Yes. That is correct. German U boats were sinking American merchant ships (that was called unrestricted submarine warfare) and the Zimmerman Telegram you were trying to explain. The Zimmerman telegram explained that Mexico attacks America on Germany's side (The Central Powers). If Germany wins, Mexico will get its territory lost to the US (Arizona, New Mexico and Utah.).
