Thanks for posting it -- although it says it is the first poll in Iraq, which makes me wonder about all the polls you said you had been reading all these months -- the ones that don't exist. I suppose it is time-efficient to read polls that don't exist, in fact it must take no time at all.

Canada Sees Iraq at Risk of Poverty, Despair
14 minutes ago

By Jonathan Wright

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Canadian Foreign Minister Bill Graham said on Wednesday conditions in Iraq (news - web sites) were deteriorating under U.S. occupation and without reconstruction the country risked sliding into despair.



"If Iraq is allowed to deteriorate as it is at the present and slide into poverty and desperation and violence, it will become an incredible source of terror," he told reporters after talks with Secretary of State Colin Powell (news - web sites), who is seeking international support for the U.S. presence in Iraq.
