According to Gallup: Do you approve or disapprove of the way the U.S. has handled the situation with Iraq since the major fighting ended in April? 2003 Dec 15-16 Approve 65% Disapprove 34% No opinion 1% All in all, do you think the situation in Iraq was worth going to war over, or not? 2003 Dec 15-16 Worth going to war 61% Not worth going to war 35% No opinion 4% gallup.com If "moderate Americans" disapproved, wouldn't it show up in a Gallup poll? You sound like the BBC, which was all prepared to talk about a proposed new law on organ donation as the most publically supported new legislation, when they found to their horror that their poll actually revealed that the most supported new legislation was the "Tony Martin" law. Tony Martin was a farmer who shot a young burglar who broke into his house and was charged with murder; the law proposes protecting the householder in such cases, as is done in most states here. The Beeb was just horrified, and tried to ignore the results of its own poll: The People Have Spoken, The Bastards! ukcommentators.blogspot.com
