Never understood why the attack on pearl harbour is a matter of "infamy" it was a strike against a legitimate military target. There's nothing "infamous" about it. It's just warfare. If one wanted to talk about infamous acts committed by the empire of japan, then Unit 731 and the sexual slavery should be the top ranking acts of infamy. Pearl harbour was just a battle, nothing more.

@oalf4869 : No one said that Japan is innocent. What we're saying is that the U.S is not some "innocent victim" because of the attack on pearl harbour. It's a bit rich when a country like the U.S chastise others for "fighting wars of aggression" and "being disruptive to peace".

@nickolaso1119 : There is nothing "unprovoked" about it. Cutting off a country embroiled in a war from their supply of oil is an act of war in itself. The U.S had it coming. And as to the matter of "declaring war". It's war we're talking about. No civilization in history ever needed to "declare" their intention to go to war against another. Such formalities are both trivial and nonsensical when talking about war (the very state where all forms of civility and law gets replacef with mass scale destruction and murder until one side cries uncle). Like I said: Pearl harbour was a legitimate military target. There was nothing "infamous" about attacking it. Americans are just pissed because they weren't given "proper time" to mount a defence. Yet conpletely disregard the fact that it was hardly within the rational self interest to let them prepare. The U.S got caught with their pants down, and Americans whine and moralfag about it. That's it really.

The film bombed because american reviewers can't stand content where there's no sucking up to american patriotism.

@oalf4869 : Cause americans never raped their way across any continent right? Well, except for the continent they would claim as their own that is. The native americans probably would agree.
