In July, a poll by the nonprofit International Republican Institute found 94 percent of Iraqis said they support a “unity” government. Seventy-eight percent opposed Iraq being segregated by religion or ethnicity. Even in Baghdad, where sectarian violence is heightened, 76 percent opposed ethnic separation. According to a September WorldPublicOpinion.org poll, 97 percent of Iraqis said they “strongly disapprove” of attacks against Iraqi civilians, and 96 percent of Iraqis disapproved of attacks on Iraqi Security Forces. And in a State Department poll released Oct. 5, large majorities of Iraqi youth in six regions surveyed agreed “It is essential that Iraq remains one nation.” These findings confirm that Iraqis want to live in a unified, multi-ethnic country.
Too bad our government can't fire people for supporting the enemy. 98% of the State Dept. and 3/4 of the U.S. Government as a whole would be hitting the bricks. If I'm going to dream, I might as well dream big.
Add me to the giving up on Iraq crowd its down to either a strongman or 3 countries and the Kurds deserve better than a strongman.
