The Japs knew when to bomb Pearl Harbor because of a phone call from a known Jap sympathizer giving the particulars about that day.

Off subject, but I was watching a show on the History Channel last night on the Samurai and at the end of the show, they were talking about Kamakazi pilots. I don't know why I never saw the connection sooner, but it struck me differently last night. The similarities between the kamakazi pilots and the 9/11 hijackers were amazing. Both acts were meant to start a war. Both acts used planes. Both acts purposely targeted US assets. Both were surprize attacks. Both caused huge damage and considerable loss of life.

Osama did do a little bit of history education on his enemy, didn't he?
