In July 1941 the United States, after a decade of worsening
economic relations, announced a total embargo against Japan. The
embargo had actually begun in 1940 with a so-called moral embargo
under which U.S. exports of planes and war material to Japan were
barred. In early 1941 Washington squeezed the Tokyo government
further by unofficially tightening exports of petroleum. By
December 1941, over 90 percent of Japan's oil supply was cut off,
as was nearly 70 percent of its overall trade. From contemporary
source documents, this is a detailed look at the U.S.-led embargo
and how it contributed to Japan's decision to attack Pearl Harbor
and declare war on the United States.
