- Une majorité d'américains pensent maintenant que l'envoi de troupes en
Irak a été une erreur - Most Americans now say that sending U.S.
troops to Iraq was a mistake...
Poll:
Sending troops to Iraq a mistake
USA Today 24/06/04
"Most Americans now say that sending U.S. troops to Iraq was
a mistake, a USA TODAY/CNN/Gallup Poll finds. For the first time,
a majority also says that the war there has made the nation less
safe from terrorism..."
"...It is the first time since Vietnam that a majority of
Americans has called a major deployment of U.S. forces a mistake.
When the war in Iraq began last year, the public by three-to-one
said sending troops wasn't a mistake. Just three weeks ago, 58%
still held that view.
Now, 54% say it was a mistake..."
Presidential
Race Tied as Americans Shift on Iraq and Economy
Majority now say war in Iraq was
mistake
Gallup 25/06/04
"...Fifty-four percent of Americans now say that the United States
made a mistake in sending troops to Iraq, marking the first time since the
war in that country began that a majority have held this negative view.
This trend is important because it allows some comparability to the
Vietnam War, during which Gallup consistently asked this same
"mistake" question. In the early stages of that war, in late
August and early September 1965, only 24% said that the United States had
made a mistake in sending troops to that country. That percentage slowly
rose over the next several years, and by August 1968, the tide turned and
53% said that Vietnam had been a mistake.
Gallup has asked this same question about Iraq nine times since March
2003. The previous high "mistake" percentage was 44% in May
2004. The current reading marks a major change from as recently as the
June 3-6 poll, in which 41% said that the war was a mistake, and 58%
said it was not.
Another Gallup measure on the Iraq war, "All in all, do you think it
was worth going to war in Iraq, or not," has been more consistently
negative in recent months. Although as many as 76% of Americans said that
the Iraq war was worth it in April 2003, by May 2004, a majority said that
it was not worth it. In the current poll, 46% say the war was worth it,
while 51% say it was not.
It is highly likely that the increase in terrorism in recent months is a
factor in this change in attitudes toward Iraq. Fifty-five percent of
Americans in the current poll say that the war with Iraq has made the
United States less safe from terrorism, marking a significant shift from
last December (just after the capture of Saddam Hussein), when a majority
said that the war had made the United States safer from terrorism...."
