They us officials had spies all over the far east and so they were well aware and were well informed about what the japanese armies and navy were doing...

Canada declares war on Japan.
So U.S. Officials just happen to pick the same date for the False Flag attack on Pearl Harbor? Much too big a coincidence, unless the U.S. and Japanese governments were working in collusion, which is the most ludicrous idea I EVER heard of.
And while all this activity is going on, the Japanese major naval striking force, the most powerful one in the world at that time was cooling its heals in home port??? Also a ludicrous idea.edit on 4/9/2012 by fah0436 because: (no reason given)

I don't understand how nonsensical tosh such as this, which flies in the face of all historical evidence and facts can amass a substantial number of flags and replies, while far more worthy threads get ignored.
The OP is quite frankly deranged or a historical ignoramus.

Of course the japanese military and its high command wanted to and would take credit for the attack,to make them seem more strong and powerful,but did the common japanese citizens themselves take credit?

"Naturally the common people don't want war. Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country"

Stick with breaking news and leave the conspiracy theories alone.
My Grandfather had a piece of Japanese bomb in his leg since that Sunday morning long ago. He spent 4 weeks in the infirmary and went on to fight at Guadalcanal and Iwo Jima. He lost almost all of his friends that day and to be quite honest, your unsubstantiated claim is a slap in the face to all of them.
Be Ashamed!
I quite literally awakened yesterday morning with the thought in my mind that america attacked pearl harbor,not the japanese and as those startling thoughts and realizations were flowing vividly through my mind, the exact words that i used in this threads headline came to me and i think they somehow subconsciously stemmed from reading through the amazingly outside the box thread that member holywar666 recently started called,jfk was never killed.
and where exactly were those two american aircraft carriers? that were taken out of pearl harbor just days before the attack?

The Enterprise was attacking the Japanese aerial armada OVER Pearl harbor!
Which you never bothered to reply to!

And yes japan was involved in many other naval operations and attacks around the exact same time as pearl harbor was being attacked,an attack that lasted around 2 hours,but the japanese were operating in the far east, many thousands of miles away...
and so thats all the more reason to think that they would not have simultaneously put so much vast logistical and military effort into sailing 6 aircraft carriers, 11 destroyers, 2 battleships, 2 heavy cruisers, 1 light cruiser, 23 submarines and 8 oil and fuel tankers 4,000 miles away! to attack one american naval base...
and think about all those vital targets at pearl harbor,that i listed in my opening post,that were left untouched...
no american ever made visual contact with that huge japanese fleet that was supposedly out there and sending all the attacking aircraft into pearl harbor,seriously,think about that,not one american ever laid their eyes upon it...
and where exactly were those two american aircraft carriers? that were taken out of pearl harbor just days before the attack?
And why were those american long range ocean patrol planes ordered to stop just a couple of days before pearl harbor was attacked?
