63. ANS: One adviser opposed using the bomb because it would kill civilians indiscriminately. Instead, he believed an economic blockade and conventional bombing might convince Japan to surrender. Another adviser wanted to warn the Japanese about the bomb while at the same time telling them that they could keep the emperor if they surrendered. Another adviser wanted to drop the bomb without any warning to shock Japan into surrendering. All his advisers warned President Truman to expect massive casualties if the United States invaded Japan. Truman decided to drop the bomb because he believed it was his duty as president to use every weapon available to save American lives.

President Johnson announced that North Vietnamese torpedo boats had fired on two American destroyers in the Gulf of Tonkin. Two days later he announced another similar attack. He insisted that the attacks were unprovoked and immediately ordered American aircraft to attack North Vietnamese ships and naval facilities. He did not reveal that the American warships had been assisting the South Vietnamese in electronic spying and commando raids on North Vietnam. Johnson then asked Congress to authorize the use of force to defend American forces. Congress passed the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution, authorizing the president to “take all necessary measures to repel any armed attack” against United States forces. In effect, Congress handed its war powers over to the president. Soon the Vietcong began to attack American bases. Johnson responded by bombing North Vietnam. Soon, the first American combat troops were ordered into Vietnam.

57. ANS: Throughout the 1960s, thousands of mostly white youths turned away from their middle- and upper-class existence and created a new lifestyle—one that promoted the virtues of flamboyant dress, rock music, drug use, and free and independent living. With their alternative ways of life, these young people became known as the counterculture and were commonly called “hippies.” Originally, hippie culture represented a rebellion against the dominant culture. This included a rejection of Western civilization, of rationality, order, and the traditional values of the middle class. At its core, the counterculture held up a utopian ideal: the ideal of a society that was freer, closer to nature, and full of love, empathy, tolerance, and cooperation. When the movement grew larger, many of the newcomers did not always understand these original ideas of the counterculture. For them, what mattered were the outward signs that defined the movement, such as long hair, shabby jeans, and drugs. Many hippies formed group living arrangements called communes. Thousands flocked to San Francisco’s Haight-Ashbury district.

58. ANS: Nixon believed in shaping a foreign policy rooted in practical approaches rather than ideologies. He felt the nation’s decades-long anti-Communist crusade had created a foreign policy that was too rigid and often worked against the nation’s interests. While he wanted to continue to contain communism, he believed that engagement and negotiation offered a better way for the United States to achieve its international goals. Though Nixon was still staunchly anti-Communist, over the years he had come to reject the notion of a bipolar world, in which the superpowers of the United States and Soviet Union confronted each other. He believed the United States needed to understand the growing role that China, Japan, and Western Europe would soon begin playing. This “multipolar” world of the future demanded a different approach to American foreign policy. Nixon fashioned an approach called détente, or relaxation of tensions between the United States and its two major Communist rivals, the Soviet Union and China.

59. ANS: Conservatives fundamentally distrust the power of government, particularly the federal government. They support the original intent of the Constitution, and they believe that government power should be divided into different branches and split between the state and federal level to limit its ability to intrude on people’s lives. Conservatives believe that if the government regulates the economy, it makes the economy less efficient, resulting in less wealth and more poverty. They believe that free enterprise is the best way to achieve a higher standard of living for everyone. For this reason, conservatives generally oppose high taxes and government programs that transfer wealth from the rich to the poor. These taxes and programs, they believe, discourage investment and take away people’s incentive to work hard. The more that government regulates the economy, conservatives argue, the more it will have to regulate every aspect of people’s behavior. Ultimately, they fear, the government will so restrict people’s economic freedom that Americans will no longer be able to improve their standard of living and get ahead in life.

60. ANS: As oil became important to the American economy in the 1920s, the United States invested heavily in the oil industry in the Middle East. This industry brought great wealth to the ruling families in some Middle Eastern kingdoms, but it left most of the people poor. Some became angry at the United States for supporting the wealthy kingdoms and families. The growth of the oil industry increased the Middle East’s contact with Western society. As Western ideas spread through the region, many devout Muslims—followers of the region’s dominant religion—feared that their traditional values and beliefs were being weakened. Throughout the Middle East, new movements arose calling for a return to traditional Muslim religious laws. These movements sought to overthrow pro-Western governments in the Middle East and hoped to establish a pure Islamic society. The Muslim fundamentalist militants of these movements began using terrorism to achieve their goals.
