It's a good analogy (from my limited understanding, that really was how it was presented in Japan at the time.. At least for a short while) but I dang hope it's not an accurate one. The blunder of Pearl Harbor was eloquently put by this famous quote:
So the key question now is whether Iran was a sleeping giant with more resources to pull from, or if it's really defeated now (or soon to be). I personally believe Iran can't win a war against USA, but it's not going down without a fight. I'm no authority on the matter though, I might be dead wrong.
Narrator: But they weren't a sleeping giant. However, Gob's Chicken Dance had, in fact, filled them with more resolve than even they had expected.
Hirohito: I've made a huge mistake
Boomhauer: Dang ol' messed up man
