That would also include those on the left who had any political sense. We didn't just think. It wasn't just a probability. It was as clear as the fact that on the average in temperate northern hemisphere climes May is a warmer month than January. It is simply absurd to argue that there was any doubt.
The same actual doubt has existed from the beginning: Why is the U.S. ruling class, on the whole, going along with, even vigorously supporting, this nonsense? I don't think a fully satisfactory answer to that question is available yet.
