Australian soldiers helped to fight off the Japanese in Malaya. Moreover, they were the ones who caused a lot of damage to the Japanese and they were one of the Allied.
AnswerThe Japanese were being fought from bases in northern Australia, so the Japanese attacked places where there were concentrations of Allied (especially American) forces and their equipment. This included Darwin, Broome, Thursday Island and Sydney (the latter being an attack by midget submarines on ships in the harbour as well as shelling by the mother submarine).
Because there were areas that were particularly rich in raw materials such as oil, steel and rubber. They attacked these places because they wanted it all for themselves, and they didn't want Australia to bother them while they mined the resources for themselves. When they tried to start setting up bases in Australia, the battered U.S. navy tried desperately to stop them. An effort, which would be barely successful would be the first battle between Japan an the U.S. for control of resource reserves in the Pacific.
Australia is a Commonwealth realm - meaning that it is a sovereign state which recognizes the king/queen of England as it's monarch.
As such, it had very strong ties to the Allied nations and was seen as a threat by the Japanese.
North Australian towns airports and harbours were repeatedly bombed during WWII. Darwin bore the brunt of the attacks, but there were also attacks along the northwest coast and at selected sites in the northeast.
Darwin was first bombed on 19 February 1942. Another attack happened later the same day, in which there were more then 243 fatalities and between 300-400 wounded. Military aircraft were destroyed and eight in the harbour were sunk. The majority of Darwin's defence and civil infrastructure was severely damaged.
Japanese air attacks continued until November 1943. Darwin was bombed a total of 64 times. Other victims of Japanese air raids were Townsville, Mossman, Katherine, Wyndham, Derby, Broome and Port Hedland.
They were at war with each other and, to my knowledge they did not bomb the Japanese mainland only where Japanese troops were based, New Guinea for example.
To neutralise its use as a base for American and Australian air and naval forces.
