"U.S. Troops in Iraq: 72% Say End War in 2006"
Zogby has a new poll out that "Mystery Pollster" has checked on and does not disagree with the methodology. There is a big split in answers between the NG and Reserve soldiers vs the RA and Marines. Heres a summary. I suggest you take a look at Zogby's site.

* 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.
