WWII Declassified Documents Reveal Truth about Pearl Harbor Attack

Washington, D.C. – Recently declassified documents obtained this week by The Vitamin Press reveal the truth behind the success of the December 7, 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor by the Empire of Japan. These documents reveal thoughts and perspectives of military commanders prior to the attack which many will find surprising. Many conspiracy theories concerning prior warnings or knowledge of attacks are shown, in these documents, to contain an element of truth. These documents reveal the U.S. intelligence community had intercepted transmissions and correspondence indicating that Japan was planning a surprise attack on the U.S. Naval Base at Pearl Harbor. However, the circumstances surrounding the lack of U.S. response to this intelligence is what many will find surprising.
The Edge of a Flat Earth
Before the attack on Pearl Harbor, U.S. military commanders were confident that a vital piece of intelligence was unknown to the international community. Without knowledge of this intelligence, any supposed threats of a Japanese attack would seem implausible. The intelligence was simply that the Earth is a spheroid, and not flat. Without an understanding of the Earth as being a spheroid, commonly printed maps showed Japan on the far eastern side of the map and the United States on the far western side. Therefore, U.S. military officials believed Japanese naval ships would be forced to attempt to sneak around the Cape of Good Hope on southern Africa. For this reason, military officials scoffed at any rumors of a planned Japanese attack and simply increased surveillance around the southern tip of Africa.

However, as history shows, military commanders were gravely mistaken. The truth of the Earth being a spheroid was widely known by the international community, allowing the Japanese fleet to easily traverse the Pacific Ocean where six aircraft carriers launched 353 aircrafts which then devastated the U.S. Naval base at Pearl Harbor. Shortly thereafter, the Japanese Embassy in Washington, D.C. delivered a declaration of war to the United States. With word of the attack on Pearl Harbor, the Japanese threats were taken far more seriously, the United States declared war on Japan and entered the Pacific theatre of what came to be known as World War II.

Great story. It really brought back memories. You see, I was on the Big Island when the Japaneses attacked. I remember it like it was yesterday. It was a moonless night, and my girlfriend and I were stargazing on the top of Mount Meagunalikamamacoochie. All of a sudden, out of the north, we saw dozens of Japanese blimps moving in. We could tell they were Japanese because they had the FujiFilm logo on their sides. What a sight, ladies and gentlemen, what a sight. They seemed to be circling the Navy base, now, I guess they were looking for a place to land. Then something just came out of the backs of the blimps. They were dark objects, maybe skydivers, plummeting to the Earth from only 2000 feet in the air. Then a second, then a third. No parachutes yet. They couldn’t be skydivers. I couldn’t tell yet what they were, but… OH MY GOD, THEY WERE TURKEYS!!! They were crashing to Earth right in front of our eyes. One went thru the windshield of a parked car. Everyone was running around pushing each other. Oh, the humanity. The turkeys were hitting the ground like sacks of wet cement.
