the question of whether UN forces should have invaded China

The correct answer is that the disagreement between President Truman and General MacArthur centered on the question of wheter UN forces should have invaded China or not during the Korean War.

On April 11, 1951, the President of the United States, Harry S. Truman, relieved Army General Douglas MacArthur from his post after MacArthur made public statements that contradicted the administration's policies.

MacArthur led the Allied forces in the southwestern Pacific during World War II and after the war was in charge of the occupation of Japan. When North Korea invaded South Korea in June 1950, he was assigned as commander of United Nations forces to defend South Korea. He conceived and executed the Amphibious Attack at Incheon, on September 15, 1950, for which he was hailed as a military genius. However, when he followed his victory with a full-scale invasion of North Korea by Truman's order, China intervened in the war and inflicted a series of defeats, forcing him to withdraw from North Korea.

On December 1, 1950, MacArthur was questioned by a journalist about whether restrictions on operations against Chinese forces on the other side of the Yalu River were "an obstacle to effective military operations." He replied that they were in fact "a huge disadvantage, unprecedented in military history." On December 6, Truman issued a directive that required all military officers and diplomatic officials to clarify with the State Department routine statements for all before making them public "and ... abstain from direct communications about the military or political foreign exchange with newspapers, magazines and other advertising media".

By April 1951, the military situation had stabilized, but MacArthur's public statements became increasingly irritating for Truman, so he relayed MacArthur from his term.

The Senate Armed Services Committee and the Senate Foreign Relations Committee conducted a joint investigation into the military situation and circumstances surrounding the dismissal of MacArthur and concluded that "General MacArthur's retirement was within the constitutional powers of the president, but the circumstances were a shock for National pride".

for the united states of america, 1945 to 1964 was a time of high economic growth and general prosperity. it was also a time of confrontation as the capitalist united states and its allies politically opposed the soviet union and other communist countries; the cold war had begun.
