imagine you are an advisor for a sitting US president. You have just received word that three small boats appear to have attacked a US port. The president wants to retaliate, but you think more evidence is needed before US forces attack. What historical event could you reference to support your case best?
A.
North Korean invasion of South Korea
B.
Gulf of Tonkin incident
C.
attack on Pearl Harbor
D.
launching of Sputnik
E.
firing of General MacArthur

Answer 1

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The attack on Pearl Harbor is the best answer.

All the other incidents are not in or about US ports, they happened elsewhere. Pearl Harbor is a US port and the attack on Pearl Harbor (December 7, 1941) is the best historical event you could reference.

Answer 2

B hope this helped your doing a great job!
