Based on the information provided and advice from my advisors, I have decided to prosecute Francis Gary Powers. My reasons are:
1. Prosecuting Powers will demonstrate that the Soviet criminal justice system is fair and impartial, countering Western claims. This will score important propaganda points.
2. Prosecuting Powers will boost morale among Soviet anti-aircraft troops who worked hard to shoot down the U-2. Not prosecuting could damage their morale.
3. While releasing Powers may gain some prestige by portraying the Soviets as more humane than the West, prosecuting him still allows the Soviet Union to expose U.S. espionage efforts and score propaganda points that way. Overall, prosecution seems the
Origins of the cold war
The Cold War developed due to mistrust between the United States and Soviet Union after WWII. The US feared Soviet expansion while the Soviets wanted to rebuild and gain influence. This led both sides to build up their militaries. The US policy of containment sought to block Soviet influence without direct war. Events like the Berlin Blockade and Korean War escalated tensions, while NATO and the Warsaw Pact divided Europe between the allies. By the 1960s, the superpowers were engaged in an arms race and proxy conflicts in the developing world.

The Korean War
The Korean War began in 1950 when North Korea invaded South Korea in an attempt to reunify the Korean Peninsula under Communist rule. The US intervened on behalf of South Korea to prevent the spread of communism. After initial success pushing North Korea back, China entered the war in support of North Korea. The war eventually reached a stalemate and an armistice was signed in 1953, dividing Korea along the original 38th parallel border. The Korean War was a proxy conflict in the early Cold War between the US and Soviet-backed forces.

Early Cold War overview
The United States and Soviet Union dealt with increased tensions during the Cold War in the 1950s-1960s through several proxy conflicts and crises. Key events included the division of Germany and Berlin Wall, Korean War, overthrow of Mossadegh in Iran, Vietnam War, Cuban Revolution and Missile Crisis. Both sides engaged in arms buildups and space races to demonstrate military and technological superiority.
Cold War / Truman Years
The Cold War began in 1945 after World War 2 and lasted until 1991. It was a period of geopolitical tension between the Soviet Union and its satellite states (the Eastern Bloc), and the United States and its allies. Key events in the early Cold War from 1945-1952 under President Truman include the Truman Doctrine providing aid to Turkey and Greece to contain communism in Europe, the Marshall Plan to rebuild Western Europe, the 1948-1949 Berlin Airlift when the US flew supplies into West Berlin after Soviet blockades, and the 1950-1953 Korean War where US troops fought against communist North Korea and China.

Here are potential responses to the assignment questions:
1. Soldier morale dropped as the war dragged on because they saw no end in sight to the fighting, they were frustrated by guerrilla tactics, and many turned to drugs as a coping mechanism. Specific examples include soldiers fragging officers, increased drug use, and disillusionment with the war effort.
2. The US military relied too heavily on superior firepower but did not understand guerrilla warfare or win over local support. They could have focused more on counterinsurgency, protecting civilians, and political solutions in addition to military tactics. Search and destroy missions and use of napalm/Agent Orange backfired by alienating the Vietnamese people.
Phases of the cold war
The document outlines the various phases of the Cold War between the US and Soviet Union from 1946 to 1987. It discusses key events and developments in each phase, including the formation of opposing military alliances like NATO and the Warsaw Pact. The Cold War had far-reaching implications, fueling an arms race, dividing the world into two camps, and hindering the effectiveness of the UN. While tensions eased at times, the ideological rivalry between the two superpowers persisted until the late 1980s.

This document discusses the origins and development of detente during the Cold War between the US and USSR. It outlines the phases of the Cold War from 1946-1976. Detente emerged during the third phase from 1953-1957 as tensions grew but the two superpowers also engaged in some negotiations. The fourth phase from 1957-1962 saw some peaceful exchanges but also the Cuban Missile Crisis. The fifth phase led to a nuclear test ban treaty in 1963 but disputes remained. The sixth phase created a more suitable climate for detente, culminating in arms limitation treaties in 1972-1973 as cooperation increased between the US and USSR.

