What Iraqis Really Think

[elSicomoro]

Interesting, though I'm skeptical, given that:

--It's the AEI (though they are working with Zogby)
--It's just another poll
--They didn't include Iraq's largest city
--UT left this one out: Inchoate anxiety toward the U.S. showed up when we asked Iraqis if they thought the U.S. would help or hurt Iraq over a five-year period. By 50 percent to 36 percent they chose hurt over help.

Perhaps they could do a poll every month or so to see how the attitudes shift. And since we're going to be hanging out with the Iraqis for a while, it makes sense. It could become a "job approval" rating of sorts.

No surprise; The anxiety or the "leaving it out", which makes me sceptical (but not in total disbelief) of the whole presentation.
