Just want to get some perspective on what people think of the American reaction. I’m NOT asking if it will happen. I’m asking what do you think Americans will do, if anything if this happens. Do you think people will just not care or protest on the streets?

Edit: What would your reaction would be? (even if not American)

      Not yet. This is not over until the US/world economy collapse or USA regains control of the strait. I agree with you that the war is lost, but Americans don’t know it yet because everything seems normal…

        They know it, but refuse to see the truth.

        You can’t blame them, it’s because of too many Hollywood movies

          Most Americans literally do not know.

          Mainstream news won’t report on any of our bases being attacked. Our government, as well as governments of countries in which our bases are located, is suppressing any information about those attacks.

          I just met a guy from Bahrain who said people who took photos or video of the base there were getting arrested, phones confiscated, etc. It’s not in our news at all, and the military won’t release any information other than saying the base is currently inoperable.
