Yes, the US was conducting an economic war on Japan. Yes, FDR wanted war. yes, FDR colluded to entice the attack. Yes, yes, yes.

HOWEVER - that isn't the sole nor even primary reason Japan attacked.

the PRIMARY reason was the Empire of Japan's desire to control the Pacific and the US was in the way.
