Critical Thinking
US policy for the first half of the 1900s was about isolationism and neutrality. Define these ideas?
How did these policies affect US actions before World War II? How did President Franklin Delano Roosevelt see the threat by Japan and Nazi Germany? What did FDR do to try to help the war effort before the US officially entered the War?
How did the US finally enter into WWII with Japan and Germany?
Do you think that the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima was necessary to end the war? How about the second one on Nagasaki?
At the end of the war the Nuremberg Tribunal and other military tribunals were created by the victors, what did they mostly deal with? What is a war crime? Lastly, what happened to Europe after WWII?
