I'm combing through memory webs, but I recall that the military did a study of the defensibility of Pearl Harbor (1931-36) and concluded that such was not feasible. FDR, over the objections of Top Naval Brass, sent the Pacific Fleet, stationed in San Diego, to Pearl Harbor in February of 1941. Significantly, on the morning of December 7, the aircraft carriers were out-to-sea while the old-fashioned battleships got wasted by Japanese torpedoes from the air and sea. War Secretary Stimson wrote a note that night in his diary about his great relief that the deed was done. FDR is a singular figure in American history, part good guy, part bad. Apparently, he got on better with Stalin than Churchill, and was seen by elites as a "class traitor." The "Flat-tops" being out of the Harbor that morning has always been, to my mind, the most conspicuous sign that there was some foreknowledge of the attack. Funny how October 7 has not been framed as Israel's "Pearl Harbor moment."
The excuse that the new deal wasn't working was bullshit. It was purposely restricted and quickly rolled back after he wasn't president. The whole great depression was engineered, much like our current economic messes. Bubbles feed the wealthy and the pop hits the normal people.
Socialize losses, privatize profits.
Using war to jump start an economy is like taking drugs instead of food.
It makes you feel better in the short run but you're worse off afterward.
I can't stand how much bullshit they tell us in history.
It's just like the USSR, except Americans don't know that our history is equally edited.
Cutting off Japan's access to coal and other essentials was a provocation tactic to get them to attack. The Great Depression was severe in rural Japan, particularly where falling prices for rice and silk led to famine. The effects of the Depression in Japan were compounded by the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act of 1930, one of the most misguided pieces of legislation ever enacted by the U.S. Congress. This imposed draconian tariffs on imported goods in order to prop up domestic producers, but it also raised prices of goods for consumers and provoked retaliatory tariffs from other nations that deepened the worldwide depression.
I have a "little black BooK" with my Poems on it. WHO has Israel KILLED While I Typed that? How many kids , Mothers etc for Fr5eedom and DeMOCKRACY ? FU. Israel and U.S. are Terrorist STATES
At Pearl Harbor the surprise was fake but the attack and the response were real. The Navy was aware of Japanese intentions as early as 1927, and placed Honolulu under martial law in 1938 to prevent sabotage and spying. We responded by making war against the country that actually attacked us.
On 9/11 everything was fake. Saudi attacked us with our full consent and knowledge, and then we collaborated WITH Saudi to make war against Saudi's enemies. Crazy.
My husband and I were on a motorcycle tour in 2015 with a New York firefighter who had lost some of his colleagues on 9/11. When I asked his friend with him if that guy had any idea that the attacks were enabled by our government, he said no, and to please not say anything like that to him because it would really upset him. Even after that many years, he still believed it was a surprise attack by Muslims.
Them - continue to do what they want and promote their false ideologies , in my humble opinion -the 14 th amendment was the most violated in terms of their rational test and equal protection clause
We have moved so far from jeffersonian democracy and Tocqueville quotes , not even Hobbes would have a voice in this environment?
Thanks for sharing this important example of hidden history Cindy! Stinnett's work is eye opening for those who have always assumed the dominant narrative surrounding Pearl Harbor is accurate.
Here is another article from Stinnett that provides a brief overview of what he wrote in his book:
I was interested in making a comment on your Facebook Cindy danceintherain Sheehan post on RFKjr. I discovered that the opportunity to comment was not available to me. Is there a reason why I can’t comment on your FB page? Can this be corrected?
how did the United State entry into WWII "allow(ed) Hitler to execute his Final Solution"? I thought it stopped Hitler.... though I've since "learned" that it was Russia which managed to stop Hitler.
Coleen Rowley daily updates on FB are heart breaking. It’s the same pattern of official lies and propaganda just like Covid, Ukraine and Iraq. And most in this country believe it despite knowing these sources lie to them all the time. 😫😫😫

Thanks for adding this. I remember learning this at university

There's an important difference.
At Pearl Harbor the surprise was fake but the attack and the response were real. The Navy was aware of Japanese intentions as early as 1927, and placed Honolulu under martial law in 1938 to prevent sabotage and spying. We responded by making war against the country that actually attacked us.
On 9/11 everything was fake. Saudi attacked us with our full consent and knowledge, and then we collaborated WITH Saudi to make war against Saudi's enemies. Crazy.
You don’t think some response to 9/11 was real? All the NYPD and NYFD were in on it?
My husband and I were on a motorcycle tour in 2015 with a New York firefighter who had lost some of his colleagues on 9/11. When I asked his friend with him if that guy had any idea that the attacks were enabled by our government, he said no, and to please not say anything like that to him because it would really upset him.

What about the Kamaze fighters in Japan?
What about them?
Thank you Cindy & Co. after more than 20 years! KEEP ON ALL.

Are you my facebook friend?
I only take comments from friends.
I have made a request to become a friend but you never responded.
Ok. I will check it out when I get a chance. FB has limits and I have about 1500 requests that I can’t get to. Are you there under Ron Hollis?
✅ Ron Hollis
Thank you
how did the United State entry into WWII "allow(ed) Hitler to execute his Final Solution"? I thought it stopped Hitler.... though I've since "learned" that it was Russia which managed to stop Hitler.
It provided a smoke screen.
It was the brave people of the USSR that stopped Hitler--not Russia. Two different entities.
