Korean War

The United States and the Soviet Union have very different ideologies. The United States wants everyone to be free and not have to worry. The Soviet Union wants their government to have total control over their people. This was one thing that caused the United States to get involved with the Korean War. We wanted to stop the spread of Communism. But this apposed trouble. General MacArthur wanted to use nuclear weapons and wanted to kill everyone. Most of the United States people loved MacArthur. This caused problems with President Harry Truman. He wanted to fire MacArthur but he knew this would cause the people to get very angry. Finally Korea and the United States talked it out in peace.
