The British Navy was in the Indian Ocean effectively cutting off supply and communication lines between Japan and Germany and Italy. However, Japan posed a serious threat to the British Fleet and an attack was VERY likely. In order to prevent such an attack which would have made the Suez Canal much more valuable to the Germans because of supplies and communication with the Japanese, the United States had to intervene, and provocation was the only way.
