If NK is a threat to them (and it is), and NK will not listen to reason, then their argument is that a pre-emptive strike is indeed a defensive position.

Japan mulls preemptive strike on N Korea missile bases

Japan is considering whether a preemptive strike on North Korean missile bases would be an acceptable form of self-defence under the pacifist Japanese constitution, the government spokesman said on Monday.

"If we accept that there is no other option to prevent an attack ... there is the view that attacking the launch base of the guided missiles is within the constitutional right of self-defence.
