Start’s charity fund raising to pay for the shipping of a couple of slabs of Little Creature’s Bright Ale to Cal so this type of thing doesn’t happen again.

The Japanese declaration of war was intended to be delivered at 1pm Washington time, which was 30 minutes prior to the first attack on Pearl Harbour was meant to take place. As it happened, the Pearl Harbour attack was running behind schedule, which should have given the Japanese Ambassador even more time. Unfortunately the Ambassador didn’t trust a clerk to decrypt the coded message from Tokyo and type it up and chose to type it himself, and he was a very slow two finger typist and everything went pair shaped at the embassy.
The attack on the Philippine Islands was delayed by weather for several hours. The attacks on Malaya took place before the declaration of war was scheduled to be given to the Americans
Again, that wasn't the declaration of war, but the 14 part message ending negotiations. As the text shows, it was no declaration of war.
Nope. That wasn't a declaration of war. It was a statement something on the order of 'not our fault if unpleasant things start to happen'. Still, it would have been SOME sort of warning, and not the 'attack with no warning'.The Japanese declaration of war was intended to be delivered at 1pm Washington time, which was 30 minutes prior to the first attack on Pearl Harbour was meant to take place.
