Did this book you referenced give an opinion on exactly how much FDR knew about Pearl Harbor prior to 12/7/41?
FReegards...MUD
What FDR did know for sure was that the Japs intended to invade South Asia, and would avoid taking on Russia, and that they were coordinating overall strategic moves with Germany, and that America would not be able to stay out of the war because Germany would declare war on America if Japan and America went to war. He knew this because the diplomatic traffic was the area of best analysis. The moves of the Jap fleet were another matter.
