70 años despues siguen tratando a los muertos como heroes de guerra cuando su gobierno sabia q iban a morir, y si nos ponemos estrictos se diria q su gobierno los mato por q no hicieron nada para evitarlo, ya q era un mal necesario para ingresar a la guerra ya q el 80% de el pueblo de EU NO QUERIA INGRESAR A ESA GUERRA.

Ahora bien, se justifica q por ese ataque ellos ayan destruido completamente 2 ciudades japonesas llena de gente inocente con la bomba atomica???

No es raro q la historia de Estados Unidos este construida de una guerra tras otra, siempre han sacado beneficio de ello, si nos ponemos a ver cada una de las veces q Estados Unidos entra a alguna guerra es con cualquier pretexto q la mayoria de las veces ellos planean.

Hablando de Pearl Harbor en Hawai, Estados Unidos lo toma como un ataque cobarde y el pretexto perfecto para entrar a la guerra, cuando sabian perefctamente q iba a pasar ese ataque.(Igual que las Torres Gemelas)

Some of the comments below are disgusting and/or inaccurate. Not to mention how they show a total lack of respect for ALL those who fought and died or survived that attack (and their families) on BOTH sides.

Being part of the Axis powers, Japan was already in hostile negotiations with the US. The US was already at war with Germany, so Japan decided to destroy the US Pacific Naval force, avoiding all out war and at the same time meeting Japans demands. The Naval Admiral in the Japanese fleet has a famous phrase, "We failed to disable the slumbering giant. And now it awakens." This is why the fleet pulled back instead of invading Hawaii (completely capable) and further attacking California.

@gonojaja No, Japan went to war because China and The US signed a treaty making it impossible to trade raw materials which Japan lacks. Furthermore, The US was pressuring Japan to pullout of China since China was a ally of the US at the time (the non-communist side). Hence Japan was faced with a huge decision of attacking the US. Japan new strategically that the US could not be conquered by sheer difference in industrial and military might.

Japan was too stupid to attack Pearl Harbour. If Japan did not attack Pearl Harbour, America would not help China to fight against Japan. And Japan might had her fucking dream to conquer China and South East Asia come true.

@YGGD4eva Yeah it's true that Japan has changed a lot since the war but. Projected casualties of an amphibious assault on the mainland would've been over 2 million, just because the Japanese were trying to attack the military at pearl harbor it doesn't mean that civilians were an exception, they'd still open fire on them if they'd have the chance. If you think about it, it was a pretty logical thing to do at the time, who in there right mind would send their troops into a slaughterhouse?
