WASHINGTON - Six in 10 Americans say they think the United States should withdraw some or all of its troops from Iraq — the highest number who have said that in the Gallup poll.

About three in 10 want the U.S. to withdraw all troops now and about three in 10 said some troops should be withdrawn now. A majority, 56 percent, said they would be upset if more troops are sent to Iraq, according to the poll released Monday.

Two-thirds in an ABC-Washington Post poll, also taken in early June, say they think the United States has gotten bogged down in the war in Iraq. Almost six in 10 in both polls said the war was not worth fighting.

The Gallup poll of 1,003 adults was taken June 6-8 and the ABC-Post poll of 1,002 adults was taken June 2-5. Each poll had a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 3 percentage points.
