TODAY IS ALSO THE CENTENNIAL OF THE SINKING OF THE LUSITANIA

The Lusitania was sunk by a devilish German U-boat.

That's what we are told. That's all we need to know.

The Germans sunk The Lusitania.

But there is much more to this sinking.

Here is what I wrote about The Lusitania in those reports I've been ranting about, which will soon be available on a website.

The start of World War 1 did not go so well for Great Britain. Germany was surprisingly strong, resilient and resourceful, and Great Britain was struggling to raise finance due to fears that it would not win the war. There were even fears that Great Britain would have to seek peace with Germany on German terms. So for Great Britain it was very important that America should join the war on its side as soon as possible. This is when the Zionists began to demand Palestine as payment for them using their influence on American politics to bring America into the war on the side of Great Britain, resulting in The Balfour Declaration.

The Lusitania was registered as an armed auxilliary cruiser but was actually used as a passenger liner. Perhaps as evidence of the anticipation of war, in May 1913 The Lusitania was fitted with deck guns, and passenger accommodation was removed to make space for cargo. Rothschild agent JP Morgan was the sole agent for the British Government for war materials. Morgan was illegally shipping war materials and ammunition in the cargo holds of passenger ships such as The Lusitania, which was actually owned by his shipping rival Cunard and was thus expendable. The Germans were aware that The Lusitania was being used to carry war material, and protested this to the American government without reply. Before The Lusitania set sail from New York on 1st May 1915 the German Embassy in America tried to place adverts in fifty American newspapers warning any potential American passengers on The Lusitania not to sail on her, but the US State Department threatened the papers with court action if the ads were run. As a consequence only one paper published the warning.

On the night of 7th May 1915 First Lord of the Admiralty Winston Churchill knew of the large presence of German U-boats off the coast of Southern Ireland, which was on the route The Lusitania was taking. The Lusitania was supposed to rendezvous with the destroyer Juno who would then escort her through the waters known to be infested with German U-boats, but Juno was recalled, apparently because she was thought unfit for the job. No other escort was sent. Several ships had been sunk in the area during the 24 hours before The Lusitania was hit. So why was The Lusitania ordered to sail at only 75% power, unescorted and in U-boat infested waters?

Churchill left the Admiralty that day to go to France for a holiday. Was Churchill unaware of the German warnings? The Lusitania was attacked and sunk. The British and American media went berserk, condemning Germany for sinking a ship carrying passengers. However, the British and American public were not made aware of its use for illegally supplying arms, thus deliberately risking the lives of any passengers on board. A cover-up followed chaired by Lord Mersey, who later referred to the whole episode as “damned dirty business”. The US Secretary of State William Jennings Bryan wrote a note to President Woodrow Wilson indicating his suspicion of the sinking of The Lusitania
and the way in which the sinking was being used by elements within the British and American governments to go to war. Bryan wrote:

Germany has a right to prevent contraband going to the allies and a ship carrying contraband should not rely upon passengers to protect her from attack - it would be like putting women and children in front of an army.

The passengers on board The Lusitania were being used as a human shield. And if the Germans should sink it then the outrage could be used to drag America into the war. Bryan resigned over this sinking, having become totally disenchanted with the administration of President Woodrow Wilson, who we shall briefly analyse later.

To support the thesis that The Lusitania was allowed to be sunk to provoke outrage in the American public, during the day The Lusitania was attacked a series of conversations took place between King George V, British Foreign Secretary Sir Edward Grey and Colonel Edward Mandel House, who was chief adviser of Woodrow Wilson and who shall be looked at shortly, during which House was asked by Grey, “what will Americans do if the Germans sink an ocean liner with Americans on board?”. House replied that America would be outraged and probably join the war. King George asked House, “Suppose they should sink The Lusitania with Americans on board...?”. This is the same King George who on 29th July 1914 led Kaiser Wilhelm II to believe that Great Britain would not become involved in any war on the continent.

Although this sordid episode did not immediately convince the American public that they should join the war, the sinking of The Lusitania gave the war party in America a great deal of support and momentum, and turned public opinion in their favour.

Since I wrote that in 2013 another damning piece of evidence has come to light: besides telling Kaiser Wilhelm II that Great Britain would not join in any war, King George, at the same time, was also ordering Sir Edward Grey to get Great Britain into the war.

So besides tricking Germany into invading Belgium, thus giving Sir Edward Grey the perfect opportunity to cite the 1839 Treaty of London which Great Britain did not need to enforce, King George V, the current Queen's Grandfather, also engineered the sinking of The Lusitania to get the USA into the war!!
