What I am learning about in History

Currently, what I am learning about in History is World War II. To be precise, the U.S.'s entry into World War II. I mean really. Japan, when they were bombing pearl harbor, deliberately left unharmed the oil storage and ship repair docks on pearl harbor. In other words, they left all of the things the U.S. needed to rebuild their navy unharmed, even though Japan was bombing the U.S. precisely because they wanted the U.S. out of the pacific. All they really did was make the U.S. really, really mad. After that point, every able-bodied man in the country was ready to enlist. It was a big mistake on Japan's part.
