What justification did the war hawks NOT use for declaring war against Britain?

Question

Of the following, the only argument not put forward by the war hawks as a justification for a declaration of war against Britain was that
a. the British armed Indians and incited them to raid frontier settlement.
b. British impressment policies were an affront to American nationalism.
c. Britain's commercial restrictions had come close to destroying America's profitable New England shipping business.
d. British Canada and Spanish Florida were attractive and easily obtainable prizes of war.
e. the orders in council stopped the flow of Western farm products to Europe.

Answer 1

i think the answer would be b.

Answer 2

I know that a catch cry was "no taxation without representation" and hence the Boston Tea Party. I also know that British policies influenced the money American businesses could make. Both these would indicate that c was used, but I am not sure.
d was not a goal for some time after so, at a guess, I would suggest this alternative.

Answer 3

e. the orders in council stopped the flow of Western farm products to Europe.


Not sure about this. I don't think the "Canada being attractive" was ever put forward as an official reason on the international stage, but it was certainly there.

Answer 4

Germany sought to invade France via neutral Belgium, it was that violation of neutrality that led to Britain declaring war on Germany.
