Why did the Japanese attack Pearl Harbor?
I have read/heard that the US government knew ahead of time that the Pearl Harbor attack was going to happen.
1. Is this true?
2. Why did the Japanese attack Pearl Harbor?
Please leave thoughtful informative comments. Nothing hateful or racist. I am looking for serious and intelligent answers.
The United States had been refusing oil shipments to Japan, weakening their ability to supply their armed forces. Japan decided to attack before it got too weak to fight. Japan's navy was weaker at the time than the American one, so they chose to use a surprise attack to better ensure their chance at success.
There is a strong possibility that the American government did, in fact, know beforehand. Records from the time show that an American reconnaissance pilot came across the Japanese fleet and radioed their heading and position back to his base. That information was recorded as having gotten to the White House at least 45 hours ahead of the attack's actual beginning.
The Department of Defense said that they believed the attack was actually going after the bases in the Philippines, believing that the Japanese Navy would never directly attack the technologically and numerically superior American Navy, and that that was the reason why no warning was sent to Pearl Harbor.
However, no warning was sent to the Philippines' bases either.
