Some time ago, one of the Americans on this list wrote that he had yet to meet one person that supported the war. I got an email from San Antonio, Texas, today that contained this: "There is one thing here in the media that really makes me wonder: Some surveys say that 70% of the american population is "pro war" (so only 30% are against the war). I don't know - If I think about the people that I know, I don't think this is realistic. Maybe the other way around - 30% pro war, that might be right. I am talking about Texas, the ultra-conservativ state! I even know a considerable number of military people, since the military is the second largest industry here in San Antonio (...and a lot of cyclists & runners that we know are military). But even with these people - they are real humans with very diverse opinions!" The guy sent this email to so many it people it could have been a mailing list. So I feel free to quote it here. These are subjective impressions, of course. Not exactly statistically relevant. Still, makes me wonder: How many Americans really support the war?
