    vast majority in many of our allies

    Not in Spain, it was not. I think the biggest demonstrations ever recorded in Spain to this day are the ones of those days, saying a very clear NO TO WAR. The president still sent the army any fucking way.

      the vast majority of the US, and many of our allies, were on board for an invasion of the Middle East (Afghanistan) in 2001 after 9/11.

      Spain did support the US in the war in Afghanistan after 2001. They did not support the invasion of Iraq in 2003.
