Best Answer

American economic assistance to Germany was part of the Marshall Plan, a comprehensive program for Western Europe designed to rebuild the infrastructure of nations impacted by WWII. It was motivated by the belief that prosperity would make Germany less likely to turn to Communism, which was a very real worry at the time and enable them to contribute to their own defense. In the longer run, a prosperous Western Europe became a key market for American exports.

Because the Allied powers learned from WWI and the Treaty of Versailles what forced reparations could do to a national psyche - Hitler had in part used German resentment over the Treaty to rise to power - and because the Western Allies (U.S., Britain, France) wanted to stem the spread of Communism in the East (Japan) and West (West Germany), and strong capitalist economies/governments with Western ties in Japan and (West) Germany would help accomplish this.

Well if you look under pearl harbor in the history section or if you look in classified documents that are leaked on the internet and find something about why they would help japan when they are the ones that bombed us then we were trying to do the buddy tactic where its like in middle school or something where you break some ones jewelry and you try to make up for it so we are trying to keep them from doing a relapse of what they did to us during the world war 2
