the U.S., having been attacked by Japan to begin with

The Japanese did not attack the U.S. They attacked a foreign military base, after significant provocation. Japan got all of their oil from us. We slapped an oil embargo on them, and then threatened military action if the Japanese tried to gain control of SE Asian oil.

centuries of Japanese warlords pillaging and raping the rest of Asia and the Pacific were brought to an end

Replaced by American raping and pillaging - on a vastly larger scale.
