Afghans support US presence

A poll conducted by the Program on International Policy Attitudes (PIPA) at the University of Maryland polled a sample of 2,089 Afghan adults from between November 27 and December 4 from Pashtuns, Tajiks, Uzbek and Hazara communities.

• Eighty-three percent said they had a favorable view of US military forces
• Eighty-eight percent said they had an unfavorable view of the Taliban
• 82 percent said having women in parliment is good

Questions text are here in English of course.

It seems that just by having US presence in Afghanistan has propelled the nation into the 21st century, who would have thought that in four years of US occupation, Afghans would discover women's right and fall in love with an occupying power. This poll would have made Goebbel proud.

OK maybe I am cynical bastard, but how about polling the villagers who had family members killed in a remote controlled Predator strike.
Talk about the buffonery of being out of range.
