Don't sink the Lusitania with women and kids aboard.
What! Still treading the old propaganda line?
It is now known that the Lusitania was carrying munitions onboard
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RMS_Lusitania#Last_voyage_and_sinking
Included in the Lusitania's cargo were 4,200,000 rounds of Remington 0.303 rifle cartridges, 1250 cases of empty 3 inches (76 mm) fragmentation shell cases, and eighteen cases of non-explosive fuses,[52
Only a passenger ship, right? On the way to GB just accidentally, ja?
A dive team from Cork Sub Aqua Club, diving under license, discovered 15,000 rounds of the .303 (7.7×56mmR) caliber rifle ammunition transported on the Lusitania in boxes in the bow section of the ship. The find was photographed but left in situ under the terms of the license.[62] In December 2008, Gregg Bemis discovered a further four million rounds of .303 ammunition and announced plans to commission further dives in 2009 for a full-scale forensic examination of the wreck.[63]
The German Embassy in Washington had issued this warning on 22nd April.[18]
NOTICE!
TRAVELLERS intending to embark on the Atlantic voyage are reminded that a state of war exists between Germany and her allies and Great Britain and her allies; that the zone of war includes the waters adjacent to the British Isles; that, in accordance with formal notice given by the Imperial German Government, vessels flying the flag of Great Britain, or any of her allies, are liable to destruction in those waters and that travellers sailing in the war zone on the ships of Great Britain or her allies do so at their own risk.
IMPERIAL GERMAN EMBASSY,
Washington, D.C. 22nd April 1915
You've got to be kidding!
Did you know that at the same time the Brits and the French had installed a blockade which would be the reason for 600.000 civilian deaths even after the war was over??? That was mass murder!
British propaganda
It was in the interests of the British to keep US passions inflamed, and a fabricated story was circulated that in some regions of Germany, schoolchildren were given a holiday to celebrate the sinking of the Lusitania. This story was so effective that James W. Gerard, the US ambassador to Germany, recounted it in his memoir of his time in Germany, Face to Face with Kaiserism (1918), though without substantiating its validity.[39]
The sinking turned public opinion in many countries against Germany, and was instrumental in bringing the United States into the war.[4]
What an accident!
Gregg Bemis, as well as other people on the team, believe the British Royal Navy deliberately bombed the Lusitania site to "make the wreck as unattractive as possible, to prevent further salvage" and to "prevent divers from going in and finding that there was contraband cargo".
You should better take another look at your "special relationship"!
Still do, for that matter!!
Then why don't you?
How smart was it to invade Poland, bring in GB .. and then the icing on the f.ucking cake.. actually DECLARE WAR on the world's largest economy. You declared war on us not the other way around.
Hitler was a fool but he did what he thought was honor demanded...to show support for the ally Japan...but then he invaded Russia too...breaking a treaty....I dunno what was going on in his brain...sorry!
You always have such pride but in the end you f.uck it up like always.
Always??? What do you mean with always...
Quite to the contrary..we are mostly successful in what we do...to successful for some!
YOU brought us into it.
Crap!
The Lusitania shipped ammunition to Great Britain...already breaching the rules of neutrality...the Germans even gave you a fair warning...you WANTED this reason to get into the brawl...nobody forced you to!
The Brits played you like a fiddle...and laughed at you behind your back at how good and nice they could manipulate you!
Uhhh.. 2 huge wars , 2 huge losses???
Against what? Against what odds?
YOU, the mighty big USofA NEEDED the hordes of F*UCKING STALIN AND TWO NUKES!!!!
make your money, brew your little beer.. and stay the f.ck home.
We want nothing else..and we are good at it! :)
