Na, just because divers have brought ub around 15000 cartridges of .303 ammunition, the British standard ammunition in WWI, or the Germans bought advertising space to warn Americans to board the Lusitania, or the British Navy refused to protect the Lusitania, or she travelled extra slow to “conserve coal”…
Move along citizens, nothing to see here.
Anyhow, that shitz dont matter, he did not stand in the way of the auto industry, does destroying American jobs that he could have easily saved.

Let me get this straight:
The fact that the Lusitania carried munitions and that the Germans had declared unrestricted Uboat warfare proves Woodrow Wilson sacrificed the vessel as a casus belli? Further evidence includes the British Navy’s failure to prevent the attack(before effective depth charges existed and before radar was in use)? Lastly, a coal-fired steam vessel travelling across the Atlantic went slowly to preserve fuel? Sounds conclusive to me.[/quote]
In and of themselves, all of those would not be enough, all of them together is somewhat suspicious.
Especially since quite a lot of ammunition was smuggled on board of civilian American ships and the US had been called out on it amd had been warned that this specific ship would be targeted.

Yes, I can just imagine the communications between the British Foreign Office and the White House:
US: Look, we really want to join in the trench warfare going on over there and ideas?
Britain: Why don’t we allow one of your trans-Atlantic liners to get sunk by the Germans then you could have an excuse for joining us old man?
US: Great idea! How shall we arrange the conspiracy in such a manner as to fool the entire world?
Britain: Just put some munitions on board as usual and we’ll handle the rest. Remember to tell our suicide agent Captain Turner to go slowly. Jolly good chap he is for agreeing to die like this for us!

Really?
In light of American history?
One pretext after another to start a war and this is highly implausible?
An advertisement that warned Americans to board the ship yet it was loaded with ammunition anyway, two ships sunk in the area the Lusitania was sunk and Churchill provided no destroyer escorts though they were readily available and instead of going full speed the ship was went as slow as possible and received no warning whatsoever?
And then of course all the propaganda after it was sunk, all innocent mistakes, I am sure, the British could not possibly know that they were expecting 4 million rounds of ammunition.

-
The rape of Belgium, the militant nature of Germany under the Kaiser, the enormous casualties and the consequences of an allied defeat were some of the reasons the US entered the war.
-
As in early to mid WWII Britain had a serious shortage of destroyers.
-
The Admiralty sent a warning to the Lusitania advising her to ‘zig zag’(continually change course) in an attempt to evade Uboats.
-
As in WWII the US were providing military aid to Britain and trying to keep it covert for obvious reasons.
-
The US didn’t enter the war until 2 years after the Lusitania sinking.
Can I just ask: Do you believe the US ‘fabricated’ 9/11 as well? Just curious as to how advanced your illness is.
