Only 18% Of Americans Believe Iran Halted Nuclear Weapons Program
Bash Note: My poll has the number at 100% of those polled believe that Iran is continuing to pursue nuclear weapons. I polled me and Louie.
From Rasmussen Reports:
Just 18% of American voters believe that Iran has halted its nuclear weapons program.
The survey was conducted following release of a government report saying that Iran halted its nuclear weapons development program in 2003.
The Rasmussen Reports survey also found that 67% of American voters believe that Iran remains a threat to the national security of the United States. Only 19% disagree while 14% are not sure.
Fifty-nine percent (59%) believe that the United States should continue sanctions against Iran. Twenty percent (20%) disagree and 21% are not sure.
Forty-seven percent (47%) believe it is Very Likely that Iran will develop nuclear weapons in the future and another 34% believe Iran is Somewhat Likely to do so.
Twenty-nine percent (29%) of liberal voters believe that Iran has stopped its weapons program but 54% disagree.
Among conservatives, just 8% believe Iran has stopped and 81% disagree.
Be respectful of others and their opinions. Inflammatory remarks and inane leftist drivel will be deleted. It ain’t about free speech, remember you’re in a private domain. My website, my prerogative.

Who wudda thunk - 18% of American voters work at the State Department?!?

December 7th, 2007 at 1:39 pmThis bogus NIE report is turning into a train wreck; the rapid 180 by the authors and their emerging agenda is getting some light. Bolton tore this toilet paper up and more scrutiny will turn this into another underreported treason like Sandy Burglar. Love how the MSM types jump the gun and try to use it against Bush. Pathetic. It is however dangerous because now Russia and China are already softening up on sanctions. Iranians couldn’t produce a VIC-20 so they gobble up imported mil-tech.
