Pearl Harbor Day: One For Which FDR Shoulders ‘Infamy’
by Tyler Durden
Fri, 12/07/2018 – 21:45
Authored by Daniel Oliver, op-ed via The Daily Caller,
*** begin quote ***
On December 7, 1941 the Empire of Japan bombed the U.S. Pacific Fleet which was stationed in Pearl Harbor on the Hawaiian island of Oahu. In addressing Congress the next day, President Roosevelt called it “a date which will live in infamy.”
But Roosevelt’s reputation should live in infamy too. The line that Roosevelt enthusiasts and left-wing historians have peddled for so many years is that the attack was a complete surprise.
Here’s a sample from The American Pageant, a typical left-wing American history textbook widely used in American high schools:
Officials in Washington, having “cracked” the top-secret code of the Japanese, knew that Tokyo’s decision was for war … Roosevelt, misled by Japanese ship movements in the Far East, evidently expected the blow to fall on British Malaya or on the Philippines. No one in high authority in Washington seems to have believed that the Japanese were either strong enough or foolhardy enough to strike Hawaii.
That’s the left’s version, and it’s in line with the rest of the “fake history” they want American high school students to learn. The Education and Research Institute (ERI — of which I am chairman) has written a critique of The American Pageant, which tells a more accurate story about Pearl Harbor and scores of other events in American history.
The American Pageant gives almost no blame to FDR for the Pearl Harbor disaster — even though the United States had broken the Japanese secret code and knew an attack was imminent. The textbook authors assure us that “no one in high authority in Washington seems to have believed that the Japanese” had the ability to launch such an attack.
But that is simply wrong. Some high-ranking members of the U.S. Navy did believe a surprise attack at Pearl Harbor was possible, but FDR disagreed with them and he removed those contrary voices from positions of power.
The commander of the U.S. Pacific Fleet in Pearl Harbor was Admiral J. O. (Joe) Richardson. Unlike Roosevelt, Richardson did not underestimate the Japanese — and he had studied them and the dangerous Pearl Harbor location thoroughly.
Richardson said that a simulated aerial attack that the U.S. had conducted at Pearl Harbor in 1932 proved that torpedo planes could cripple any fleet stationed there.
Even before Roosevelt ordered the Pacific Fleet to stay at Pearl Harbor indefinitely, Richardson had protested that keeping the fleet there posed a danger to every ship. He had been attempting to monitor the military movements of the Japanese to give the United States time to evacuate Pearl Harbor in case of danger
*** end quote ***
My Uncles always believed that FDR was responsible for Pearl Harbor. And NOT in the sense of, “the buck stops here”! They knew from the (real; not fake news) that military decisions were made at the White House. (One of them worked for decades in the Navy Department.)
FDR needed to end the Great Depression that was caused by the politicians and bureaucrats messing with the economy. What better way to ensure prosperity than by a war that would never come to America.
Argh!
“We, The Sheeple” don’t recognize the politicians and bureaucrats as “war criminals” and traitors to the civil society.
How many more people have to die before this “terrible genie” of Gooferment is put back in Pandora’s box?
Time for another revolution?

Pro-war propaganda
Tom Woods
*** begin quote ***
Pro-war propaganda.
A fellow I do a fair amount of business with posted on social media today that this is not a day for “antiwar propaganda.”
Nonsense.
Veterans’ Day was originally Armistice Day, in commemoration of the cessation of hostilities in World War I. The armistice was signed in the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month, in 1918.
For four years, Europe tore itself apart, and sent millions of men into a meat grinder for no good reason. Tens of thousands would die, and the front would move a matter of yards.
Especially on this hundredth anniversary of the original Armistice Day, how does anyone seriously expect to honor the fallen without any discussion of the madmen who sent them into this horror?
Did their deaths occur in some abstract realm, outside time, space, and causation?
Or were they killed in specific ways, under orders from particular people?
Anyone speaking in mere platitudes today is an enemy of mankind.
The left-liberals and neoconservatives alike, who always seem to put aside their pretend differences when an idiotic war is in the offing, and who make saccharine speeches about democracy and openness and peace, are enemies of mankind.
As a reminder of how deranged our cultural elite and political establishment are, how many major political figures of the past hundred years have been dismissed from polite society for urging too much war?
There are lots of things that get you demonized and ostracized in America, but that ain’t one of them.
Usually it gets you called a “statesman.”
This is deranged.
Especially on Veterans Day should we speak out against war and the lying propagandists who foment them.
And the state cheerleaders who make excuses for them. (Why, Saddam really did have WMDs! etc.)
Especially culpable are the so-called conservatives who claim to distrust government propaganda — and yes, they’re indeed very sound on the milk subsidies question — but who can’t ape that Pentagon press release fast enough.
To hell with all of them.
*** end quote ***
The best way to “celebrate” Veterans’ Day is DEMAND that “we” stop creating so many of then, and “wasting” their lives, IMMEDIATELY.
Never met a vet who disagreed.

