Which event resulted in President Johnson sending additional troops to Vietnam without a formal declaration of war?Gulf of Tonkin incident

Operation Rolling Thunder

election of 1964

Viet Cong invasion in 1965

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

The right answer is Gulf of Tonkin incident. Johnson told a national television audience that on August 2 and 4, North Vietnamese vessels had attacked two U.S. destroyers, the Maddox and the C. Turner Joy, in the Gulf of Tonkin, off the coast of North Vietnam. Johnson described the attack, called the Gulf of Tonkin incident, as unprovoked. The Tonkin Gulf resolution authorized the president to take all necessary measures to repel any armed attack against the forces of the United States and to prevent further aggression. Only Senator Wayne Morse of Oregon and Senator Ernest Gruening of Alaska voted against the resolution, which Johnson thereafter interpreted as equivalent to a congressional declaration of war. Soon after his landslide victory over Goldwater in November 1964, Johnson, while still plagued by private doubts, made the crucial decisions that committed the United States to a full-scale war in Vietnam for the next four years.

Answer 2
Answer: The answer would be : Gulf of Tonkin Incident

The incident became really complicated because both side of Vietnam and United states claimed that they were being attacked first. According to US' report, the ships from the northern Vietnam were the first one who opened the fire. Using this report as a basis, in the end President Johnson action was justificated

What was the main role of parliament during the reign of Edward I? What was the early structure of the parliament and how did it influence the structure of Congress today in the US

Answers

Answer:

The parliament established in the reign and Edward I had duties aimed at collecting taxes established by the king, approving or disapproving taxes.

The English parliament is divided into two chambers. One of them is considered as upper chamber and is formed by the lord's chamber. The other has a lower character and is formed by the chamber of commons. This influenced the construction of the US Congress, which is also divided into two chambers. The superior is composed by the congress and the inferior is composed by the house of representatives.

Explanation:

The Parliament of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is the main legislative body in England. It is an ancient institution, changing its structure and functions over the years.

The existence of parliament was fundamental to the creation of the palarmentarist monarchy, limiting the monarchy's power and establishing a more egalitarian government with less abuse of power. Currently, the parliament has parliamentary sovereignty and can interfere in all the political spheres of the united kingdom.

The structure of parliament has directly influenced the construction of the American national congress and has influenced many countries around the world.
