No..they are not prepared to watch as angel flights arrive with flag covered coffins arrive.
But the SOBs will sure cheer the cause of it all on.
They will cheer as other mothers and fathers children are sent to die for their selfish and cult fantasies.
Per my last question, is the general population psychologically prepared for even moderate casualty levels (several hundred dead in a week for instance)? The answer is, I think mixed, The US would employ the completely volunteer regular military at first and then use mobilized individual and unit sized National Guard and Reserve formations as the regulars were attritted. Remember with the regulars less than one in a hundred US citizens affected as family members of a service member so that s an almost nonexistent metric. Especially as the left liberal media and academic and entertainment cultures are signed on for fighting the ‘The Hitler like Putin’. Instead of the usual screaming and posturing past conflicts that were not woke approved produced these people would be spinning up the biggest frenzy of unhinged jingo propaganda since the US entered World War One. Soldiers, the objects of hatred and scorn by the menbers of the political religion of liberalism would endlessly praising ‘our heroic soldiers’ non stop. With Guard and Reserve mobilization more normal Americans will be impacted but casualties will have to get really high to make this really bite in fly over country. Americans who do try to oppose this conflict will find out that ‘peace protestors’ will suddenly be very unpopular for the woke war. Indeed people protesting and using such common slogans as ‘give peace a chance’ will be called traitors and Russian agents and will be attacked by suddenly patriotic ANTIFA and BLM types. There will have to be real large scale mass actions as well as later deploying Guard and rserve units refusing en mass callup notices to really get the attention of the Beltway Wizards of Smart. Even then the initial response will be to unleash the FBI and the other three letter agencies to mass incarcerate ‘Russian agents’ as was done with Jan 6 protesters to try to terrorize thed anti-war movement.