Was There Another Reason For Electricity Shutdowns In California?
Authored by Richard Trzupek via The Epoch Times,
*** begin quote ***
According to the official, widely reported story, Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E) shut down substantial portions of its electric transmission system in northern California as a precautionary measure.
Citing high wind speeds they described as “historic,” the utility claims that if they didn’t turn off the grid, wind-caused damage to their infrastructure could start more wildfires in the area.
Perhaps that’s true. Perhaps. This tale presumes that the folks who designed and maintain PG&E’s transmission system are unaware of or ignored the need to design it to withstand severe weather events, and that the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) and North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) allowed the utility to do so.
Ignorance and incompetence happens, to be sure, but there’s much about this story that doesn’t smell right—and it’s disappointing that most journalists and elected officials are apparently accepting it without question.
*** end quote ***
Here’s an interesting theory as to why PG&E has to cut power to Customers.
Of course, there’s no way for Joe-Sixpack to know if this is true, but it’s an “interesting question”.
I’d bet there’s some truth to it.

California’s Prop 47 leads to rise in shoplifting, thefts, criminal activity across state
By Barnini Chakraborty | Fox News
*** begin quote ***
California is one of a handful of states that doesn’t hand out plastic shopping bags. To get one, the purchaser has to pay an additional dime. Residents looking to save ten cents and spare the environment typically put merchandise in a purse, backpack or have it in their hand when they walk out, an unintended consequence of which is shoplifters can easily “fit in and walk out” with the paying crowd.
“It’s nuts,” Michelin said. “Stores are going to be forced to lock up all their merchandise.”

On October 12, I had a mitral valve repair.
https://medlineplus.gov/ency/article/007411.htm
It was minimally invasive and no problems were expected.
Unfortunately, the anesthetic impacted my prostate and it shut the urinary tube. A catheterization solved that problem.
Apparently, the drugs prescribed to allow my recovery sent my bp and pulse into highs and lows. Changing them around — eliminate some, change others — seemed to get me back level.
Recovery took longer than I expected and wasn’t as easy as I anticipated.
But, I think I’m back to where I was before I was “fixed”.

That redefinition of morality was a product of World War II, which included such barbarities as Germany’s systematic murder of six million Jews and Japan’s rape of Nanking. While the worst atrocities were perpetrated by the Axis, all the major nation-states sliced away at the moral code — often to the applause of their leaders and citizens alike. By 1945 there were few moral restraints left in what had become virtually a total war. Even F.D.R.’s prewar concern for sparing enemy civilians had fallen by the wayside. In that new moral climate, any nation that had the A-bomb would probably have used it against enemy peoples. British leaders as well as Joseph Stalin endorsed the act. Germany’s and Japan’s leaders surely would have used it against cities. America was not morally unique — just technologically exceptional. Only it had the bomb, and so only it used it.

The Examiner’s report raises further questions about the so-called “whistleblower” and his complaint, which alleges President Donald Trump pressured Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to investigate allegations of corruption against former Vice President and 2020 White House hopeful Joe Biden and his son, Hunter Biden. In an August 26th letter, Atkinson said the officer was found to have harbored “political bias” in favor of a rival political candidate to President Trump. York’s report contradicts a claim by CNN anchor Jake Tapper, who stated last week that the so-called “whistleblower’s” political bias was that he was a “registered Democrat.”

