Answer:

Japan knew that the war was inevitable with the formidable U.S. Eventually, they would be pulled in by other allies. Therefore, they decided that the best option would be to attack U.S. ships with the element of surprise. Japan also saw other territories (islands) that could supply amounts of oil and rubber. They wanted to make sure that they could secure these islands so that they could advance their technologies.

Hope that helps.
