Describe the United States response before and during the war to the Holocaust
SIZIF [17.4K]

When World War II began in September 1939, most Americans hoped the United States would remain neutral. Over the next two years, amid ongoing debates between those who wanted the United States to stay out of war and focus on the defense of the Western Hemisphere (isolationists) and those who favored proactively assisting Great Britain, even if it meant entering the war (interventionists), the United States slowly began to support the Allied powers. Japan’s attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, ended this debate. The United States quickly declared war on Japan, and Germany soon responded by declaring war on the United States.

The United States joined the Allies’ fight against the Axis powers (Germany, Italy, and Japan) in World War II to defend democracy, not to rescue Jewish victims of the Nazi regime. In January 1944, the US government created the War Refugee Board, charged with trying to rescue and provide relief for Jews and other minorities who were targeted by the Nazis. During the final year of the war, US rescue efforts saved tens of thousands of lives. In the spring of 1945, Allied forces, including millions of American soldiers defeated Nazi Germany and its Axis collaborators, ending the Holocaust.

How did the spanish civil war happen and what was the impact?​
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

The Spanish Civil War (1936–39) was the bloodiest conflict western Europe had experienced since the end of World War I in 1918. It was the breeding ground for mass atrocities. About 200,000 people died as the result of systematic killings, mob violence, torture, or other brutalities. The outcome of the Spanish Civil War altered the balance of power in Europe, tested the military power of Germany and Italy, and pushed ER "away from the peace movement and into the ranks of the anti-fascists" fighting for democracy.

What was US fighting to win and what was lost in Vietnam? (Vietnam War)
saul85 [17]

The United States joined in on the Vietnam War because they were scared of the spread of communism.

The Vietnam War was originally fought by North Vietnam, who were communists, and Southern Vietnam. The United States' prime goal was to stop the spread of communism, as North Vietnam wanted worldwide communism.

The United States ended up losing the war. They lost numerous soldiers and their reputation plummeted. The war went on for around 20 years, but the United States and Vietnam agreed on a cease-fire that properly ended the war.
