The destruction of the USS Maine in Havana (on 1898-02-15, so today's rally was on the 105th anniversary) helped start the Spanish-American War in 1898 when it was immediately alleged the USS Maine had been attacked, and the US press whipped up public support for war. It was later determined that the explosion was probably due to an accident on board the ship rather than an attack.
