No...the jury is still out on that one...so until I have further investigated the idea is there indeed was conflict in the catholic church about idol/image worship and their presence in the church. Be it disallowed, re-introduced or whatever. The fact that today it remains a great issue does say much in itslef..so likely will never be resolved in our lifetime as to which side of that truth one will stand on...but choose we do and I have found images/idols in most catholic churches overwhelming and not in a good way. For that matter even some of the protestant churches.
Will this be the same sort of investigation that produced the assertion that Pope Gregory III was against the use of images, that Emperor Constantine V was a pope who reigned for 60 years and that the robber council of Hieria was an accepted ecumenical council? If so you're in for a bumpy ride.
Iconoclasm was real, I don't think anyone suggests it wasn't. It was almost exclusively an eastern thing except for some confusion among the Franks during the same time. It could be said to have finally made inroads in the west following the Second Vatican Council but for aesthetic reasons among certain trendy theologians for whom iconoclasm was the least of their faults.