Cold war part_2_crises_of_the_cold_war
The Cold War featured ideological competition between capitalist United States and communist Soviet Union and their allies. Both sides built alliances like NATO and Warsaw Pact and stockpiled nuclear weapons, risking global destruction. Berlin became a flashpoint as the divided city's West part was surrounded by East Germany. The USSR blockaded West Berlin in 1948 but the US airlifted supplies until the blockade ended. To stop emigration, East Germany later built the Berlin Wall. Another crisis occurred in 1962 when US discovered Soviet nuclear missiles in Cuba, bringing the superpowers close to war until the USSR removed the missiles.
1950s Cold War
During the 1950s Cold War era, there was widespread fear of communist influence and nuclear attack in the United States. The federal government investigated the loyalty of employees, while people built bomb shelters and practiced drills in case of nuclear strikes. This fear of communism abroad led the US and USSR to engage in a nuclear arms race and space race to prove the superiority of their technologies and ideologies. The Soviet Union gained an early advantage by launching Sputnik as the first artificial satellite in 1957, but the US went on to land on the moon in 1969, claiming victory in the space competition.
Day 2 Cold War Competition
Countries competed with each other in multiple arenas during the Cold War, including militarily, through espionage and spying, in sports and technological developments. The US and Soviet Union used techniques like foreign aid, propaganda, covert operations, and proxy wars to gain influence around the world and over other nations not aligned with either side. Major events in this competition included the Berlin Airlift, the Korean War, the Cuban Missile Crisis, and the Space Race between the two superpowers.
Chapter 8 cold war
The document discusses the origins and outbreak of the Cold War between the United States and Soviet Union following World War II. Ideological differences and tensions that arose from competing visions of democracy and communism led to distrust between the former allies. As wartime cooperation broke down, the division of Europe and tensions over issues like reparations for Germany exacerbated hostility and marked the beginning of the Cold War era.
The korean war
The Korean War began in 1950 when North Korea invaded South Korea, leading the United Nations to intervene on behalf of South Korea. Fighting escalated over three years as China and the US became involved, and the warfront seesawed back and forth across the 38th parallel dividing line. General MacArthur proposed expanding the war into China but was fired by President Truman for insubordination. An armistice was finally signed in 1953, leaving the division between North and South Korea unchanged.

What was the Cold War?
The Cold War was the period of geopolitical tension and military buildup between the United States and Soviet Union from 1945 to 1980. While the two superpowers never engaged in direct military conflict, they each mobilized their forces and established military alliances like NATO and the Warsaw Pact. Key events during the Cold War included the Yalta and Potsdam conferences dividing post-WWII Europe, the Berlin airlift and blockade, and rebellions against communist rule in Hungary and Czechoslovakia.

Us soviet relations during detente
During the 1970s, the US and USSR pursued detente policies to reduce Cold War tensions and nuclear weapons. This included treaties like SALT I and SALT II that limited nuclear arsenals. However, detente failed in the late 1970s and early 1980s due to growing mistrust between the two sides, the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, and the election of Ronald Reagan, who took a hardline anti-Communist stance. This marked the end of detente and beginning of the "Second Cold War" period of renewed tensions.

The Cold War ended as relations improved between the US and Soviet Union in the late 1980s. President Reagan initially took a hardline anti-communist stance and increased military spending, but relations began improving after Mikhail Gorbachev came to power in the Soviet Union in 1985. The two leaders had summits starting in 1985 and were able to sign arms reduction treaties, leading to the end of the Cold War and transitioning Russia to a US ally.
18 Origins Of The Cold War
The Cold War divided the world into three sides after WWII - the Soviet Union, United States, and developing nations. The Soviets refused free elections in Eastern Europe and installed communist governments, while the US adopted a containment policy to stop communism's spread. Notable events included the Marshall Plan to rebuild Europe, the Berlin Airlift, the USSR developing an atomic bomb in 1949, the creation of NATO and Warsaw Pact alliances, and the Korean War stalemate of 1953. Fears of communism at home led to investigations and blacklists in the US government and film industry during this period.

