Japanese imperialism was not simply about increasing the nation’s territory. It was also fueled by a strong ideological sense of mission and racial superiority. In the minds of many Japanese, expanding their empire into other Asian regions was somehow different from that sort of imperialism. They thought of their ambitions as bringing their Asian brethren together. Hope this helps in some way!

There are many things that Bush emphasized as a top us foreign policy objective, but he was most known for "fighting the war on terrorism" which led to lots of strikes overseas.
