“For the first time since
the war in Iraq began, more than half of the American public believes the
fight there has not made the United States safer, according to a new
Washington Post-ABC News poll. […] Nearly three-quarters of Americans say the
number of casualties in Iraq is unacceptable, while two-thirds say the U.S.
military there is bogged down and nearly six in 10 say the war was not worth
fighting - in all three cases matching or exceeding the highest levels of
pessimism yet recorded. […] The surge in violence in Iraq since the new
government took control - 80 U.S. troops and more than 700 Iraqis died in May
alone amid a rash of bombings - has been accompanied by rising gloom about
the overall fight against terrorists. […]” Excerpt of a
Washington Post article
