All the time, just those military aged men don't call them their enemy because they know they aren't. Vietnam, Korea, Iraq, Afganistan, etc, most people don't consider the majority of those peoples the enemy whether they are fighting or not because they don't think we should have been trying to kill or subjugate them in the first place.
The goals and ideals of politicians and powermongers rarely aligns with the majority of the population.
I’d never support a repressive theocracy like the current Iranian regime and will not cheer on their propaganda operations.
But let’s not confuse this Iran conflict with a legitimate war. Only congress can declare war and appropriate funds for a war. What we have is a rogue authoritarian executive that was incompetent enough to ignore military assessments and be manipulated by Netanyahu to strike.
People should protest like there is no tomorrow when la senile demagogue is destroying the international world order, free trade and freedom of the seas. That is not the same as rooting for the enemy!

Yeah, except we’ve had that for the entirety of this century so far at least.
Yeah lol, if you're suddenly policeman of the world going after evil regimes, how is North Korea still standing? They're forced to be robots or they're killed

Haha - yes exactly.
They'd be a couple years late on that.

Maybe we need to get rid of the concept of "enemy" and "ally", as seemingly those labels matter less and less as time goes on.
Maybe one is the "enemy", and the others can be "less enemy" and "more enemy". So we're all enemies in reality, but some more enemies than others.
how about "useful" and "not useful"?
We had allies. Now they are treaty signatories asking themselves WTF?
Iran has done nothing to harm the average American. Who is the enemy, really?
Are you serious?

There are 193 countries in the world other than America and whichever country they are bombing this week.
this is where you find out you're the bad guy.
