You may disagree with that decision, but surely you can see the reasoning behind it.
Perhaps I was using the wrong words when I said it was nonsensical. It does make sense on it's own but the problem is that there's a whole other host of factors that aren't being taken into account, such as public perception and what the general perception of the sacrifices they made was. It just doesn't make sense to me that a country could so easily reverse it's position after making so many sacrifices for it. Making a country suffer for it's ideals rarely ever has the effect of making the country drop said ideals. Imo, it's the opposite that usually happens. People hold those ideals even harder and focus blame to the outside threat. The whole thing just feels too forced. I can see the reasoning behind it but not to point where there'd be virtually no challenge and dissent.
