Why did USA entered WWI ?

>>815157
because the germans were being obnoxious pricks.

Krauts wouldn't stop killing American sailors, krauts tried getting spics to invade us (lel), krauts wouldn't buy our shit, in that order
>>
Jews forced the Japanese navy to attack the civilian liner Lusitania, thus propelling America to seal Germany's fate to set the stage for the second war in which the Jew was finally able to achieve the genocide that would allow them to fully control the West.

The short answer is the United States wanted to prevent Germany supremacy in Europe. The United States helped the British and French maintain their states and prevent a massive German Empire which could then bully the Americans.

Ignore all the other posters in this thread. They all have the wrong idea. The real reason we went to war is complex and it can't be narrowed down to one factor. However, the biggest influence on our decision was the amount of money we had lended to the Allies. We needed to get our money back. German attacks on American shipping, the Zimmerman telegram, and worries about German imperial power all helped shift opinion in favor of the war.

Why, because someone is being mocked for their warped worldview that doesn't make any sense?

It's all about power... U.S.A saw their chance to crush the Axis and improve their own standing on the world scene. They saw the Reich was faltering and they knew Stalin would conquer literally everything if they didn't stop him. So as the Reich fell it was a scramble to seize control of the area that was now up for grabs. U.S.A jumped in at just the right time and managed to secure most of Europe. A few weeks of delays by the G.I:s and maybe all of Europe would be part of U.S.S.R today. Crazy thought.

WW1 just proved that wars are created by special intrests. There was no reason for WW1 or for the US to enter WW1.

Excused

America loaned England and France massive amounts of money to buy American goods with.

America entered into the war to make sure they won and paid back their loans.

Other than, you know, how unrestricted submarine warfare harmed U.S. trade or the ideological imperative to support democracies over autocracies.

Well, the US was seen as a tyrannical regime ever since the American Civil War, where the North had subjugated the peaceful South because of slave's rights to secede. They had also subjugated Hawaii after a brutal war with the Spanish.

To restore the image of a justice loving country, America went to war with the supposedly evil Germany that had massacred civilians in Holland and were the first to use poison gas at Verdun.

Culmination of these OP.
Economic self interest, poor decisions made by Germans, and nationalistic journalism.

Bernard Baruch, Jacob Schiff and friends wanted us to go. That is literally the only reason.
