The goal of the Japanese Empire was never to invade the US. Not ever. The goal of Japan's aggression was to challenge US hegemony in Asia, which is to say, break the US embargo of Japan that was starving Japan of the resources it needed to continue its operations in the region. The idea that Japan ever intended to invade the US and conquer the North American continent has absolutely zero - zero - historical basis.
The goal of Japan in Asia, however, was hegemony, to include the enslavement and eventual extermination of all Han Chinese and Koreans. The latter would have been a pity, the former, not so much.
Anyway, fck the lying, thieving, dog-eating, pandemic-creating Chinese. For the few Chinese nationals reading this, don't think for one single second that we in the US aren't on to you - you will never project power beyond your theater. You're about to learn a very valuable lesson once this pandemic is over - you can add it to your oft talked about and vaunted "four thousand year history."
