Answer: c. Johnson’s lawyers assured moderate Republicans that he would behave for the rest of his term, so several voted to acquit him
Explanation:
The votes of about seven moderate Republicans in addition to 12 Democrats Senators gave an edge to President Johnson in what many scholars have termed a weak case for impeachment who was voted guilty by 35 Senators.
The reason why he was acquitted despite the charges against him for impeachment was that the votes that convicted him fell short of a two-thirds majority.
Before the birth of the Soviet Union, as such, after the Russian Revolution of 1917, the United States, and the country that was always known as Russia, had friendly relations that were reinforced through their alliance prior to the Revolution. From 1917 onward, because of the coming into power of Communism, a new system of government that totally opposed the U.S belief in democracy, the right to personal property and the free market, resentment and suspicion grew between the two nations. However, after WWI and during WWII, both the U.S and Russia were forced by need and circumstances to collaborate with each other, especially in WWII. The problem arose because of the tug-of-war that ensued between the two nations, who initally began competing with each other to prove to the world which system of government was the correct one. This confrontation became absolutely evident before the end of WWII, on July 16, 1945, with the release of the nuclear bomb on the towns of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The reason? Because with the appearance of this power on the hands of the U.S, the now named Soviet Union lost the race to become the only superpower in the globe. In the end, that was the issue that forced enmity between the two nations; the differences of system of government and the thirst to prove their superiority over the other by becoming the greatest superpower.
After WWII, and especially after the release of the nuclear bomb, the race for the upper hand between the U.S and USSR became almost frantic. Constant conflicts led into what is historically known as the Cold War (1947-1991) and this period of history became riddled with fear. Division in the world also took place. There were the block of nations that supported the U.S and those that supported the USSR, especially Communism. Events as serious as espionage cases between the two countries, the building of the Berlin Wall, which literally tore the East from the West (Communism vs Capitalism and Democracy), conflicts within the nations themselves over supposed infiltration of either system to the other, the Korean and Vietnam War, the Chinese Revolution and the serious confrontation that took place at the Bay of Pigs (1961), in Cuba, when Fidel Castro took control of the country and installed a Communist government under the support of the USSR, who also wished to settle a military base with nuclear missiles in the Cuban nation, which led to the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962 and almost to a third world war, are just a few of the examples that come to show how serious the race between these two powerful nations became and the dire consequences it had on the entire planet.
Answer:
Operation Rolling Thunder was the codename for an American bombing campaign during the Vietnam War. U.S. military aircraft attacked targets throughout North Vietnam from March 1965 to October 1968.
Explanation:
Was Operation Rolling Thunder a Failure?
Although North Vietnam did not have much of an air force, its leaders managed to mount an effective defense against the bombing raids. With assistance from China and the Soviet Union, the North Vietnamese constructed a sophisticated air-defense system.
Using surface-to-air missiles and radar-controlled anti-aircraft artillery, the North Vietnamese shot down hundreds of American planes over the course of the bombing campaign. As a result, pilots and aircraft weapon systems operators accounted for the majority of the American prisoners of war who were captured and held by North Vietnam.
North Vietnamese leaders also took a number of other steps to reduce the impact of the American bombing raids. They constructed networks of bombproof tunnels and shelters, and dispatched crews by night to rebuild the roads, bridges, communication systems and other facilities struck by bombs.
Additionally, the communists used the destructive air strikes for propaganda purposes to increase anti-American sentiment and patriotism among North Vietnamese citizens.
