Congress would not ratify the SALT II treaty because D) The Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan and C) Russian combat troops were found in Cuba. Because of these two reasons Congress did not ratify the treaty. Six months after signing the treaty, the Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan and the United States discovered that there was a Soviet Union brigade stationed in Cuba which led to the treaty not being ratified.

Correct answer:

<h2>Many Americans had a widespread fear of further attacks following Pearl Harbor.</h2>

Explanation:

After Pearl Harbor was attacked, there was much suspicion directed against Japanese Americans. There was fear that they might give information to the Japanese or somehow participate in attacks against the U.S. Suspicious of anyone of Japanese heritage, the government restricted the civil liberties of Japanese Americans. In February, 1942, President Roosevelt issued Executive Order 9066, which allowed the Secretary of War to designate certain areas as military zones. FDR's executive order set the stage for the relocation of Japanese-ancestry persons to internment camps. By June of 1942, over 100,000 Japanese Americans were sent to such internment camps.
