  • the American anger focused not on the Japanese Imperial government, its expansionist goals, and its role in the Rome-Berlin-Tokyo axis,  but on the Japanese as a "race". Racist anti-Japanese propaganda was already well developed on the west coast, but after the attack it was ratcheted up by politicians, the press and, quite likely, big agribusiness interests who thought (quite accurately, it turned out) that they could buy Japanese farms at discounted prices.

      This says that hatred for Japanese did not focus on them being a nation at war with the US, but instead it focused on the Japanese as a race. For example the Americans saw themselves fighting against the Germany Nazis (the government of Germany), however they saw themselves fighting against the Japanese race.
