Why did the US do nothing before the bombing of Pearl Harbor?
The U.S. didn't do anything before Pearl Harbor because there were many people in the media and other "liberals" who wanted to keep the country out of what was perceived as a war in Europe. Japan assured everyone that they had no intention of invading anyone, even though they had already taken over many islands of the Pacific. It was certainly a case of a naive foreign policy. The military had been allowed to atropy following WW1, but there really wasn't much of a belief that anything was about to happen at Pearl Harbor until the bombs started falling. Don't be too critical of the leadership of that era, since we are still doing the same thing today. Through the 90's, the U.S. military was seriously reduced in size and strength. It's a lesson that we have to learn anew for every generation. In fact, there was much that the U.S. did before Pearl Harbor, some of which may even have been specifically calculated to bring the U.S. into the war. Several of the more notable things were the Lend-Lease plan that supplied armament to Great Britain and the allies, and the oil embargo against Japan that arguably was what precipitated their attack on Pearl Harbor. As the first poster points out, there were many isolationists/pacifists who viewed this as "their war," but there were many others who understood the larger picture and realized that if America didn't fight over there, she would be fighting on her own territory. Japan bombed Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941.
