The Real Connection of Pearl Harbor to September 11, 2001: Another 3/11 & 9/11


Many people have been taught that the United States joined World War II after Japan bombed the Navy Base at Pearl Harbor, stationed in Hawaii, on December 7, 1941.  These same people would be surprised that a more accurate date for when the United States joined World War II, came as much as seven months earlier, when the United States passed the Lend-Lease Act.  This act, passed on March 11, 1941, stated the United States would supply Britain, the Soviet Union, and China with military supplies and assistance in World War II.  It also deployed U.S. military forces in Iceland, replacing the British troops that were previously stationed there.

Further, on September 11, 1941, FDR ordered the United States Navy to attack and destroy any Axis ships encountered in world oceans.  This order by FDR, prompted a speech by Presidential hopeful Charles Lindbergh, coined the Des Moines Speech, in which he famously urged the country to help keep the United States from participating in World War II.  It should also be noted, construction of the Pentagon began on this same date.  It would be attacked exactly 60 years to the day.

In your opinion, wouldn't you say the United States was participating in World War II based on the fact that they were supplying their allies with resources, deploying troops to strategic locations in order to assist the British, and attacking Axis Navy vessels, as much as seven months before the attack by Japan on Pearl Harbor?  In hindsight, it almost seems surprising that it took until December 7 for the Axis powers to respond to the United States involvement in the war.  Of course, after Pearl Harbor, the United States became significantly more involved, but the dates of March 11 and September 11, could easily be argued as the real entering points for the United States in what would become the most deadly war of all-time.

As for the dates March 11, September 11, and the World Trade Center Complex, please observe the followings facts:
  • March 11, 1961, the WTC complex was first approved by New York's Port Authority
  • September 11, 2001, the WTC complex would be destroyed
  • March 11, 2002, the Tribute to Light would shine for 33 nights exactly
  • The distance between the February 26, 1993 attack on the WTC and the September 11 attacks was exactly 3119 days.  Within that number, you can extract the date 3/11 and 11/9, which could represent March 11 and September 11 respectively.
  • Exactly 911 days after the WTC attacks, the March 11, 2004 Madrid Train Bombings would occur
Of course, the September 11 attacks have engaged the world in one of the most costly and deadly wars of all-time, the global war on terrorism.  You could also say, the September 11 involvement of the United States in World War II, secured its further involvement in what would become the most costly war for the United States to date, in terms of U.S. casualties.  Last, please see this earlier blog post, in which 3/11 and 9/11 symbolism is hidden within the latest James Bond movie, Skyfall.
