Revilo P. Oliver; “The Final Secret of Pearl Harbor” (Liberty Bell; July 1989):
“American aviators would be released from the Army, Navy, and Marine air corps to be hired as mercenaries through the Intercontinent Corporation, … which would hire them ‘under contract with the Chinese government’ …. Japan would thus be unable to prove that the Roosevelt government’s pretense of neutrality … was odious hypocrisy….
“The plan for the sneaking attack on Japan … [was one] that Roosevelt obviously had authorized no later than 15 April 1941, eight months before Pearl Harbor…. The bombers would use incendiary bombs to devastate Japanese cities and fry Japanese civilians….
“Only difficulty and delay in diverting weapons promised the British prevented the plan from being carried out on schedule and enabled Japan to get in the first blow….”
Revilo P. Oliver (“The Yellow Peril”):
“Japan was not really ‘opened’ to foreign commerce until after a British fleet had bombarded the city of Kagoshima and reduced it to rubble, and another British fleet, with a few American, French, and Dutch vessels added to make it seem international, levelled Shimonoseki in 1864….”
