Answer:

D) needs to prevent German U-boats from doing future harm.

Step-by-step explanation:

This cartoon suggests that the United States needs to prevent German U-boats from doing further harm . Unrestricted submarine warfare was one of many causes of American involvement in World War I. The picture alludes to the torpedoing of many ships in the Atlantic Ocean (most notably the Lusitania) by German U-boats.

The correct answer is D) needs to prevent German U-boats from doing future harm.

The picture shown suggests that the United States needs to prevent German U-boats from doing future harm.

The cartoon is referring to the sinking of the U.S. boat Lusitania that was attacked by the Germans in World War 1.

On May 7, 195, a German U-boat attacked the U.S. boat Lusitania and sank it. Nearly 1,100 people died in the incident. That was one of the reasons why the United States entered World War 1. That is why the cartoon is representing, that the United States needed to prevent German U-boats from doing future harm.
