"What's the point?" Most Americans wonder, according to poll

CAIRO , May 28 (IslamOnline.net) – A new Washington Post-ABC News poll showed that the majority of Americans are increasingly worried, even angry, about the U.S. role in Iraq , according to the Washington Post Friday, May 28.

Commenting on President Bush's aggressive campaign to assure Americans that the turnover of power to a new Iraqi government at the end of June will go smoothly, the Post quoted Bob Soltan, a carpenter, as saying: "Yeah, everything is going to be nice as long as America stays there for 100 years. How long can this go on?"

"I'm getting worried now about this war," Betty Johnson, another citizen, told the paper. "Before, I felt it was something we had to do. But it's going so bad. So I wonder now, kind of, what's the point?"

According to the poll, two-thirds of Americans - 67 percent - describe themselves as "worried" about the situation in Iraq .

Fifty-seven percent of Americans say they are "angry," nearly double the figure in March 2003, according to the Washington Post.
