Record number think Iraq war a mistake - Post Media Reply
MORE than 70 per cent of Americans now think the war in Iraq was a mistake and are pessimistic about its outcome, a new poll shows.
Seventy-six per cent of Americans think the war is going badly, up ten percentage points in one month, according to the CBS News/New York Times opinion poll.

Sixty-one per cent of those polled said the United States should have stayed out of Iraq, with only 35 per cent saying the invasion was the right thing to do.
 
You learn in computer programing...."Garbage in ; garbage out"
The polls you quote are fairly accurate..... but ask yourself where do the people in these polls get their information to form their opinion....... if the information is wrong then the opinion will be wrong also

I do not rely on the media form my information.....I get it from MANY sources including troops on the ground

EXAMPLE: A news reporter was given TOTAL access to all the reports on the repair of the Iraqi infrastructure..... ( I can give you the data if you like......how many hospitals .....the health of the citizens.....EVERYTHING)..... some of the information was poor BUT the majority of the data is VERY good.... the TRUTH would change the minds of many Americans about the war if they knew it...... but the reporter decided it was too good.....he wrote his story using TWO YEAR OLD INFORMATION.....because......"it made a better story"
The American public does not know the REAL Iraq story......so their opinion poll is not valid except as a testimony to media bias
 
I find this very funny. When it started people just wanted to go on war and kick the butts there. But when they found nothing, companies kept moving abroad and they lost jobs THEN citizens thought it was a mistake.

Even with Afghanistan.
When the towers were hit, there was almost 90% of American said that "we should get out their and kick some butts". Well, whose butt is kicked?

We, Indian are also against the terrorism, but United States just does NOT know how to deal with them.

America is new to terrorism alright. We have been fighting terrorist for over 100 years.

Just having soooo many Mil. power just makes you World Power on paper.
 
I have not changed my mind I was always against it.We went in wrong,we went in weak and it will never get better.
