Why did Japan bomb Pearl Harbor and how much did this cost the United States?

Because Pearl Harbor is the third island chain of the United States, far from the American mainland, Japan will not be able to attack the United States if Pearl Harbor is not destroyed. In fact, to be honest, it didn't bring much damage to the United States (at most, people seem to have had such a report), and now even the Japanese think that the Pearl Harbor incident was known in advance, and Roosevelt ** deliberately let you bomb it without defense, only in this way can the United States declare war on Japan (in fact, the United States does not want to fight, because you are in Europe and Asia, what does it matter to them), so that World War II reached its peak, and Japan laid the root cause for itself and the defeat of World War II.

As commander of the Combined Fleet, Isoroku Yamamoto was well aware of the formidable war potential of the United States because of his experience as a military attache at the Japanese Navy's embassy in the United States. Personally, he opposed the southward expansion policy and went to war with the United States, but when the Japanese military department decided that it was necessary to go south to wage war with the United States, Britain, and other countries, he had to destroy the US Pacific Fleet by surprise in order to ensure that the war would turn in Japan's favor after the war. In the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, most of the main surface combat ships of the US Pacific Fleet were lost, but the aircraft carriers of the US Pacific Fleet were spared because they were not at Pearl Harbor.

It is ridiculous that after this battle, the United States quickly recognized the role of aircraft carriers and quickly used them as the main force of the fleet, while Japan still used battleships as the main force.

The main reason is that the U.S. defense line in Zhen hinders Japan's interests in the Pacific; If the U.S. aircraft carriers had not gone out on patrol at that time, the kamikaze would have wiped out most of the U.S. forces in the Pacific.

Because the Japanese knew that in order to realize their plan for a greater East Asian co-accommodity, they would have to fight with the United States. Rather than being forced to go to war with the United States in the end, it is better to strike preemptively and adopt the method of sneak attack, even if it cannot completely annihilate the US Pacific Fleet, it will have to fight it for several months and it will not be able to regain its combat effectiveness. Therefore, Japan's surprise attack on Pearl Harbor was a move of helplessness and gambling.

The United States has imposed a strategic resource embargo on Japan! And Japan, in line with the principle of nourishing war with war, caused the US Pacific Fleet to lose its combat effectiveness within one to two years! So that most of its power can be used on the battlefields of Asia! Plunder resources in Asia! In order to achieve the purpose of fighting to feed the war!

The biggest obstacle to Japan's southward expansion strategy was the United States, and at that time, if the Japanese Combined Fleet concentrated its main forces in a decisive battle, it would have the strength to annihilate the US Pacific Fleet.

Without bombing Pearl Harbor, can he rest assured that he will be able to toss in Asia?

Judging from the information declassified after the war, the attack on Pearl Harbor was an energy war, to be precise, because the United States imposed an oil embargo on Japan, and as a result, Japan took an extreme measure. Before the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, Japan had already waged a four-year war in Asia, one of the important purposes of which was to plunder resources, and the first choice was to destroy oil in stone and void.

Japan is extremely short of oil resources, and this energy shortage has become a fatal weakness for its world domination. Before Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor, 90 percent of the country's oil needed to be imported, and 85 percent of its oil came from the United States.

It is very normal for Japan to sneak attack the United States, just like Germany's sneak attack on the Soviet Union, hoping to temporarily gain the advantage of the war, and then obtain the resources of the occupied area, so as to achieve the goal of nourishing the war with the war of the bush.

Summary. Hello dear! Generally speaking, Japan's surprise attack on Pearl Harbor was their only option, and Yamamoto, the commander-in-chief of their combined fleet, had served in the U.S. Navy in his early years and had a deep understanding of the gap between the United States and Japan, so he had always been strongly opposed to a war with the United States.

However, in that situation, the Japanese army had to fight the Americans, and although this decision was quite stupid in the eyes of many people, the whole plan was actually inevitable and reasonable when viewed carefully. After making the decision to go to war with the Americans, it was a very correct decision to take the heart of their Pacific Fleet.

Hello dear!

However, in the case of Blind State, the Japanese army had to fight the Americans, although this decision was quite stupid in the eyes of many people, but the whole plan actually had a certain inevitability and rationality when viewed carefully.

After making the decision to go to war with the Americans, taking the heart of their Pacific Fleet was a very correct decision.

Why did the United States attack Pearl Harbor.

Hello dear! In fact, before the Pacific War, everyone knew that Japan and the United States were stupid and that they would definitely lose. At that time, Japan's industrial output was only $9 billion, while the United States had more than $200 billion, accounting for one-third of the capitalist world, and by 1948 it accounted for more than half.

Japan produces 5.8 million tons of steel a year, while the United States produces 3.3 million tons. After the outbreak of the Pacific War, the United States also rapidly expanded its military, reaching 10.5 million troops by 1945. The U.S. Oak National Drag can also drag Japan to death.

Everyone knows that during World War II, Japan launched a surprise attack on Pearl Harbor in order to grab resources, and the Americans were caught off guard! Why do some people say that Japan's surprise attack on Pearl Harbor was single-handedly planned by the United States and the Japanese to play tricks? Do you know why?

