WW II: What if Japan attacked the west coast?

[idiana]

If Japan attacked west coast at Vladivostok, i think USSR have no chance to hold Moscow. They would fall into German rule, or the war would last longer than the fact.

The USSR have to thank a American intelligent agent in Tokyo that reported back of non-Japan intrusion of west coast. Unfortunately he was then accused and executed in Tokyo 1944.

Yamamoto even stated that attacking the US would be a blunder for many people there owned rifles and they ( The Japanese ) would have their hands full. A paraphase mind you. He knew the people and their mind set.....' We have only awakened a sleeping giant' ...after Pearl became a household word. Yes, they would have caught us off guard but then all heck would have arisen and the mighty Japanese would have suffered their first real defeat in centuries right here in America. They did attack San Diego via a submarine firing into town and the Great Northwest with baloon bombs but neither was much of an impact other than people drew closer together ! They were doomed and many knew it early on but the Ninja Pride would not allow them to settle for a peace treaty ! What a shame for they are really good people...no, not their Army & Navy !
