What the conspiroloons can never manage to explain is why the attack was
allowed to happen, the USA could have put up a heavy CAP, manned all AA
guns
and have already flown off a major counterstrike and still would have
been
at war as the attack came in, the only difference would have been in the
phrasing of the announcement and the fact that the US military would have
come out of it looking good.

Such an activity would deter Japanese from making the attack.

How?

You say the US knew and where when the attack was due, all they needed to do
was prep the a/c the night before and launch 30 mins before the attack, plus
wake the sailors up early and have them man the AA guns.

Reality is not your friend, is it?

The goal of FDR (and Churchill) was not to deter attack but lure Japan to
attack US so that the domestic opposition to US participation could be
overcome.

You haven't addressed why they couldn't defeat the attack yet, also you
havent explained how getting into a different war with Japan helps the USA
get into a war against Germany (or was Hitler in on the big plan too?).

Thats the reason why Washington gradually reduced the information sent to
Honolulu beginning from July 1941.
In other words Washington had a political goal and blindfolded Honolulu to
achieve this goal.

By sending a war warning?


A simple, "this morning at aprox 0600hrs the Japanese navy attacked Pearl
Harbour without warning, this infamous attack was defeated by the
courageous
actions of our Army and Navy, the United States is now at war" would have
done nicely.

It could easily be done,but it would not help FDR and Churchill as much as
shock and awe created by Japanese "surprise" attack.


So being IN a war by defeating a surprise attack helps your objective of
being IN a war less than being IN a war by not defeating a surprise attack
how?

Go to Http://www.ukan.edu/carrie/docs/texts/kimmel.htm
and read the testimony of Capt.Beach.

In Plain English he says basically:
"The goal justifies the methods used to achive the goal"

Again you feel the need to invent what people are saying.

You really should seek medical help.
