Indifference is not a beginning; it is an end. And, therefore,
indifference is always the friend of the enemy, for it benefits the
aggressor - never his victim, whose pain is magnified when he
or she feels forgotten. The political prisoner in his cell, the hungry
children, the homeless refugees - not to respond to their plight,
not to relieve their solitude by offering them a spark of hope is to
exile them from human memory. And in denying their humanity,
we betray our own.

What makes North’s explanation of the Iran-Contra Affair more credible than anyone else’s in the investigation?
the answer is B
The correct option is A. By showing that the North had a central role the New York Times article supports the evidence presented in "The Iran-Contra Affair".
Impressed, Mr. Ledeen met Mr. Ghorbanifar, and this would mark the beginning of the Iran-contra affair. Well before Oliver L. North, a self-described "personal courier" for the White House, took over the Iran effort from him, a development he laments in "Perilous Statecraft," it was Mr. Ledeen who got the United States involved.
What was the purpose of the Iran Contra affair?The Boland Amendment's coverage of "any other agency or institution of the United States engaging in intelligence activities" included the National Security Council, which was the subject of a significant legal dispute at the heart of the Iran-Contra scandal.
Oliver L. North makes a point of saying that "President Reagan knew everything" about the arms-for-hostages controversy in the Iran-contra incident, although passages from the book that have been made public today mention scant and ultimately unconvincing proof.
Congress sent the Contras $25 million in humanitarian aid in August 1985, with the condition that the State Department, not the CIA or the DOD, handle the money's administration. To provide humanitarian relief, President Reagan established the Nicaraguan Humanitarian Assistance Office (NHAO).

Take up the White Man's burden -
Send forth the best ye breed -
Go, bind your sons to exile
To serve your captives' need;
To wait, in heavy harness,
On fluttered folk and wild -
Your new-caught sullen peoples,
Half devil and half child.
Take up the White Man's burden -
In patience to abide,
To veil the threat of terror
And check the show of pride;
By open speech and simple,
An hundred times made plain,
To seek another's profit
And work another's gain."

The correct answer to this open question is the following.
The Watergate scandal can be considered a sign of weakness in the American democracy & government in that it was hidden by the government officials that tried everything to maintain the issue as a secret until the Washington Post revealed the scandal. Journalists Carl Bernstein and Bob Woodward revealed that President Nixon had a role in the conspiracy and knew about the trespassing of thieves into the Democratic National Committee on June 17, 1972.
After this revelation, millions of Americans felt disillusioned with American politics and the way their officials tried to lie or manipulate the information. This scandal represented a hard hit to American politics.

Towns usually were men-only camps when they were first formed. C. Towns usually were formed by individual entrepreneurs, not companies. D. Towns had company stores, and miners were paid in scrip.

This is the statement that does not provide a characteristic of the Indian Territory's coal mining town. Mining towns were instrumental for the development of much of the United States territory. The towns allowed states to use and exploit their resources for economic benefit. These towns were often established by mining companies. Moreover, such companies then attracted workers, particularly male immigrants. This contributed to the multiculturalism of the nation by bringing in people from places such as the British Isles, Italy, Lithuania, Slovakia, Poland, Hungary, Russia, Mexico, and other countries.

Read the passage from the Houston Chronicle about air quality in Houston in 2019.
“I’m surprised and disturbed that Houston’s air quality worsened in this year’s [American Lung Association ‘State of the Air’] report,” said Luke Metzger, director of Environment Texas. “The trend since 1999 had been one of steady progress and instead now it seems we are backtracking and that’s bad news particularly for the hundreds of thousands of people who have asthma or other vulnerable populations like senior citizens. . . .”
Current models estimate that more than 60 percent of ozone pollution is from cars, according to Raun, and to address that, the city is trying to encourage practices such as the use of mass transit and transitioning to fuel-efficient or low-emission vehicles.
How is Houston trying to combat increasing ozone pollution?
by raising taxes on vulnerable populations

by encouraging use of mass transit
by prohibiting the sale of new cars
Answer:

When the U.S. first learned about the Holocaust, they:
sent troops to Europe.
asked Hitler to send Jews to the U.S.
placed an embargo on German goods.
did nothing.
Answer:
I believe it's D.
Explanation:
The US was kept in the dark about the extent of the atrocities committed during the Holocaust. Technically, the US did place an embargo on German good, but that was because of the war they were fighting against the Germans at the time, not really because of the Holocaust itself. After the war and more vivid details about the Holocaust were revealed, the US was heavily scrutinized for not getting more involved.
