According to an AP poll, 70% of Americans oppose sending more troops to Iraq. The implication being that the President should listen to the American public. Two thoughts on that:

David Frum summarizes the results of a study on Islamic terrorism.
1) Europeans across the political spectrum share a belief that their comfortable lives have been jeopardized by an American-imposed "war on terror" that has radicalized their Muslim populations. Khosrokhavar's research suggests exactly the opposite conclusion: It is the failure of European societies to assimilate their Muslim migrants that creates a security threat for America.
2) The French media play an astoundingly important - and incredibly irresponsible - part in stoking the anti-American and anti-Israel prejudices of French Muslims.
Now extend those conclusions to the U.S. drive-by media.
