Summary:

This special topic poll, conducted March 23, 2003, was undertaken to assess public opinion on the war against Iraq. Respondents were asked whether they approved of the way President George W. Bush was handling the presidency, as well as the situation with Iraq and Iraqi President Saddam Hussein. Those polled were asked whether they supported or opposed the war, whether the war was going better or worse than expected, whether Iraqi resistance had been tougher or weaker than expected, and whether the battle for control of Baghdad would be difficult or easy. Views were sought on whether the United States and its allies had done the right thing, how long the war would last, whether there would be significant United States casualties, and whether everything was being done to avoid United States military and civilian casualties. A series of questions addressed anti-war demonstrations. Topics covered whether respondents had attended either anti-war or pro-war demonstrations, whether people had a right to demonstrate peacefully against the war, and whether anti-war demonstrations in other countries had affected respondents' support for the war. A final question probed whether respondents felt worried, proud, frightened, angry, or hopeful about the war. Background information on respondents includes age, gender, political party, and Hispanic origin.... Cf.: http://dx.doi.org/10.3886/ICPSR03779
