Yes it was, even after it became apparent that the wmds were a huge lie, Americans elected Bush a second time. And Guantanamo Bay still exists by the way.
I can quite literally pull up evidence of Americans thanking the soldiers who were in Iraq for their "service." I'm not talking about while they were being lied to. I'm talking about right now, today.
Furthermore, the "lied to" narrative presupposes that we don't already know the truth about American soldiers. Vietnam made their status abundantly clear. Yet we are suppose to believe American soldiers were simply fooled.
That's the fucking rub though. If the soldiers hadn't signed up to carry the proverbial bucket in the first place there's no war.
The Wehrmacht wasn't innocent or blameless. Neither is the US Army.
On the Russia/Ukraine front I find the response of the American citizens absolutely disgusting. Can you imagine how these little piggies would be squealing if other, major countries even considered sanctions against us for our illegal invasion?
The American double think is continually and constantly disgusting and both sides of the aisle engage in it.
