Is this because the Iranian survey would only talk to Shia Clergy, sympathetic with Iran?

Maybe I'm reading too much into your statement BeeVee, all American's taking a survey in Iraq can't be trusted?

I wonder if the Iranian government would accept an independent survey company like Zogby to do a survey? I don't trust that they would.

The only way to really know though, is to travel to Iraq and tool around with a pad and pencil. Talk to some Iraqi's. Include Shia, Sunni, Wahabi, Arabs, non Arabs, Christian, Turkoman, Kurds. Travel to each province and see the population grouping. Get a real good feel for what the Iraqi's as a whole are looking for.