The Post War World Part 5
1. Mikhail Gorbachev came to power in the Soviet Union in 1985 and introduced reforms of openness (glasnost) and economic restructuring (perestroika) to revitalize the Soviet economy amid stagnation.
2. Gorbachev sought to reduce Cold War tensions and nuclear arms, signing treaties with the US that eliminated intermediate-range nuclear weapons in Europe.
3. Inspired by Gorbachev's reforms and tolerance of dissent, opposition groups in Eastern Europe demanded changes, leading to the election of the first non-communist government in Poland in 1989 and undermining Soviet control in the region.
The Post War World Part 4
While tensions remained during the Cold War, the 1960s saw some improvements in US-Soviet relations and arms control efforts. Key events included the Cuban Missile Crisis convincing both sides to pursue nuclear arms agreements; the 1963 Limited Test Ban Treaty restricting atmospheric and underground nuclear tests; and the 1972 SALT I treaty freezing the number of nuclear delivery systems both countries could possess. However, political disagreements and distrust continued to hamper full resolution of issues like Germany and influence in the developing world.
6. detente
Détente was a period in the 1960s-1970s marked by efforts to reduce tensions between the US and USSR through arms control agreements like SALT I and cooperation in space. However, arms continued to increase on both sides after SALT I. Cooperation grew in areas like Antarctica research and space stations, but arms talks proved limited in curbing weapons buildups. Overall, détente had mixed success in improving relations versus controlling arms.
Was detente just another form of containment?
Détente refers to the policy of easing tensions between the US and Soviet Union/China in the 1960s-1970s. Key events during this period included the US allowing China to join the UN and Nixon visiting China. However, many historians argue that détente was simply an extension of the previous policy of containment, with the goal still being to limit the spread of communism but with a less confrontational approach. While it reduced tensions in some areas, détente failed to achieve many of its goals like non-proliferation or reductions in weapons, and was ultimately still part of the larger Cold War strategy of containment.
Truman doctrine and containment
1. After WWII, the US and USSR emerged as rival superpowers competing for global influence, leading to tensions in Europe and the establishment of communist governments in Eastern Europe under Stalin.
2. In response, the US formulated the policy of containment to prevent the spread of communism and provided aid to Greece and Turkey through the Truman Doctrine, marking the beginning of the Cold War.
3. The Cold War escalated with the development of nuclear weapons by both sides and establishment of opposing military alliances like NATO and the Warsaw Pact.
Cold War - Why did detente take place?
The process of détente in the 1970s reduced tensions between the USA and USSR for a time. There were four main reasons for détente: 1) The Vietnam War weakened US confidence and made it wary of overseas wars, 2) Both countries faced economic problems that made continuing an arms race unaffordable, 3) Leaders feared nuclear war after events like the Cuban Missile Crisis showed the risks, and 4) Improving US-China relations worried the USSR and motivated it to seek better relations with the USA as well.
Cold War - What was the impact of detente?
Détente was a period of reduced tensions between the US and USSR during the Cold War. There are debates around how effective it was, as arms control agreements like SALT I and II limited but did not stop nuclear weapons development. The Helsinki Accords confirmed Soviet control over Eastern Europe and human rights promises were ignored. Détente ended in 1979 when the Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan, angering the US and leading both countries to boycott each other's Olympics.
Collapse of Soviet Union
The document summarizes the collapse of communism in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe in the late 1980s and early 1990s. It describes key events like Gorbachev's policies of perestroika and glasnost that weakened the Soviet economy and political system. It also discusses the rise of nationalism in Eastern Europe that opposed Soviet control. Major symbols of the collapse included the tearing down of the Berlin Wall in 1989 and the subsequent breakup of the Soviet Union into independent republics from 1989 to 1991, ending communist rule.
Richard Nixon's Foreign Policy
http://www.tomrichey.net
Richard Nixon rose through the political ranks as a staunch anti-communist; however, the policy of his predecessors brought the world to the brink of nuclear war and brought the U.S. into an expensive and increasingly unpopular war.
Nixon embraced the policy of détente, a relaxing of tensions with the communist world. He negotiated the SALT I Treaty, established relations with Communist China, and established the Nixon Doctrine of assisting allies with money and weapons, but not with U.S. troops.
The Nixon Doctrine was applied in Vietnam with the Vietnamization of the war. Nixon declared “Peace with Honor” when the last U.S. troops left Vietnam, but Saigon fell to the communists just two years later.
Nixon employed the Madman Theory so that his adversaries would believe he was unpredictable.
Cold war unit summary
The Cold War began in 1945 between NATO countries led by the US and the Soviet-led Warsaw Pact countries. It was characterized by military rivalry and mutual suspicion between the two sides due to opposing political and economic ideologies. Key events that increased tensions included the formation of military alliances, the Korean War, flashpoints like the Berlin Crisis, and the Vietnam War, which the US struggled to win. Relations began to thaw in the late 1960s with détente policies pursued by both sides, including arms control agreements. Further changes in the 1980s within the Soviet Union under Gorbachev's reforms of glasnost and perestroika ultimately led to the end of the Cold War.
The Vietnam War ppt
The Vietnam War began in 1954 after France lost control of Vietnam to Ho Chi Minh's Viet Minh forces. The country was divided along the 17th parallel, with a communist government in North Vietnam led by Ho Chi Minh and a capitalist government in South Vietnam led by Ngo Dinh Diem. The U.S. initially provided aid to South Vietnam but became increasingly involved in the conflict throughout the 1960s. Heavy U.S. bombing and ground troop deployment failed to defeat North Vietnam and its allies in the South. The Tet Offensive in 1968 marked a turning point that turned U.S. public opinion against the war. The last U.S. troops withdrew in 1973 as North Vietnam defeated South Vietnam in

