I am no history professor, though what caused the bombing is quite simply the enemies' desire to destroy the number one Armada on the planet and they also thought that with a severe enough blow, they could keep America out of the war. Japanese Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto said, after the attack on Pearl Harbor, "I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve."

Japan began their conflict with the U.S. when the U.S. cut off trade to them for their refusal to cease their invasion of china. With only about nine months worth of supplies left to fuel their war effort, the japanese demanded control of the phillipines to get their minerals, fuels, rubber, etc. When the U.S. refused, american analysts assumed they would take it by force and stepped up their pacific fleet. What they did not realize was that carriers with roughly 240 torpedo bombers and fighters was creeping ever so closer to the Hawaiian islands. On December 7, 1941 a radar operator noticed a massive concentration of enemy aircraft but it was too late. The aftermath is obvious and the next day the phillipines fell to japanese invasion, launching a dormant giant into the second great war. So basically attacked because supplies were limited unless the japanese took pacific islands at their leisure which the united states was fully against.
