How was the foreign policy of the U.S. and Cuba different during the Spanish-America War?
During the Spanish-American War, the U.S. foreign policy was characterized by imperialist ambitions, seeking to expand its influence and territory by intervening in Cuba's struggle for independence from Spain. In contrast, Cuba's foreign policy was primarily focused on achieving sovereignty and liberation from colonial rule. While the U.S. aimed to establish itself as a global power through military intervention, Cuba sought to gain autonomy and self-determination, ultimately leading to the U.S. gaining control over Cuban affairs after the war. This difference highlighted the contrasting motivations and goals of the two entities during this period.
How did the Marshall Plan differ from the Truman Doctrine?
Excellent answer. The Marshall Plan, the brainchild of George C. Marshall (who had been head of the Allied Chiefs of Staff during WW II), really had no intended connection to the Truman Doctrine and the policy of "Containment." It did, however, bring the US and USSR into conflict over the rebuilding of Germany and the western sectors of Berlin, and so became entangled in the Containment Policy, which was the invention of George Keenan. By rebuilding Western Europe and seeking to prevent the spread of Communism by all means possible, not only military means, the two policies became for a time two integral parts of Truman's foreign policy. The Marshall Plan, of course, ended when it's purpose was finished, but Containment remained a vital part of US policy until the economic collapse of the Soviet Union. That economic collapse was the very point of Keenan's plan.
Why was America attacked on 9-11?
There are two major reasons: 1) Al-Qaeda, as an organization, has as its mission the forcible conversion to Islam of the entire world. It does not recognize the right of Freedom of Religion and the idea that a powerful country, such as the United States could reject their demands to convert to Islam angered them enough to wish to inflict terrible pain on the United States. 2) American Foreign Policy in the Muslim World, especially as concerns Israel, angers a lot of Arabs. The support for a regime they see as violent towards their own people (the Palestinians) causes much ire. Additionally, the United States supported a coup d'état in Iran, supported Iraq before invading and supplanting it, empowered the Egyptian dictator Hosni Mubarak, and many other issues. This anger with American Foreign Policy could only be rectified, in their opinion, if Americans could truly suffer for their foreign policy decisions like Muslims do. Two things are worth noting here. Firstly, Islam as a religion does not promote the idea of forcible conversion even though organizations like Al-Qaeda use this mechanism. It is one of the many ways that Al-Qaeda misrepresents the tenets of Islam. Secondly, George W. Bush's mantra that "they hate us for our freedom" is only a half-truth. The second part of that statement, that, of course, he never uttered, is "and our intent to squash theirs." Most Muslims want to be free and Arab Spring is a perfect example of how Arabs are ready to fight for freedom instead of against it.
