We do do we? and the proof of that is where????We all know the pilots had their throats slashed.
So what is this all about then?So as it stands to this day, Adm. Kimmel and Gen. Short bear the bulk of the responisibility for being unprepared.
SENATOR THURMOND: I just want to say that once I was a Judge, highest Trial Court in South Carolina, a Circuit Judge, and my goal was to render justice. And that ought to be the goal of everyone, I think, in any position is to see that justice is done. Seek the truth and render justice whether people like it or not. That's the logical, honest thing to do.
Now I'll make a statement and that will close it. Despite the various views on what we have discussed, I believe all concerned will agree on one point. If the issue surrounding Admiral Kimmel and General Short was not important, so many prominent citizens, writers, historians, and senior military officials would not have made efforts to comment about the differences surrounding this matter. There is reason to closely examine any issue where such strong convictions by so many prominent and responsible individuals possess. This controversy has importance and deserves resolution. It is my experience that issues having such controversy cannot be ignored. They only worsen over time. Therefore, I believe the matter concerning Admiral Kimmel and General Short should be fairly resolved.
Let me express my appreciation for the attendance of those from the Department of Defense, the Kimmel family, the distinguished military officers, and the capable writers and historians. We appreciate all of you being here. We thank you for your contribution and may honesty and fairness prevail with this matter, pure, downright honesty. What is honest? What is justice? That's all we've got to do and nobody can condemn anyone if they make a judgment that's based on honesty and justice and that's all we ask can be done here. I thank all of you for coming and thank you very much for your contribution.
(Meeting adjourned.)

Even all those hearings do nothing to clue you in to the fact that Governments must be kept under close watch, unfortunately that is very believable that anything they say is swallowed hook, line and sinker.
In the meantime Grandfather Bush is funneling money to the Nazis. Your country rewards criminals and crucifies loyalists.
