Of course remember all the secret Japanese war transmissions and communiques were already decrypted by the US before the attack. They wanted it to happen. They let them die on purpose and are not forgiven.

There's a timeline people rarely talk about. What if Japan had never attacked Pearl Harbor because we never moved the fleet?

I think China would look very different today. We also would have had more resources for the war in Europe and thus the west would have given up less land to the Soviet Union. The Vietnam and Korean wars would have likely never happened because Japan would be the closest anti-communist state and therefor it's responsibility (if they would already be invaded to begin with).

Yep. The war between the US and Japan was a win for communism.

Pearl Harbor was a US false flag, the Japs never attacked us.

Prior to WW2, the US Navy had a problem. Aircraft carriers were a new innovation, one that changed the way naval battles were fought. The old battleships we had used up to that point were now obsolete, because they were too slow to keep up with the carrier groups. Only those useless old battleships were taken out at Pearl Harbor that day. We moved our fancy new carriers far away in anticipation.

If they were so useless, why were they refloated and used all throughout the war?

Of all the ships damaged at Pearl Harbor and later repaired, only one was a Battleship that actually sank. That would be the USS California, which was out of service until 1944. Four other battleships were repaired and used, but not as part of a carrier group. Only Iowa class battleships were fast enough for that duty.

Shit if they would have kept it in California the state would probably be less gay
