No.
It took the destruction of a large part of the Pacific Naval Fleet.
Again and again the US only helps others when it can kill two birds with one stone and also help its own objectives.
To be fair this is true of most countries but please don't be fooled that the US is this magnificent country that helps the world out without doing something for itself.

Excuse me?
Just off the top of my head:
WWI?
Bosnia?
Somalia?
Not to mention the tons of war material we were sending the British before Dec. 7 1941?
