Was the public mislead about the realities of the Pearl Harbor attack?

No, everyone citizen of the United States new wat actually happened in Pearl Harbor. But the Japanease sent a message to president Rosevelt a few hours before the attack telling them they were goin to attack. The Japanease thought it was cowardly to do a suprise attack on a nation that wasnt even at war with them.


What conflict led Japan to attack the us and European colonies in southeast Asia?

How is Japan connected to the world?

Japan is connected to the world because of the Pearl Harbor attack, if it wasnt for the attack , WWII wouldn't have accelerated so fast . Japan was really smart because when they bombed Pearl Harbor, they made it hard to fight back because all the weapons were gone from the bombs. Now their was a big war because of Japan's bombing-History Channel is my resource ....&&imPrincessBoopie ;-]


Life after the 1941 bombs in Japan?

Since japan attacked Pearl Harbor in Hawiia in 1941 and the atomic bomb wasnt dropped in Japan till 1945, there were no effects of bombs in japan in 1941.


Was the attack on Pearl Harbor necessary?

From the point of view of the Japanese it ws necessary to put the U.S. fleet out of action so that they could launch their offensives south without any viable force to stop them. An attack on Pearl harbor, with the fleet docked in tidy rows, presented them with a great opportunity to inflict the most amount of damage with the least risk to their fleet assets. We can look back now and say the Japanese must have been off their rocker making the attack and not realizing what they were getting themselves into however at the time they saw war with the U.S. as inevitable. So there idea was to start it off with an attack that would grant them a big advantage, at least for a short amount of time...about 6 months. No, do you really think over 3,000 Americans deserved to die and all their weapons destroyed. pearl harbor wasnt really a needed battle 3,000 Americans didnt deserve to die. thank god we won the war the marines won it for us

What event led the US to take part in World War 2?

Poland and USA worked together as a trade group, When USA heard about Germany invading Poland they got really mad and made the treaty of Versailies. Is there anyone who can make that true or false? Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941. U.S. fought the japanease at first then president Rosevelt decided it was more important to take down Hitler first so that's y we moved to Europe and North Africa. O and by the way this answer above mine is completely false lol. The treaty of Versailies ended WW1 20 years before this. and The invasion of Poland started World war 2 but the us didnt enter it until 2 years later. Yes, but President wasnt involved in the Pearl Harbor was he?

How did the US weapons compare to the Japanese weapons at Pearl Harbor?

Their aircraft and torpedoes were ahead of ours (generally speaking) . However threre were smaller numbers of P40 aircraft that could compete but they were vastly outnumbered . Our small arms were much better than theirs ,1903 M1 Sprngfield rifle , Browning .50 machineguns. The M1 Garand wasnt in mass production at the time of Pearl Harbor . M1 carbine came later ,Hellcat & P51 Mustang aircraft and othr advancements came a year after pearl harbor .


Why wasnt the US neutral?

If you're talking aout WW2, The USA was neutral until the attack on Pearl Harbour by the Japanese. Then the USA joined the Allied forces and used the first Atomic Bomb on Hiroshima.


Why was an enemy fighter plane in the Pearl Harbor attacked called a Zero?

Because the aircraft was adapted by the Imperial Navy in 1940 (it entered service in 1941)...the last number indicating the aircraft's model number. The US does the same thing; the M1 rifle was adapted in 1941, therefore, it's the model 1.
