Largest protests in western history. Even in the US, where the population was pretty gaslit.
There was more opposition to that war from the start than there ever was for Vietnam.
- wombat-man 3y agoNo, the US population was in favor of the war overall, especially at the beginning. I don't know how this compares to the Vietnam war. But the Vietnam war involved conscription, so I'd bet that had more domestic opposition. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_opinion_in_the_United_States_on_the_invasion_of_Iraq https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_opinion_in_the_United_S...
