Maybe. Are you alluding to the suggestion that British military intelligence
had forewarning of the attack on Pearl Harbor? The one covered by an article
entitled Pearl Harbor advance-knowledge conspiracy theory
[wikipedia.org]?
If so, please note that the Wikipedia entry you linked
to clearly states that the codes intercepted and broken were those being used
between the Japanese embassy in London and the Foreign Ministry in
Tokyo.
It isn't clear to me from the Sempill article that either (i)
military planning for the Pearl Harbor raid would ever have been discussed over
that channel or (ii) that Japanese naval codes were vulnerable to decryption
before December 1941.
The conspiracy theory article mostly presents
evidence. I recommend
http://www.ibiblio.org/pha/myths/; and if I misinterpreted the point of
your post, I apologise. --- (c) assigned to PJ
