Seeker of Truth: It was the deliberate policy of the New Dealers to enter the war by provoking the Japanese to attack because the Congress would not allow it otherwise. Read Cordell Hull's memoirs, Hull being FDR's Secretary of State who spent the Summer and Fall of 1941 cloistered with the Japanese in negoiations). Read Winston Churchill's "Finest Hour" and "Gathering Storm".

In all the very many post Pear Harbour investigations conducted by FDR's senatorial and congressional enemies, including the trials of Admiral Kemmal and General Short it was accepted and openly admitted by numerous New Deal insiders from the dock that there was intentional provocations. That is not what the inquistiors were looking for, that was a given and openly addmitted. What they were trying to find was evidence of advance knowldge of the attack, which was treason.

As for Korea, after four terms of the New Deal there were so many communists in the State Department that communist partisans were being supported in every war zone. Truman quickly fired the leading communists he inherited from Dr. Roosevelt (Harry Hopkins, Harlold Ickes, Henry Wallace and others) but down in the ranks they still numbered in the thousands and it was these people, junior state department bureaucrats of the Alger Hiss and John Service type who made sure that Korea went communist and that every support was lent to Mao and others communists. Later in the 1940's HUAC hearings sent many of the remaining New Deal communists to jail and a few to the electric chair but the damage had already been done.
