Which groups were part of the Iran-Contra scandal?

History
1 answer:
Goshia [24]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

  • Nicaraguan rebels
  • Iranian government
  • Hezbollah in Lebanon

Explanation:

Under the Reagan administration, Iran was under an Arms embargo but needed arms. A plan was then struck between some members of the US Government, Israel and Iran in which Israel would ship arms to Iran and the US would then resupply the arms that Israel had shipped and then be paid by Israel.

Officially, this was done to encourage Iran to negotiate with their allies Hezbollah which was paramilitary group in Lebanon, to release a group of American hostages. However, some of the proceeds from the arms trade to Iran were then used to fund the Anti-communist Contra rebels in Nicaragua who could no longer be funded officially by the US Government due to an amendment by Congress that limited the amount of aid that could be given to the rebels.

What oath did lincoln claim in his inaugural address?
Charra [1.4K]

The answer is: Lincoln claimed to defend the Union and attempted to convince the South that the secession was illegal and impossible.

Lincoln gained massive popularity on the northern states because he advocated for the establishment of slavery, and the south was threatening secession because they relied heavily on slavery as the major workforce that sustain their economy.

Lincoln realized that if the southern states manage to secede from united states, The republican party would receive the largest amount of blame for the separation, and their chance to free the slaves in southern states were gone. Because of this, he swore an oath to defend the union and prevent the south from seceding in his inaugural address.
