Does this indicate a shot fired from the front!Suppose Kennedy had leaned forward (or back) at just the right moment?

There weren't any Kamikaze pilots at Pearl Harbour. They came much later when the Japanese were defending their Home Islands.Without the kami-kaze pilots flying with just enough fuel to get to Pearl Harbour, would the Americans have entered WWII when they did?
This.Life is random not matter how organised we try to make it.
Randomness can be found wherever we look providing that we are open minded.
you could attribute many military victories to an element of randomness - it is that which makes the story.
Trafalgar - a hollow victory that meant nothing, tactically or historically (really). there was no need for the French fleet to sail, but Admiral Villeneuve found out he was to be fired and figured it couldn't be done if he was at sea, so they set sail straight into Nelson's waiting fleet.
Waterloo - there are many incidents that could have turned the battle
El Alamein - it could easily have gone very wrong as the allies tried to cross the minefields, but it worked out and was a pivotal point in the war.
WW1 - the assassination of an Arch-Duke that led to millions dying. the treaties signed by the countries involved forced them to act and the whole thing snowballed.
Battle of Britain - the bombing of London instead of the airfields gave the RAF time to recover and turned the battle.
interesting part of Napoleonc history is that has choices for military schools were the French Artillary or the British Navy. how history would have been turned on its head had he gone to the latter.
You are right green: Without the Japanese bombing the American ships at Pearl Harbour, would the Americans have entered WWII when they did?There weren't any Kamikaze pilots at Pearl Harbour. They came much later when the Japanese were defending their Home Islands.
