Tejek, I didn't miss that part. My interpretation is that they want Americans to fix it, but to do so quickly, as in the next few months. That's how it reads to me.

Btw, it was an excellent article. Showed many thoughts of people's opinions. I like polls a lot. It's raw data. Not spin.


Maybe........but I think the question was presented in that way. Do you want the Americans to leave in a few months; a few years or until the job is done. They picked a few months........I think everybody knows we just can't leave in a week's time.

The only question I have is: who did they poll - were they able to reach a wide range of people, or only the ones friendly to Americans?

I have thought the same thing.......I've wondered how accurate these polls are.......in a country that is going through a major change and upheaval......I guess I question the veracity of the polls. That's not to say they're out and out bad........I'm just not sure.

I wonder if the foreign news station Al Z (forgot how to spell it) if they conducted the same poll, would the results be different or similar, based upon who they are able reach? I'm wondering if the different news stations tend to reach different groups.

Your guess is as good as mine but I suspect the poll would come out worse. I think al Jazeera leads them on and encourages dissent among the Iraqis specifically and Muslims in general.
