What was Germany attempting to accomplish by returning to its policy of unrestricted submarine warfare?
During World War I, Germany's goal in returning to unrestricted submarine warfare in 1917 was, quite simply, to bring the long war to a quick end. Realizing that this decision could bring war with the United States, German leaders calculated that their submarines would end the war before American involvement could make a difference.

Because one cannot fight a war without supplies. No supplies=no war.
What German activity brought us into the world war 1?
Unrestricted Submarine Warfare. This German policy promised that any ships bringing supplies to the British Isles would be sunk by u-boats and was the only one of Germany's strategies that left the battlegrounds, thus the only one which threatened America.
What was Germany's unrestriced submarine warfare?
In the early days of submarine warfare, there were rules that everyone followed when attacking ships. If a submarine was attacking a ship that wasn't obviously a warship, they were supposed to show themselves to the ship, tell them they were going to sink that ship, and then make sure that the crew and civilians were safely off the ship before it was sunk. During World War I, the British had such a large navy that the German navy could not defeat it, and the British were able to stop other ships from bringing food and supplies to Germany. Not only that, but the British could have food and supplies sent to England without much fear of the Germans stopping them. The Germans decided do anything they could to break the British blockade, and to stop food/supply shipments from reaching England. This meant stopping the old rules of using submarines. However, without the old rules for warning ships that they were going to be sunk and making sure the non-military people were safe, this tactic angered countries who weren't involved in the war but had their ships sunk. The USA was one such country...
