The correct response is:
**They had not wanted to get involved maintaining an isolationist view following World War I.**
Before the attack on Pearl Harbor, many Americans largely held an isolationist perspective, stemming from the desire to avoid involvement in another foreign conflict after the experiences of World War I. This sentiment persisted until the attack prompted a dramatic shift in public opinion toward supporting war against the Axis powers.
