I fear if it were repeated today we'd broker a deal to pay Japan not to do it again.

Or wait for direction from the UN?

Or maybe we'd follow the path set when our sovereign ground in Libya was attacked and jail the relatives of the guy who made Godzilla.

We gone from waking a giant to waking a giant pussey.

Then move or start another thread but for **** sake don't hijack every god damn thread with you constant whining. This thread was in memory of Pearl harbor until you made it about YOU and your hatred for everything not Republican. You are truly the YING to RIOTS YANG.

If it happened today, the CIA wouldn't be able to tell us who did it or the perpetrators would be declared classified information. Congress would "investigate" it with a great deal of pontificating on both sides which would end with no conclusions as to what we should do. Corporations would decide that Japan was probably going to win the war so they'd start moving factories there.

i think this is absurd.
huge difference between an attack by a country and it's military against another, and an attack from a mob flying no flags in a foreign country filled with unrest.


and this was not the intent of this thread. too bad it's getting muddied up.

It's too bad we live in a day and age when we feel we have to bribe our enemies not to attack.

Maybe if we gave government handouts to bullies in school we could put the end to bullying all together.

Good. That was my intent. Not to muddle up, but to be absurd. When you start with a hypothetical, you kind of figure, it's going to be absurd.

In the interests of moving this thread back to the original intent, here's a link to FDR's "Day that will in infamy" speech (audio and transcript):
