5 0

Answer:

President Dwight Eisenhower supported CIA covert operations and highly regarded the value of intelligence information. In his years, major technological developments such as the U-2 spy aircraft and CORONA satellites, both developed during the Eisenhower administration, allowed the CIA get much new information that was impossible to gather before. His government also supported covert operations to overthrow governments that the administration didn´t like or suspected to be communist. This is the case of the CIA-orchestrated coup against the nationalist government of Jacobo Arbenz in Guatemala in 1954, who had become a target because of his treatment of abusive US corporations that exploited Guatemalan peasants.

In the Eisenhower years, there were also secret CIA operations in Indonesia to prevent a Communist takeover and in Iran, where the CIA organized a coup against the local ruler.

Think about the compromises that occurred in the United States before 1850. Do you think the solutions set forth in those compro
shutvik [7]

The plan was set forth. The giants — Calhoun, Webster, and Clay — had spoken. Still the Congress debated the contentious issues well into the summer. Each time Clay's Compromise was set forth for a vote, it did not receive a majority. Henry Clay himself had to leave in sickness, before the dispute could be resolved. In his place, Stephen Douglas worked tirelessly to end the fight. On July 9, President Zachary Taylor died of food poisoning. His successor, MILLARD FILLMORE, was much more interested in compromise. The environment for a deal was set. By September, Clay's Compromise became law.

California was admitted to the Union as the 16th free state. In exchange, the south was guaranteed that no federal restrictions on slavery would be placed on Utah or New Mexico. Texas lost its boundary claims in New Mexico, but the Congress compensated Texas with $10 million. Slavery was maintained in the nation's capital, but the slave trade was prohibited. Finally, and most controversially, a FUGITIVE SLAVE LAW was passed, requiring northerners to return runaway slaves to their owners under penalty of law
