The Zimmermann Note was considered a reliable source because it was an official communication from German Foreign Minister Arthur Zimmermann to the German ambassador in Mexico, outlining a proposal for a military alliance between Germany and Mexico against the United States during World War I. The note was intercepted and decrypted by British intelligence, adding to its credibility. Its authenticity was confirmed when the British shared it with the U.S. government, leading to public outrage and contributing to America's decision to enter the war. The note's formal diplomatic nature and the context of its interception bolstered its reliability as a source.
