I am sorry to say you are wrong, but you are. In order to actually change public opinion we would have to actually see the horrors of war. This happened with Vietnam and it turned the public against the administration.
This is why in all the conflicts after this media was tightly controlled. No more pictures of dead women and blown up children for you. The devastation that has been brought upon the Palestinian people would turn even the hardest person's stomach.
Or maybe not. I just don't know anymore if people even care. Innocent's dead is just the price we pay to have a healthy and strong military. I am disgusted and you are to, but perhaps we are just in the minority now. The world force fed to us by the wealthy is not one I want to live in.
"Democrat" refers ambiguously to both the politician and party elite, and the general electorate that associates themselves with that organization. The latter is, in the majority, "against it" in the sense of responding to a survey question that they don't like it, but not nearly enough to actually do anything about it.
Whoops, my bad. Sorry I did not mean it that way anyways and I agree with you, but perhaps for different reasons.
