>><before the whole world he even turned away the refugee Jews on the S.S. St. Louis>> I don't think that Roosevelt had the authority to allow them entry. Try thinking next time. FDR absolutely did have authority to offer asylum and has been condemned by thinking people ever since. >> <<You are quite wrong about the Navy>> No, I'm not. You can say that but you've proven otherwise better than anyone. <<many cite the evidence that most of the fleet was sent out of Pearl Harbor shortly before the attack.>> Who cites this? The meat of the fleet (or so it was believed) was at anchor; as I said neither side understood the importance of the carrier (and to greater extent the submarine) in the coming war; had they known, the Japanese would have bombed the submarine pens first (they PURPOSELY went after the BBs first). You should try reading some history on the subject. Most of what was important had been moved out to sea. That had to make it look somewhat believable. I believe much of that came out as a consequence of the commanding officer and his family fighting the obloquy that had been heaped upon him.
