Asked about the attack on Pearl Harbor, Dewey said that no link has ever been conclusively established between Hitler and the Dec. 7, 1941, attack on Naval forces in Hawaii by the Japanese. “No such link has ever been proven, because no such link exists,” he said. “Roosevelt made it up.” There was no linkage - Hitler wanted Japan to attack the USSR from the East.

But a similar mindset. And in the end that's what we were fighting then....and now. The idea that you can kill people because of the race, religion, nationality, or that they are in your way. It'a a war that's been going on forever, and I don't expect it to end until the King returns.

Correct, the Germans were as surprised about the Pearl Harbor sneak attack as we were. Hitler was really stupid to declare war in the US when the pact between germany and Japan didi't call for it. It would only came in to effect if we had attacked Japan.
