Why Japan Won World War II "An Application of the Operational Factors of War"

Abstract : If Japan had followed its attack on Pearl Harbor with an invasion of Hawaii, it would have controlled the operational factors of war (time, space, and forces) and would therefore have won World War II. The lessons that can be learned from this hypothetical look back at history are applicable to today's Joint Force Commander in the execution of operations, whether they are MOOTW or conventional warfare.
