Why did U.S. participation in the Iran-Contra Affair become a scandal?

History
1 answer:
erica [24]3 years ago

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Soon after taking control of Congress, the Democrats passed the Boland Amendment, which restricted the activities of the CIA and the Department of Defense in foreign conflicts.

The Amendment was specifically aimed at Nicaragua, where anti-communist Contras were battling the communist Sandinista government.

Reagan had described the Contras as "the moral equivalent of the Founding Fathers." But much of their funding, to that point, had come via Nicaragua's cocaine trade, hence Congress' decision to pass the Boland Agreement.

Still, the president instructed his National Security Advisor, Robert McFarlane, to find a way to assist the drug-dealing Contras, regardless of the cost-political or otherwise.

What part dd slavery play in the early settlement of the new world
shusha [124]

Answer:

Although slavery is a horrible thing, the world we know today would not be the same without it in our past. The slaves raked in most of the economy by harvesting crops, mining, and much more. They did the work nobody wanted to do.

I hope this helped!
