Pearl Harbor December 7, 1941 Do Now P. 706 Turning Points Activity: Japan Attacks Pearl Harbor

After Adolf Hitler's invasion of Poland in September 1939, the United States began to supply England and other allies with as much material as possible. Yet it continued to sell oil and scrap iron to Japan, despite that country's aggressions in China and elsewhere in the Far East. American shipments destined to help the Allies were lost to German submarine warfare, but material destined for Japan arrives safely.
