How did opinions differ over how to end the institution of slavery?

1 answer:

3 0

In the Constitution, slave importation was actually set to end in the early 1800s. Many had hoped this would end the practice as no more slaves could be brought in. However, there was nothing about the children of slaves. The next idea was to contain the practice of slavery. This was done thru different actions like the Missouri Compromise of 1820, the Compromise of 1850, and the Wilmot Proviso. While all of these were going on there were also people who wanted the entire practice completely banned and labeled illegal.

To what extent has the United States demonstrated a consistent foreign policy in the Middle-East from the 1980s to the present?

vredina [299]

Answer:

The United States has mainly had two consistent policies in the Middle-East from the 1980s to the present:

Supporting Israel: Israel is America's main ally in the region, and both Democrats and Republicans support Israel. The U.S. provides military contributions to that country, which is often in conflict with its neighbors. These contributions are crucial for Israel continuos military victories.
Supporting Saudi Arabia instead of Iran: since the founding of the Islamic Iranian Republic, The United States has been a enemy of Iran and viceversa, and Iran is at the same time a geopolitical enemy of Israel and Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia and Iran are in fact, often at war in other countries (proxy wars), and the U.S. always supports the former.
