The poll also shows that 42 percent of the troops surveyed are unsure of their mission in Iraq, and that 85 percent believe a major reason they were sent into war was “to retaliate for Saddam’s role in the Sept. 11 attacks.”

Amazing. The president goes on national television and admits that there are no conections between Sept. 11th and Saddam, and yet the troops are still hearing that from somewhere if 85% of them still believe it was a major reason.
