History
1 answer:
EleoNora [17]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:Obviously refers to the July 1932 eviction from Washington DC of unarmed US war veteran protesters and their families some 7000-15000 people who had come to protest their unemployment/ homelessness/ starvation and the non payment of their WWI veteran pay to the US government during the Great Depression.

After some violence had broken out the night of July 28th (the Washington police chief was injured and 2 protesters killed by police). The then President (Herbert Hoover) sent in army troops led by General Douglas MacArthur. Against the orders of the President to act with 'restraint' MacArthur attacked the protesters at night with cavalry, sabers, rifle fire, machine guns, and tanks, killing/ wounding 100+, then burned their tents to the ground despite the efforts of the Washington police chief and officers to protect the unarmed crowd.

What country led in trying to stop Communism after World War II?
alexdok [17]
The country that tried to stop the spread of Communism would be the United States. After World War II, the United States saw the threat that Communism posed on the world, so they adopted policies to prevent the spread of it. These policies were known as containment because they were trying to contain the spread of Communism. This fueled the fire in what would be known as the Cold War, which was a time of heightened aggression between the United States and the Soviet Union. I hope this helps :)
