... and unfortunately - IMHO this mindset has become an American phenomenon.
A lot of Americans were happy to get the adrenaline rush of a "war", but now are not so happy about the huge bill, in lives and money, that appears to lie ahead without end.
Just like buying stuff on the "no payments 'til January 2005" plan has played its part in wrecking the economy (it isn't just corporate malfeasance or a stock market bubble that has sunk our economy, it is massive, unprecedented consumer debt.)
So yes, I agree with you. Too many Americans have become instant gratification junkies, and this ill-conceived war is another example of it. Now that the true cost is becoming apparent, they are balking. I guess better late than never, but it is a shame so few people in this country could not see the *inevitable* outcome of this sorry war.
