pearl harbor. we have all seen that film of president roosevelt standing in the wells of the united states on december 8th, 1941, saying saying that december 7th, 1941, is a date that would live in infamy because of japan's surprise attack on the us naval base at pearl harbor. there is no evidence that president roosevelt or his cabinet knew in advance specifically that japan would attack pearl harbor but they should not have been surprised that japan would attack the united states. in november of 1941 only a few weeks before pearl harbor, joseph grew spent two telegrams, secretary of state, warning him that japan was prepared to launch a suicidal war against the united states and that armed conflict would come with dangerous and dramatic suddenness. who was joseph grew and how did he know that? in november of 1941 joseph grew was 61 years old, tall, lean, bushy eyebrows, full mustache, he had been an american diplomat for almost 40 years and he had been america's ambassador to japan -- can you hea

pearl harbor." this is a very complicated. in a very complicated story about how president roosevelt was trying to navigate this transition from america being an isolationist neutral country when he you want to get into ts war but he didn't really want to get into the war with japan because he wanted to get in the war with germany. but, of course, american policy was forcing a decision one way or another. you will hear a fantastic story. the book is "in the cauldron." there would be a book signing afterwards. please welcome lew paper.

that said, some 2400 people died at pearl harbor, 3,000 at 9/11. we're already close to 10,000 deaths and counting from the coronavirus in the united states. it's on a completely different scale, unprecedented scale. not to mention that with pearl harbor and 9/11, you're talking about attacks by other people, a foreign government and were somewhat less predictable. we've been warning about a pandemic of this scale for decade, quite literally. this is not something that could not have been anticipated. >> we could have taken the time to prepare for it. japanese aircraft carrier on november 7th instead of december 7th so that you could prepare for that month. >>> dr. moraga, i want to ask you about the peak. the idea we may see the peak in new york city sometime in the next seven to ten days. is that your predicted timeline, where you are in new jersey, and what does that mean exactly for your hospital? >> so, just looking at specific data from our own health system, starting the week of the 22nd of march to the 29th of march, we went from 600 case t

(music) [choir singing] >> the attack was part of a larger military plan to seize control of oil on the pacific rim. japan's goal was to destroy our ability to stand in their way. four days later, germany and italy were allied with japan and declared war on the united states. roosevelt had believed for some time that germany posed the greatest threat to america's long-term security. when hitler and mussolini sent there war machines against the united states, his concerns were proven justified and the need to respond was obvious. as the united states entered the war, the situation was gri

between the period that the europe goes to war and pearl harbor in december of 1947. when europe goes to war, americans want to stay out of that war and americans did not want to let in refugees. and fdr spends all of his political capital during this period, 39, 40, 41, trying to move from isolation to intervention. he does this with the choice to run for a third time, which is unpopular. but the american government does not spend any time trying to move public opinion on that refugee question. so this film looks at the presidential leadership, instituting the first peacetime draft in the u.s. history. for example, in the summer of 1940 running for a third time, trying to get americans to support the land lease bill to arm the allies, and ultimately moving us toward the brink of intervention by the time of 1941. >> this is the attack on pearl harbor on december 7th of 1941 that pulls us into war. and, what you see in this exhibition is one of our first responses to pearl harbor, to round up our own japanese american citizens and forcibly remove them from the west coa

daniel pearl was trying to find some of the people involved in the attacks of 9/11 in pakistan, and herible story at the time and still is. stefanie, your interest in europe, there was one particular eu country you wanted to mention. i am maybe staying a bit closer to home, it is a story that has been reported in the uk and europe but i think it's an interesting story on a wider scale. on monday this week, the hungarian parliament with a two thirds majority allowed viktor 0rban from now on to rule by decree, this without any time limit. this is something we have seen, especially in hungary, but also in poland, that these countries tend to really undermine the constitutional checks and balances of their countries, whether it be on the freedom of the press, also the independence of thejudiciary. we can really see that some governments now use the crisis to just simply for power grabs. on one hand, the question evolves from how well parliament, and therefore democracy, after the crisis get into the place it should be? on a wider scale, the question of civil liberties. if i look at germany
