The US does not have the ability any longer to say what Japan's Constitution allows or doesn't allow, the reason the limitations upon the Japanese military still exists is because...the pacifists in Japan want it to. There have been a few attempts to upend the status quo, but it has so far failed due to internal pressure. That's it.
