A lot depends on why there was no Pearl Harbor  Was it because the U.S. did not embargo oil after the Japanese takeover of French Indochina or was it because the Japanese chose a different course of action?

Yes. FDR would have found a way one way or another to force us into an unnecessary war.

Yes, when the Japanese or Germans (or Italians) would have launched another attack on the U.S. FDR wanted the U.S. to go into WWII--he just wanted a conventient excuse to enter without any criticism, and he found that in Pearl Harbor (which he did not bother to stop despite being informed about an impending attack beforehand).
