1/2 of Americanns in the wake of 911 don't even want to defend America. Hard for me to believe that they would suddenly want to avenge a crater.

I disagree. I will never believe that more than 15% of the country is that self-hating, while 15% more will nod to them to be included in their "cool group". Another 15% watch too much "Oprah".

The destruction of the smug MSM is the key.

The American people are preponderantly "good" -- they believe in justice, and they will root for the underdog. Iran is far too unpalatable to win many, outside of the 30%, supporters.

I would like to agree with you, AnnaZ. 15% + 15% + 15%, no matter how misguided, is still 45%. That's a lot and I don't think anything would inspire them to jump to Israel's defense. I just don't see it.

I look at the political landscape and don't see much that gives me that confidence. Hope we don't find out.
