I don't think Japan really wants to go to war with anyone, what with the rapidly falling birthrate and all. This sounds more like an economic thing to me; between recruiting and contracting, armies are an easy way for governments to spread money around.

I think with a falling birthrate, it'd be bad to get into a war since that's more stress on the man if they try to raise a family, aka less people getting married.
