being declared a 'sneak attack'. Having had a sneak attack launched against us the President declared it was an infamous(underhanded) act.