If you don't know yet, let's go and have a look.

During World War II, the Pacific War broke out completely after Japan's surprise attack on Pearl Harbor in the United States, and the world war quickly entered a white-hot stage due to the entry of the United States. Then why did some people say that the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor was planned by the United States?

Because the United States was a peaceful country at that time, there were no disputes or wars with other countries, and it was always in a state of peaceful coexistence. Of course, they were the number one military power in the world at that time, and no one dared to fight him. However, there was also a certain sense of crisis in the United States at that time, because Hitler had already occupied almost the whole of Europe, and if Hitler had won the war in Europe at that time, the spearhead would inevitably be pointed at the United States.

Therefore, when World War II broke out, the United States repeatedly participated in this battle to prevent Hitler's hegemonic rule. However, the United States was a democratic country at the time, and after repeatedly initiating this proposal, it was met with opposition from the masses. But then, when it became clear that Hitler was ready to dominate Europe, the United States began to find ways to join the fight, and Japan became their target!

At that time, in order to involve itself in this war, the United States suddenly interrupted the material transportation between the United States and Japan, wanting to provoke Japan to attack itself, so that they could arouse public indignation, so as to join the war, and Japan at that time could not bear it after the United States cut off the material **, so it directly sent troops to attack Pearl Harbor in the United States, and after Japan completely angered the American masses, the Pacific Ocean also broke out completely!

And after the outbreak of the Pacific Ocean, the Americans also achieved their goal and officially joined the war. However, after the outbreak of the Pacific War, the United States did not focus entirely on this contest with the Japanese, but sent most of its troops and materials to the European theater. It is obvious that the main purpose of the United States at that time was Germany rather than Japan, and Japan's sneak attack on Pearl Harbor was only tricked by the Americans.

Because the strength of the United States is very strong, and there are many high-tech technologies, even at that time, it was possible to resist Japan's sneak attack, and it could have been discovered when Japan sneaked attack, but it allowed Japan to sneak attack, so it is said that it was deliberate, and there was a legitimate reason to attack Japan.

Some people also said that the US top brass already knew the time and place of Japan's attack through deciphered intelligence, and that the United States needed a reason to join World War II at that time, so he may have known about Japan's surprise attack on Pearl Harbor.

This approach will really pull the United States into World War II and can really intervene in this war, so there is such a statement, which is very controversial.

Of course, Japan knew what was at stake, but militaristic Japan was bound to invade and expand in order to plunder resources to meet Japan's needs. Southeast Asia, which is rich in resources, is Japan's combat target, and it is easy to deal with these countries, but it will inevitably arouse the resolute opposition of the United States and Britain, especially the United States, and it is easy for a conflict to break out. As the war approaches, the scope of the United States against Japan is becoming more and more tight, resulting in Japan's resources becoming increasingly tight, and an attack on Southeast Asia is on the way, which will inevitably lead to the armed intervention of the United States.

Japan's wishful thinking is that the Americans have to take into account the eastern and western fronts, so once the Pacific Fleet is destroyed, then Japan can dominate the Asia-Pacific region for two years, and then fight a decisive battle with the United States after the United States recovers its strength two years later.

It was Franklin Delano Roosevelt, who fought Pearl Harbor in order to destroy the US Pacific Fleet and achieve defeat.

American purpose, but the American aircraft carrier was not at Pearl Harbor, Japan failed, and the United States began to retaliate, bombing Tokyo.

Japan is actually gambling, they want speed.

Japan's ultimatum to the United States expired, and the main targets were three American aircraft carriers of the "Yorktown" class: USS Yorktown, USS Enterprise, and USS Hornet. It is a pity that all three ships are not in Hong Kong, in fact, Yamamoto also knows the crisis of this operation, but Japan is attacking the United States from the sea, and it must seize the control of the Pacific Ocean, so it must destroy the US Pacific Fleet, and Japanese planes flew into the Pacific Fleet base Pearl Harbor air raid.

It's just that Yamamoto is smart but is mistaken by cleverness.

Oh, by the way, it was Franklin. Draenau. Roosevelt, he was the first American** to be re-elected to the United States three times. He died on April 12, 1945, and was succeeded by Truman in the United States.

It was Roosevelt.

Japan's target should be the 3 aircraft carriers of the United States, which should be to strike at the ocean-going combat capability of the United States, and it does not want the United States to be involved! Because at that time the United States really wanted to enter the war! ~

There was a reason why Japan attacked Pearl Harbor. Roosevelt sympathized with the Chinese and ordered an economic blockade of Japan, not importing oil from Japan, and Japan did not produce oil, so it had to abuse other countries' oil, so Japan attacked Pearl Harbor.

It was Roosevelt at the time. Japan only fought when it knew, in fact, the United States had long wanted to go to war, otherwise how could it be so coincidental when it fought? ? The aircraft carriers are all out of port.

Japan wants to control all of Southeast Asia.

It was Luo who made the United States involved in the second station and accelerated the end of the second station.

Pearl Harbor drew the United States into the Allied camp ahead of time.
