How did the US oil embargo against Japan ultimately force the decision for Japan to attack the US?
The U.S. oil embargo against Japan in 1941 severely restricted Japan’s access to vital oil supplies, threatening its military expansion in Asia and its resource-dependent economy. Faced with dwindling oil reserves and the need to secure resources in Southeast Asia, Japanese leaders concluded that a military strike against the U.S. was necessary to eliminate American opposition and secure access to these resources. This strategic decision culminated in the attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, as Japan aimed to incapacitate the U.S. Pacific Fleet and buy time to consolidate its gains. Ultimately, the embargo created a sense of urgency that propelled Japan toward war.
