Most Americans Support Iraq Action, Poll Finds By MARJORIE CONNELLY The New York Times Most Americans approve of the military action the United States initiated against Iraq (news - web sites), but they think the outbreak of the conflict has increased the threat of terrorism against Americans, according to the latest New York Times/CBS News poll. Americans greeted the start of the war with more concern than relief and were divided on whether the opening salvos against Iraq matched their expectations. A majority 62 percent of the adults surveyed on Thursday night think the United States was right in starting military action, while 35 percent said the United Nations (news - web sites) and the weapons inspectors should have been given more time. In 1991, the outbreak of war against Iraq received a higher level of support from Americans. In the Times/CBS News poll taken the day after the bombing began in January 1991, 79 percent said the United States was correct in starting military action and only 16 percent felt it would have been better to wait to see if the trade embargo worked. In the latest Times/CBS News poll, 59 percent said the onset of hostilities has increased the threat of terrorism against the United States and only 8 percent thought the risk has decreased. But, according to a CNN/USA Today/Gallup poll, also conducted last night, 65 percent of Americans do not "personally feel any sense of danger from terrorist acts." Regardless of the lack of fear for their personal safety, most Americans reacted to the war with worry rather than relief. Just over half, 54 percent, said they felt more worried when they heard the news, while 34 percent were relieved. The CNN/USA Today/Gallup poll asked the public whether they experienced a series of emotions on hearing the news that the United States was going to war. In response, 83 percent said they felt confident; 65 percent felt proud; 63 percent reacted with sadness; 56 percent were worried; and 34 percent were afraid. Americans were divided on whether the beginning of hostilities against Iraq matched their expectations of the start of the war. In the Times/CBS News poll, 49 percent said it started much as they expected and 44 percent thought it would have begun differently. The nationwide telephone poll was conducted with 463 adults who had been interviewed earlier for a poll conducted March 7 to 9. The new poll has a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 5 percentage points.
