About Pearl Harbour: Conspiracy Theory? Page 2

MontyB · June 26th, 2005

I have trouble with the conspiracy theory simply because there was nothing to be gained by not doing anything about it and a lot to be lost.

Just knowing about the attack was grounds in itself for war so I doubt FDR would have simply sat back and done nothing with this information, at the very least the naval base would have been emptied and/or a counter strike prepared against the Japanese taskforce in the event of an attack.

We have gone thru this before, I don't understand why this is still around.
Anyways American English has a status of its own with all its differences from Standard English.
So does Canadian English.
On the other hand UK Australian English itself isnot exactlythe same as spoken in the UK.

Sadly kids here in britain are starting to sound american due to all the american tv shows. Felt like slapping a little kid who was saying mom not mum.
Ass and Butt are both american terms, not normally used in britain though due to tv they have begun to be used. Never heard of a Jenny ass.
