QAR American Anthem pp History of a Free Nation p Who are Eisenhower and Dulles? How does Dulles feel about containment? What is Brinksmanship? What is Massive retaliation? What does Eisenhower DO with the advice from Dulles? From the Primary Source doc #23 on DULLES: Why does DULLES believe containment is UNSOUND? (what does unsound mean?)

Doc H “…I believe that it must be the policy of the United States to support free peoples who are resisting attempted subjugation by armed minorities or by outside pressures.” Truman Doctrine 1947 plan HELPanybody Getting punked by EVIL COMMUNISTS THAT WE HATE. DOC J “…it represents a menace to the world.”

DOC I Chicago Tribune March 13,1947 “The outcome will inevitably be war. It probably will not come this year or next year, but the issue is already drawn.” What does this suggest about CONTAINMENT? Are they criticizing or providing an alternative?

1949 Who? Was CONTAINMENT the correct policy for the time? ANALYZE: What does this say? ANALYZE: What does this say?

Lippmann Doc G “American military power is peculiarly unsuited to a policy of containment which has to be enforced persistently and patiently for an indefinite period of time….” Was CONTAINMENT the correct policy for the time? What IS the US military suited to do? What would you predict?

“ya know the Cold War isn’t so bad” Who? Was CONTAINMENT the correct policy for the time? ANALYZE: What does this say?

Eisenhower doctrine The doctrine stated that the USA would use armed forces upon request in response to imminent or actual aggression Countries that took stances opposed to Communism would be given aid in various forms.opposed to Communism Was CONTAINMENT the correct policy for the time? Was this just a new look at CONTAINMENT? EVOLVE EVOLVE: to change or adapt over time.

Domino theory Was this just a new look at CONTAINMENT?

Changing foreign policy Cage them in. By playing chicken Was CONTAINMENT the correct policy for the time?

Foreign Policy “Hot Spots”  Warsaw Pact created  Hungarian Revolution  Berlin Crisis  U-2 Spy Incident  Warsaw Pact created  Hungarian Revolution  Berlin Crisis  U-2 Spy Incident EUROPE: Was CONTAINMENT the correct policy for the time?

Foreign Policy “Hot Spots”  CIA sponsored coup in Iran  Suez Crisis  Civil War in Lebanon  CIA sponsored coup in Iran  Suez Crisis  Civil War in Lebanon Middle East: Was CONTAINMENT the correct policy for the time?

Foreign Policy “Hot Spots”  O. A. S. [Organization of American States]  CIA covert ops. in Guatemala s  Puerto Rican independence movement  Castro’s Communist Revolution in Cuba  O. A. S. [Organization of American States]  CIA covert ops. in Guatemala s  Puerto Rican independence movement  Castro’s Communist Revolution in Cuba. Latin America: Was CONTAINMENT the correct policy for the time?

Foreign Policy “Hot Spots” Korean War ends at 38 th  French punked by Indo-China.  Geneva Accords  China explodes its 1 st A-bomb Korean War ends at 38 th  French punked by Indo-China.  Geneva Accords  China explodes its 1 st A-bomb Far East:

Massive retaliation Use nuclear arsenal if Soviets take offensive actions. IS the US military suited to do this? Compare this to containment.

New American President How would changing presidents effect policy? Won election by suggesting Rep let us become in danger. What did I just say about containment? I wonder how my containment policy will play out ?

Kennedy Doctrine “Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, in order to assure the survival and the success of liberty.” 1 1 Containment: confinement or isolation of a threat. Brinksmanship: push every threat to the limit of safety. Was CONTAINMENT the correct policy for the time? Was this just a new look at CONTAINMENT? Containment ?

Who are these 2 people? Was CONTAINMENT the correct policy for the time? ANALYZE: What does this say?

Do you really want this? Does containment diminish the threat? Does containment increase the threat?

Better develop some options. Alliance for progress Green Berets What do you think these are for? New policy or new method? Compare this to containment. “FLEXIBLE response””.

Policy evolution Team mates that tolerate each other due to common enemy. Adversaries that challenge each other with mild threats and have stopped talking nicely. Adversaries that fight A threat too close to home. Brinksmanship is VERY Dangerous. Was CONTAINMENT the correct policy for the time? How will Kennedy adapt or evolve with containment as new events close to home occur?

Evaluation How much has the American foreign policy really changed? How much has the world position really changed? What alternatives are being offered? Does lack of a better alternative make Containment good by default? Is it a problem with containment as a policy, or how we choose to enforce it? If it is policy is UNENFORCEABLE can it be a good policy? Was CONTAINMENT the correct policy for the time? wcrpft?

WCRPFT # 5 Compare and contrast ANY 1 of the “evolutions” of the Containment policy to the original plan in the TRUMAN doctrine. Docs 22 and 23 required. Doc 22: Eisenhower “military industrial complex” speech Doc 23: Dulles “liberation or containment”
