General Bonner Fellers:
You know the Emperor well.
Prince Konoe:
As well as anyone can know His Majesty.
General Bonner Fellers:
Was he against the war?
Prince Konoe:
His Majesty is against all wars. He is a pacifist by nature - very gentle.
General Bonner Fellers:
Yet he gave permission for Pearl Harbor.
Prince Konoe:
When Tojo and the militarists took power, His Majesty was... "drawn in". It was a national delusion.
General Bonner Fellers:
Could he have stopped it?
Prince Konoe:
I don't know. I was removed from power by then.
