United States foreign policy in the Middle East has its roots in the 18th century Barbary Wars in the first years of the United States of America's existence, but became much more expansive in the aftermath of World War II. American policy during the Cold War tried to prevent Soviet Union influence by supporting anti-communist regimes and backing Israel against Soviet-sponsored Arab countries. The U.S. also came to replace the United Kingdom as the main security patron of the Persian Gulf states in the 1960s and 1970s, to ensure a stable flow of Gulf oil.[1] The U.S. has diplomatic relations with all countries in the Middle East except for Iran, whose 1979 revolution against the US-backed reign of Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi brought to power a staunchly anti-American regime
Due process and equal protection under the law-- due process requires laws be carried out fairly and equally.
The laws of the US are suppose to be "blind" in particular for the justice system. Despite the sex, race, or origin of a person laws should be executed and judged equally.

Correct answer (from choices shown in comment): C: Many members still wanted to keep the king involved in government.
<u>Context/detail</u>:
The 3rd Estate represented the "ordinary" or "common" citizens of France, as opposed to clergy (1st Estate) and nobility (2nd Estate). The 3rd Estate was the bulk of the people (98% of the population) of France, all considered "commoners." (The clergy and nobility were the 1st and 2nd Estates.) So, the 3rd Estate included wealthy, bourgeois wine merchants and lawyers and professionals, as well as day laborers in the city and peasant farmers in the country.
The beginning phase of the French Revolution was led by the bourgoisie -- the wealthier, business class within the 3rd Estate. They were not seeking a complete upheaval of the government, but a situation that would give them greater political rights and a government that would be advantageous for their pursuit of business profits. So the first phase of the Revolution was moderate in its goals, wanting the king to remain but be a constitutional monarch. It was later that the Revolution turned radical and began to move against the king and his family, eventually executing both the king and the queen.
