Various reasons drew the United States into WWII. The attack on Pearl Harbor started the war in the Pacific against Japan. As for the European Theater, The sinking of the RMS Lusitania by a German U-Boat (attack on a civilian vessel which had Americans on board) and the discovery of the Zimmerman note (Germans asked tried to turn Mexico against the US) finally provided the reason to join the war.
