Have we forgotten what today is? We all know the original story of ---Pearl Harbor (http://www.pearlharbor.org/) (via WRSA (http://westernrifleshooters.blogspot.com/))
But do you know the alternative one...
The Bombing of Pearl Harbor (http://www.apfn.org/apfn/pearl_harbor.htm)
On 7 December 1941 the greatest disaster in United States history occurred. Truly this was and is, “’A date which will live in infamy.’”(Costello 1), but not for the bombing of Pearl Harbor, rather for the deception and the mis-guidance used by the Government and Franklin D. Roosevelt. In a purely artificial chess game Roosevelt sacrificed over 2400 American Seamen’s lives, thanks to his power as Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces. By over-looking the obvious facts of an attack by Japan on Pearl Harbor, Roosevelt was able to control both the political and economic systems of the United States. Most of American society before the Pearl Harbor bombing believed in the idea of isolationism.....
We may all live without respect for Roosevelt or his elite friends in war, but I think its prudent to always remember the victims with a full understanding of why they died. Today is one of those days that we should recall the thousands of needless deaths that occurred on that day. And in this day of memoriam lets us re-focus our efforts on the task of ridding tyranny from our shores.
