1. NewsMax Poll: Strong U.S. Support for Bombing Iran

An Internet poll sponsored by NewsMax.com reveals that Americans are overwhelmingly in favor of the United States undertaking military action to stop Iran's nuclear weapons program.

Nearly 60,000 people have taken part in the poll so far, and more than nine out of 10 say U.S. efforts to contain Iran's weapons program are not working.

A large majority of respondents also believe that Iran poses a greater threat than Saddam Hussein did before the Iraq War.

NewsMax will provide the results of this poll to major media and share them with radio talk-show hosts across the country.

Here are the poll questions and results:

1) Do you believe U.S. efforts to contain Iran's nuclear weapons program are working?
Working: 7 percent
Not Working: 93 percent

2) Should the United States rely solely on the U.N. to stop Iran's nuclear weapons program?
Yes: 11 percent
No: 89 percent

3) Do you believe Iran poses a greater threat than Saddam Hussein did before the Iraq War?
Yes: 88 percent
No: 12 percent

4) Should the U.S. undertake military action against Iran to stop their program?
Yes: 77 percent
No: 23 percent

5) Who should undertake military action against Iran first?
U.S.: 45 percent
Israel: 35 percent
Neither: 20 percent

considering our military is currently short on their recruiting goals for the wars we're already fighting... Where are these extra bodies going to come from for this new one? :???:

Thanks OT, for posting that.

Now we'll have to find out the REAL :wink: story from Dis.
I'm sure she will have a different spin on it.

Pretty simple explanation. It's a NewsMax poll. Who reads that site and votes in their polls? When Pew, Rassmussen, NEWSWEEK, TIME, etc., start listing these sorts of figures it may mean something. And even on NewsMax's poll less than half thought the US should strike the first blow:

5) Who should undertake military action against Iran first?
U.S.: 45 percent
Israel: 35 percent
Neither: 20 percent

Our failure to contain Iran's nuclear program should be partly laid at Bush's feet. Who can blame Iran for wanting to defend themselves when their neighbor has been destroyed by the strongest military in the world? And that country is now threatening them?

1) Do you believe U.S. efforts to contain Iran's nuclear weapons program are working?
Working: 7 percent
Not Working: 93 percent

Of course, those are much better figures than Bush's approval ratings. ROTFLMAO!!!!

Those peacekeeper III's out of Montana don't take that many people to launch them. :wink:

But Iran's nuclear sites are mostly underground. They can't be destroyed by bombs. It will take a boots on the ground invasion to destroy their sites. Are you sending your kids?

Our government could at the very least use this letter to open some sort of communications with Iran. They reached out to us. But not George W. Bush! "You're fur us or again us." "My way or the highway." :(
