Look at a map.Rusdia to North. China to East Australia to South. That's 3 fronts . See ya can't address equipment disparity .Japanese had zero tanks that could go toe to toe with Soviet mainline tanks. And then there is thisJust look at how close a deal Normandy was, and we had total air superiority. . Japan was alrdy tied down in SE Asia and China ...Japan would have been fighting essentially a 2 front war. Read reams of WW II history with nary a wiff of them contemplating this.
Again you fail to understand: Japan would be fighting the Soviets, not America.
One front.

Neither was going to fight the other .Russia didn't have the Navy and Japan didn't have the equipment to stand up in face off against tanks.........SE Asia had all resources Japan needed

Your link proves what I've said....not what you've said.
Stalin was deathly afraid to have to fight Germany and Japan.
In your link, he agrees to Japan's annexation of Manchuria.....
Pick up a copy:
In "Sacred Secrets: How Soviet Intelligence Operations Changed American History," Leona Schecter and Jerrold Schecter make a very strong case for Pearl Harbor being the most complex and successful KGB operation, designed to avert a Japanese attack on the USSR, and to force the United States to fight a two-front war, and be unable to stop Stalin from control of at least half of Europe. In 1995, former Kremlin agent Vitaly Pavlov revealed his role in this "Operation Snow."

How many of those resources are still untapped today because it's damn cold and thus too expensive to bother
If he knew....why would he leave his battleships in port?Not to say Roosevelt might have know about the attack ...he may have .......been speclulted long time,
Our battleships should not have been there either.Surprise????
Pearl Harbor….Did Anyone Know It Was Coming????
December 7th....this date.....1941.... 2,335 military personnel killed, 1,177 were killed on board the U.S.S. Arizona.
Was it worth it to preserve the Soviet Union?????
1.I hate to give away the answer up front…but, yup…..everyone knew. (Psssst….Japanese planes sunk an American warship almost exactly four years before Pearl Harbor. A Clue….ya’ think?)
Well….to be more precise, Franklin Roosevelt didn’t appear to know….and government school grads still don’t know.
2. Japan knew, the Germans knew- Japan’s allies, the British knew- they sent a spy to make sure the White House knew, the Soviets knew- they had planned it, even Korean-American Kilsoo Haan knew-…more about him later.
3. Here’s the context: Japan needed to secure nature resources not found in Japan, so war was on the horizon. For Japan, it was finding resources, or death of the nation. It was the reason they invaded Manchuria in 1931.
“Japan's ongoing industrialization and militarization ensured his growing dependence on oil and metal imports from the US.[3] The American sanctions which prevented trade with the United States (which had occupied the Philippinesaround the same time) resulted in Japan furthering their expansion in the territory of China and Southeast Asia.”

But, really......Soviet Siberia was the obvious choice to target for geographical and historical reasons. Somehow the target was switched....
Stalin knew, and recognized that he’d be hard pressed to win a two front war: Germany to the west, and Japan to the South. So…..he had to make sure that Japan attacked America….and, luckily for him, his boyfriend was President, and his spies populated the Roosevelt administration.
“Even the most inscrutable Japanese businessman becomes more scrutable when he talks about Siberia, which is 35 times as large as Japan's home islands and less than 400 miles away. Mainland Siberia is one of the world's largest reservoirs of undeveloped natural resources (see map), a fact that does not fail to impress the raw material-hungry Japanese.”
Japan: Eyes on Siberia
4. Here’s one of those spies now! Harry Dexter White, Morgenthau’s right-hand man, and the man who controlled the FDR Treasury Department.
“Harry Dexter White, a trusted assistant to Franklin Roosevelt’s close friend and secretary of the Treasury, Henry Morgenthau Jr., had just bought Vitalii Pavlov lunch. White had also accepted a written NKVD order on behalf of Joseph Stalin to protect the Soviet Union’s Pacific flank. He had agreed to provoke a war between the United States and Japan.” John Koster, “Operation Snow: How a Soviet Mole in FDR’s White House Triggered Pearl Harbor,” p.8
"He had agreed to provoke a war between the United States and Japan.”
5. While Japan had plans for the attack on Pearl, negotiations were ongoing, with the hope that they would preclude the war. When, in November, it looked like they might succeed, and peace break out, Harry White panicked!!
Oh, no! Japan might choose Stalin’s Russia as the target!!!!
Soooo.........
He authored an ultimatum that he knew would drive Japan to attack.
Either FDR was snoozing….or he was more concerned for Soviets than Americans.
I’ll provide that memorandum, and prove how widespread knowledge of the attack was known.
Had to be some sort of targets eh......scout flies over and sees mty port ...prolly would be a tipoff they are on to yaIf he knew....why would he leave his battleships in port?Not to say Roosevelt might have know about the attack ...he may have .......been speclulted long time,
Why enter a war on two fronts with your Navy crippled?
Disrespectful, freakish post...Surprise????

There are certain people that the media and so-called scholars and authors have declared sacred and off limits to discussion. Chief of Staff (later secretary of state) George C. Marshall is such a person. Marshall is credited with a near photographic memory but a few years after the most important incident of his life he could not recall his whereabouts in the early morning hours of 12/7/1941. When he finally walked into his office, uncharacteristically late on that fateful morning, he read and re-read and re-re read the decoded Magic message that indicated imminent attack but he failed to warn Pearl Harbor until the military message center went down. He could have picked up a phone but he decided to send a telegraph that arrived at Pearl about the same time as the Japanese bombers. Contrary to military tradition, Marshall blamed subordinates for his own negligence.
Japan did not have a force large enough, or a supply chain to invade the expanses of Siberia with horrible roads and weatherYah....still damn cold.....and Japan still lacked equipment to deal with Soviet Tanks ....Stalin should have suckered em into attacking would have shortened the war.
