Default “Tora, Tora, Tora.” The story of the man that led the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941

http://www.wnd.com/2015/09/what-beca...harbor-attack/

Quote:
Imperial Japan had one of the largest maritime empires in world history.
In 1910, Imperial Japan annexed Korea, and in 1918 took control of Russian ports in Siberia


  • In 1937, Imperial Japan’s Army killed an estimated 200,000 in Nanking, China
  • In 1941, over 3,000 Americans died when Imperial Japan attacked Pearl Harbor
  • In 1942, over 20,000 Americans and Filipinos died on Bataan’s Death March, where starving prisoners were marched 65 miles in heat and jungles to a disease-infested camp
  • By 1945, over 100,000 died retaking Okinawa and Pacific islands

Similar to jihad suicide-bombers, kamikaze suicide-pilots were indoctrinated with a samurai code that it was more honorable to die killing the enemy than to shamefully surrender or be captured. About 3,860 kamikaze pilots met their deaths hitting more than 400 Allied ships.
Click on the link ... the story is a shocker to many

PS
Emperor Hirohito’s Imperial forces officially surrendered aboard the U.S.S. Missouri, anchored in Tokyo Bay, on Sept. 2, 1945.
