Ok, so you're saying that a meager force of 107 pilots who volunteered to fight for another country, mostly for cash and love of flying, somehow constitutes a US war against Japan?
If so, your sense of proportion is truly astounding and may explain your other peculiar reasoning that everything, including December 7th, was "planned" -- by us.

If 19 Muslims from various Middle Eastern nations hijack U.S. passenger jets and crash them into buildings in New York and Washington (killing 3,000+ Americans in the process), does this constitute an act of war on the part of Afghanistan, Iraq, or any other nation against the United States?
Under the Bush Doctrine it doesn't have to be an act of war. We will preemptively strike terrorists -- and their sponsors -- whenever and wherever necessary.
But tell me, this is where we began, aren't we getting rather far afield?
Get real. Those events were simply accidents of timing. All three of these Democrat presidents were elected (Truman as part of the ticket) because Mr. & Mrs. America thought they would get more in their wallets, not because of any desire for war things or to protect ourselves from leftists.
