because Roosevelt had cut them off in an attempt to stop their Asian aggression, and a good case can be made that he wanted to force them into an attack on us.

Hmmm.. force them to attack us Lindy?? You mean like the Japanese had a right to run rampant across the Pacific and the US had no right to defend these Islands from Japanese aggression??

If I see you kicking some kid's butt and I stick myself in between the two of you, does that mean I've "forced" you to attack me??

Or does that mean you have decided to widen your aggression to include people your own size??

I really find it quite effective to break down international relations to that of Children interacting with one another.. After all, behind all of these international policies and actions lies the decision making process of knaves and nobles..
