  2. Interesting thoughts there, machaman13. But if the relationship between the US and UK is strained there is the possibility that the UK would renew its relationship with Japan, which was only ended at the insistence of the US. This would leave the UK to concentrate on Germany and Italy and Japan could carry on in the Western Pacific knowing that the UK will not intervene and with no need to stretch their resources all the way down to Australia. They take the Dutch East Indies and get the oil they need. And as we both now see the losers here will the US as the one thing they feared was a strong Japan in the Western Pacific. And that is the one thing they now have.
