I wonder.... After all, once you understand the committment, and your understand the intent, you are left with no other conclusion but the insistence on their elimination. There is no other logical conclusion. (I'm open to hear it if someone has one.)
Of course, it always has been and always will be possible to delude one's self to reality. It's not helpful. But, it is possible.
I don't think people want to deal with the reality of what the only viable solution may end up being.
See what I mean?
