Support for Iraq War Timetable Hits 64% in U.S.
April 28, 2007
(Angus Reid Global Monitor) - Many adults in the United States believe their federal government should establish a date for the end of the coalition effort, according to a poll by CBS News and the New York Times. 64 per cent of respondents think the U.S. should set a timetable for the withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq sometime in 2008, up seven points since mid-April.
The coalition effort against Saddam Hussein’s regime was launched in March 2003. At least 3,334 American soldiers have died during the military operation, and more than 24,900 troops have been wounded in action.
In December 2005, Iraqi voters renewed their National Assembly. In May 2006, Shiite United Iraqi Alliance member Nouri al-Maliki officially took over as prime minister.
