In this article, the author presents his views on war. According to the author total war does not require the total mobilization of public opinion. Governments do not need an aroused citizenry marching lockstep to patriotic slogans to mount an industrial war. he Despite the angry jingoism of counter demonstrators at antiwar rallies, and despite the opinion polls taking the emotional pulse of the country the night of the first bombings in Baghdad during the Persian Gulf war, the public mood in the U.S. appears more resigned than militaristic.
