Maybe he did. Maybe not. But the army, naval and air forces on the ground in Hawaii had no advance warning.

FDR wanted a Lusitania event to give him an entry into the war. He gave us Pearl Harbor instead. The US economy was still mired in the depression and FDR knew that a war would give people something else to think about while allowing the government to control the economy.
Bastard got everything he wanted.
