Answer: The Gulf of Tonkin resolution authorized the US President to do what he felt necessary to bring peace to Southeast Asia.  It led to massive escalation of US military involvement in the Vietnam War.

Detail:

The Gulf of Tonkin Resolution was a measure passed by US Congress that allowed the US President to make military actions, like increase troops, without formal declaration of war.  It led to huge escalation of US involvement in the Vietnam War. The resolution was passed by Congress in August, 1964, after alleged attacks on two US naval ships in the Gulf of Tonkin.  The key wording in the resolution said:

  • <em>Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, that the Congress approves and supports the determination of the President, as Commander in Chief, to take all necessary measures to repel any armed attack against the forces of the United States and to prevent further aggression.</em>

That resolution served as a blank check for President Johnson to send troops to whatever extent he deemed necessary in pursuance of the war.  Between 1964 and the end of Johnson's presidency in 1969, US troop levels in Vietnam increased from around 20,000 to over 500,000.

Answer:

Summary

Prior to and during health assessment of patients, factors such as the health status of the patient/client, the age and cognitive ability of the patient, learning disability as well as gender issues need to be considered as these can have an impact on the assessment process. This chapter discusses these factors, and also explores some of the essential ethical aspects of the process of completing a patient assessment such as privacy, confidentiality, respect for dignity and truthfulness. All these aspects can be subsumed under the principle of respect for persons. The environment within which assessment takes place could also impact on the assessment process. The clinical differences between adults and children, and the different levels of cognition in children at various stages of development can affect how children may be assessed. The chapter also outlines the differences in health‐related behavior of men and women.

suter [353]

<u>Churcill pronounced those words as part of an speech in the Munich Confederence, also known as Munich Betrayal, that took place in 1938.</u>

After intense negotiations, leaders from France and UK allowed nazi Germany to annex the region called "Sudetenland" in Czechoslovakia, by not sending any troops there. Morover, the French-Czechoslovak alliance was dishonoured.

Hitler had already started his policy of "Living Space", which aimed to gain the territories that the supreme German race deserved, according to his Nazi ideology. He had gained control over territories without opposition, and Sudetenland was just another one. This is why Churchill said that Hitler got “them served to him course by course”.
