Message: Entry: The Scapegoating of Churchill? Link: http://www.takimag.com/sniperstower/article/the_scapegoating_of_churchill#27939 Post contents: Reg Stocking, Why am I "sadly" wrong instead of just being, well, wrong? Churchill as head of the Admiralty pulled naval escort from the Lusitania once a distance from North America despite knowledge that newspapers had advertised its cargo as including arms for the British. The Germans had warned that it might be a target because it was engaging in transporting war material beside passengers, including several hundred Americans. A back door way to get America into the war. An example for later stagecraft at Pearl Harbor? Sent at: 2009 01 09
