    BTT Questions:
    1) Why did the radar guy think that the unidentified planes were B17’s when they were “unidentified”?
    2) Would there have been a third wave?
    3) Did this embolden the Axis countries in Europe?

    Beyond-The-Text Questions
    1. Shouldn’t one wave of aircrafts be enough to take out the navy base?
    2. If the guy didn’t ignore their call, would’ve the navy base been saved and rescued from the Japenese bombers?
    3. What/Who caused the Japanese bombers to make a plan to bomb the navy base in the first place?

    1. Image we were the one who is attacking Japan, will pearl harbor be attack by the Japaneses?

    2. Japaneses attacking pearl harbor is a good thing for the USA or a bad thing for the USA?

    3. why is Japaneses so dumb to attack the navy base if USA will declare war the next day?

    Answering my question.

    1. If we were the one who attack Japan they be declaring war with the USA and will destroy pearl harbor and including some part of USA because they don’t want to be the fool out of them self that the USA attack and wont to anything.

    2. The attack of Japaneses could be a good thing or a bad thing because the good thing is that we will declare war with the Japaneses making us join WWII to help our allies to win the war and the bad thing is that people in pearl harbor had nothing to do with the Japaneses and Oahu is not a USA

    3. The Japaneses attack the navy base because that where USA transport and trade item to other country and USA embargo with Japan so the Japaneses is thinking like if USA is not trading with us why should we let the USA to trade with other country so we should destroy it.
