Most think Iraq war not worth it (Australia)
MORE than 70 per cent of Australians now believe the Iraq war was not worth fighting, and nearly half want a firm timetable set for troops to return home.

(snip)
The poll shows an increasing proportion of Coalition supporters (56 per cent) now believe it was not worth going to war in Iraq, compared with a figure of 82per cent for Labor voters.

(snip)
The poll of 1200 Australians taken last weekend shows 71 per cent believe it was not worth going to war - an increase of three percentage points on the previous poll, taken in October.

The proportion of those who still think it was worth going to war has dwindled to 21 per cent, compared with 46 per cent in February 2004.
