Poll: Arab World Sees U.S. In Poor Light
Well of course, we aren't a Muslim country...yet. I will take America over ANY Arab country. I enjoy freedom which some in the Arab world will, sadly, never experience.
WASHINGTON (Reuters)
Eight out of 10 Arabs have an unfavorable view of the United States and only six percent believe the U.S. troop build-up in Iraq in the last year has worked, said a poll of six Arab countries released on Monday."There is a growing mistrust and lack of confidence in the United States," said Shibley Telhami, a University of Maryland professor in charge of the annual poll.
The survey canvassed the opinions of about 4,000 people over the past month in Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Morocco, Jordan, Lebanon and the United Arab Emirates. It has a margin of error of about 1.6 percent.
Of those polled, 83 percent had an unfavorable view of the United States and 70 percent had no confidence in the superpower.
Sounds like Democrat talking points.
