Why do horses stand in one direction?
The horse stance is a fundamental position in Asian martial arts. The width and depth varies from technique to technique. It doesn't really have a combative edge since it makes you unstable forwards and backwards although you have a great deal of stability on your sides. It's also not very good in combat since your legs are spread and supporting your weight equally which makes it not very mobile.
The horse stance is great for increasing leg strength. Especially the quadriceps as they contract in various places trying to balance your suddenly unstable torso.

What happened at Pearl Harbor and Why were the US attacked?
The Japanese, who had allied themselves with Nazi Germany in the late 1930's, were on an aggressive, imperialist campaign to conquer territory in the far east and the Pacific Rim. Their war machine depended heavily on imported oil. President Roosevelt of the US, decided that it was necessary to protest their imperialist, aggessive, and brutal tactics, and wrote an exeutive order prohibiting the sale of oil to Japan. That was taken as an act of aggression by Japan, who then plotted, planned, and executed the attack on Pearl Harbor on Sunday, December 7, 1941. The attack was unprovoked, and was launched before Japan formally declared war on the US.
Who built japans aircraft carriers that attacked pearl harbor?
Japan built them. They've been building steel warships since the 1890s. Some of their steel battleships used during the Russian/Japanese War in 1904 were built in Great Britain, as it was common practice for nations to purchase warships built abroad (still is today). The Russian battleship "Retvizon" used during the 1904 war was built in America. The best Russian battleship of the war, was French built, the "Tsesarevich."

Were any downed Japanese airmen captured and taken prisoner at Pearl Harbor?
I don't remember reading that any airmen were taken captive but one of the mini subs was captured on a neighboring island. There is a picture showing the men who piloted the subs in and around Pearl Harbor - all of those men are pictured except the man taken captive. He dishonored the Japanese therefore he lost his position in Japanese history.
Why did japan's attack on pearl harbor lead the US to declare war?
The Japanese attack was an overt & intentional act of war against the United States that required the United States to respond.

The US Declaration of War was requested by the President and formally approved by the US Congress the next day.
What were internment camps before they were used on Japanese Americans?
Some conspiracy theorists claim the camps were built prior to Dec. 7. In a few cases, existing buildings, such as well-used smelly horse stables at racetracks, were used. Another example is former Civilian Conservation Corps camps out in the hills. In Hawaii, some camps were simple canvas tents with a fence around them. Most internment camps were located and built new specifically to house the internees, and after the war, fell into disuse. For example, ex-POW Gerald Coffee recalled that as a child in California, his family moved to Reno Nevada after the Pearl Harbor attack because his father left his lumberyard employment for a long term construction job near there. Years, later, he discovered the job was the construction of an internment camp!
The effects on the internment of Japanese-Americans was negative psychologically. Shock and fear plagued the Japanese-Americans as a result of the internment camps.

Because there is evil in the world and not everyone wants to play nice. Simply asking them to be nice is seriously insufficient. They will laugh in your face as they raise their gun to kill you.
It's necessary when diplomacy fails ultimately, there's no other option, and the cause is demanding enough.
Opinion B:
Why did the Nazi Germany first go to war? The american economic crash of 1929 affected everyone. (won't get into all the details but It affected Germany very much). So Hitler came along (briefly once again) told the german folks that Germany should be in an autarky state. How do you become so? You need ressources, how do we get them? By expanding boundries. Now here is the thing RIGHT HERE Germany took I think 5 or 6 parts of countries they weren't really allowed to simply by pointing it and saying we want it. Now France, Uk and the Us didn't do anything to stop them.
Why is it necessary to do war? Sadly we live in a world where equality of ressources is impossible.
If the French/British had attacked the Nazi before september 1939, at the start of the expansion, the nazi army wouldn't have been able to defend their own territory thus millions would've been saved. Ignoring conflicts and tensions of this world can create even bigger turmoil and gives time to prepare.
Now this was a one case scenario, but it still answers the question asked.
Modern shipbuilding practice is to build ships in several subassemblies, called blocks. The blocks are constructed from the ground up, and loaded with as much outfitting (piping, electrical wiring, equipment) as possible. The blocks are built on the ground, and then erected onto the ship. The size of the blocks depends on the shipyards lifting capacity. The larger the blocks, the more efficient the build cycle is. Once all the blocks are erected onto the ship, the ship is then launched into the water where final production work is done, and the ship is tested. An incline test is performed to test the stability of the vessel. Before delivery of the vessel to the customer, the building yard will conduct a sea trials.
Would the US have gotten involved in World War 2 if the Japanese had not bombed Pearl Harbor?
Yes, the US would have joined the Allies even without Pearl Harbor, it was inevitable due to the fact that Roosevelt wanted to be in the war despite the neutral stance by most Americans. He had already illegally financed and supported Great Britain with the 50 destroyers and arms and goods for their war effort despite laws to the contrary. Sounds familiar to todays events! Roosevelt was right in wanting to join the Allies but he needed an overwhelming excuse to shock and awe the US citizens into supporting a move to war. Thanks Japan! If it hadn't been the Japanese, the next U-boat sinking of an ocean liner or something would have provided the spark needed to ignite the country.
