We can say it's a bad idea because we can look at it with 20/20 hindsight. However, IF the Japanese had destroyed the oil storage tanks at Pearl, AND if Midway wasn't such a rout, the results may not have been so cut-and-dried. Furthermore, at the time, to be a world power you needed the raw materials from which to build things, and to ensure a relatively steady supply, you took the lands which had them. Japan looked at Britain, France, Germany, etc., and decided to follow their model. |
