What was claimed

Titanic was not a tragedy but a deliberate mass execution by Rothschilds, J.P. Morgan and elites to kill three billionaire opponents of the Federal Reserve (Astor, Guggenheim, Straus) so they could pass the Act and create the slave financial system; ship deliberately sped into iceberg field with insufficient lifeboats

Our verdict

Inaccurate

There is no evidence of deliberate sabotage or an organized assassination plot. Fact-checkers identify the sinking as an accident caused by an iceberg collision and contributing operational failures. The three men did die in the Titanic disaster, but reliable fact-checking found no evidence that they opposed Morgan’s banking plans or were targeted for that reason.
