A majority of the American public, polls suggest, have been against the ongoing US-Israeli military campaign in Iran from the day it started.
Republicans, however, have largely stuck by their president as the war approaches the end of its fourth week.
But that may be changing.
At the annual Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in Texas, some of the party faithful expressed concern about why the US started this war, how Donald Trump is going to end it and whether the effort has been worth the costs.
"I just wish that there was more transparency on why we're doing what we're doing, that way you could send your loved one overseas and be OK with that," said Samantha Cassell.

You need to use search. This thread already exists.
BBC is wishful thinking.
I’m surprised no one pinged it to me!😅 Mods can merge , etc?
As are many Freepers, apparently.
They don’t merge. They usually delete the non-original thread.
BBC is lying. I believe none of these Legacy Media propaganda outlets.
Yea, the website is antiquated. I offered multiple times to partner or buy the website from Jim Rob but it didn’t happen. I think it’s sad that the site has been left stale for so long. Unwilling to make the effort to modernize and attempt to pull in the conservative male youth at the very minimum. We need to reach Gen Z and Gen Alpha but management doesn’t see it.
The entire EU and UK have TDS.
They are armchair quarterbacks and shitty ones at that!
They’re afraid of the islamic filth they’ve taken into their countries.
Cowards with big mouths.
They want us to destroy Putin, but when we remove crazy ayatollahs with nukes, they’re aghast.
If the BBC says it’s so, it must be true, right?
Bombing iran, Bombing iranian mullahs, Bombing iranian revolutionary guards, Bombing iranian revolutionary guards religious police........
There’s no down side....
