Igoryamba

Answer:

Adams was against helping in the revolution while Jefferson was for it.

Explanation:

Jefferson: Arguing that the revolution was being waged in the name of liberty for the people, Jefferson stated his position in a letter to a friend: ''My own affections have been deeply wounded by some of the martyrs to the cause, but rather than it should have failed, I would have seen half the earth desolated."

Adams: Adams was against the French Revolution. Adams was afraid that the French Revolution would destroy America. He believed the American economy and government would collapse if the country became involved in Europe’s struggle.

Which fact provides the BEST evidence to support the conclusion that the most important successes of Jimmy Carter's presidency w
AveGali [126]

The answer to choose:  A) Carter was instrumental in negotiating the Camp David Accords, which directly led to the 1979 Egypt-Israeli Peace Treaty.

Details:

Thanks to the persistent efforts of President Carter in working with Egyptian President Anwar Sadat and Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin, those two leaers signed the Camp David Accords in September, 1978.   That led to the 1979 peace treaty between Egypt and Israel that has lasted to the present day.  Sadat and Begin were awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1978 for their efforts in reaching the agreement that they made.

As to the other answers:  

The fact that Carter allowed the deposed shah of Iran to come into the USA for medical treatment did provoke the hostage seizure in Tehran.  However, that was not a major <u>success</u> of Carter's foreign policy, but a major mistake. (His advisors had tried to tell him in advance that letting the shah come into the US was a bad idea.)

Similarly, the increase of tensions with the Soviet Union over the Olympics would not be an example of a success.

The federal law regarding cleaning up hazardous waste would be a success item, but one of <u>domestic</u> policy, not foreign policy.
