    and :

    "Support for the U.S. military conflict with Iran remains low, with only 33% to 37% of Americans approving of the military strikes, according to nationwide polls.

    Key metrics from the latest polling include:

    Approval: Just 33% to 37% of respondents approve of U.S. military strikes against Iran.

    Disapproval: Roughly 59% to 62% of Americans oppose the conflict or disapprove of President Trump's handling of the situation." [Google AI Overview]

    this seems highly doubtful... the POTUS is already under pressure following the 2 deaths at the US base in Jordan...

    also :

    "The Harvard CAPS/Harris Poll is not officially affiliated with either political party, but it has a documented house effect that often skews more favorably toward conservative politicians and Republican talking points than other national surveys." [Google AI Overview]

    good luck with that... at least provide some sort of argumentation maybe ?

    the institutions that have been put in place to deliver order and justice (e.g. the ICJ, the ICC, the UNSC, ...) at the international level sorely need upgrading and upfunding... the systems mostly work, though reforms are needed (e.g. UNSC vetoes), but for now their responses seem way too slow, and the public are understandably wary of investing their faith in them...

    the problem is not the people themselves, but some of the ideology, parts of the culture, some of the aims and methods, the atrocious operations and crimes, and similar actions and attitudes along those lines... vilifying people as "nazis" misses the mark when the problem is actually the nazism...

  • @frightful_hobgoblin

    it depends on who you're refering to through the "we"...

    and it seems like at least some of "they" needed not merely to be told, but to experience that first hand...
