Diplomacy is supposed to be the art of politics. And diplomacy is supposed to be very eclectic in choosing the words that are uttered. More important here diplomacy is supposed to help politicians to come out safely from a crisis.

But there are moments when diplomacy fails drastically. Diplomacy after all is human creation, and likewise it is bound to fail. And simply when a diplomat is bound to fail then the whole political system will fail. There are many examples of these historical moments when both a diplomat and his political system fail. Perhaps it is the case of the Japanese ambassador to the United States, is very clear during the World War Two. When Japan attacked pearl Harbour the Japanese ambassador to the United States was called y president Eisenhower to explain the meaning behind this aggression, the Japanese ambassador failed tremendously in his task of diplomacy. For both the president and the American people were not convinced. It was a clear failure of diplomacy.
