"More Light On Pearl Harbor" by Major General H. D. Russell, U.S. News & World Report, May 7, 1954

In the article, Russell refutes Rear Admiral Robert A. Theobald's accusations that President Roosevelt intentionally provoked Japan into attacking Pearl Harbor. Russell argues that Roosevelt consistently sought to avoid war, as evidenced by his diplomatic efforts that preceded the attack. He dismisses Theobald's claims as baseless and defends the actions of military officials involved.
