The Powell Doctrine:

"Military action should be used only as a last resort and only if there is a clear risk to national security by the intended target; the force, when used, should be overwhelming and disproportionate to the force used by the enemy; there must be strong support for the campaign by the general public; and there must be a clear exit strategy from the conflict in which the military is engaged."

In what universe does "less than 10 percent" equal "strong support for the campaign by the general public"?
