I was thinking abou the history of war and false flags, so I got interested in reviewing the Lusitania. AFter my review, I've essentially decided the sinking of the L was not a specific false flag like Maine, Liberty, or Tonkin. Some dsiagree, but that's what I've found.

What IS of interest is exactly how the media acted as a complete propaganda tool of the American Gov't for all of WW1. All the time Wilson "kept us out of the war", the media followed suit. But as soon as policy changed, the media's opin changed as well. This is important because it proves the long continuous history of the media's use as a propanagnda machine.

Here's a link to old NY Times papers during WW2 and a short blurb about this.
