Churchill upon hearing of the Japanese bombing at Pearl Harbor stated that now that America had entered the war, the Allies had won the war...that was the industrial might of the USA..America alone dwarfed all the Axis powers industrial capacity all by itself.

Japan NEVER HAD A CHANCE...in the first year of the war the US and Japan lost an equal number of capital ships..Japan could not replace them..

Even by Midway in 6/42 the Japanese aircraft carriers were feeling the loss of trained pilots and were understaffed.

Japan when it bombed Pearl Harbor committed suicide... Yamamoto unbderstood that, as so stated it..That he could run riot with the Americans for 6 months but after that all bets were off...
