In April, almost six in 10 thought the war in Iraq had reduced the risk of terrorism in this country, twice the number who thought it had made the risk higher. But in a new ABC News poll, 48 percent said the war increased the risk, while 40 percent said it reduced the risk.
A survey by the Program on International Policy Attitudes at the University of Maryland also found that, by a 2-to-1 margin, more Americans say the U.S. military presence in the Mideast increases the likelihood of terrorist attacks. Three-fourths of those polled said current foreign policy creates a climate that makes it easier for terrorist to recruit new members and raise money.
