I think Japan still would have invaded the Soviet Union though, if the Second Sino-Japanese War continued (the oil embargo only really happened once they invaded Indochina).
Other than that I agree with you. That would be curious alternate reality.
The Japanese British/ Dutch War of 1941

This question has been in my thoughts for a few days. What’s your thoughts on this subject?
-
Not declare war on Germany and Italy, otherwise not sure really. I think they would have wanted to stay out. Thy couldn’t have stayed out if the Philippines had been attacked, but I think they would have stayed out for some time if it was over the Dutch possessions.
I am sure they would never have been so unprepared in the Pacific, at Pearl especially, if it had worked out this way. -
( I know this is old, don´t blame me for that)
I think they cut off al ties with japan, but they´re not going to war unless the phillipines were attacked.
They were very isolationist, and I don´t think congress sees an japanese attack on SE asia (without american colonies) as a reason good enough to vote for a DOW.

No apologies, some topic need resurrected.

America would have got the scissors out!

We would have cut off all ties with them. The next one would have been a declaration of war.
