...showed maps of Manhatten with cocentric rings on them? Apparently there were plans on a cross-Atlantic nuclear mission had they ever gotten The Bomb.

Scary, eh?

Do you think, the soldiers, would have stopped supporting the war if he had knokwn the reality as depicted in this information? Explain.

Information( diary of a British soldier during WW1 ):

Rates bred by the tens of thousands and lived on the fat of the land. When we were sleeping in the fuk holes the things ran over us, played about, copulated and fouled our scraps of food, their young squeaking incessandtly. There was no proper system of waste disposal in trench life. Empty tins of all kinds were flung away over the top on both sides of the trench. Millions of tins were thus available for all the rats in France and Blegium in hunderds of miles of trenches. During brief moments of quiet at night, one could hear a continuous rattle of tins moving against each other. The rats were turning them over. What happened to the rats under heavy sheel-fire was a mystery, but their powers of survival kept place with each new weapon, including poison gas.

Bullets skimming the top of the brick wall took on a lighting changes of direction after they had ricocheted. In a crowded trench it was not uncommo for two or even three men to be hit by a ricochet. Jarvis was shot clean through the neck by a ricochet when standing close beside me. He bled severely, and when carted off we felt sure he was a goner, but, far from pegging out, he never got beyond the base hospital. The bullet had passed through his neck without rendering a vital part and, the wound quickly healing, he was back in the front line in a few weeks, This was tough luck really, as he deserved a spell in Britain.

Why they wanted to join the army of their country enthusiasticly?
Why the people had such an attitude towards the war?

Here is some information(based on this information and own knowledge on WWI to answer the quesetion):

This is a dairy written by a British solder, George Coppard during the WWI.

Although I seldom read a newspaper, I knew about the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand at Sarajevo. News placards screamed out at every street corner, and military bands blared out their martial music in the main streets of Croydon. This was too much for me to resist, and I knew I had to enlist straight away.

I presented myself to the recruiting segeant at Mitcham Road Barracks, Croydon. There was a steady stream of men, mostly working types, queuing to enlist. The segeant asked me my age, and when told, replied, 'Clear off son. Come back tomorrow and see if you're nineteen, eh?' So I turned up again the next day and gave my age as nineteen. I attested in a batch of a dozen others
and, holding up my right hand, swore to fight for King and Country.
