THE POLLS GET WORSE..

The Iraq polls, I mean. I have previously written about how many Iraqis -45% - feel it is OK to attack U.S. troops and now a new poll by PIPA shows that more of them feel that way:

A new WPO poll of the Iraqi public finds that seven in ten Iraqis want US-led forces to commit to withdraw within a year. An overwhelming majority believes that the US military presence in Iraq is provoking more conflict than it is preventing and there is growing confidence in the Iraqi army. If the US made a commitment to withdraw, a majority believes that this would strengthen the Iraqi government. Support for attacks on US-led forces has grown to a majority position—now six in ten.
