During World War II, America viewed Japan as a formidable enemy following the attack on Pearl Harbor in December 1941, which galvanized public opinion against Japan. The U.S. government and media portrayed Japan as a militaristic aggressor, emphasizing its expansionist ambitions in Asia and the Pacific. This perception was fueled by Propaganda that depicted Japanese soldiers as brutal and inhumane, contributing to a climate of fear and distrust. Consequently, Japanese Americans faced widespread discrimination and internment, reflecting the broader anti-Japanese sentiment in American society at the time.
