Here is information that you could use to argue either side of this debate.

Agree
- One could argue that Harry Truman played a significant role in the Red Scare due to his speech to Congress regarding the Truman Doctrine. In this speech, he asks Congress to give financial assistance to countries like Greece and Turkey. He discusses how the fate of these countries, and other ones all over Europe, rest in the fate of the US. If the US does not help these countries, communism can take over. This could lead to repression and hard economic times for millions of people.

Disagree
- Even though he created the Truman Doctrine, Truman did not scare up nearly as much fear as Joe McCarthy. McCarthy accused hundreds of people of being communist, played a significant role in the growth of the House Un-American Activities Committee, and used fear tactics to scare individuals. Truman was not nearly as extreme in his fight against domestic communism.

What claims could the British and Americans lay to the Oregon Territory?
DanielleElmas [232]
Oregon Territory was originally claimed by Great Britain, who, under their claim, established successful trade outposts such as the Hudson Bay Company, etc. However, during the course of westward expansion(manifest destiny, whatever), after Lewis and Clark's exploration of Oregon Territory, many Americans settled the Oregon territory, including missionaries and fur trappers, who of course set up shop. In the end, the American claim was stronger, as you can see, Oregon isnt influenced by Britain like parts of Canada are now.

Who referred to the domino theory as a reason to support liberation of communist countries?
Westkost [7]
The correct answer is <span>Eisenhower 

He believed that if a single country fell to a communist regime, they it would create an effect like dominoes that fall and that all others would fall down. That's the reason why the United States intervened in both Korea and Vietnam. Unlike Korea, the US weren't capable of preventing the victory of Communism in Vietnam.</span>
