Truman noted that Communist Guerrillas were making inroads in Greece and, in order to prevent a Communist takeover of the country, funds needed to be given to the fledgling Greek government.
In 1947, President Harry S. Truman believed the Greeks needed American aid to prevent the spread of communism in Europe. Greece was facing a civil war fueled by communist insurgents, and Truman feared that if the U.S. did not intervene, it could lead to a domino effect, threatening other nations. He viewed American support as essential not only for Greece's stability but also for maintaining broader democratic values in the region. This rationale led to the establishment of the Truman Doctrine, which aimed to provide political, military, and economic assistance to countries resisting communism.

yes, it applied to both. if Greece and Turkey did not receive the aid that they urgently needed, they would inevitably fall to communism with grave consequences throughout the region.
It became monotheistic because they thought the people needed a wide variety of gods to believe in.
yes they did as British soldiers needed help fighting of the communist Greek rebels, soon Britain informed they could not afford to keep their soldiers fighting in Greece so Truman stepped in and sent them money for weapons and equipment. Greece was under communist influence but had a British government because Stalin agreed with Churchill that Greece would remain on the Western sphere of influence. Now Truman also saw Turkey under the threat of Communism so they sent US aid to them as well.
