Thing about that was it was a domestic centric issue, between the government and the people, not a bona fide diplomatic incident between governments. The Japanese government had found the treaty acceptable and signed on, though some citizens felt otherwise. The unrest was a symptom of deeper political internecine struggles that continued ebbing and flowing until the military finally seized control once and for all in a later decade.
When we publicly snubbed their claims on German territories after the first world war and engaged an official policy against Japanese immigration is when the real stink began and relations went to tangibly going downhill.

Re professor, Univ. Of. No. Carolina, insanity. Add into the mix for the total overview of this ideological MARXIST academic shitpot - CRT, Marxism, academic treason and mental subversion.
And that’s the truth!

Japan was rolling out Japanese colonialism.
To: ThanhPhero
Pretty much. And they’d been at it a while before they decided to drag the US into WWII. Hubris, meet nemesis.

The more I see how evil the Demonrat party is, the more I believe that is true and that he did know what was going to happen.

Actually, its real. Another Freeper pointed out the circumstance. I then went and looked for the info online and on my bookshelf...
“The oil embargo was a result of Japanese atrocities in China. The Rape of Nanking was the worst publicized atrocity at that time. And one of the worst atrocities in history. Even the Nazi Ambassador from Germany at the time was utterly appalled at the brutality of the Japanese. Babies were hoisted on bayonets. Rapes by the thousands and each victim murdered. Two Japanese officers had a contest to see who could decapitate the most Chinese in a day. It goes on and on. If we had done nothing it would have been an unforgiveable stain on our honor.
These people who try to blame the war on the US are disgusting. The Imperial Japanese were racial supremacists, classical ones.
They could have done what other nations do: trade for oil. Instead they decided to loot the world. They were bent on conquest of China and the entire Far East. They should be thankful it was only two atom bombs.”

Well, yeah I knew the embargo was a real policy. The problem I was having is that it has been represented as a real reason the Japs attacked the US.
Anyway, I'm happy that you have an interest in history. If only more folk did - makes it harder to pull the wool over the eyes when you're well informed. The despots wouldn't get as far as they would.
