The Harris poll shows more US adults are pessimistic about the situation in Iraq since the bombing of the Askariya shrine and the ensuing sectarian violence. Sixty-eight per cent of those interviewed gave a negative rating of the president's current handling of events in Iraq, and only 30 per cent were positive. Asked about the possibility of a civil war in Iraq in the next six months, 30 per cent of those polled said that such a war was very or extremely likely, with another 20 per cent saying it was likely. Sixty-one per cent doubted that US policy in Iraq would be successful. © NewsRoom 2006
