Answer: It meant a paradoxal situation because the proper foundation of the USA was an anti-imperialist and anti-colonial act. Foundation of the USA was an emancipation against British imperialism. But already in 1840s USA started practicing imperialist policy toward Mexico (Texas) and Central America. It was a paradox. Spanish American war was sort of a culmination of this kind of policy.

Explanation: One of the explanations is a Social Darwinism which was very fashionable at that time and its perspective was applied not only to societies and races but also to history. According to this perspective Latin nations were decadent and condemned to extinction. Such a view seemed to be confirmed by Franco-Prussian war (example). The same perspective followed Americans (Theodor Roosevelt).

Frank Palko thought the Fifth Amendment ban on double jeopardy applied to his case because he was tried for first degree murder.
amm1812

Answer:

he was tried twice for the same crime.

Explanation:

Double jeopardy clause occurs when a person is put on trial for an offense of which he has already been put on trial before. United States Constitution, states that no <em><u>"person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb..."</u></em>

This can only apply if the accused has already gotten a valid acquittal from a law court or conviction within the same jurisdiction. If this occurs, then the government or prosecutor cannot retry the accused/defendant.

Therefore, Frank Palko believed that double jeopardy would apply in his case because he was tried twice for the same crime.
