Does anyone remember why Japan attacked the US on Dec 7th at Pearl Harbor? A response to economic actions taken by the US against Japan. Let’s think twice before doing something stupid that initiates what we don’t want to happen...
Because the Japanese were such fine upstanding people before that. lol
Russia has invaded a neighbor and now several thousand people are dead. Today Putin threatened nuclear war. What would you suggest the proper course of action is when a failed state like Russia acts in such a manner?
The Japanese Navy was consuming about 1200 tons of fuel oil per day without even engaging in fleet manuevers. When Roosenfeld cut off the US oil exports the Nips were down to a few months reserves and they couldn’t have waited much longer than early December to strike.
Nice revisionist memory...
