No one know why " exactly " Germany and Italy declared war on the united states after the attack of pearl harbor "they did not need a 3rd front to fight on"
bat i think that because when U.S wase a Neutral country , Germany U-boat can not attack ther ships heading to U.K "and the US Navy Neutrality Patrol had ensured safe passage of merchant ships bound for England , so the siege of U.K was not effective
they take the opportunity of U.S declare war on Japan and they did the same .
Germany and Italy declared war on the US on Dec. 11, 1941 after the US declared war on Japan because of the bombing of Pearl Harbor on the 7th. The United States never did declare war on Germany/Italy.
The United States was bombed by the Japanese at Pearl Harbor which cause a declaration of war but Germany had an alliance with Japan and it had forced the United States to declare war on Germany too. Then Germany had an alliance with Italy which cause the United States to declare war on yet another country. Then the world was at war and therefore World War 2 started.
America didn't declare war on Germany and Italy, it was the other way round. As part of the Axis Pact, once war was declared between the empire of Japan and the United States, Germany and Italy declared war on America on the 11th of December 1941, 4 days after the attack on Pearl Harbour.
