23. Day of Deceit by Robert Stinnett seeks to blame FDR's LIHOP

Edited on Wed May-11-05 08:05 PM by EVDebs

plan to get the US into WWII. FDR and US intell knew the Dec 7th attack was coming and let it happen. But Adm. Kimmell and Gen Short did have some notice and no torpedo nets in on Battleship Row nor the radarmen, who also saw the planes coming were given a priority. BTW, Stinnett's book shows that Kimmell was told that war was coming in July 1940, not like he didn't have a clue.

Bush & company thru PNAC chose to ignore GHWBs and Scowcroft's warnings about a war and occupation. But pretext is needed. The sad thing in all of this is that Bush may try to excuse his 'day of deceit' by pointing the finger back at FDR.

Pathetic. "New Pearl Harbor" ?
