    U.S. Troops in Iraq: 72% Say End War in 2006



    Le Moyne College/Zogby Poll shows just one in five troops want to heed Bush call to stay “as long as they are needed”
    While 58% say mission is clear, 42% say U.S. role is hazy
    Plurality believes Iraqi insurgents are mostly homegrown
    Almost 90% think war is retaliation for Saddam’s role in 9/11, most don’t blame Iraqi public for insurgent attacks
    Majority of troops oppose use of harsh prisoner interrogation
    Plurality of troops pleased with their armor and equipment
    An overwhelming majority of 72% of American troops serving in Iraq think the U.S. should exit the country within the next year, and nearly one in four say the troops should leave immediately, a new Le Moyne College/Zogby International survey shows.

    The poll, conducted in conjunction with Le Moyne College’s Center for Peace and Global Studies, showed that 29% of the respondents, serving in various branches of the armed forces, said the U.S. should leave Iraq “immediately,” while another 22% said they should leave in the next six months. Another 21% said troops should be out between six and 12 months, while 23% said they should stay “as long as they are needed.”

    Different branches had quite different sentiments on the question, the poll shows. While 89% of reserves and 82% of those in the National Guard said the U.S. should leave Iraq within a year, 58% of Marines think so. Seven in ten of those in the regular Army thought the U.S. should leave Iraq in the next year. Moreover, about three-quarters of those in National Guard and Reserve units favor withdrawal within six months, just 15% of Marines felt that way. About half of those in the regular Army favored withdrawal from Iraq in the next six months.

    I've never seen anyone put Zogby on the left.
    The survey included 944 military respondents interviewed at several undisclosed locations throughout Iraq. The names of the specific locations and specific personnel who conducted the survey are being withheld for security purposes. Surveys were conducted face-to-face using random sampling techniques. The margin of error for the survey, conducted Jan. 18 through Feb. 14, 2006, is +/- 3.3 percentage points.
    Why do you hate our troops, xray?

    Yeah, I am not in a good mood. So what! I do get tired of people trying to paint
    this country as some kind of abnormal place. They want all the perks but don't
    want to pay all the fees. By that I don't mean taxes. I mean they have to have
    the backbone to support the country. Not their damn agenda. So there!

    Troops are not the ones that make decisions. You don't let a soldier "choose" .. this is no ing boy scout troop. They follow orders. They SWORE to follow orders of the Commander.. ING PERIOD.

    Most of the people joining that ask for infantry WANT TO and EXPECT to get deployed into combat zone. This poll is ing stupid.. saying they should leave next year is not a NO support of war. Thats just a question? "do you think we should leave by next year" yea..

    BIG ING DEAL.. that's not like some revolution...

    Stupid ing poll... another pile of liberal coward bull that wants to just
    have us leave without a successfull mission.

    yall pussies.

    All you ever have to say is for me to go under a bridge.
    I could tell you the sky is blue and you'd say the same thing.

    ^^nope you are wrong. But you never see the blue sky, only the dark clouds over
    the horizon. You live in the world where all people who have anything only got it
    by taking it from someone else. But what is different. You wont agree with this
    statement either. I post, you disagree and say the same old junk. You live your life
    and I sure will live mine.
