Some knew of the folly.....
You say that Americans "went along with the war dutifully, in deference to a patriotic appeal they neither accepted nor rejected. This was not a hot-blooded war. It was one we sleepwalked into.", but I'd like to point out that millions in the U.S. and around the world spoke out/demonstrated against the launching of this insane war, but were ignored. Many of the mainstream news agencies at the time in the U.S. chose to portray the crowds that turned out as being smaller in number than was later determined.
We have been and are still being fed a lot of misinformation in this country. I'm not even sure I trush NPR any more. People wake up before it's too late.
As for Bush's faith, deliver me from people of his ilk--our children will be paying for their delusional thinking for decades to come.
