Plenty of civilians were killed at Pearl Harbor. Was that a justified cause by the Japanese?

Fewer than a hundred civilians were killed at Pearl Harbor and some/many of those were killed by friendly fire.
The firebombing raids were a different story. Pearl Harbor and the surrounding military facilities were targeted. The firebombing of Japanese cities was indiscriminate.

Of course not. None of it is justifiable.
I was more thinking of any middle east country that has had American troops in it over the last 20 years when I said be careful of justifying civilian deaths due to a nations soldiers.
According to your logic, if a nation's soldiers mistreat another nation, they have cause to attack its citizenry-right?
