Sounds suspiciously fake
A country that invaded its neighbour was also seriously considering invading their other neighbour... how completely unbelievable /s
Most likely, before they chose their actual target, they ran similar analyses on a pretty long list of countries (I wouldn't be surprised if such analyses were practiced by some other countries, too), only the one about Japan leaked.
Who gains the most from this leak? Japan - possible international approval for rebuilding their intelligence services and maybe army. Don't forget not only Russia is pointing rockets at them and they're still demilitarized after WWII.

I am glad that did not happen as it would have brought an immediate U.S. military response and who knows what after that.
That was probably among the reasons they ultimately chose not to.
