No it wasn't. Japan was allied with Britain in the first world war.

The treaty was actually very beneficial for Japan. As a one ocean navy they had 10 battle ships concentrated in the Pacific, the Americans (two ocean navy) had 15 but split between the Atlantic and Pacific. Britain has responsibilities all over the globe so it was even harder for us to concentrate our battleships (Atlantic, Pacific and Indian oceans and the Mediterranean sea).

I think you're mistaken. You can improve the yield of a fission bomb by using deuterium, and this has been partly the reason for improved efficiency in these sorts of weapons since 1945. But a proper hydrogen bomb does indeed get almost all its energy from fusion.

Were you drunk the last 13 years?

But you can plagerise things that are released under the GPL.

It's also good for turning low-grade vodka into high purity stuff.
