    General public opinion in the USA

    Can I ask anyone from the US what the majority public opinion on the war in iraq is? If the majority support it or not etc..


    Here in the UK I would say around 70% dont support it. But then again, thats just my generation, im not sure about the older people etc..

    It's weird sometimes because considering the USA is our main ally, there seems to be a lot of general dislike towards them.. Not the people, just the government.. Well sometimes the people which is pretty fucked up. Its hard to explain. Lots of people dont want to get into another war so they want to distance us from the USA. Longterm, good idea maybe.. If the UK becomes less of a wannabe powerhouse then maybe we wont get fucked if a 3rd world war comes around..

    I think it's safe to say that support for the war is flagging as evidenced by Bush's all-time low approval ratings and the Democratic victories in Congress recently.

    I've been against the Iraq invasion for a long time, not because I'm a peacenik but because I think the US has bigger fish to fry with bin-Laden and Afghanistan, where the Taliban is steadily gaining control again.

    We are undoubtedly at war, but not with Iraq. We need to focus on the real terrorists and regain worldwide support.

    Yes, let's focus on the real terrorists: the global elite.

    The "War on Terror" itself is used as a device of control, to put fear into us - so that when shit hits the fan, all the people go begging to the government to keep them safe, even if it means the loss of liberty. This War on Terror can never end, because terrorism doesn't end. You can't go to war with the idea of terrorism - it will always persist. Nobody should be supporting it, because with a never-ending war like this, the ending of our liberties is perpetual.

    The War on Terror and the war in Iraq are not what they seem! If you support it, you're supporting the end of our freedoms.

    We're not even looking for Osama Bin Laden. And not to mention that he is merely a scapegoat to cover up who really planned 9/11: the global elite.

    We're harboring the terrorists, and we fund terrorism.

    Ultimately, question authority.

    A majority of American voters think that the initial invasion was a bad idea (the opposite was true in 2003), and the same majority wants a gradual troop withdrawal to begin immediately. Only a delusioned base of fundamentalists and aristocrats, about 25-30% of those polled, continues to stand behind the President.

    Biggest foreign policy disaster in recent history.

    I don't know of anybody that supports Bush, yet I know too many people that voted his butt back in! I did NOT vote for Pres. Bush as I know he doesn't give a rat's ass about what the people want. He seems to be more of a dictator to me than anything else.

    I will always support our troops, but the president can go f himself! I think Bush would have been a better comedian than a president....he's already a joke!

    Just keep in mind that most of us want his ass out of office. Hate the leader, not the led! England rocks, America rocks, it's our governments that suck! :jointsmile:

    the americans need this war to keep those fucks busy from attacking north america and the civillians. better them blowing themselves up where they live then where innocent people live. i hope the war ends soon, and i hope we keep destroying the terrorist foundation. i know for a fact from friends in war, what the media tells you is a completely different story. we are getting the higher ups in their militia, and they are being taken down. It will take a while, but we will win.

    You mean that it will end when our government decides for it to end, right? This war is perpetual, you can't kill an idea. Terrorism is an idea, and there will always be people who want to commit atrocities. America does not need this war, it's a war that cannot be won. The war in Iraq certainly is part of the "war on terror," even though it has nothing to do with terrorists, but rather the control of Iraq and its natural resources. It also expands the sphere of influence of the US government. Don't fall for the bullshit that "we need this war" - we don't. There will be another terrorist attack, but it won't be because of Osama Bin Laden, or any middle-eastern terrorists. You've fallen victim to propaganda, my friend, and I'm sorry to know that you have. Please understand that the terrorists that you "know of," are merely manufactured. It was created by people who want to control you, and everyone else. Looks like they're doing a good job. Please, please stop spreading the idea that we need this war. We don't need more brainwashed people - we already have too many.
