Sending American troops into a ground war against the battle-hardened Islamic State with Obama as Commander-in-Chief would be a disaster.

If you Google the Iraq or Afghanistan wars these days, you will almost universally come across the adjective “war-weary” or some variant. It’s a word that has been used to describe the American people for nearly a decade now.

Yet despite that decade of weariness, Americans appear to be ready to go to war again — in fact, they are even more ready than their lawmakers in Washington.

A new CBS News poll shows 57 percent of Americans favor sending ground troops to combat the Islamic State in Syria and Iraq. That includes at least 50 percent of Republicans, Democrats and independents and is up from 47 percent in October.

It’s the latest evidence of a growing chorus calling for more force. A Fox News poll last week showed 60 percent of people thought ground troops would be necessary to defeat the Islamic State, rather than airstrikes alone. The more recent poll shows they not only think it’s necessary but are also urging Congress and the Obama administration to do it.
