1 brief and not whollly accurate, but a start at least answer - was that they realised that if they didn't involve themselves they would a) have no friends internationally...b) the war was moving their way, and they didn't want to dirty their own shores. It's much harder to fight when someone is on your land than if you actually go out to meet them and stop them before they reach your perimeter. It didn't, really. The US went to war to end U-Boat attacks on its ships and German anti-US intrigues in Mexico. That achieved, it soon reverted tto isolationism and so sontinued until 1941.
