Attack on Pearl Harbor Pictures Events leading up to December 7, 1941 In 1931 Japan invaded Manchuria causing a strain on the Japanese-American relationship. In 1937 Japan attacked China. The American Congress at the time was in favor of a policy of isolationism. The isolationist wanted America to stay out of the growing conflicts between other nations. American President, Franklin D. Roosevelt was concerned about the growing power and ambitions of Japan. In May of 1940, Roosevelt transferred the naval headquarters from California to Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. In 1941, Japan invaded French Indo-China. In response, the United States froze all Japanese assets in the United States and cut off oil and steel shipments to Japan. The Japanese viewed these actions by the United States as nearly an act of war. The Japanese were heavily dependant on United States for these natural resources and would not be able to continue their expansionist ideas without these resources.
