Answer:

<h2>The league believed the war was immoral and undemocratic.</h2>

Historical context/details:

The Anti-Imperialist League was established in 1898.  They viewed the United States' involvement in the Philippines was an act of imperialism.  

The central philosophical argument of the Anti-Imperialist League was that a republican government (such as the United States) cannot be true to itself if it takes over control of territories without the consent of the people in those territories.  In our own country's Declaration of Independence, you'll find these words:  "To secure these rights (life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness), Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed."  If we believe that about our own country, we need to apply the same principle to other countries -- such as the Philippines.   

That was the Anti-Imperialist League's contention.

The high instance of disease spread from Europeans to
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

The high incidence of disease spread from Europeans to

American Indian populations

weakened American Indian tribes significantly,  making them more vulnerable to European invasion.

Explanation:

The population of American Indian tribes was greatly decimated by diseases, especially smallpox and other communicable diseases.  Most of the diseases were brought by the Europeans who had developed immunity to the diseases, and as a result did not suffer from the diseases but were able to spread the diseases whenever they had contact with the native Indian tribes.
