US War in Pakistan Would Be Supported6/1/09 Tags: War From CNN Opinion Research Corporation Poll (conducted: 5/14-17/09)
» Commentary by Kris Lazaro (registered Democrat) From CNN While Americans are divided on Afghanistan, they seem to be on the same page when it comes to neighboring Pakistan, where government forces are battling Taliban insurgents. Nearly three in four people polled feel that it would be a major problem for the United States if the Taliban deposed the current government of Pakistan and took power in that country, with one in four saying it would only be a minor problem. "Most Americans think things are going well in Iraq, but they appear to have given up on that war. They are more interested in the threats coming from Afghanistan and Pakistan," says CNN Senior Political Analyst Bill Schneider. �Independents are most likely to oppose the war in Iraq while believing that things are going well in that country,� says CNN Polling Director Keating Holland. �Only a third of independents support the war but 56 percent of them have a positive view of how things are going for the U.S. in that country.� When it comes to the war in Afghanistan, the poll suggests that only 36 percent of Americans feel things are going well for the U.S., with six in ten saying things are going poorly. But Americans are split over the war, with 50 percent in favor and 48 percent opposed.
