I think the untied states got involed in world war I because,of sinking the boats and the Zimmerman note.For instance the Zimmerman note was telling Mexico and Japan to join the war. This mean war for Germany.

I think they needed USA because there were too many soilders there to take over their territory. For instance, it was a matter of time before they would try to take over american. Additionally, USA didn't want to get involved because there would be a confusion between US and who they were going against. furthermore, I believe they wanted USA to be involved because they wanted USA to help them defeat who they were going against. Clearly, i believe the USA leaders were more smarter their leaders were.

I think The USA got involved in WWI because Germany sanked the USA's passenger ship. For instance, in the 1915's Germany sanked Lusitania without a warning, killing over 120 Americans. The USA didn't do anything, but when they Sank Sussex a year later, American citizens were outraged. Additionally, President Wilson sent a warning to the Germans, the Germans stopped sanking ships without warning but started againafter announcing the use of unrestricted submarine warfare. Furthermore, when the USA found the Zimmerman's note, they declared war on Germany. Clearly, The USA got involved in WWI because German's were taking away their neutral use of sea.

I think, the USA got involve because they like to help people and make sure they have people to help them when they fall. For instance, they are helping iraq because they see they need help. Additionally, they want to make everybody feel better and safe in there own country. Futhermore, the USA needs to stop helping eveybody when there are alot of people who needs lots of help. Clearly, they like minding other peoples business.

I Think The United States Got Involved In WWI Because The Central Powers Didn't Accept Them Being Neutral .

For Instance, German Subs And U-Boat's Sank Alot Of American Ships . Some With Over 100 People Aboard.

Additionally, They Wanted Mexico To Attack America .

Furthermore, Forcing America To Take Action And Stand Up For Themselves .

Clearly, USA Got Involved In WWI Because The Central Powers Didn't Accept Them As Being A Neutral Country In The War .

I think the USA got involed with world war 1 because the central power wanted them to pick a side. For instance, Germany subs and U-boats sunk alot of the American ships.With people still on them. Additionally, Germany wanted Mexico to attack the US. Futhermore, this lead to America to take a stand and fight back. Cleary, this is why I think USA got involved with wwI.

I think that americans got involved in world war one because i was in there radius. For instance posters and media were advertising the war . Additionally Germany wanted Mexico to attack the U.S. Furthermore Germany was seen by most Americans as a dangerous monarchy. Clearly that is why i think the u.s got involved in world war one.

The USA get involved in WW1 because the Germany sank the USA passenger ship. For instance the Germany sank the Lusitania without a warning and they killed over 100 people. The USA didn't do anything about that, but when they sank the Sussex that when they had to take action into their hands and defend their selves from the enemy. Addition, President Wilson send a warning to the German to stopped, when they stop a few days or months later they announced unrestricted submarine warfare. Furthermore, From that action the USA had to get involve which the war from that action the Germans against the USA. Clearly, These are the reason why the USA got involve the WW1 in the first place.

Mr. Hostetter said...

Some excellent comments so far guys. Jessica- very well done.

At the start of WWI the United States wanted to remain neutral and isolated. However, after the continued provocations from Germany. The Zimmerman note and unrestricted submarine warfare were the two main events that drew the USA in to war.

See you all tomorrow -

I think the u.s.a got involved in the war because of revenge and simple male bravado.
For instance,they probabley got tired of thinking that the U.S.A can be pushed around like a little kid.
Additionally,They had two of there ships sank by germany.
Furthermore,they also had alot of money and soldiers.
Clearly, they entered wwI because they wanted revenge and because of their male bravado.

The us got invovled in WW1 because of the things them other countrys was doing to us.For instance, after the sinking of the paasenger liner SS lusitania, Germany adopted restricted submarine warfare. But early in 1917 germany again began attacking unarmed ships, this time american cargo boats, oading the us into the war. Aditionally, German u-boats were positioning to cut off shipping to and from britain, in an british intercepted, decoded, and turned over to president wilson a tela gram germany had sent to its ambassador arthur zimmermann,urged the german officials in mexico to persuade the mexican government into war with the united states- in order to reconquer lost territory in texas, new mexico and arizona.furthermore, one month later, on april 6, 1917, the u.s congress declared war on germany after president wilson had asserted that" the world must be made safe for democracy. Clearly, they entered WW1 because of the problems i told you .

I think that USA got involved in WWI because some othe the countries were having great advantages. There wasa matter of time that USA was in the way to total distruction. So before anybody could take them down they decided to stand up to anyone that was bigger and better that them and stronger. For instance they were sinking boats. Additionally Zimmerman was telling other people to join the war so USA thought that it was not fair so it was time for them to join in also. Clearly United States was just standing up for something that was coming to them.
