WASHINGTON - Despite disillusionment with the war in Iraq, a majority of Americans support taking military action against Iran if that country continues to produce material that can be used to develop nuclear weapons, a Los Angeles Times/Bloomberg poll has found.
The poll, conducted Sunday through Wednesday, found that 57 percent of Americans favor military intervention if Iran's Islamic government pursues a program that could enable it to build nuclear arms.
Support for military action against Tehran has increased over the past year, the poll found, even though public sentiment against the war in neighboring Iraq remains strong: 53 percent said they believe the situation there was not worth going to war.
A Daily Briefing of Major News Stories on Iran:
We don't know much, but we know what we know if you know what I mean. We are conscious of oil, thanks to the price at the gas pumps. Iran and oil is bound to enter our consciousness about as quickly as money leaves our wallets.
I know 444 days and I'm still pissed.
That was outrageous, and an act of war, which apparently is still on.
"Maybe they just want to accelerate the second coming."
I believe AhmadiNejad has already said that. He's hoping to accomplish it in the next 2yrs.
Anyone saying there's no hurry because they won't have nuclear weapons for 10yrs, isn't paying attention.
