I believe people in the chain of command didn’t believe Japan would attack us like that. It was a suicide mission
It’s been proven they knew the attack was coming and let it happen. They didn’t tell anyone at Pearl Harbor though and tried to throw that commander under the bus. Documents finally came out about the whole thing

quote:You should read contemporary material from the period immediately preceding Dec 7th 1941. It was crystal clear in the War Dept that we were forcing the Japanese into war. (Just as we did with the CSA at Sumter; just as we did with Putin in Ukraine). One example of many, a few days before Pearl Harbor, FDR's Sec of War, even detailed the pervasive effort to get Japan to "fire the first shot" in his diary.
