Because the American people have been given stagecraft and promises, it may poll well. So did Iraq II because the Iraqis had "WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION" when the stage managers knew they didn't. It's a huge and high-stakes public relations campaign that convinces the public at large to support war. It happened before WWI. Americans weren't particularly interested in committiung troops to a war in Europe...not until the spinmasters created enough fear to sway public opinion. Afghan war popular. Bullshit.
