    I believe that Roosevelt needed a way to get into the war against Germany. The American people were not so enthusiastic about getting involved in another European war, so forcing Japan into attacking the US was a back door way for FDR to get what he wanted.

    Ruthless and cunning Roosevelt and crew knew that the British Empire was doomed, and that if Britain were to be enticed into a war they couldn't win without the US, the US would inherit the role of the British Empire and more. That was the real game.
