How did the phrase "Iron Curtain" reinforce Churchill's overall message in the speech?

History

barxatty [35]3 years ago

Churchill's overall message in his 1946 speech "The Sinews of Peace" is that even though America, Britain and other powerful states have won the Second World War, the world at large still hasn't managed to establish a long-lasting and stable peace. The greatest threats are war and terror.

The phrase "Iron Curtain" invigorates this thesis. It divides Europe into two halves, the democratic West and the Russia-influenced, communist and totalitarian East. This term is extremely rich in associations; the curtain means division which breaks up the post-war prosperity and unity that all the states should strive for. The fact that it is "iron" associates war and destruction, which is why many historians think that this speech marked the beginning of the Cold War.

Which of congress’s powers is implied through the necessary and proper clause?
Allushta [10]

Answer:

The Necessary and Proper Clause - located in section 8, Article I of U.S. Constitution- relates to the power of Congress to negotiate treaties, as part of the need to create laws that contribute to the enforcement of other powers.

Explanation:

The options for this question are:

A. The power to declare war .

B. The power to restrict child labor.

<em>C. The power to negotiate treaties .</em>

D. The power to print money.

Necessary and Proper Clause gives congress the flexibility to exercise additional powers, considered implied powers, being the negotiation of treaties one of the powers directly related to the clause.

Treaty negotiation involves all international transactions and conventions that are made to achieve mutual benefit, in line with the interests of the nations involved, such as economic and security benefits.

The powers to declare war, restrict child labor and printing money are granted directly to the Congress by the Constitution, and are not related to Necessary and Proper Clause.
