Answer:
The United States has mainly had two consistent policies in the Middle-East from the 1980s to the present:
- Supporting Israel: Israel is America's main ally in the region, and both Democrats and Republicans support Israel. The U.S. provides military contributions to that country, which is often in conflict with its neighbors. These contributions are crucial for Israel continuos military victories.
- Supporting Saudi Arabia instead of Iran: since the founding of the Islamic Iranian Republic, The United States has been a enemy of Iran and viceversa, and Iran is at the same time a geopolitical enemy of Israel and Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia and Iran are in fact, often at war in other countries (proxy wars), and the U.S. always supports the former.

Hello there!
Herbert Hoover became president at a time of ongoing prosperity in the country. Americans hoped he would continue to lead the country through still more economic growth, and neither he nor the country was ready for the unraveling that followed. But Hoover’s moderate policies, based upon a strongly held belief in the spirit of American individualism, were not enough to stem the ever-growing problems, and the economy slipped further and further into the Great Depression.
While it is misleading to view the stock market crash of 1929 as the sole cause of the Great Depression, the dramatic events of that October did play a role in the downward spiral of the American economy. The crash, which took place less than a year after Hoover was inaugurated, was the most extreme sign of the economy’s weakness. Multiple factors contributed to the crash, which in turn caused a consumer panic that drove the economy even further downhill, in ways that neither Hoover nor the financial industry was able to restrain. Hoover, like many others at the time, thought and hoped that the country would right itself with limited government intervention. This was not the case, however, and millions of Americans sank into grinding poverty.
Hope this helped!
