    I don't think there's such a thing.

    I've heard this rumor, so I shouldn't be very credible.

    China's intelligence services at the time weren't so good.

    However, there are rumors that the U.S. military had obtained information before the bombing, but it was too absurd to ignore it, and as a result

    I think that when the U.S. military bombed the U.S. military, the aircraft carriers were not in the port. The Japanese bombing did not damage the vitality of the American troops. Perhaps the U.S. military got the information and deliberately ignored it in order to give a reason to participate in World War II! Mobilize the hearts of the people!

    It's just a conjecture.

    I don't know, but hearsay says that the CIA had some clues before and could deduce the attack on Pearl Harbor. However, Roosevelt and the top brass vetoed this information in order to hasten the end of World War II, and the United States had to enter the war. Because World War II didn't do anything for the United States, they didn't start the fire and sold war money** and so on.

    Of course, the American people do not want to get involved in the war, and how to mobilize the people to fight the war is a problem, so the Pearl Harbor incident is a good reason. The American people, full of anger, joined the Allies to hasten the end of World War II.

    It's just wild history, not enough to believe, to tell the truth, I hope it's true, Roosevelt is too a leader, not from the perspective of the United States, but from the perspective of the world, but the Americans are estimated to spit on this great man.

    The battle was a top-secret Japanese secret. No one knows.

    <> Battle of Pearl Harbor.

    On December 7, 1941, during World War II, the Japanese army launched a surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, a naval base of the U.S. Pacific Fleet, which opened the prelude to the Pacific War.

    After the Qiqi Lugou Bridge Incident, the Japanese army began a full-scale invasion of China.

    In a short period of time, it occupied a large part of China's territory, using China as a base for the northward expansion of the Soviet Union into Southeast Asia and the southwestern Pacific region.

    As the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression entered a phase of stalemate and the combat operations of the invasion of the Soviet Union were frustrated, the Japanese high command felt that it was incapable of conducting two-sided combat at the same time.

    After the outbreak of World War II, with the development of the war situation in Europe and the signing of the Treaty of the Triple Alliance between Germany, Italy and Japan.

    Taking advantage of the favorable opportunity when Britain and France were busy with the war in Europe, the Japanese high command switched to a policy of attacking in the south and defending in the north. On June 22, 1941, the German army invaded the Soviet Union, and the outbreak of the Soviet-German war relieved Japan's worries about its southward advance.

    The Japanese High Command developed a plan in early July to further expand offensive operations in Southeast Asia while launching the Pacific War.

    Since Japan's southward offensive directly threatens U.S. interests and privileges in the Pacific, the United States has adopted a number of economic sanctions.

    In this way, the contradictions between Japan and the United States have become increasingly acute.

    In order to defend its vested interests in Asia and the Pacific, the United States has used Pearl Harbor as its main base and center of activities and has assembled a huge fleet of more than 100 ships.

    Direct results. The attack on Pearl Harbor was a brilliant victory in the short and medium term, far beyond the farthest imagination of its planners, and a rare result in the entire history of warfare. For the next six months, the U.S. Navy was insignificant in the Pacific theater.

    Without the threat of the U.S. Pacific Fleet, Japan could completely ignore the power of other powers in Southeast Asia, and since then it has occupied all of Southeast Asia, the southwestern Pacific Ocean, and its power has expanded all the way to the Indian Ocean. [11]

    Long-term effects. From a long-term point of view, Pearl Harbor was a complete disaster for Japan. In fact, Admiral Yamamoto, who planned Pearl Harbor, himself predicted that even if an attack on the US Navy was successful, it would not and could not win a war against the United States, because the United States was simply too productive.

    Four U.S. Navy capital ships were sunk and three were wounded. One of Japan's main targets was three American aircraft carriers, but none of them were in port at the time: the Enterprise was on its way back to Pearl Harbor, the Lexington had just sailed a few days earlier, and the Saratoga was being repaired in San Diego.

    Navies and other observers around the world believe that traumatizing the sinking of most of America's battleships was the greatest achievement of the campaign. Without these battleships, the U.S. Navy had to rely on its aircraft carriers and submarines, which were in fact the only ships in the U.S. Navy at the time, and these ships were the main force in resisting and later counterattacking Japan. Later it turned out that the destruction of the battleship had a much smaller effect than expected.

    Perhaps the most important thing is that the attack on Pearl Harbor immediately mobilized a country that was originally disagreeable. It united the United States to victory over Japan, and it may have been the reason why the Allies later demanded unconditional surrender. Some historians believe that the attack on Pearl Harbor itself had already determined the fate of Japan's defeat at that time, regardless of whether Japan only hit a repair tent or an aircraft carrier at that time.

Germany didn't know that at that time. Japan had already planned to attack the United States, and Germany knew about it, but all along, Germany had been vigorously opposed to Japan's attack on the United States, because the United States' participation in the war at that time was likely to directly reverse the situation of the war that was originally biased in their favor, and moreover, Japan at that time did not conquer China within a month as it had planned, and the war situation in East Asia was still unclear, and if the United States got involved, it would inevitably suffer from the enemy, so Germany has always opposed Japan's sneak attack on the United States in this regard. However, the Japanese emperor at that time seemed to have seen the defeat of the war and lost confidence in the war, so with their national character, they had to fight to the death. >>>More
