This Book is an excerpt from a book arguing that President Franklin D. Roosevelt deliberately provoked Japan into attacking Pearl Harbor to bring the United States into World War II. The author supports this claim using declassified documents obtained via the Freedom of Information Act, detailing intercepted Japanese communications and alleged US government actions designed to escalate tensions. The book names key military and political figures involved and examines the flow of intelligence information before the attack, highlighting instances of alleged withholding of crucial information from military commanders in Hawaii. The author contends that Roosevelt's actions, despite the resulting loss of life, served a strategic purpose of uniting the American public behind the war effort. Numerous primary source documents and interviews are cited to support the book's central argument.You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms:https://linktr.ee/book_shelterGet the Book now from Amazon:https://www.amazon.com/Day-Deceit-Publisher-Press-Touchstone/dp/B004VW3SQQ?&linkCode=ll1&tag=cvthunderx-20&linkId=499729c10152045c95a76204770b4c1e&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tlProduced by:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
