The bottom line is that there was no plan to invade the US mainland armed populace or no.

BS. Care to support your argument with evidence? If the US were not armed to the teeth, then I can tell you that they would have tried.
Regardless, I proved my point from above. Its not that they didn't want to, it is because it was suicide. Still is.

Subman, posting a couple of quotes off websites does not constitute proof of anything.
Besides I might ask you the same question, where is the evidence that Japan seriously planned and intended to invade the US? Where are the plans?

They didn't. At least during WWII.
They planned to stab the American fleet in the eye and sue for peace on terms that favored them. When that didn't work out, they hoped to fight a prolonged defensive action that they hoped the American populace would tire of eventually.
