The Iran-Contra Affair, Irangate.
It all began in January 1986, when the administration approved Robert McFarlane's plan to employ Michael Ledeen as an intermediary, instead of Israel, to sell arms to Iran in exchange for the release of hostages. The profits would be used for the Contra of Nicaragua. At the end of 1986, a political scandal erupted in Washington. Officers of President Ronald Reagan's high command were exposed for having secretly violated the foreign and domestic policy of the United States. US support for the anti-communist Contras in Nicaragua was revealed to the public when the Nicaraguan Sandinista government brought down an American aircraft carrying supplies on October 5 and captured one of the crew members the next day

The correct answer is <span>involved the use of profits from Iranian arms sales to support the Contras

It was a scandal during Regan but the biggest problem was that it sold weapons to Iran which was on an arms embargo which the US didn't care about. The funds gotten were used to fund Contra fighters in Nicaragua which was also problematic.</span>

Which of the following was not a source of entertainment during the 1930’s?
ollegr [7]

Answer: C.Radio

Explanation:

Working alongside film was the most popular form of entertainment in the 1930s in America. The genres that were the most popular in that decade are comedy. This is because the country was in a significant economic crisis, and people were thus trying to divert their thoughts from the gloomy daily routine. As early as the early 1930s, over 40% of Americans owned radios, increasing that percentage year by year.

What benefits do Mexico, Canada, and the United States gain by maintaining a trade agreement among the three nations
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

Quadrupled Trade

Lowered Prices

Increased Economic Growth

Created Jobs

Increased Foreign Direct Investment

Reduced Government Spending

Explanation:

Between the United States, Canada, and Mexico, NAFTA covered the largest area under a free trade agreement. One of the positive effects of NAFTA was increased trade, economic output, foreign investment, and better consumer prices. NAFTA went into effect under the Clinton administration in 1994. The purpose of the deal was to boost trade within North America between Canada, the United States, and Mexico. It also aimed to get rid of trade barriers between the three parties, as well as most taxes and tariffs on goods imported and exported by each.Canada has seen the strongest gains among the three NAFTA countries, though, again, it is difficult to attribute direct causation, particularly given that Canada and the United States had a free-trade deal that predated NAFTA.
