#1 The majority may agree with using terror tactics but we aren't running away. Enjoy the occupation.

#3 Given Arab and Muslim problems with the truth, causality, and reason, I am highly suspicious of any poll conducted by, commissioned by, or subcontracted out to (such as the Pew polls) Arabs or Muslims.

#4 "The study was conducted by an Iraqi university research team, The Sunday Telegraph reported, without identifying the university. The paper didn't say how many people were questioned or give a margin of error."

"But we did get the results we were seeking, this time. We're quite elated by the results, as you can see. As my granny used to tell me, 'Try, try, again!' Righty-o!"

"Wha? Did we try to reconcile our black-hole poll with real-world observations such as those in the Michael Yon article? No, of course not, why would we do that? We're not reporters, we're journalists, silly. Don't forget to parrot our results! Tata!"

#5 Without some idea of who was surveyed and what the questions were, this is just noise. Numbers without some context are simply propaganda.

#6 Natural if you only survey in Ramadi.

#7 Probably done with the same care in sampling and margin of error as the Lancet report.

#8 Well, even they admit over half Iraqis DON'T believe attacks against American and British troops are justified.

#9 I am shocked! Shocked! Shocked anyone would believe this horse crap.

#10 I was going to post this article last night with all the usual journalistic caveats, but I couldn't bring myself to do it. There were so many gaping holes in its methodology (a thousand thanks, Rantburg) whereby I felt obliged to refrain.

My own surmise was merely that about half of Iraq's population needs to die.

#11 Deny! Deny! Deny! On September 17, 2001, I predicted that the dypso, oil-patch, religious crackpot would blow the counter-terror war. What have we got? Islamofascists - including the Koranimal who dynamited the giant Buddhas - now control the Afghan Parliament. Will jihad training begin in earnest, shortly after countless billions of US dollars have been poured into that demographic cesspool? As for Iraq, al-Sadr runs a 10,000 member army under the nose of the so-called "occupiers." The death site of an American soldier is a party site for Iraqi pigs. And now this disgusting poll.

What exactly are you near sighted know-nothings cheerleading for?
