The Formation of NATO

1. Look at Source 2. What did NATO members agree to do?   
NATO members agreed to try to resist armed attack and also agreed to recognize that if one country is attacked, all countries in alliance with the country are going to be "attacked" meaning it would turn into some type of world war because of all the different countries involved.
2. The members of NATO argued that this was a defensive alliance. Explain why Stalin was not convinced about this.   
Stalin was not convinced that this was a defensive alliance because in reality "US forces could resist any advance which Stalin might make" meaning Stalin was probably more convinced that this was just a way for the US to wimp out. He was also concerned that NATO was going to attack the German Democratic Republic.
3. Study the cartoon in Source 4. Does the cartoon give the impression that Stalin feels threatened by NATO?    
based on source 4, i do bot believe Stalin felt threatened by NATO because he seems to be relaxed and eating some semblance of a sanwich. If he was actually worried, he probably wouldn;t be eating a sandwhich and would have a much more firhgtened or threatened look on his face compared to source 4.
4. Explain how Sources 4 and 5 present NATO in different ways.  
In source 4, NATO is represented as a group of people, which is much ore realistic and less threatening than source 5. Source 5 represents NATO as a viscious dog, and much more violent compared to source 4.
5. Now explain why they present NATO in different ways.    
^same?
These two sources represent NATO in similar ways because in both sources, the Soviet Union or Stalin is seen sort of alone and on it's on. There is a similarity in how these two represent how NATO is sort of after Stalin and/or the Soviet Union as well. This is shown in source 5 as a dog, and in source 4 as a big group of people against one.
