Exactly, as Jap's saw Yankees as their potential threat, which needs to be eliminated, as the 1st ones tried to invade territory of several British external territories and were getting afraid that US will play the role of cavalry and they decided that attack is the best defence at that point, so on dec the 7th 1941, they launched an attack at the Pearl Harbor where most of the US Pacific fleet was located and, as we all know, they did a devastating blow with the attack, thus involuntary involving US in the WWII
