Japanese Imperialism. They had invaded raped, murdered and subjugated Korea, Manchuria, China, Indo-China, and Burma. The USA sanctioned oil and moved it's fleet from the US coast to Pearl Harbor in an attempt to deter the Japanese. They intended to conquer the entire Pacific rim and East Asia including the Philippine's and parts of Australia and didn't want the US to interfere. Blaming the sanctions as the cause of the attack is like blaming the spoon for making you fat.
