Even here on DU there is considerable:

- support of bombing other countries for various random reasons
- willful ignorance and self-delusion about the violence Americans have perpetrated and abroad for decades

They don't know and they don't wanna know, unless the media says the scary bad guy is coming and then they're all for indiscriminate bombing.
