Powerline blog reports on a poll taken in and around Baghdad:
Do you support the severe measures the Iraqi Government is taking against terrorist acts in Iraq? 93.56% = Yes 6.44% = No How do you think Arabic satellite news companies are covering Iraqi news? Neutral = 16.75% Not Neutral = 7.25% Negatively Biased = 76% What is your opinion of U.N. Resolution 1546? It achieves the ambitions of Iraqis for sovereignty = 73.12% It satisfies ambition of certain Iraqi groups = 12.90% It helps legitimise the American occupation = 13.98%
Powerline's take on these numbers:
This is why I keep saying: the "insurgency" is over. The terrorists lost. What is going on now is just crime. Criminals can kill, but they can't affect history.
In other words, if the terrorists are "insurgents", then so are the gangs in our inner cities.
