Since World War I, people have said that the Lusitania sinking was a false flag operation, an inside job.

Now, some false flag theories allege that a government attacked themselves, but more commonly, they suggest the government knew an attack was coming and let it happen because it furthered their political goals.

Usually, the goal is to go to war.

But in the case of the Lusitania attack, it didn't just tip the US into war, it completely overturned the naval status quo.

The global outrage at the Lusitania's sinking forced Kaiser Wilhelm to pause Germany's U-boat operations.

This secured the safety of Britain's international shipping lanes.

Almost overnight, they regained the supply chain the Germans had been cutting off.

Yes, they lost the Lusitania, but they gained much more.

And if that doesn't feel planned, well, just wait until I tell you who is in charge of Room 40.

Winston Churchill

Before he was prime minister, Churchill was first Lord of the Admiralty, the top naval official in the UK.

And unlike other top brass, he deeply involved himself in the nitty gritty, especially with room 40.

Churchill personally monitored U-boat locations.

His staff sent him daily reports.

And Churchill was on record saying he wanted to make the US join the war.

The week before the Lusitania sank, he literally put it in writing, quote, it is most important to attract neutral shipping to our shores in the hopes especially of embroiling the United States with Germany.

by neutral shipping, he meant boats from countries that weren't yet embroiled in the war.

Churchill knew the Germans were trigger-happy, and actually hoped they'd accidentally hit an American ship after mistaking it for a French or British vessel.

This would force America to retaliate and declare war.

I mean, so basically he admitted to setting the stage for the Lusitania disaster, if nothing else.
