IIRC - The U.S. justification for Declaring War on Germany in 1917 was the 'Zimmerman Note'.
This was a (detected) German Diplomatic effort to entice Mexico to perform some border disturbances along the U.S. Border.

BTW - In 1916, Germany made efforts to sneak obsolete arms into Ireland. Some got through and were used in the 'Easter Uprising'.

WW1 Germany had some schemes afoot .... Lenin .... Russia!
