On December 8, 1941, the day after Pearl Harbor was attacked, Republican Congressman (R-N.Y.) Hamilton Fish made his maiden speech to the U.S. Congress. In it, he asked for the United States Declaration of War against Japan. Of the speech, he was later to say: ‘I am ashamed of that speech today, as I know now about President Roosevelt’s infamous war ultimatum that forced Japan’s leaders to fight.’ Fish also said, ‘Roosevelt’s ‘day of infamy’ has been turned into hypocrisy, deceit and ashes by the searchlight of truth on the causes, events and results of the war.’ The Republican Congressman went on to say: ‘Roosevelt was the main instigator and firebrand to light the fuse of war.’ https://europerenaissance.com/2021/06/04/pearl-harbour-think-9-11-and-other-black-flags-to-lure-a-war
