A borderline poll result to a question which confusingly asks about "air strikes" as if they were not renewed involvement by themselves, which, of course, they are. The overwhelming fact is that most of the American people do not want this country to get into another Iraq War.

If you really think a new Iraq War is popular among Americans, run for office on that platform and see how far you get.
