This is an answer for WW2!

Prior to the attack of Pearl Harbor the general view was this was a European problem and in Asia Japan was invading placed they had never heard of so no one really wanted to get involved in something that did not directly affect them.

When Japan attacked Pearl Harbor, the American population resoundingly want nothing but the destruction of the Empire of Japan. It is wrongly taught that the USA also declared war on Germany at the same time. This is not correct we originally only declared war against Japan since they were the ones who attacked us. It was only after Germany and Italy declared war on us did we reciprocate a few days later.

Pretty much Americans wanted revenge for Pearl Harbor against those who struck us, no one else.
