QUOTE (Mitsuo Fuchida) – April 14
April 14, 2014“I would give anything to retract my actions at Pearl Harbor, but it is impossible. Instead, I now work at striking the death blow to the basic hatred which infests the human heart and causes such tragedies. And that hatred cannot be uprooted without Jesus Christ … he is the only answer.”
~ Mitsuo Fuchida
In honor of Mitsuo Fuchida, the lead pilot of the December 7, 1941, raid on Pearl Harbor who shouted the war cry, “Tora, Tora, Tora!”. He became a Christian on this day in 1950.

Actually, he came to know the Lord in September, 1949. I just released his story after nine years of research and work on both the screenplay of his life and now the novel. This may seem like a crass plug, but I think all here would be interested in the complete, true story, endorsed by Ravi Zacharias and many others. More here: http://www.WoundedTiger.com
