......source?
Literally any history book, this is high-school level information. JFC
Japan declared war on the U.S. and the British Empire later that day (December 8 in Tokyo), but the declarations were not delivered until the next day
Literally every class I've ever taken, and every documentary I've ever seen has said it was a surprise attack.
Some documentaries suggest that the allies suspected an attack may be coming at some point, but they didn't "know".
So, no. Not literally every history book shows this as a pre-agreed upon attack.
Maybe not in American history books but any other history books, yes.
I don't even believe the 'late' part
