If you were president Truman would you have dropped nuclear weapons on the Chinese like general MacArthur wanted?

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer: No

Explanation:

The world was simply not ready for another nuclear strike at the time and especially not against a country like China. China had just become a communist country and had the support of the Soviet Union. Any nuclear attacks on China might have led to all out war with the Chinese and the Soviets which would have definitely involved nuclear weapons.

Also worthy of note was that the Chinese had practiced restraint in the Korean war. They did not use heavy machinery and were content to limit their attacks on the UN forces after some time which showed that they too did not want to escalate the conflict. A diplomatic solution was therefore the best option and what I would have sought, much like Truman did.

Why did it take the United States until 1917 to enter World War I? Europeans asked the United States to remain neutral. The majo

anzhelika [568]

Answer: The majority of Americans supported a policy of neutrality.

Explanation:

"Woodrow Wilson did not want war.

When World War I erupted in Europe in 1914, the 28th U.S. president pledged neutrality, in sync with prevailing American public opinion.

But while Wilson tried to avoid war for the next three years, favoring instead a negotiated collective approach to international stability, he was rapidly running out of options. Tensions heightened as Germany tried to isolate Britain in 1915 and announced unrestricted attacks against all ships that entered the war zone around the British Isles.

In early April 1917, with the toll in sunken U.S. merchant ships and civilian casualties rising, Wilson asked Congress for “a war to end all wars” that would “make the world safe for democracy.” A hundred years ago, on April 6, 1917, Congress thus voted to declare war on Germany, joining the bloody battle—then optimistically called the Great War.”
