I think that the imperialism of many other nations was justified due to the fact that no one who was imperialized could challenge the U.S. and so the U.S could remain the dominant power, in this case Imperialism was justified for the Americans as the losses that could be sustained from imperialism helped to protect the U.S. from future threats securing American dominance for many years.

The White Mans Burden by Rudyard Kipling rewrite

# data[].attributes.body
Take up the white man's cause
send the best of your race
to send your children to war
to serve the captives needs
to wait under pressure
on natives and the uncivilized
Half devil and Half child
Take up the white man's cause
In acceptance and patience
to hide the threat of terror
and to show pride
By speaking openly and simple
hundreds of times have made us ready
To look for profit
And work for more gain

1. Burden is a thing or task that someone is accountable for, and example of burden is if you attack and break someones legs, it is a burden on your person to take responsibility for what your did.

2. Kipling Describes those being Imperialized as "Half devil Half child" and "sullen people,"  this description is not correct because around that time the Philippinian people had advanced civilization, I believe he describes the people that way as that rhetoric is the way how the British colonized their subjects and Kilpling is a fan of imperialism.

3.  I would characterize Kipling's view of Imperialism as a urge to control the world in order to ensure stability and the halting on potentialy dangerous foreign powers.

4. The White Mans burden according to Kipling was the Idea that white people should put other lesser people under their rule as they cannot make civilization due to their lesser status and there by need help by white people. This means that the burden that white people hold is to help other races that cant work on their own.
