Iron Curtain• British prime minister Winston
Churchill’s “Iron Curtain” speech (1946) illustrated the division within Europe at that time. Following World War II, Europe had clearly been divided into two political and economic systems supported by two superpowers, the Soviet Union and the
United States.
• In his speech, Churchill described the conflict this way: “From Stettin in the Baltic to Trieste in the Adriatic, an iron curtain has descended across the Continent.” Churchill was outlining the ideological conflict between Soviet Communism and democratic capitalism

• America decides to end its isolationist policy. No longer will they tuck their head in the sand and ignore what is going on in the world.
• now they will practice a policy of containment - to “contain” the communists to their side of the world/ iron curtain.
• this will entail lots of economic aid - lots and lots of money to help rebuild the economies- because poor countries where bread is rationed and there are no factories tend to go communist

McCarthyism or the Red Scare Joe McCarthy, a junior US senator, began a witch hunt for communists. Everyone was afraid of being turned in as a communist. People feared to be independent or different.

Joe McCarthy- Jr. Senator from Wisconsin - looking for a political cause
Wheeling, W. Va; speaking to the Women’s Republican ClubHolding up some papers and shouting: “I have here in my hand a list of 205- a list of names that were made known to the Secretary of State as being members of the Communist Party and who nevertheless are still working and shaping policy in the State Dept.”Next day, in Salt Lake City, McCarthy claimed he had a list of 57 (numbers kept changing) such Communists in the State Dept.
Shortly afterward, on the Senate floor, he appeared with 100 dossiers from the State Dept loyalty files. The files were 3 years old and most of the people no longer worked for the State Dept but he claimed they were, “Communistically inclined” or active traveler became, “active Communist” and so on

McCarthyism or the Red Scare
Congress created a special committee to investigate people. Especially the Hollywood people. It was called HUAC
The Red Scare ended when McCarthy accused the army of being communist (that was too much)

McCarthyismMickey Spillane published in 1951 One Lonely Night (3 million copies sold) in which the hero, Mike Hammer, says:
“I killed more people tonight than I have fingers on my hands. I shot them in cold blood and enjoyed every minute of it...They were Commies...red sons-of-bitches who should have died long ago....”

In the Six Day War of June 1967, Israel defeated the combined armies of Egypt, Syria and Jordan, capturing the West Bank, East Jerusalem, the Gaza Strip, the Golan Heights and the Sinai Peninsula. For Israel, it was a stunning triumph; for Arabs, a humiliating defeat.
Israel no longer occupies the Sinai or Gaza, but its continued hold over the other territories has stymied efforts to bring comprehensive peace to the Middle East.

Non Alignment Mov’tThe movement was
originally motivated by the founder- member countries’ desire not to be drawn into the Cold War ideological and military confrontation. However, this idealistic obsession of these leaders soon gave way to the global realpolitik realities and all these countries became to be known as closely aligned with the former Soviet Union.Nasser of Egypt
