Japan dropped a lot of bombs on the US Pacific Fleet in Hawaii to try to destroy the ships and aircraft of the fleet. Japan had been invading China since 1937 and to try to stop them the USA imposed embargoes on imports to Japan including oil and steel. The government of Japan was a mainly military government which resented US involvement and decided to destroy the local forces of the US, Britain and Holland and take the mineral wealth of the region for themselves.
Japan did not seek to occupy Hawaii, only to destroy the US Pacific Fleet,

They did not choose Hawaii. They chose to destroy the US Navy fleet, which was based in Pearl Harbor, HI.
The attack by Japan was an attempt to destroy our Naval capabilities, not to shame us. If our aircraft carriers had been in port we may have lost significant military might that would have impacted the outcome of the war.
Japan has lots of tornadoes, and they also destroy lots of things.
The United States was attacked by Japan without warning in December 1941, and there was a declared state of war between the two nations. Japan and the US had both used aerial bombardment of cities in order to destroy the means of production of military supplies and troops. The US had demanded the unconditional surrender of Japan, and Japan had refused. In August 1945, after being at war for about 3 yrs and 8 months, the US dropped the first two atomic bombs on Japan, and Japan decided to surrender.
The reason Imperial Japan bombed Pearl Harbor was to cripple/destroy the US Pacific fleet in order to prevent it intervening in the Japanese invasion of Southeast Asia. The Japanese leadership hoped that rather than fight a protracted two front war with Germany and Japan, the US government would sue for peace. Needless to say, they were wrong.

Japan fully expected that the US would fight back after Pearl Harbor was bombed. The purpose of the bombing was to destroy the US Pacific Fleet and thus make the US unable to apply significant military force in the Pacific while Japan conquered the territories it needed. Some in Japan thought the US could then be brought to peace talks and a treaty. Others understood that Japan having the upper hand in the Western Pacific would probably only be a temporary situation.
