About this title: A journalist finds overwhelming evidence that FDR knew of the attack on Pearl Harbor well in advance and that he kept it secret so that the Japanese first strike would convince Americans to back a declaration of war.

Description: Octavo, softcover, near fine. Giftable. Stinnett's expose of how the US intentionally provoked the Japanese into striking first as a way to unite the country behind war. This theory has been around for some time and is another of the reasons Republicans disliked this most popular of American presidents. (the other mainly being that he took us off the gold standard). read more
"Didn't you always want to know how Pearl Harbor could be attacked without any defence? Now we know.......Roosevelt knew, and he not only let it happen, he moved the Northern Fleet out the way so the Japanese could get within range. A MUST READ to understand Vietnam, and Iraq."
"Perhaps the most important book written about World War II as it defines the betrayal of our sailors and soldiers stationed at Pearl Harbor by the president of the USA, Franklin D. Roosevelt, as he kept secret his knowledge of the translations of decoded messages from Japan's Navy and Diplomatic corps.
Robert Welch, the founder of The John Birch Society, had revealed the treason of Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1954 in a letter to friends that was later published at "THE POLITICIAN," and Robert Stinnett's excellent book, entirely vindicates Robert Welch's assessment of Pearl Harbor and the betrayal behind FDR's prior knowledge and lack of warning to our general and admiral stationed at Pearl Harbor in 1941.
Understanding that President FDR wanted badly to draw America into war with Adolf Hitler and hadn't been able to, so found a back door approach by goading the Japanese into attacking our Pacific fleet and keeping Admiral Kimmel in the dark about the approaching attack, is important for all Americans if they are to understand our involvement in World War II. Knowing that a single man, a president of the USA, would betray his own armed services in order to allow a "surprise attack" on our naval base, so he could supply Congress with a reason to declare war on Japan and Germany, and having proof, is most important to understanding the machinations of powerful men who sit in the White House and get away with murder. FDR should be stripped of all acolades by all future generations of Americans.
This book is also,perhaps unintentionally, a warning to Americans about cover-up in high places, secrecy, and the media not getting it right."
"Lacking narrative coherence, repetitive and scattered, the text is tantalizing nonetheless. The author did his research, culling routing slips from archives which Congressional investigators ('45-'46, '95) overlooked.
It becomes clear in the first couple of chapters that the attack on Pearl Harbor was not a surprise...to those in the know. For political reasons, Army and Navy chiefs in Pearl Harbor were deliberately kept in the dark while lower-ranking intelligence officers forwarded intercepts to Washington detailing Japan's strike plan.
The attack was a deliberate provocation, the outcome of an eight-point memo drawn up by Arthur McCollum in order that the U.S. have sufficient cause to enter the war, a war most Americans did not want but whose leadership saw advantages unfortunately left unwritten, here."
