As I recall, Imperial Japan conducted deceptive practices prior to the attack on Pearl Harbor.
However, I doubt that reconciliations similar to those that developed between post-WWII Japan and the US will ever exist between 7th century barbarians and members of present-day societies.
I know from a Marine veteran who was in on the early days of the occupation that many Japanese civilians were glad to see the end of the military dictatorship, and once they realized that American marines weren't going to barbecue their babies they became very friendly. Especially the women, who had been treated like farm animals.
That doesn't seem to happen with Muslims. Is it the inbreeding?
