National Guard of the United States

Department of Homeland Security is a good insurance that we will not let down our guard and become complacent.

quite polarized. Arguing over who best represented the people and practiced democracy, the Jacksonian Democrats and Whigs were two of the most prominent political parties at the time.

Major countercultures full of sex, love, and rock n’ roll were on the rise, 18 year olds were being sent to Vietnam, and blacks were fighting for their freedom. Conflict in Vietnam began due to the Tonkin Gulf incident, and our rationale for war was the domino theory. Not long after the start of the war, the antiwar movement had already begun, and it would only grow larger and larger. People in the United States were so against the war…

overplayed his hand and dissolved Parliament and the Shah had not delivered an address from Baghdad announcing that he had signed the decrees. Mossadegh, confident that he had succeeded in foiling the coup had recalled many of the troops he had assigned to guard the city of Tehran, and the CIA and General Zahedi took advantage of this fact to launch a sneak attack against Mossadegh.

spending is enormous and that it is harming the economy of the country. I also came to a conclusion that US should cut its defence budget to invest on education, public service and health.
