Truman is claiming that if the United States does not help Greece and Turkey, they will eventually fall to communism.

This excerpt is from a speech given by Truman after World War II and is the basis of the Truman Doctrine. After World War II, the US was worried about the Soviet Union and the system of communism spreading all over Europe. If communism spread, it would increase the Soviet Union's power, making them the world's largest superpower.

The US did not want this to happen, as they feared that if one country fell to communism, nearby countries would fall as well. This is known as the domino theory. To prevent this from happening, the US ends up giving $400 million to Greece and Turkey in order to stabilize their economy.

In what way did British leaders misunderstand the Revolutionary War
Jobisdone [24]
The revolutionary war which was a contention with the settlements was misconstrued by the British pioneers because of the way that they didn't consider the make a difference important. They never planned to ethically help the homesteaders around then. 
It could've been evaded, or postponed had the British cut left a greater amount of the Colonies' cash and assets alone. A major factor in beginning the war was all the tax collection and the handbags of those nationals.
