Roosevelt didn't necessarily strike out against Hitler, as much as Tojo. America joined World War 2 due to Pearl Harbor, the famous event when Japan bombed US naval base in Hawaii.

What is less well known is that on 10 December 1941, Germany declared war on the United States.

When did Roosevelt decide Hitler had to be stopped?

It is not clear from the historical record as to precisely when President Roosevelt personally decided that Hitler was such a menace to civilization that he needed to be stopped by force of some kind. During 1940, however, this decision was revealed in his commitment to assisting Great Britain in its fight against Hitler. Even more clearly, from December 7th of 1941 onward, Roosevelt made the fight against Hitler America's first priority, despite the hostilities that had at that time broken out against Imperial Japan.
