13. Plus there's the whole cognitive dissonance thing
How do you justify putting your life at risk for a cause you don't believe in? How do you justify sending your husband/wife/child who signed up before the war started off to war for a lost cause?
I always cut troops and their families a lot of slack when I hear them interviewed, and they support the war. They sort of have to think that way in order to stay sane.
It's the civilians who support the war that are the crazy ones. And those who enlisted after the war started.
