the provocations from the US toward Japan.
The sanctions from the US toward Japan.

And let's talk about Pearl Harbor... an attack on a military base. Which yes, was horrendous, and cost the lives of 2500 military personnel with another 1700ish injured. And killed 70ish civilians and injured another 30.

vs.

Hiroshima and Nagasaki in which 250,000 people were killed. When Japan had been trying to surrender.
