I doubt they could have. The vast majority of their bombs were 551-lb, and only some of those were SAP, which would have been needed to penetrate the metal roofs of the tanks. The 1760-lb converted armor-piercing shells (of which not many were left, most had been expended in the first wave) had smaller explosive charges than even the 551-lb bombs, and with their armor-piercing weight and profile, likely wound have buried themselves bellow the tanks before exploding. Their 100-lb explosive charge isn't going to do much to the the 7000 - 21000 tons of fuel, oil, diesel, and other POLs that would have tamped that explosion down, though the tanks would probably spring some leaks.

The Japanese were specifically after the carriers, and had already reorganized their fleet such that their six biggest carriers were grouped as Kido Butai (roughly, "Mobile Force"), while their Combined Fleet with its battleships often swung at anchor and contributed very little the first eight or so months. KdB did virtually all the heavy lifting because Yamamoto, CinC Combined Fleet, was very air-minded.

The American carriers were absent for the following reasons:

1) Saratoga on the West Coast, undergoing refit
2) Lexington delivering Vultee dive-bombers to Midway
3) Enterprise returning from Wake after delivering VMF 221 to Wake Island. Had the Big E not been slowed down by heavy weather forcing the refueling of destroyers, she would have been in harbor the morning of the attack and in targeting priorities, carriers were #1 for the Japanese.

Even Ray Charles could see that war was coming soon, so the flattops were busy delivering warplanes. As much as the Americans valued battleships, you'd think that same "foresight" would've seen them moved elsewhere too.

Who takes responsibility in this ethnic cleansing is Joe Biden, his political team & Israel's Netanyahu,
Biden should go to prison.

This senile person destroyed America's image for life.

Whether or not this ethnic cleansing was a thing, I am sure Biden had nothing to do with this. I think you are just scapegoating him, just showing dislike for him, or are going by something with little or no evidence to back it up with.

Also, Biden is not destroying or ruining America. Trump would be the kind of person to do that. In fact, things in America have gotten better since Biden took office after Trump lost his second election.

Hamas attacks Israel, kills and abducts civilians, Israel retaliates, and Biden shall go to jail for this.
Sure....

You are talking to an utterly incompetent/ignorant religious fanatic, who blames the US for literally everything the crusaders cant be blamed for otherwise.
