Otto Tolischus was in Tokyo for the NYT on Dec. 7, 1941, and was arrested and tortured until he returned to the US in a prisoner exchange. His early research, pointing to evidence that Japan indeed intended to rule the world, was, I suspect, quickly swept under the rug, in the rush to the Cold War and the switcheroo of making Japan our ally and Red China our enemy, in favor of Reichshauer's "militarists took over the government and fooled the Emperor." That narrative is still heard among intellectuals today, even though that was blown out of the water by numerous studies since, including David Bergamini's Japan's Imperial Conspiracy and later work by Edward Behr and Herbert Bix, among others.

That article (page 22). Replace the word Jap/Japanese with Muslim/Islam and change the date to 2015.
