Leaving the rest alone, I guess I would leave the focus of my quote on the "absolutely" part of "absolutely opposed". Absolutes are for extremists.
Actually, I'll add that I do like your point about how people don't necessarily support what they don't necessarily know, though I'll add that they don't necessarily want to know.
Believe me, 95% of this country doesn't want to know what our G is doing to our own inner cities, so I can't imagine that they
really want to know what our G is doing in other countries.
