H1110 CONTAINMENT POLICY
Here is your goal for this lesson:
Write a report analyzing the Cold War policy of containment
Many Americans have questioned whether fighting a full-scale war against China or a war of containment was the best policy for fighting the Korean War. Using the Internet, library, and other sources, research how Truman and MacArthur differed over strategy in fighting the Korean War. After analyzing each position, determine whether Truman or MacArthur had the best strategy.
In an essay of approximately 350-400 words: • State why you believe Truman or MacArthur had the best strategy in fighting the Korean War. • Give your reasons and arguments for the position you have chosen and make your arguments as convincing as possible. • Does it appear to you that either strategy is based upon biblical principles? In what way and which principles are given expression by the policy or strategy?

    Generally summarizing the Korean War as in Blair’s Forgotten War – At the end of World War II the western half of the world (the Capitalist side) and the eastern half of the world (the Communist side) divided the Korean peninsula into two nations, the northern half communist and the southern half American occupied and capitalist. The two nations were divided at the 38th parallel. The Korean War itself began when the communist North Koreans invaded their South Korean neighbors by advancing over the 38th parallel boundary, on the 28th of June 1951 when the North Korean army, using Russian equipment and advisors, had conquered much of South Korea, a poorly equipped and poorly led U.S. Army came to the rescue of the South Koreans. President Truman had basically stripped the U.S. Army’s equipment and manpower down to nothing for budget reasons, believing that his military advisors spoiled, dumb, and “big spenders”, (sparing no expense to win a battle). Truman believed that he could do better than any military official. General Douglas MacArthur, on whom Blair spares no criticism, had been overseeing the occupation of Japan, and was a decorated general during WWII in the Pacific theater, he was the obvious choice to be appointed commander of the U.S. forces which were to hold back the North Korean army at Pusan – the tip of the Korean peninsula. MacArthur was in command of…

    The Truman Doctrine, the Marshall Plan, NATO, support for Chiang Kai-shek in China, and the American response to the North Korean invasion were all based on the foreign policy of containment in hopes that the United States could create a way to eliminate the threat of anymore Soviet expansion.

    MacArthur set forth with a plan that would halt the North Korean advance with a counterattack then cut off their forces with an amphibious landing which we perfected during his time a commander in the Pacific during WWII. Unfortunately, this relied on reinforcements first to come from the United States. The idea of an amphibious landing behind the enemy lines would go on hold till the U.S. commanders could figure out what to do with the North Korean forces that were pushing them further and further south. It would be General of the Army Omar Bradley (1893 – 1981) who would first bring the nuclear option to the table on 9 July 1950 but received no support.…

    My thought on what was the best strategy of who could have won the war is Truman's because Mac off Arthur became so Power happy that he didn't care who he took out he just wanted to have a victory. Truman wanted it to be a silent war and Mac Arthur wanted it to be a huge war that came with a victory to no end no matter the cost. Truman wanted to Rebuff aggression in Korea and that was his only goal in the war, he didn't even want it to be a war he just wanted it to be a small battle and nothing would really come out of it- devastation wise. His only fear was that there would be a huge war and it would put them in World War II and there would be much devastation. Truman told Mac Arthur that he only wanted a silent war and they he was to follow…
