I'll be glad to check your answer.

Answered by Ms. Sue
C is correct.
Answered by Reed
No, it is not. The Germans USED submarines to attack ships.
Answered by Ms. Sue
You're right, Reed. German submarines attacked American ships.

I wonder where this question comes from.

Answered by Reed
I dunno. But the final straw was when Germany enlisted Mexico as an ally. Attacks on American shipping had been going on for two years at least, but when Germany enlisted our neighbor, Wilson had no choice...
Answered by Iggy
So... huh
Answered by Ms. Sue
What we're saying is that none of these answers is correct. Please ask your teacher for clarification.
Answered by Reed
Huh? The final action by Germany to force the United States' entry into World War I was to enlist Mexico a an ally to attack the U.S. here at home and distract us from involvement in the European war. "The last straw" = "final action."
Answered by Reed
It didn't work out for the Kaiser, but he tried.
Answered by Reed
I think the word "ally" in the question is misleading. Mexico was not OUR ally, but, briefly, an ally of Germany.
