Losers of wars are never happy.
"Polls finds many view Afghan, Iraq wars as failures" Associated Press August 02, 2014
WASHINGTON — Three in four Americans think history will judge the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq as failures, according to an Associated Press-GfK poll that shows that about the same percentage think it was right to pull forces from the two countries.
We are not only war-weary, we HATE THEM!
Americans surveyed in last month’s poll were not optimistic about the chance that a stable democratic government will be established in either country. Seventy-eight percent said it was either not too likely or not at all likely in Afghanistan and 80 percent said the same about Iraq.
Roughly three out of four Americans polled think that in hindsight, each war will be deemed as an outright ‘‘complete failure’’ or ‘‘more of a failure than success.’’
It's only a $ucce$$ for certain $elect intere$ts. That is why the people, no matter where they be found, hate it.
Seventy percent, said the United States was right to withdraw troops from Iraq in 2011 and pull most US forces out of Afghanistan by December. The two conflicts have claimed the lives of 6,800 US troops.
Well, they have been sent back into Iraq and Afghanistan, but why blow a perfectly good feel-good narrative?
In each, the United States has spent more than a decade trying to set up democratic governments that could effectively police their own territories and stamp out threats to the American homeland.
And in both countries that objective is in peril — their futures threatened by a combination of poor leadership, weak institutions, interethnic rivalry, insurgencies, and extremist rebellions.
Meaning those piss poor numbers are not going to be going up and we are just going to have to stick with the wars, Americans.
--more--"
At least the poll shows the American people do, in fact, oppose this militaristic, war-criminal government inflicting such suffering on the planet. The world need to know that.
