Here you go....a poll done by our own government last Fall:

Most Iraqis Favor Immediate U.S. Pullout, Polls Show

BAGHDAD, Sept. 26 -- A strong majority of Iraqis want U.S.-led military forces to immediately withdraw from the country, saying their swift departure would make Iraq more secure and decrease sectarian violence, according to new polls by the State Department







You guys always say that those who are/were in Iraq know more than those who have not been there. So here is a poll of Iraqis who live in Iraq. Do you trust their opinions?

The US poll says two-thirds of Iraqis favor immediate pullout. Most of the other polls say 80+%, some even as high as 90%. I gave you the least severe of them.


For example:

Inter Press Service: Poll Shows Iraqis Weary of Violence, US Presence

...nearly four in five respondents said they believed that the U.S. military in Iraq is "provoking more conflict than it is preventing," while nearly 61 percent said they approved of attacks on U.S.-led forces...

Here's an interesting poll:

Iraqis Say They Were Better Off Under Hussein

Many adults in Iraq believe the coalition effort has been negative, according to a poll by the Iraq Centre for Research and Strategic Studies and the Gulf Research Center. 90 per cent of respondents think the situation in their country was better before the U.S.-led invasion.

No joke the polls would say that, if every other day your town was blown up you would say that too. However, it isn't the soldiers blowing up your town. Usually these polls are conducted when violence is at a peak. I saw a great interview with a General:

"if you polled Americans on how patriotic they were on April 1st and then conducted the same poll on July 4th, your results would be drastically different"

I really want to know what soldiers say...
