Yeah, I don't know if it's a question of awareness that folks just aren't as plugged into this as some on the right are, or whether there's just not a very coherent case in their view to be made right now.
I mean, this is a regime that did just kill thousands of their own people in protests.
So that makes it slightly more difficult to oppose military action against Iran.
You know, I think that there's
very often a skittishness for folks who've been in DC a long time to get on the other side of military action before it happens to oppose something that's looming.
But I don't think, and again, we talked about this at the beginning, I don't think there's been very much public debate or congressional debate around whether we should or should not be entering into a pretty significant military action with Iran.
I think
There's been plenty of signs for a while now that we might be moving in this direction.
And I don't think maybe it's that there's so much else happening.
We had Minneapolis.
We had Epstein.
We've had any number of issues for people in Congress and for the public to be focusing on.
But I certainly have not seen the kind of robust public debate that you might expect before a major U.S.
And one that Venezuela came, you know, that was capturing Maduro.
There was some debate ahead of time, but that was sort of a snap of the finger.
We got him.
Whoa.
Everybody woke up afterwards and said, was this the right thing to do?
Was it not?
Attacking Iran, you know, with the two aircraft carriers that we've been moving into place for a long time should not be a surprise to anybody sitting in Washington.
