Donald Trump’s decision to go to war with Iran has led to the lowest public opinion rating of support for any war since World War II.
Statistics show the following, according to a NY Times survey:
World War II 1941–97 percent
Afghanistan War 2001–92 percent
Persian Gulf War 1991–82 percent
Panama Intervention 1989–80 percent
Iraq War 2003–76 percent
Korean War 1950–75 percent
Vietnam War Escalation 1965-60 percent
Kosovo Intervention 1999–58 percent
Grenada Intervention 1983–53 percent
Libya Intervention 2011–47 percent
Iran War 2026–41 percent
With no plan, no clearcut understanding why diplomacy was abandoned by Donald Trump, Pete Hegseth, and Marco Rubio, America is now in a crisis of rising oil and gasoline prices, and lack of support from usual allies in wartime.
And Iran is now blockading the Strait of Hormuz, through which 20 percent of all oil worldwide is transported, a major crisis!
