We had no business being in WWI.

It certainly seems to be that way.

Grandpa was a pretty smart guy, in hindsight.

I forget - which side of WWI were the Frankfurt School’s politically correct benefactors in the business of backing?

Wilson's decision to allow the arms trade with the Entente was the ultimate reason the US was drawn into the war. However, Germany's response was disproportionate and ultimately provocative. Unrestricted submarine warfare violated maritime law. Acts of sabotage on US soil were the equivalent of state sponsored terrorism and demanded a response. The US had attacked no Germans on German soil. Promoting an invasion of the US by Mexico, at a time when Villistas were attacking towns on our side of the border was not a wise strategy either.

BTW, regarding the pictures of German prisoners in Hoboken, the camp pictured was just a couple of miles from Black Tom Island, scene of the worse German sabotage attack.
