  1. after being beaten in siberia by a very busy elsewhere ussr, plan b, japan reverted to plan a, being beaten by the usa, but not today. the conquest of china was a more reasonable goal, but even that was just too hard. the militarist fantasists of the tojo government were simply out of touch with reality. even the japanese naval command had better sense, famously evaluating the situation as ' ... last about a year, against usa.' this is not a matter of strategy, more a psychological event acted out by japan: 'when previous crimes ensure death, may as well keep fighting.'
