In other words... the majority feel that it was right to secure the oil... LOL.

Hard to say whether they are representative. Iraq is so non-homogenuous, I would think it would be nigh on impossible obtain a decent sample. Interesting reading though, but probably not worth too much consideration.

I think the results are much better than expected, and they breath of optimism.

They think that their future is looking bright, while the majority are indifferent, there are more iraqis who like the americans than dislike them.

Half of them think the war was right...and combining that with the fact that only 1% of them has NOT been affected by some new problem since the war, I'd say that is a pretty decent number. There are more of them who wants democracy than who wants some Iran-style government. etc etc

hehe know your jokeing but you do realize they worded it like this on purpose ....."Do you think that America's and Britian's War against Saddamn's regime was right or wrong?"   They didn't ask it the way you assume for your joke quite on purpose :D Damned lies, little white lies and ... polls :p
