The Lend-Lease Act and the Oil Embargo of Japan were seen by the Japanese as acts of war, too.
As Churchill said, I believe, "Americans can always be counted on to do the right thing, after trying all the others." So eventually, America did 'defend freedom.'
Fortunately for the world.
Had America lost the war, the Japanese would have written the history. And it could have also been written in a simplistic jingle by the Imperial Japanese. But it wouldn't have been accurate either.
The emotions this provokes are great....perhaps you can turn that energy into some objective study of the events, too.
And wrongly so. Yet you seem to defend it.
Japan joins the German-Italian axis in 1940. Lend-Lease is signed in '41.
If the Japanese didn't like us providing defensive aid to nations who were fighting the axis powers, then they should have left the axis alliance. There were no Lend-Lease assets used in an offensive manner against Japan.
There was no moral justification for the attack on Pearl Harbor.
Lend-Lease was no excuse.
Most objective people would agree....

...yet you -- don't.
