Answer:

President Woodrow Wilson asks Congress to send U.S. troops into battle against Germany in World War I. In his address to Congress that day, Wilson lamented it is a fearful thing to lead this great peaceful people into war. Four days later, Congress obliged and declared war on Germany.

In February and March 1917, Germany, embroiled in war with Britain, France and Russia, increased its attacks on neutral shipping in the Atlantic and offered, in the form of the so-called Zimmermann Telegram, to help Mexico regain Texas, New Mexico and Arizona if it would join Germany in a war against the United States. The public outcry against Germany buoyed President Wilson in asking Congress to abandon America’s neutrality to make the world safe for democracy.

Do you think the U.S. should have pulled out of Afghanistan? Why or why not?

valkas [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Considering that they should never have gone in in the first place, it's about time that they pulled out. I saw a cartoon the other day of an Afghan standing beside the road looking at all the head gear of those trying to conquer the region -- Rome, Russia, one more I can't remember and The US. It's quite a list. History should have told America to stay out.

If Russia couldn't do it, (and she's much closer to Afghanistan than America is) then it should have been a warning not to try.

NEED ASAP I WILL MARK BRAINLIEST Why would punishments for breaking the law be different for corporations and individuals?

Answer: D, Individuals could not afford as large a fine as corporations could.

Explanation:

A and D are good answers but D is the one which is the most different between them. Individuals cannot afford to pay a large fine while corporations can. The U.S. justice system is more susceptible to heft a fine on corporations than average citizens.
