Speculate for $h!t$ and giggles...

Speculate for me on the idea that Japan DID NOT engage the USA during WW2. Tell me how you think the war would have turned out and what would Japan be like today.

My thinking, is that we would have won the war in Europe quicker. Japan would have taken most if not all the island lands around Japan's reach. They would have eventually secured the resources they needed to wage more war against China and others. All the while playing nice with the USA to keep us out of the theater there. Being that we would eventually be strained against the ongoing war in Europe, we'd have had no choice but to avoid conflict with Japan. Thus giving Japan a free reign to do what it wants to its' enemies.

Of course, I'm probably way off base here.
