From America's point of view the Attack on Pearl Harbor...
From America's point of view, the Attack on Pearl Harbor was a great loss. We also saw it as a huge mistake, because if the patrol boats had reported the incoming ships and submarines they had seen, it would have given the Americans a chance to ready themselves and prepare for this attack. It might not have even happened if they had called it in. America saw this as a loss because off all the lives lost. Over 2,000 men died at Pearl Harbor and 8 very important battleships were sunk.
