Iraq dominated the headlines throughout the fall of 2002 and into the winter of 2003. Public opinion on the wisdom of war, however, stabilized relatively early and slightly in favor of war. Gallup found that from August 2002 through early March 2003 the share of Americans favoring war hovered in a relatively narrow range between a low of 52 percent and a high of 59 percent. By contrast, the share of the public opposed to war fluctuated between 35 percent and 43 percent.

Looks like Americans are even more happy with murdering people if its done by a puppet.

just normal bleech demon things

all joking/despair aside, this poll is stupid. even if accurate i would argue it shows how effective propaganda is rather than how mindrendingly and pointlessly violent the average american prole is.

Does it really matter if theyve been "mislead" into being mindrendingly pointlessly violent?

Especially when that violence keeps getting pointed at the same religious minority?
