#1 After the attack on Pearl Harbor, President Franklin D. Roosevelt appointed a commission to investigate the incident. The report stated that Washington officials had performed their duties impeccably, and that the blame lay with the commanders in Hawaii: Admiral Husband Kimmel and General Walter C. Short.

#2 The American people reacted with rage when Kimmel and Short were found guilty by the Roberts Commission. However, the truth was kept confidential. In 1982, books were published that revealed the truth about Washington’s foreknowledge of the attack.

#3 The Roosevelt administration received several warnings regarding Pearl Harbor in 1941. The first was from the American ambassador to Japan, Joseph Grew, who reported that the Japanese were planning to attack Pearl Harbor before Christmas.

#4 The 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor was depicted in the 2001 movie Pearl Harbor, starring Ben Affleck. The movie portrayed Washington as completely surprised by the attack. However, new evidence has surfaced showing that Washington was not only deciphering Japanese diplomatic messages, but naval dispatches as well.
