Iraq was also offered up to an angry nation and we took the bait. Now most regret it.
We did? Gung ho on Afghanistan, for sure. But Iraq?
I didn't see that, hell yeah, get 'em boys attitude, coming from the great unwashed.

A lot of people were convinced the government (Bush/State Dept/Pentagon/CIA), knows more than we do, so if they say we must, we must. Then of course there's the old saw.... even if you don't like the war, you're a scum sucking dog if you don't support our troops. That's a backhanded way of coercing people into not being vocal or demonstrating against the war.
