This one was moderately good, but no shadow on cub. But if I spotted it, it was probably the story. Do these things happen, why is the Elephant holding the cub? Why aren't they attacking each other?

Does Snopes actually support the idea that Pearl Harbor was an inside job?

I've noticed they could nitpick certain Facts to disprove, this might make some people assume the whole story is true or false. Or might give a true rating to a specific detail of one event that they are for and give a false rating to a specific detail of an event that they are against.
Unproven: During the Japanese Raid on Pearl Harbor, a radar operator had to walk half a mile down the road to a gas station to call in the report of the radar detection of the invading force.
False: Josh Hartnett or Ben Affleck were not present during the attack at Pearl Harbor on December 7th, 1941.
Truth: A radio operator did spot the invading force before the attack happened, but it is unknown according to Wikipedia if that was the radio operator that did not have a phone on site. The attack on Pearl Harbor was on December 7th, 1941, the main male actors in the Pearl Harbor movie by Michael Bay were not born until the 1970's.
Edit: Addition: Also, any link to a fact checking website is going to assumed the the link disproves the person making a fact. Or if linked by the person the assumption is it supports their story.

Heard an owl hooting a few nights ago. Maybe it was liking the snow.
