[QUOTE="SoonerP226, post: 4215324, member: 26737"] Well, the other part of this is that the declaration of war was already in transit, and the Japanese wouldn't have had a way to know that their attack failed in time to stop it. As I recall, we had intercepted and decided their declaration before they did, so I don't think it would be difficult to show that sinking their carrier force happened while they were at war with us. Of course, would stopping a sneak attack have gotten Americans as riled up as a successful sneak attack did? [/QUOTE]
