prudence -- now there's an idea.

The media tell us that there is wide popular support for the use of military action -- for the sake of argument, let's say that is true. But why do people support attacking a country that is not currently attacking anyone else? what's the real reason?

Does the man in the street really view Sadam as a threat to their own lives?? Or are they simply hopeful that war will be fiscally stimulative and that oil prices will come down??

This is a puzzle for me -- have you seen any articles that analyze popular support and why it is there??
