This could be exciting. We had good reasons to impose pacifism on Japan after WWII. Between 1894 and 1945, they had fought two aggressive wars with China, including a successful invasion of Manchuria, a war with Russia, conducted later action against Russia during WWI (from which Russia had to pull out early, due to certain troubles at home) in Siberia under the guise of the war effort, they withdrew from the League of Nations, and finally attacked us at Pearl Harbor. I'd say those are pretty good reasons to tell someone to put down the guns, yeah.
I expect our turn is coming, too.

Interesting point about having pacifism imposed on the Japanese.
On a related topic, I hate the phrase American Empire. If history teaches us anything, it is that all empires fall. By calling it that, the Project for a New American Century starts the clock ticking on the death of the Republic and then the fall of the empire.
