Didn’t the Lusitania have armaments on board?

When Britain imposed their naval blockade of Germany, they should have expected the Germans to attack shipping to Britain with U-Boats.

We should have made it clear to Britain that we wouldn’t risk our ships to supply them until they lifted their blockade of Germany.

That’s what a real neutral would do.
