Admiral Yamamoto, who led the sneak attack on Pearl Harbor, allegedly said, after the attack:
"I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve."
After today's FBI raid I believe many Democrat politicians will soon be saying the same thing about the American electorate.
“...Everyone I’ve spoken with is absolutely livid.”
Alas, shared lividness isn’t a plan. it could be a start, but it’s not a plan.
Recall Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
“Recall Hiroshima and Nagasaki.”

Right. Why would he say that about his own plan? The original plan was to invade the Philippines and ambush the US fleet when it sailed to the rescue. Yamamoto changed all that. The sneak attacks were all Yamamotos idea.
I think you're right.