The dramatic thrust about 9/11 that is always the undercurrent of the mainstream narrative goes as follows: “Middle Eastern highjackers piloted American planes with American passengers into American buildings, killing thousands of Americans, so let’s make them pay!” As a support for this narrative, however, the destruction of Building 7 a full 7 hours later is at best anticlimactic. In fact, a closer examination of the evidence surrounding Building 7 begins to erode the entire narrative, and start us questioning whether the whole scene really played out the way we are being told.
If, as seems to be a growing consensus now, that all 3 buildings had been prepared for controlled demolitions in order to advance the narrative above, then perhaps Building 7, too, was meant to be hit by a plane. As it turns out, its demolition 7 hours later appears to have been damage control for a part of the plan that went wrong. By that time, word was getting out on the ground that Building 7 was going to be taken down. Reports came to journalists and other onlookers from law enforcement officers, the fire department and others that the building was going to be taken down, and that people should leave the area.
The video below provides compelling testimony of this, since it is from a collection of people who were there as it was happening, and with no particular agenda other than to say what they were told, what they heard, or what they saw.

All that is necessary is to ask the question.
If this upsets, some people so be it.
If this is true, then it becomes the biggest hit on Gooferment propaganda since Pearl Harbor. (Referring to FDR engineering the Japanese attack to get out of the Great Depression.)
While this story is not imho “proven” yet, it certainly is more open and honest that the NIST report or other Gooferment “pronouncements” on the whole 911 disaster. NIST never shared its data or models for “security” reasons. That’s what the Gooferment always says.
Remember that the CIA created the phrase “Conspiracy Theories” to discredit any disagreement with the “official story”.
In my opinion, from my brain square in my tin foil hat, a Conspiracy Theorist merely needs to assert “inconvenient facts”, ask questions, or put “small holes” in the Gooferment propaganda balloon to have default credibility. They may be wrong. They may have been wrong on other topics in the past. BUT, (and there is always a BIG butt), they deserve a “fair hearing”; not dismissal out of hand.
If there is a “conspiracy”, it’s from the “Deep State” and / or “the rich elite”. So, “We, The Sheeple” need to suspect everything they are EVER told by Gooferment politicians or bureaucrats.
As I said in my recent vaccine post, where the NY DOH bureaucrat swears that vaccines are same, I point to my personal “EXHIBIT #1” of Christie Todd Wittman, the head of the EPA, assuring us that the air around the 911 site was safe to breathe. Argh! TO quote a famous TV jurist, “I wouldn’t believe you, if your tongue came notarized.” … attributed to Judge Marilyn Milian, but may have an earlier history.
YMMV, but I think the Gooferment “explanation” of 911/7WTC is suspect at best.

“Judicial Watch just caught the State Department and DOJ red-handed in another email cover-up – they all knew about the Clinton email account but covered up the smoking-gun email showing this guilty knowledge for years,” stated Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton.
The scope of court-ordered discovery that produces this email find includes: whether Secretary Clinton used private email in an effort to evade the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA); whether the State Department’s attempt to settle this FOIA case in 2014 and 2015 amounted to bad faith; and whether the State Department has adequately searched for records responsive to Judicial Watch’s FOIA request.
During a recent hearing, Judge Lamberth specifically raised concerns about a Clinton email cache, carterheavyindustries@gmail.com, discussed in a letter to Senator Charles Grassley (R-IA) and wants Judicial Watch to “shake this tree” on this issue.

Your certified letter dated 11/17/12 has been handed to me. I am the legal landowner but not the Contractor at 2088 Dagget Lane, Trout Run, Pennsylvania.A couple of beavers are in the process of constructing and maintaining two wood ‘debris’ dams across the outlet stream of my Spring Pond. While I did not pay for, authorize, nor supervise their dam project, I think they would be highly offended that you call their skillful use of natures building materials ‘debris.’I would like to challenge your department to attempt to emulate their dam project any time and/or any place you choose. I believe I can safely state there is no way you could ever match their dam skills, their dam resourcefulness, their dam ingenuity, their dam persistence, their dam determination and/or their dam work ethic.
