Two-thirds of Americans believe the war in Iran has not been worth fighting.
A new AP-NORC poll found that roughly two-thirds of U.S. adults say the war that began Feb. 28 is not worthwhile. The sentiment is shared by the vast majority of Democrats (87%) and independents (68%), as well as 37% of Republicans.
The AP-NORC poll, conducted July 23-27, surveyed 1,165 adults and has a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 3.7 percentage points.

To be fair, age has everything to do with it when someone is responding to incessant rants about "we've been at war with them for 47 years."
That doesn't mean a damn thing to anyone younger than the age of 50.
Which explains why there is clearly a very wide chasm between the President (80 years old) and Vice President (who wasn't even alive in 1979 when this "war" allegedly started) of the United States on this stupid Iran debacle.
LOL.
IIRC, only 10% stood in support of the American revolution.
Peace is better than war, but war is better than slavery. The majority of people are sheep who would rather live on their knees as slaves to Islamic fascists then stand and fight for liberty and freedom. They rely on the bravery and courage of a small minority to secure their rights at great cost, and are too stupid to show gratitude for their sacrifice.
Rasmussen which is not friend of America, just 70% see a nuclear threat from Iran.
thankfully
1 the poll is likely BS
2 we are not governed by polls
that said, Trump needs to finish finish this. the contant back and worth isn’t and won’t work.
Don't you think the CIA and Mossad and MI6 read "enemy propaganda" all the time?
What do you want FR to be? An informative place? Or a safe space?
Decades of observation tells us that many high profile public polls are like climate models: created by the agenda driven and configured to “reflect” desired results.
no, there was one other one that did something.
Ohblahblah.
he got an agreement worth less than the paper it was writen on and sent them stacks of cash for a promise that they wouldn’t build a nuke.
you never said they had to something good about it
As opposed to ... ?
“””After the success of last year’s Operation Midnight Fury, the Administration has shown zero evidence of an imminent threat. Nada. Zilch. Zero.”””
Let’s wait until the nuke hits us to do anything. CFCS
Not worth it, until of course Iran parks a nuclear warhead in New York and charges tolls on Hormuz.
Absolutely. Not worth it. 47 years of cowardice, and the cowards are weighing in.
You think the massacre of 35,000 protestors had anything to do with Trump’s decision?
A sane place.
Including 2016-2020 when Trump was President...
...Reagan two terms...
Lol…I think Moses also warned us.
if he tried...
would anyone carry it?
would anyone fairly report on it?
The Dems might be able to impeach Trump, but enough votes to convict / remove are VERY unlikely. Then, even if successful, Vance becomes Prez - a mixed bag, but nowhere near the disaster the mullahs getting nukes would be.
Just what do you think the consequences of Iran getting nukes would be?
Don’t get me wrong, IMO we have made a number of errors, some of which largely predate Trump, and Trump erred in trying to negotiate with Iran after only a few weeks of major ops: “Reasonable” Iranians are NOT in charge, by a long shot, and Iran’s long established “mosaic” strategy pretty much precludes success of any “deal” anyway.
Now, how many posters on FR have mentioned that “mosaic” strategy before now? That pretty much illustrates the ignorance all about. (I myself was only “partially” versed in that strategy, until recently, so I will accept the criticism I was partially ignorant about it too. No one can know even 1% of everything. OTOH, “mosaic” is probably not a fully correct term. “Hydra” might be better.)
BTW, I have yet to hear any of the illustrious know nothings condemning the toppling of Mohammad Mosaddegh and his National Front play out the likely consequences of failure to give him and his the boot. My analysis (summary) is that we very likely would not have won the “Cold War” or maybe even not have it stay “cold”. Iran was MUCH more strategically important than Vietnam, and in Vietnam, at least we did, in the bigger picture, contain communism to very limited gains and even sap it greatly.
