Why are defenders of Nazism so butthurt about losing in WWII?
If Germany didn't want America to fight them, why did they declare war on us?
>inb4: they were allies with the Japs
Ok, then why did the Japanese feel at all justified attacking Pearl Harbor?

Bad thread
Germany did not declare war first, educate yourself
bad
>Ok, then why did the Japanese feel at all justified attacking Pearl Harbor?
They knew that the US would stand in the way of their expansion from the actions of our Navy.
>The Pacific is a great big ocean. We have a tremendous coastline on the Pacific. Will the maneuvers be off the coast, two or three hundred miles? Oh, no. The maneuvers will be two thousand, yes, perhaps even thirty-five hundred miles, off the coast.
>The Japanese, a proud people, of course will be pleased beyond expression to see the United States fleet so close to Nippon's shores. Even as pleased as would be the residents of California were they to dimly discern through the morning mist, the Japanese fleet playing at war games off Los Angeles.

Remember if you MUST post after me. Put that magic word in options
this is false
literally takes two seconds to look it up, Germany declared war 4 days after US declared war on Japan
Directly supplying Germany's enemy and declaring war on its ally is basically a declaration of war, they knew what would happen
Because an immediate result afterwards was totalitarian communisim on a third of the globe.
I'm not pro nazi. I'm anti communist.
>Ok, then why did the Japanese feel at all justified attacking Pearl Harbor?
tl/dr. For the same reason why America felt justified in overthrowing the Hawaiian government and making it part of America.
Because Japan believed that European powers had plans to fuck them up like they did China, India, and most of SE asia. Japan felt the ONLY way out was to copy the English model and build an empire. They were so strong in their belief that they dismantled the fucking Samurai system, the very core of their society and government.
The long term goal was to eventually industrialize and unify asia as a Japanese federation. See also: Greater east asia co prosperity sphere.
The US's move to stop this from happening was an embargo and blockade of 80-90 percent of Japan's oil supplies, which is causu beli to declare war by any industralized country.
>If Germany didn't want America to fight them, why did they declare war on us?
Yeah we totally should have let you guys supply the Soviets and the UK while we are being at War with them and sinking any uboat that was around in that Area that was very truly peaceful
It was Germany's decision to back up Japan. They could have just let Japan eat the consequences of attacking the US.
Remember that Japan didn't declare war on the Soviets in 1941. Operation Barbarossa was before Pearl Harbor. Germany did not have to declare war on the United States, but they chose to pick that fight.
>Economic warfare that directly impacts civilian life, perhaps even leading to some civilian deaths
>Fine
>Physical warfare through the assault on a military base that doesn't have nearly as much of an impact on civilians
>Going too far
One day I'll hear an adequate explanation for this.
Why was Japanese aggression in the Far-East "fine" then?
As I said, the US was already directly influencing Britain's war against Germany
>intentionally feeding the "Americans don't k ow their history" shit.
We cut off oil trade over them killing a few worthless overpopulated chinks. We were bombed for aiding Japan's enemy.
>this is false
oh really?
Britain and France declared war on Germany first.
They went through six years of hell and sacrificed all those lives for a bunch of ungrateful Poles today.
Of course. It's only OK when Europe does it. Japan's only allowed to be agressive in the Far East when it supports European interests.
They could have killed 10 times as many. It was fucking with colonial interests, like America in pinoy land and England's colonies that matter.
>strawman
Pearl Harbour ? Same reason the Japs hate America today, you have warships parked in their backyard with no good reason beyond arrogance, leaking McDonalds lard and %56 mexican//jew/nigger faeces into the fucking harbour where Japs are peacefully trying to murder their dolphins.
>Ok, then why did the Japanese feel at all justified attacking Pearl Harbor?
The USA were conducting an oil embargo on them
