This is a conspiracy theory. Even if you are pro-palestine, do not fall for it.
it's not unheard of if you consider that Pearl Harbor was used to bring the USA into WWII and it's been only recently understood the US government knew it was going to happen but needed the loss to act.
I can't believe Roosevelt and the Joint Chiefs of Staff just said, "Fuck it. Let 'em sink the entire 7th fleet, almost our entire Pacific Force."
If there had been such a conspiracy, I'm guessing they would have accidentally "ambushed" Yamamoto after letting him raise a little hell.
they knew that Japan was reaching too far and would lose more in attacking then they would gain. The distance to the nearest Japanese port was extreme. The US would be able to counter attack before they could resupply
