The Japanese bascially realised that unless they could do something radical to shift the balance of power they were gonna get quietly choked out in their own back yard. It was along shot - which Yamamoto in particular understood right from the get go - but it was their only shot at becoming a world power, at least under their own terms
We cut off that Jap oil. They had no option but to attack. We knew it would happen.
Eh.
Dropped 2 bombs and set them straight. Didn't want to invade Japan itself, tired of war so we just hit the button.
