Japan was inflicting such brutal atrocities on the world that we had no choice but to try to stop them any way we could.

Not 100%. Don't forget that Japan started the war by their surprise attack on our country that killed over 2,000, and destroyed many of our military assets.

55 to 68 civilians were killed. That's a war crime.
