| #3 I read it all, and here's my take on the average Iraqi: 1. Other middle-eastern countries gave Saddam too much support. 2. Glad Saddam is gone. 3. Freedom of speech and religion is much-improved, but still wary of speaking out. 4. Hardships for sure, but had many before too. 5. Neither Bush nor Bremer are heroes, but Saddam is definitely a villain. 6. Rebuilding efforts have had minimal psychological impact. 7. U.S. troops are heavy-handed. That is based on media accounts, not first-hand accounts. 8. Want the occupiers to go home ASAP, whenever that is. I wish it was more positive, but at least they're very glad we took out Saddam, and they admit that they couldn't have done it themselves. |

| #2 I don't know how long it takes to tally up a survey, but this was done BEFORE April 9th. I think it's really funny that when they get answers, (depite their double negative wording) that seem to show that Iraqi's support US action that they write a big ****CAUTION THIS SURVEY WAS DONE BEFORE APRIL 9TH EXTREMEME CAUTION MUST BE USED WHEN READING THE RESULTS*** what a hilarious joke!! And these guys consider themselves statisticians..oh wait...i'ts CNN, USA and Gallup ...and we all know how unbiased they are...we all trust them....scoff. Why didn't they put their results out in a timely manner? Could it be they held their results until events could obfuscate the positive results? Oh well..information is power, and I see lots of good information in here, despite the spin. |
