This is made clear in the Admiral's diaries, and also by the later recollections of Emperor Hirohito, who had been decieved by certain members of his War Cabinet, notably Gen. Tojo, to believe that such an invasion was possible.
Once again, state your source, as I have stated mine. Simply saying "I'm right, you're wrong, so there!" doesn't cut it. You say you attended University; either you flunked out on account of routinely making fallacious arguements like this, or the state of the British University system s more degraded than I realized.
