France for $750 million. “In all, the total amount of the loans to these allied countries amounted
to $3 billion, plus another $6 billion for exports.”

Throughout the whole affair, President
Wilson's Secretary of States, William Jennings Bryan, protested constantly, he vary astutely
stated: “Money is the worst of all contraband.”

American Men Die Because of American Loans
America’s entry into the war was not because Germany posed any threat to the United
States or to the world, it was for financial reasons. Britain and France were not fairing well in the
war. There were concerns among the financial elite in the US that the Allies might loose the war
or the Allies might negotiate peace under unfavorable conditions. Either of these could result in
the Allies not being able to repay their loans. A confidential letter sent to President Woodrow
Wilson by Walter Hines Page, American Ambassador to Great Britain, on March 5, 1917,

Unbelievably, more than 100,000 young Americans gave their lives to protect the investments of
America’s financial elite.
President Wilson Conspires To Enter WW I
As the saying goes “the devil is in the details.” Many authors have written of the
American conspiracy that resulted in the United States entry into WW I but Colin Simpson
provides astounding detail in his book The Lusitania. After reviewing this book the Los Angeles
Times wrote:
The Lusitania proves beyond a reasonable doubt that the British
government connived at the sinking of the passenger ship in order to lure America
into World War I. The Germans, whose torpedo struck the liner, were the
unwitting accomplices or victims of a plot probably concocted by Winston
Churchill.

The Los Angeles Times was correct but they failed to state that President Wilson and the
executive branch of the US government were both complicit in the British actions and diligently
