interesting ABC item... Views Vary As Americans Digest Iraq War
Views Vary As Americans Digest Iraq War
Views Vary As Americans Digest Iraq-Related Developments Near and Far

The Associated Press

July 26 —
The changing news from Iraq comes daily: Saddam Hussein's two sons killed. More U.S. soldiers dying. Part of President Bush's State of the Union address questioned.

So much has happened recently, Americans across the country say they aren't sure what to think. Did President Bush lie when he said Saddam was uranium-shopping in Africa? Why are soldiers still dying when major combat was declared over in May? And where are the weapons of mass destruction?

"There's a lot going on," said Iva Bray, a 66-year-old change attendant for video poker machines at a Las Vegas Sav-On Drugs. "Our guys are going down like flies. Where's Hussein, though?"

Opinions gathered this week by The Associated Press are as varied as the news from Iraq. Americans are speaking up writing congressional leaders, calling for an investigation into questionable intelligence, but mostly, just trying to sort out all the developments.

As for the deaths of Saddam's sons on Tuesday, attorney Jeff Silver, 57, said he was only sorry they weren't tortured first.
