“No moment in the history of the United States casts a longer shadow than Pearl Harbor. “Remembering” it has become a national imperative, a patriotic duty for the American people, and reminding us of that duty has become a ritual of media and political discourse—repeated so often and in so many ways that it’s become part of the routine of our communal life.”

Was quoted by Rob Citino, Phd

Eagle in the Mirror, Ellis is quoted as saying: "[Stephenson] was convinced from the information that was reaching him that this attack was imminent, and through jimmy Roosevelt, President Roosevelt's son, he passed this information to the President. Now whether the President at that time had other information which corroborated this... it's impossible to say."

"Yesterday, December 7, 1941 — a date which will live in infamy — the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air forces of the Empire of Japan." - President Franklin D. Roosevelt

The impact affected the US because the attack took out most of the battleships. The Impact started the US's entry in WWII. The impact also started a fight between the US and japan and would soon lead to the atomic bomb vaporizing japan. Not only that but the impact destroyed most of the ships and carriers at the harbor. Of the eight U.S. Battleships present, all were damaged and four were sunk. All but Arizona were later raised, and six were returned to service during the war. The Japanese also sank or damaged three cruisers, three destroyers, an anti-aircraft training ship.

During the attack Japan missed the Us's oil supply. Not only the US fleet was in danger, also the island Hawaii was in danger because if a bomb hit a certain point it could potentially lead to a volcanoes eruption. Hawaii had only become a US possession in the 1890s. Japan used kamikaze fighters which think dying in battle is a great honor so the pilots are flying their planes into ships when they run out of bombs and ammo they use their ship as a torpedo and commit suicide. Japan threw a lot of their forces at Hawaii because they desperately needed the resources.

On December 7, 1941 Japan flew over pearl Harbor and fired ammunition, dropped bombs, and their main focus was the big carrier ships, and battleships. The reason for this was that Japan needed resources badly and there island hopping wasn't enough. Japan focused their sights onto Hawaii and focused on the US battleships so the US couldn't fight back as fast as they usually do.
