British Spies Aided The Attack On Pearl Harbor Bbc Program.

[kerryk]

One was Lord Semphill. In 1941 he reported on discussions between Roosevelt and Churchill which showed much of the American fleet was deployed in the Atlantic and could not respond to an attack on Pearl Harbor. Despite knowledge of his treachery becoming known, the British took no action against him beyond a demotion.

The other spy was Frederick Rutland who also helped to develop the Japanese carrier fleet. Later he moved to Hawaii where he worked for US military companies whose secrets he sent to Tokyo. In 1941 he sent photographs of Pearl Harbor to Japan. He was detained during the war but never prosecuted.

Anti-British rhetoric....so guess the Brit bashers will be along shortly...

Pearl Habour was "engineered" by both Roosevelt and Churchill as to give the US a legitimate means of entering the war, hence the reason no-one was prosecuted...

No different from what Bush did in using 9/11 as a vehicle to invade Iraq....

Actually you would be surprised, it's now full of politically correct anti-establishment types who relish any oppurtunity to pour scorn on our past.
