Points 2 and 3 should be edited: US is in fact to blame for almost every war they were involved in, and they are the Great Satan.
Maybe 5 too, regardless of other shit Japanese Empire did, i don’t think Pearl Harbor was an atrocity, surprise attack on military targets is one of the oldest tricks in the books not to mention it wasn’t even very surprising.
Just because propaganda is true doesn’t mean it’s not propaganda.
Also an unannounced, preemptive first strike is an atrocity and a war crime. Same reason why the vast majority of the OKW were sentenced to death for Crimes Against Peace with the surprise nature of Barbarossa. Just because a surprise attack is the oldest trick in the book, doesn’t make it not illegal.
Also Pearl Harbour was not expected. The core reason behind it being a war crime was that the US and Japan were in peace negotiations to put an end to the Second Sino-Japanese War, and Japan’s recent annexation of Vietnam. Japan entered the negotiation with no intention of them going anywhere, and broke off the talks 30 minutes before the attack, thereby committing perfidy.
