International reporters are not restricted in Iran as in Pakistan. Those numbers clearly demonstrate that Iranians are not as 'American unfavorable' as in Pakistan.

Meanwhile, bluesdave, where are your facts that say Iranians nearly 100% hate Americans? Disparage the only facts we have; and that is proof that all Iranians viciously hate Americans? Where are reports after studies? Reports and studies repeatedly say otherwise. Repeatedly from different sources say same thing. One can disparage all polls. But all polls by professionals means far more than speculation being used to deny them.

Also demonstrated by those polls - and that is in agreement with international news reports - is the massive increase in 'Americans unfavorable' numbers over the past ten years. But then if polls are so routinely wrong, then clearly the world is not overwhelmingly 'American unfavorable'. Which is it? Polls always lie - or polls properly reflect what had happened to world opinion of America?

Clearly America has never been more popular because all polls say otherwise? Or instead we look at numbers from Iran where the rhetoric and public opinion are not monolithic. bluesdave would have us believe that all Iranian is viciously anti-American. That is only found in George Jr myths so often promoted by Limbaugh and his peers - using reasoning that assume a monolithic Iran.
Damm you all are some cherry picking mofo's. Pick out the little bits of info from some obscure source and you think you have a lock on your position, everyone else is wrong and you are right.
