read the sentence from the article.
and they thrilled with a furtive, sensual pleasure, like schoolboys, because the jews, their business rivals, and the marxists, a vaguely defined minority of people who didnt concern them, had been satisfactorily found guilty of the defeat and the inflation and were going to catch it.
which phrase from the article best emphasizes what the author means by \satisfactorily\?
smiled approvingly
spied on germans
military elite
encountered very little opposition

Explanation:

The word "satisfactorily" implies that the outcome was acceptable or met expectations. "Encountered very little opposition" suggests that the process of finding the Jews and Marxists guilty was without significant resistance, which aligns with the idea of a satisfactory (unobstructed) outcome. "Smiled approvingly" is more about a facial expression and less about the ease or lack of opposition in the situation. "Spied on Germans" is completely unrelated to the context of finding someone guilty. "Military elite" is a group and not relevant to the meaning of "satisfactorily" in this context.

Answer:

encountered very little opposition
