The historical mystery that remains unexplained: the terrible coincidence of World War II

During World War II, pearl harbor can be said to be the turning point of this world war, so it has always attracted much attention and discussion. However, there is actually an unknown hidden story about Pearl Harbor, which is unbelievable.

As we all know, in the early morning of December 7, 1941, the Japanese raided Pearl Harbor. Just 16 days earlier, on November 22, 1941, two unusual ads had been placed in the New Yorker newspaper. Both ads were for a new dice roll called "Doubling of Death", both of which were titled "Attention, War, Alert", the first ended with "Doubling of Death", and below it was a two-headed eagle badge (like the German decorative coat of arms), and the second was titled with two three-sided visible dice, one black and one white, with two numbers on the dice, 12 and 24, and three numbers on the black dice, 0, 5 and 7.

When Japan raided Pearl Harbor, attention was paid to both ads. Speculation has been made that the two ads are not as simple as they seem, 12 and 7 are the dates of the attack on Pearl Harbor, and 5 and 0 are the time of the raid, although it is not clear what 24 represents, but it is speculated that it is likely to be an order or warning notice from the Axis powers to its agents. The incident was so serious that the FBI intervened in the investigation, but in the end it was dismissed because nothing was found.

In the United States, the game itself is indeed legal, and in 1941, there were stores in New York that sold the game, but people did not give up their suspicions about those two ads, and even the U.S. government has always been angry about this matter. It wasn't until 1967, when a man named Ladislas Farag first revealed at his book launch that the two ads had nothing to do with "sneak attacks," and because he had worked in the U.S. Naval intelligence agency, people slowly put the matter down in disbelief.

Coincidentally, during World War II, such a fatal coincidence was not the only time. In 1944, the Allies intended to invade Europe and made elaborate preparations for this goal. Of course, this is all done in extreme secrecy. It was later learned that the code name of the entire operation was "Overlord", and during the implementation process, each operation and operation location also had its own code name, for example, the code name of the naval raid was "Neptune", the code name of the artificial port that provided supplies during the attack was "Malebe", and of course, important places like the French landing point also had code names, "Omaha" and "Utah".

Of course, it is not uncommon to set code names for an operation out of a need for secrecy, but it is strange that 33 days before the start of the offensive, these code names began to appear in the crossword puzzle of the London newspaper The Daily Telegraph.

Such a coincidence will be inconceivable to anyone, so the security personnel raided the newspaper's office, but finally found that the person who wrote the anagram was an ordinary classroom, and this work has been done for 20 years, after some interrogation did not find anything suspicious, the security personnel had to close the case.

But these two incredible coincidences really make people wonder, is it the enemy lurking too deep, doing enough superficial work to keep dripping water, or some people have magical special functions to predict the future without knowing it, or some mysterious forces give people a warning? What is the truth, I hope that one day it will be revealed to the world.
