The answer depends upon whether the war is just or not. Sometimes war is unavoidable and necessary. If the war is just and one protests against it that person is unpatriotic. However, a person might still value religious or moral or personal views higher than patriatism.

Protesting unjust wars is not unpatriotic.

Clearly the key is to know what is just and unjust. I would submit that there are clear cut cases of just wars such as WWII. Unjust wars are usually much more difficult to judge, especially at the time that the conflict took place.

Why do you think the committee on public information portrayed people who were against the war as being unpatriotic?

The Committee on Public Information (CPI) portrayed anti-war individuals as unpatriotic to foster a unified national sentiment during World War I. By framing dissent as a threat to national security and morale, the CPI aimed to suppress opposition and rally public support for the war effort. This strategy helped to instill a sense of duty and loyalty among citizens, which was crucial for maintaining enlistment and financial backing for the war. Moreover, labeling dissenters as unpatriotic served to marginalize their views and discourage public debate.
