America Must Go To War!!!
Reasons for War
Americans, we must go to war with Germany. They have struck out. They sunk the Lusitania, which killed 1198 people including 128 of our fellow Americans. They established the Sussex Pledge, but later sunk another merchant ship, injuring Americans that were on board. Then they crossed the line. They sent the Zimmerman Telegram to Mexico telling them that if they attacked the US to help Germany win the war, they would get their "lost territory" back. Now we should take action. Declare war on the Fascists!
