Imperial Japan – a fascist entity – was the enemy of the US both before and during WWII. Indeed, the Pacific War was brutal – and this brutality inspired the US to request that the Soviet Red Army and Mongolian People’s Army enter Northeast China and clear it out of all Japanese colonial and militaristic presence in 1945. Although the US dropped two atomic bombs onto civilians targets in Japan during WWII – the US has used a defeated Japan as a bulwark against the spread of Socialism in Asia – on the one-hand banning nuclear weapons in Japan – whilst simultaneously supplying all the constituent parts (and radio-active components) for such weapons to be assembled at short-notice (just in-case the US needs to fire said weapons from Japanese territory). This policy has unfolded whilst the US has hypocritically bombed Iran for Israel – and Israel has bombed everywhere else using US-supplied weaponry. To be clear, an unstable (far-right) Japan has been given a) permission to gather all the constituent parts that are used to manufacture a nuclear weapon by the US, and is b) under its current far-right government is agitating to assemble this gathered material into functioning nuclear bombs to threaten China (like the nuclear bombs in the UK – these weapons of mass destruction cannot be fired without the permission of the US – as this safeguard prevents these weapons being used against the US).
