The article reports on the support of U.S. citizens to the Iraq war. According to Gallup Poll, majority of White citizens are for the war while African Americans who are for the war account to only 29 percent. The great difference between the figures may be due to the reason that the U.S. Army is composed of more African Americans compared to Whites. Another reason cited is the unemployment rate. Elizabeth Stanley-Mitchell said in her column in "New York Times" that if the U.S. does not make peace with Iraqi groups, the U.S. forces will likely fight them as well.
