CNN. 25 September 2002. UK Iraq poll: Low support for U.S.
LONDON -- The majority of Britons disapprove of the way George W. Bush
is handling the Iraq crisis, according to a poll.
They think the U.S. president is determined to attack Iraq even without
U.N. approval, and that their prime minister is too supportive of Bush's
foreign policy, the poll showed.
The survey, conducted by MORI for Britain's ITV News, showed a sharp
drop in confidence the British have in the ability of the United States
to "deal responsibly with world problems."
Asked how Bush was handling the Iraq crisis, 59 percent disapproved of
his actions and 30 percent approved.
Asked if Blair was too supportive of Bush's foreign policy, 69 percent
said yes and 24 percent said no.
Seventy-three percent said they thought Bush was determined to take
military action against Iraq regardless of whether the United Nations
approved of it.
In all 62 percent said the [Blair] dossier had either little or no
effect on their thinking about Iraq. A similar number -- 68 percent --
said their views on Iraq had not changed in the past week.
British confidence in America's ability on the world stage has dropped
sharply in the past four years.
In 1998, 71 percent of Britons surveyed said they had either a great
deal or a fair amount of confidence. The current poll put that number at
41 percent.
