Answer:
The Lend Lease Act was initiated to, as the poster Uncle Sam holds, to support the US's allies in their war effort. "Short of War" is used to describe that the US economically was already in the war, as they provided loans, created military hardware and equipments, and heavily invested in their allies. The only thing holding them out was the public opinion, and the investment of American lives nonvoluntarily. The left side is used to suggest the public opinion, and how there were sentiments on both sides for the argument. In essence, Uncle Sam is trying to appease both sides in supporting logistically the Allies, while not forcing US men into the warfront.

Explanation:
Known as the Cradle of Civilization, the Fertile Crescent is regarded as the birthplace of agriculture, urbanization, writing, trade, science, history and organized religion and was first populated c. 10,000 BCE when agriculture and the domestication of animals began in the region. By 9,000 BCE the cultivation of wild grains and cereals was wide-spread and, by 5000 BCE, irrigation of agricultural crops was fully developed. By 4500 BCE the cultivation of wool-bearing sheep was practiced widely.
The geography and climate of the region were conducive to agriculture and hunter-gatherer societies shifted to sedentary communities in the area as they were able to support themselves from the land. The climate was semi-arid but the humidity, and proximity of the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers (and, further south, the Nile), encouraged the cultivation of crops. Rural communities developed along with technological advances in agriculture and, once these were established, domestication of animals followed.

Explanation:
The Sedition act was uncharacteristic of the initial thoughts of the forefathers of the United States because it went against the freedom of speech and freedom of press. Although it seemed to be a quick fix to stop dissention in the U.S. with anti war sentiment, it also invalidated the very constitution for which the U.S stood on. There could have been better ways to handle it such as educating the public better on what exactly was happening, and why we might as a country needed to become involved in the war.
