Researchers ... found a Japanese midget submarine sunk more than an hour before the attack on Pearl Harbor. Discovery of the 78-foot vessel could provide the first physical evidence to back U.S. military assertions that it fired first against Japan in World War II and inflicted the first casualties.

Well, THAT changes everything. America was at fault for the Pacific portion of WW2, now I know for sure. I mean, what were our forces thinking to take out an armed mini-sub from a nation friendly to Germany and not exactly friendly to the US, during a world war, before it could be given a chance to fire on them?

Yes, America was at fault once again. Shame on us.

Not.
