War Happened For Ignoring This 3 Person Warning

Ever feel sorry for doing bad things and be aware if you listen to previous warnings? Regret always comes later. And sometimes bad things up to lives float can cause long regret for years.

The second World War that had eaten millions of people, could have been avoided if he had listened to warnings and predictions before. The following three people had given predictions long before the war finally broke out. Who are they?

1. Billy Mitchell

His figure was so well known as General and father of the United States Air Force during the First World War. Mitchell includes a pioneer in the use of air force within the military to confront enemy fleets.

In 1925, he wrote the book Winged Defense that contains warnings, how weak the American Navy. Mitchell even predicted that Japan could launch an air raid on one of the US military bases in the Pacific, Hawaii.

Unfortunately, at the same time he had to deal with a military court for criticizing his superiors. As a result, no one heed the warnings he has written. As we know, Mitchell's concern was evident when the Japanese bombarded Pearl Harbor, Hawaii as one of the founders of American involvement in World War II.

2. Ferdinand Foch

Who is he? A French soldier as well as a hero of World War I. After the war ended with the signing of the Treaty of Versailles in 1919, Foch felt the agreement did not promise security for France. He sees, this is only to weaken the German position on one side.

Remarkably, he can predict precisely when he says, "This is not peace, it's only a truce for 20 years." As historically recorded, in 1939 - exactly 20 years 26 days after the Treaty of Versailles, World War II erupted.

Ironically, his warning was ignored by the most influential people, President Woodrow Wilson and Prime Minister David George. They think Foch is too worried. The president believes that Germany will keep their honor to abide by the agreement that has been made.

3. Isoroku Yamamoto

Yamamoto may be the most unique figure. He actually became the mastermind of the Japanese air force attack to the American fleet in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. In fact, from the beginning he already knew that the attack will not affect much for Japan to cripple the power of the United States.

Yamamoto expressed his opinion, indeed after the attack to Hawaii and then proceed to several areas in the Pacific will give a victory for Japan for one year. But after that the troop strength of the shogun will decrease. The reason, the cost that Japan needed to win the war was too expensive.

Yet no one listened to Yamamoto's predictions. The reason is simple, because all the Japanese society at that time was burned by a spirit of high nationalism. People look at Yamamoto's thoughts as showing his weakness as a leader.
