ROUGH CUT (NO REPORTER NARRATION) STORY: Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe offered his condolences on Tuesday (December 27) to the people who were killed in the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941, after visiting the memorial to the sunken battleship USS Arizona. "President Obama, the people of the United States of America and the people around the world, as the prime minister of Japan I offer my sincere and everlasting condolences to the souls of those who have lost their lives here," Abe said. Japanese forces attacked Pearl Harbor with torpedo planes, bombers and fighter planes on the morning of Dec. 7, 1941, pounding the U.S. fleet moored there in the hope of destroying U.S. power in the Pacific. The Japanese leader's visit to Pearl Harbor comes months after President Barack Obama became the first incumbent U.S. president to visit Hiroshima, where the United States dropped an atomic bomb in 1945.
