The Japanese stratagy of WW2 was to win a quick victory over the only power that could stop them from complete control of the Pacific and all of its western and southern islands (to them) and possibly to take New Zealand and Australia. The United States stood in their way. Since the US Navy was our tool to project power throughout the Pacific it had to be destroyed-hence Pearl Harbor. It takes a long time to build huge ships and by destroying our Pacific fleet we could not have projected power for years to come. By then Japan would have a stronghold on most of the Pacific and would have kept it. The Japanese were very successful in the Pearl Harbour attack, but not completely. Our large aircraft carriers were at sea at the time of the attck and were preserved to fight in the future. As the war progressed,Japan even resorted to suicide airplane pilots and were prepared for every man woman and child to die defending their island. It took two atom bombs for the Emperor to finally tell the military commanders to surrender. Causeing the the death of 50 thousnds of Japens civlianes, that was the major complain agaist U.S.A. doorping the A-Bomb. It is a shame that militarism and expansionism took root in Japan and led so many of her people to starvation and death. They have been pacifistic for nearly 60 years. Japan's strategy was to pretend to fight a war of Asian liberation while at the same time plundering the riches of Asia and hauling them back to Japan. A massive deception executed by the thugs who ran Japan. To a degree this worked, however they were forced to share a percentage of their riches with the competition.
