  1. Japan bombed Pearl Harbor Hawaii and this could not be ignored. The Congress and President chose to declare war on Japan.
  2. Adolf Hitler declared war on the US a week later so the US became legally involved in the European Theater of Operation in World War 2. They had to stop the murderous, cruel Nazi Germans. The US had learned of the atrocities being committed by the Nazis from many different Europeans and they knew they had to save the Western civilization and free the people being oppressed by the Nazis.
