minus-squareChickenLadyLovesLife@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·6 minutes agoFalse. Hawaii wasn’t a state in 1941 and Pearl Harbor wasn’t an invasion anyway. Wake Island would be a better example since it was actually invaded, but it was also a claimed territory and not a state. Assassinations are not “invasions”.
