If I remember my history, the final straw that led to the Japanese attacking Pearl Harbor and bringing the U.S. into WWII in the Pacific was the U.S. Oil embargo of Japan.
The U.S. is now urging a full out oil embargo of North Korea.
Such fun times, ya know?

The United States said Thursday that North Korea has already exceeded the annual cap allowed for oil imports, and asked the United Nations to order an immediate halt to all transfers of oil to the country.
The request underscores the U.S. determination to keep squeezing North Korea through existing economic sanctions to get Pyongyang to give up its nuclear weapons that threaten the United States. Although tensions have eased up since President Trump met North Korean leader Kim Jong Un in Singapore last month, talks on denuclearization have hit a rocky spot since then.
