How did truman and eisenhower differ in their approach to the Soviet Union?

1 answer:

4 0

Truman was the one who adopted a policy of containment. This (arguably) aggressive approach was what influenced America to get into wars such as the Korean War and other smaller conflicts. Meanwhile, Eisenhower was a bit less aggressive. Although his Secretary of State Dulles preached Brinksmanship and was very anti-Soviet, Eisenhower himself was somewhat against this, as shown when he did nothing to prevent the Hungarian Revolt. He also sought to increase U.S-Soviet Relations in the Spirit of Geneva, but the U-2 Incident pretty much erased most of his progress.

Which of the following was true of al-Qaeda prior to the September 11 attacks?

sweet [91]

The correct answer is D.

The 1998 United States embassy bombing occurred on August 7, eight years to the day after US troop were ordered to Saudi Arabia in the aftermath of Iraq's invasion of Kuwait.

200 people were killed in nearly simultaneous truck bomb explosions in two East African cities, one in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, and one in Nairobi, Kenya.

Al Queda was liked to these attacks as Osama Bin Laden considered the presence of US troops in the Saudi Arabia, home to the holy cities of Mecca and Medina, a great offence. One theory says that they were carried out as revenge for the US involvement in the extradition and torturing of members of the Egyptian Jihad.

After the attacks, Osama bin Laden had been put on the ten-most-wanted fugitives list.
