C'mon Tom....
Go look at world approval polls dated after 9/11, right before the lead-up to the Iraq war, and then after the Iraq war.
You will see 9/11-ish higher than before 9/11ish, then a drop in the lead up to the Iraq war, followed by it dropping like a stone when we went to war.
Or is that all just related to solar flares?
