I accept that the U.S.A. Has a mission. A. What is the basis of that mission?B.

What are the 5 consequences of this? Formulating this basic question was far from easy. The word 'mission' has a lot of meanings and I - being a Dutchman living in Spain - have dealt with this 'mission-idea' also with American-educated management.

But I never got a satisfying answer of the most important consequences neither for U.S.A.- citizens nor for non-U.S.A. Citizens and their country or nation. You are of course completely free to answer whatever you like. But, please, if you do keep to my scheme:Part A.

Is the question: What is the basis of that mission? (You could read it and ONLY FOR INSTANCE as 'Who invented this word, when and where was it used for the first time, when was it implemented etcetera?)Part B: What are the five (5) consequences of this mission? This phrase should be followed by: for U.S.A. Citizens and non-U.S.A.Citizens and their nations or countries.

The United States seeks to fulfill old promises made in the Monroe and Truman Doctrines Part A: This is a fairly simple explanation. If I understand your meaning correctly you want to understand the basis behind American policy. Our general policy follows two objectives.

We first attempt to secure our own fortune. Then we seek to secure peace for others within our reasonable reach. I'll give you the short story before the long explanation.

Basically we usually act externally to spread freedom when it is possible. This is complicated by the other million factors of the world though, as we try to balance the economy, world opinion, and defense alongside this mission. The short story is that we are a people who came from independent stock and that general thought has guided us for generations.

When possible we try to spread such independence to others, but things in diplomacy always get messy. I think that our current state is simply a combination of our entire history. We started off as a ragtag group of individuals who wanted freedom from oppressive religious and cultural rule.

We struggled to carve out a piece of the New World for ourselves and eventually felt like we were ready to stand on our own two feet. Britain disagreed and the Revolutionary War started. We undertake the Great Experiment and carve our a successful republic basic in equal power after years of hardship.

Then it was time to look outward. In the early 1800s politicians wished to begin to take an active part in foreign policies. Our first attempts were an aggressive response to attempts to subjugate America again.

The wars with the Barbary Pirates and the XYZ Incident with France had people crying "Millions for defense but not a penny for tribute. " This attitude eventually led to the Monroe Doctrine in 1823 which effectively told Europe to stay out of South America. It would be awhile before we'd be able to make good on the promise but we eventually grow enough. The next era focused on internal issues with the Civil War and the Reconstruction afterward.

We understandably focused inward as the wounds of war healed. This wasn't really broken until we dropped Isolationist views to join WWI and WWII. WWII set a lot of the basics for later world policy as we happily handed weapons to the Allies while trying to claim neutrality.

The Pearl Harbor attack removed any debate and actively forced us into the war. After the victory it was time to take charge and attempt to stabilize the world to make sure a conflict of that scale didn't happen again. The refusal of the US to actively involve themselves in the reconstruction post-WWI was partially responsible for WWI.

The point is that we stopped our isolation practices and entered the world. The Cold War happens and we pass the Truman Doctrine which promises to "support free peoples who are resisting attempted subjugation by armed minorities or by outside pressures. "This basically forms the basis of current politics.

The Cold War ends after adventures in Vietnam and Korea. There is no great enemy to face so time is spent on smaller venues. Hence you have both instances in Iraq and the assistance in Afghanistan.

Part B: 1. The first consquence is pretty obvious. The United States has made a lot of enemies through its practices.

The road to hell is paved with good intentions. Things have gone wrong in the past and we've placed ourselves in no-win situations. This creates a lot of enemies in the world.

There are those who believe we've overstepped our boundaries (such ideas are justified in some cases) and those who despise the threat we pose to their power. 2. The second is death.

Many Americans have died from these policies. Occasionally the tree of liberty must be watered with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is a sad truth of the world, especially since it isn't always just patriots and tyrants.3.

The third is a failing image. The complications in Iraq and in general world policy has really brought the image of the USA down a notch. The old leader of the Western allies is now the stumbling giant about ready to fall, and everybody can see it.

This will cause increased boldness from other large countries as the power vacuum is filled.4. The fourth is instability in many areas. The world is split over the issues surrounding US policy.It has become a divisive factor.

Worse, it can act as a call to action to more radical countries who become united against a common foe.5. I'll end on a positive note. The last is a state of hope.

The actions of the US may have lead to war and death but it has allowed liberty to come to oppressed areas. The actions in Iraq and Afghanistan have caused trouble in the short term, but there is considerable hope that a prosperous phoenix may rise from the ashes. Sources: This is my opinion .

2 The United States has many missions, you are going to have to be more specific. If this is a homework assignment, it is a pretty sloppy one. How would the pursuit of that mission affect the people of the United States, the people of Spain and the rest of the world.

3 I don't think this sounds like a homework assignment--I think it sounds sincere. But although I appreciate the difficulty of formulating the question, I agree that it needs more work. As galileogirl (great name...) points out, we need to know what the asker means by "mission."

What mission? Nonproliferation of nuclear weapons? The spread of democracy?

Raising the standard of living of people in the third world (after we eliminate poverty in the U.S. --ha! )? Erradicating AIDS in Africa? Protecting the existence and efficacy of the United Nations?

Prevention of another world war? Creating new ways to obtain energy that don't pollute the planet? Or something else..

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
