Which did not help push the United States into World War I?
B. Massice loans from America to Germany.





Not A because America did lots of trade with Britain and France


Not C because the Zimmerman telegram (from Germany to Mexico saying that if Mexico helped Germany they could regain land lost in the American-Mexican war) angered many Americans


Not D because lots of stories were coming from Britain about the terrible things that the Germans were doing. American ships were also being blown up by German u-boats.
Reply:I say old chap!?!


One could safely say the both C and D were elements of


America%26#039;s entry, finally, into World War One.


I would like for you to tell me more about B, Massive loans from America to Germany? Who was doing the loaning? Was it govt. to govt. or individual Germans in America to


the business counterparts in Germany?


A. Would logically have a bit of influence on the American


business community and the power they wielded in the


political decisions about going to war against Germany


On the other hand the munitions makers in America would


like us to keep out of the war because even our slight


incursion could throw the even balance for the stalemate


that was the Western Front in 1917-1918, out of balance and might have brought the War to an end.
