>>2089149It really does not matter what the U.S. intentions were, In a fight, it usually gets started verbally and escalated to the point at which it turns violent and one of them punches the other, in this example the person who punched first is in the wrong even though the other was probably being very rude. The U.S. could threaten Japan like North Korea does to the U.S. but the fact of the matter is that Japan had attacked the U.S. on their ground first, If you were punched by someone would you just take it and walk away?, No you would punch back and stand your ground.
