defend itself.

The treaty (together with Japan’s pacifist constitution, especially Article 9, and the U.S.–Japan security arrangements) limited Japan to military forces for self-defense rather than offensive actions like fighting communism, policing its population, or acting as a proxy to support U.S. troops.
