Prompt: On the ships anchored at Pearl Harbor this Sunday morning, men are sleeping, eating breakfast, relaxing on the sunny decks, or preparing to go ashore for last minute Christmas shopping. On the cruiser Helena, some of the Marines are getting ready for a softball game. For the second time in three hours, the Ward is on alert, having again detected a strange movement in the water. Upon closer inspection, Lieutenant Outerbridge is stunned to see a stubby black submarine, half submerged. He immediately orders the crew to sink it, and any other submarines they may find. Outerbridge radios the following message back to headquarters at Pearl Harbor:
"We have attacked, fired on, depth-charged, and sunk submarine operating in defensive sea area."
But the Lieutenant's message is decoded very slowly. No one knows to call an alert.
*Depth charge - an explosive device designed to explode underwater

Question: Not knowing about the impending attack, what are the possible positive and negative outcomes of sinking this unknown “stubby black submarine”?

"Hawaiin Submarine Incident" would possibly be called if the attack on Pearl Harbor did not happen.

Explanation:

The Japanese and Americans would most likely have a debate with each other about the origin of the submarine and why it was there. Japan could either take choose to deny it was Japanese or use the incident to justify the expansion of Japanese territory while in the meantime, the US would like to know why the submarine was there in the first place. It would be highly improbable if the US had declared war on Japan over this, especially since most Americans at the time did not want to join another war. The US had already embargoed Japan but the US could possibly have more trading disputes with Japan.

relations between the soviet union and the united states were driven by a complex interplay of ideological, political, and economic factors, which led to shifts between cautious cooperation and often bitter superpower rivalry over the years. the distinct differences in the political systems of the two countries often prevented them from reaching a mutual understanding on key policy issues and even, as in the case of the cuban missile crisis, brought them to the brink of war.

the united states government was initially hostile to the soviet leaders for taking russia out of world war i and was opposed to a state ideologically based on communism. although the united states embarked on a famine relief program in the soviet union in the early 1920s and american businessmen established commercial ties there during the period of the new economic policy (1921–29), the two countries did not establish diplomatic relations until 1933. by that time, the totalitarian nature of joseph stalin's regime presented an insurmountable obstacle to friendly relations with the west. although world war ii brought the two countries into alliance, based on the common aim of defeating nazi germany, the soviet union's aggressive, antidemocratic policy toward eastern europe had created tensions even before the war ended.
