I'm not going to argue about it one way or another, but I wonder if the article shouldn't be called [[Attack on Pearl Harbor]] instead? I would suggest that most people think of it specifically in terms of an '''attack''', rather than a '''battle''', which definitely has other connotations, although I will readily admit that a "battle" can most certainly follow an "attack".  Just a suggestion....
