	::Pearl Harbour::
		If a catastrophic blow could be struck against America at Pearl Harbour, then the Japanese surmised that America would pull out of the region leaving it free for the Japanese to continue their expansion in the Far East.
		Admiral Husband Kimmel (the naval commander at Pearl Harbour) and General Walter Short (head of the army at Pearl Harbour) were held responsible by the American government for not taking the necessary precautions despite the worsening diplomatic relations between Japan and America.
		One crew member of the 'Tangiers' also reported that the chain that was always put across the mouth at the entrance to Pearl Harbour at night for added security against a sea borne attack, was not secured on the night of December 6th.

	Pearl Harbor Revisionism
		One of the difficulties in discussing the issues related to Pearl Harbor is the recent hijacking of the word "revisionism" by certain groups, particularly the Holocaust deniers.
		Pearl Harbor revisionism is historical scholarship which disputes the official Administration judgement that the unreadiness of US forces when the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941 was solely the fault of the local commanders in Hawaii, Admiral Kimmel and his colleague in the Army, General Walter C. Short.
		First Order revisionism holds President Franklin D. Roosevelt personally responsible for the debacle at Pearl Harbor and regards him as having used the incident as a means to get the United States involved in the War and subsequentely used the Hawaiian commanders as scapegoats to shift public attention away from the activities of the Administration.

	Salon.com Arts & Entertainment \| "Pearl Harbor": Bombs away!
		The heroism of "Pearl Harbor" is unsullied by anything as mundane as patriotism -- it's hard to figure out if Bay and screenwriter Randall Wallace ("Braveheart," "The Man in the Iron Mask") think flag-waving is uncool or in bad taste or both.
		"Pearl Harbor" is all lovin' and kissin' and brave fighter pilots, when it's not screaming men being blasted from their ships.
		Wallace's narrative uses the bombing of Pearl Harbor as a backdrop for the story of the deep and lasting friendship between Rafe (Ben Affleck) and Danny (Josh Hartnett), who have been buddies since they were little squirts.

	Pearl Harbour becomes a love story for Japanese - Telegraph
		As a result, Pearl Harbour will play on patriotic sentiments when it is promoted in the United States, while in Japan it will be more sensitively billed as "a compelling human drama, touching love story, [with] big stars [and] big action", according to Hideo Suzuki, the head of marketing at BVI.

	Pearl Harbor Raid, 7 December 1941
		The U.S. Fleet's Pearl Harbor base was reachable by an aircraft carrier force, and the Japanese Navy secretly sent one across the Pacific with greater aerial striking power than had ever been seen on the World's oceans.
		However, the memory of the "sneak attack" on Pearl Harbor fueled a determination to fight on.
		Once the Battle of Midway in early June 1942 had eliminated much of Japan's striking power, that same memory stoked a relentless war to reverse her conquests and remove her, and her German and Italian allies, as future threats to World peace.

		Likewise, the cutoff of oil and scrap iron to Japan, the freezing of her financial assets and other steps were aimed at drawing an aggressive response.
