1 ABC NEWS POLL: NORTH KOREA/IRAQ 1/5/03 EMBARGOED FOR RELEASE AFTER 6:30 P.M. Monday, Jan. 6, 2003 Public Backs Same Goals, Different Means In Dealing With Iraq and North Korea Eight in 10 Americans say the United States should try to block North Korea from developing nuclear weapons but unlike views on Iraq, diplomatic and economic approaches win far more support than a military confrontation. Concerns about both countries are high. But Americans by a 20-point margin, percent, see Iraq as a bigger threat to the United States. In dealing with Pyongyang, 70 percent in this ABC News poll support a diplomatic effort offering U.S. economic aid in exchange for cessation of North Korea s nuclear weapons program. And two-thirds say they d support an effort to punish North Korea with an international economic embargo unless it gives up its nuclear program. But support for military action is much lower. Forty percent favor air strikes against North Korea's nuclear facilities, while 52 percent are opposed; and 31 say they d support a U.S.-led ground war to destroy its nuclear capability, while 62 percent are opposed. IRAQ These stand in sharp contrast to views on Iraq, where a near-unanimous 95 percent say the United States should try to block nuclear weapons development, and the military options command far broader support. Sixty-eight percent say they d favor air strikes against Iraqi nuclear weapons facilities, and 63 percent say they d support a U.S.- led ground war to destroy Iraq s ability to make nuclear weapons. Support for aid-backed diplomacy, meanwhile, is 14 points lower for Iraq than it is for North Korea. 100% 90% Support for Action vs Nuclear Weapons Capability ABC News Poll 80% 60% 67% Diplomacy/economic aid Economic embargo Air strikes vs nuclear facilities Groud war vs nuclear capability 56% 68% 63% 50% 40% 40% 30% 31% 20% 10% 0% North Korea Iraq
2 In dealing with Support for: North Korea Iraq Diff. Diplomacy/economic aid Economic embargo Air strikes vs nuclear facilities Ground war vs nuclear capability Previous polling has shown that support for military action against Iraq depends on the circumstances posited - such as the level of casualties, the presence or lack of allied support, and in this formulation, the specific goal of removing Iraq s nuclear-weapons capability. Actual support for military action, should it occur, will depend on the actual circumstances. WORRY Concerns about nuclear weapons in the hands of these nations are high, but no higher than they were two months ago and in Iraq s case, actually lower. In an ABC News poll in early November 53 percent were very worried about Iraq s efforts to develop nuclear weapons; it s 43 percent now. Thirty-eight percent are very worried about North Korea s nuclear efforts, about the same as it was. As befits the potential consequences, both these are higher than the 27 percent who are very worried about the direction of the U.S. economy over the next few years. Worried Very worried Iraq s efforts to develop nuclear weapons 79% 43 North Korea s efforts to develop nuclear weapons Direction of U.S. economy in the next few years CHANGED WORLD This poll also shows how the world has changed. Twenty years ago Americans overwhelmingly cited the Soviet Union as the greatest threat to world peace. Back in July 2001, during the EP-3 spy plane flap, it was China. Today Iraq leads the list, cited by 33 percent; and second is North Korea, at 18 percent. Greatest threat to world peace: 1/03 7/01 9/91 9/81 Iraq 33% North Korea China United States Iran Russia/Soviet Union METHODOLOGY This ABC News poll was conducted by telephone Jan. 2-5, 2003, among a random national sample of 1,044 adults. The results have a three-point error margin. Fieldwork by TNS Intersearch of Horsham, PA. Analysis by Gary Langer.
