Actually Pete,
Churchill was glad that Pearl Harbor happened in that he knew it would bring the US into the conflict. Which means to say if it had not happened Churchill knew he was not going to have us in Europe..or could not count on us. He did not know it was going to happen either.
If Imperial Japan had drawn the line and stopped with attacking the Philippines, and had not attacked Pearl Harbor, there may have been years of American neutrality, however much we were helping Britain notwithstanding.
