Why did some Americans support the Korean war?

Answer 1

The United States joined the Korean War because the US feared that all countries in Asia would be turned to a communist country. At the time of the Korean War, China was a huge factor because China supported North Korea. If the United States did not support South Korea then the domino effect would have been put to effect.

In other words.. The United States joined the Korean War to resist communism from spreading.

Answer 2

It was during the Cold War, when America's primary foreign policy was stopping the spread of communism. So when communist North Korea invaded non-communist South Korea, it was only natural that the U.S. would enter the war on South Korea's side.
