1. General MacArthur had a successful surprise attack launched on the North Korean army at Inchon, which was west of the Korean Peninsula. When he met with Truman face to face at Wake Island, he publicly accused the president of "appeasement" regarding China. Instead of following Truman's orders, MacArthur did things his way. He thought that the Chinese would not join in the war, so he assured Truman that the Chinese army would not take part in the war when the UN forces reach the Yalu River, the border between China and North Korea. MacArthur was so confident in his success that he promised American troops would be home for Christmas.
2. President Truman assigned General MacArthur as leader of the UN troops. Truman's overall objective was to create harmony between North and South Korea as soon as possible. He was concerned of the Chinese army joining in the war in favor of North Korea, but MacArthur assured him that the Chinese would not interfere when they reach the Yalu River; however, he was wrong. Because MacArthur disobeyed the orders, Truman relieved MacArthur of his position.
3 and 4 are based on your own opinions, so I cannot answer that part. Otherwise, hope this helps a little though it is not much.
The Church taught that the Earth was the center of the universe and that the Sun revolved around it. By arguing for a heliocentric (Sun-centered) solar system, Galileo was arguing that the Church was wrong. ...

Answer and Explanation:
1. Robespierre believed that the death penalty was an abusive decision and that it made justice as criminal as the people who committed the crime. He believed that criminals should go through a system of resocialization and not be executed, by men who also had flaws and who were taking God's place in people's lives. However, over time, during the French revolution, Robiespierre came to be in favor of the death penalty for monarchs and their supporters, as they were trying to prevent the freedom of the people. According to Robespierre, a republic is only committed to Republicans, those who are against the republic would adopt tyrannical behaviors and spread terror across society, so it would be necessary for them to be sacrificed in the name of peace, justice and freedom.
2. The tyrannical behavior of the monarchs and the violence of their supporters made Robiespierre change his opinion about the death penalty. He believed that these people were not to be forgiven for trying to limit the population on account of their own interests, exploiting the population in the name of their own wealth and even betraying those they swore to protect and care for.
