72 years after "The Day which will live in Infamy", Dec. 7, 1941, myths still surround the Japanese attack that plunged the US into WWII.
MYTH ONE: The US Government had no prior knowledge that the Japan would attack before December 7.
Despite the fact that Japan had been at war with most of their Asian neighbors for years, and their expansionist aggression spreading, the US War Department had intercepted and decoded secret cables between Tokyo and the Japanese Embassy in Washington. They believe initally the Japanese would attack Hawaii on Sunday, Nov. 30. A Hawaii newspaper even warned, in blaring headlines, of a possible attack.