Korean war
The Korean War began in 1950 when North Korea invaded South Korea, aiming to reunite the peninsula under communist rule. The United Nations authorized troops to defend South Korea against the invasion. Fighting escalated significantly when China joined the war on North Korea's side in late 1950. Over the next two years, fighting surged back and forth across the Korean Peninsula until an armistice was signed in 1953, dividing the peninsula along roughly the same border where fighting began.
Korean War
The Korean War began in 1950 when North Korea invaded South Korea, sparking a conflict that lasted until 1953. It involved military forces from 22 countries aligned with the UN defending South Korea against North Korea and China. Over its three years, the war progressed through six stages as forces battled back and forth across the Korean Peninsula, ultimately resulting in a stalemate and armistice that divided Korea along the original border. The war caused over 2 million military and civilian casualties between both sides.
Koreanwar
The Korean War began in 1950 when North Korea invaded South Korea, capturing Seoul and much of the South quickly. UN forces led by the US intervened and pushed the North Koreans back to the Pusan Perimeter. General MacArthur then launched an amphibious invasion at Inchon, cutting North Korean supply lines and allowing UN forces to drive north. When China entered the war in late 1950, UN forces were pushed back south. Fighting eventually stabilized along the original border, leading to an armistice in 1953 that divided Korea along the 38th parallel. The war resulted in over 1 million casualties between all sides.
Coldwar
The Cold War was a period of geopolitical tension between the United States and Soviet Union from 1945-1991. The two superpowers established opposing military alliances - NATO and the Warsaw Pact - and engaged in an arms race including developing nuclear weapons. This rivalry led to regional proxy wars in Korea and Vietnam as the US sought to contain the spread of communism through military interventions and economic aid like the Marshall Plan. Tensions escalated during events like the Berlin Blockade and Cuban Missile Crisis, bringing the world close to nuclear war before relations gradually improved in the later Cold War era.
Korean War
The Korean War began in 1950 when North Korean forces crossed the 38th parallel that divided North and South Korea, invading South Korea in an attempt to reunify the country under communist rule. The United States led UN forces to defend South Korea against the invasion by North Korean forces equipped with Soviet tanks. Although UN forces recaptured Seoul and pushed into North Korea, China entered the war on North Korea's side, leading to a stalemate near the 38th parallel and over 4 million military and civilian casualties before an armistice was signed in 1953, leaving Korea still divided along the parallel.

However, Chinese troops then entered the war on the side of North Korea and drove UN forces back south. Fighting continued back and forth across the parallel until an armistice was signed in 1953, leaving Korea still divided along the 38th parallel between the communist North and non-communist South. Over 10 million people died during the three-year Korean War.
Korean War
Brief introduction to the Korean War. Information on events leading up to the war, the war itself, and the armistice.
Origins of the cold war
The Cold War developed due to mistrust between the United States and Soviet Union after WWII. The US feared Soviet expansion while the Soviets wanted to rebuild and gain influence. This led both sides to build up their militaries. The US policy of containment sought to block Soviet influence without direct war. Events like the Berlin Blockade and Korean War escalated tensions, while NATO and the Warsaw Pact divided Europe between the allies. By the 1960s, the superpowers were engaged in an arms race and proxy conflicts in the developing world.
Korean war
The Korean War began in 1950 when North Korea invaded South Korea, leading to fighting between North Korean and Chinese forces and United Nations forces led by the United States. After intense negotiations, an armistice was signed in 1953 that split Korea along the original border at the 38th parallel and ended direct fighting, though a peace treaty was never signed and the two Koreas remain divided. The war caused massive casualties, with over 1 million North and South Korean deaths as well as 55,000 American deaths. While the US prevented South Korea from falling, it failed to reunify the Korean peninsula.

Beads executive order_9066
Executive Order 9066 authorized the Secretary of War and military commanders to designate areas from which people could be excluded and restricted access.

Roosevelt and gave the military broad powers to restrict the movements of people in designated areas for reasons of national security.
Japanese internment
After the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941, over 120,000 Japanese Americans living on the west coast, two thirds of whom were U.S. citizens, were forcibly relocated to internment camps in the interior of the country. General John L. DeWitt advocated for their internment due to concerns about potential disloyalty, influenced by his own biases. In February 1942, President Roosevelt signed Executive Order 9066 authorizing the removal and exclusion of people from certain areas, and Japanese Americans were forced to report to camps surrounded by barbed wire in remote desert locations. While the Supreme Court upheld the internment in 1944, Fred Korematsu's conviction was later overturned when it was found the Justice Department withheld evidence
Main causes of the great war

Editor's Notes
- US had sugar mills and refineries in Cuba, lot of investments there Batista worked with US gment Cuba and Che Guevera overthrow the Batista and install a Communist gment We put an embargo on Cuba (that’s why you can’t by Cuban cigars) Castro turns to the Soviet Union for help. For a while, they are getting like a million bucks a day from Sov Un.
- Americans panicked….rushed to grocery stores, supermarket shelves emptied of food, water and other supplies
- President gives express orders not to fire on the boats without his permission
- 1 st letter analyzed – seems to be written by Krushchev under stress. Not edited before sent out b/c it has a lot of emotion in it, not politically correct 2 nd letter made them suspect Krushchev had been overthrown b/c it was much tougher, said US had to withdraw its missiles from Turkey too. We couldn’t do that….would make us look weak.
