lurqer: Many political commentators say that by and large, Americans support a war to disarm Saddam and force a regime change in Iraq. This is very misleading with great potential for self-deception. The “support” is not the product of carefully analyzed information. Rather, it is the product of 18 months of war propaganda by the mainstream news media, government, and advisors. With very few exceptions, the dominant messages have been the need to go to war. That is the politically correct position and it's reflected in the opinion polls. The only television program I can remember seeing in which the decision process and driving interests were placed under a microscope was a PBS Frontline special on the impact of the neoconservatives in the Defense Department on national foreign policy.
