Write four to five sentences supporting the inference that the British waited until they were sure the telegram would encourage the US to enter the war. Identify at least two pieces of evidence from the passage, and explain how that evidence leads to the inference.

- The british leaders waited for US to be sure of the real situation
- The british leaders wanted US president to declare war to Germany
- The brithish leaders held the Zimmerman telegram so it would not spoil american actions
- The british were intelligent when they sensed there should be a clear action from US army from the beginning.
The evidence from the passage are:
- British government leaders didn't present the Zimmermann telegram to Wilson for a few weeks
- that policy provoked the U.S. government to cut diplomatic relations with Germany in February.
- telegram would tip the balance in favor of the U.S. joining the Allied forces, the British home secretary presented the telegram to President Wilson
That evidence is enough proof to know that british were derermined to help US but that they were not going to act without their allies so that they do not spoil future attacks or actions againts Germany. Its patience was worth it when they gave evidence to US so that they could act in the proper moment
