Israel seems to have a decent range.

And, BHO has stated over an over that the USA will not interfere with Israel's right to protect herself.

 

[Midnight Marauder]

The Iranians are a highly educated nation and not wanting to committ national suicide by attacking Israel.

The Nation, the people aren't in question.

The batshit crazy Mullahs and the President are.

Evidence of that please

Pffft.

Try the recent election for starters.

 

[Si modo]

The people support the nuclear facilities as much as the government does. Unwarranted opposition to their power facilities from the West and Israel has turned the existence of those facilities into a matter of national pride.

I sincerely doubt that the people of Iran support nuclear weapon development, though.

 

[The Rabbi]

Probably not. American foreign policy where Israel is concerned has been exceptionally imprudent. Apart from Obama's hollow condemnations of expansionism in the West Bank, there seems to be little indication of that changing.

Good!

Let's hear it for ethnoreligious discrimination and humanitarian crises.

I'm glad you're for that because the Arab world is exactly in that camp. Nowhere will you find discrimination that would be intolerable in any other part of the world than in the Arab world. Nowhere will you find humanitarian crises fomented by gov'ts more than in the Arab world.

 

[Contumacious]

Good!

Let's hear it for ethnoreligious discrimination and humanitarian crises.

Let's hear it for the destruction of radical Islam in all it's guises.

Radical Islam is a response to radical Judeo-American warmongering and imperialism.

How would we know what the people of Iran support?

Support for nuclear enrichment capacity is at ~90%...

Nuclear weapons are another story. Then again, considering the issuance of Ayatollah Khomeini's "fatwa" against nuclear weapons, I'm not sure that the ruling regime fully supports them either.

[Sunni Man]

Good!

If you feel that strongly about destroying radical Islam.

Why aren't you in the military over in Iraq or Afghanistain?

 

[The Rabbi]

How do you get realistic figures on public opinion in a repressive police state theocracy?

You're right - see above.

Nuclear weapons are another story.

And we are talking, weapons.

Very well. I've never expressed support for "radical Islam"...

 

[Midnight Marauder]

Support for nuclear enrichment capacity is at ~90%...

Ouch..... The government better identify and eradicate the 10%. Dissidents!

And all it's guises, a matter of perspective.

Nuclear weapons are another story.

And we are talking, weapons.

The discussion is about bombing the nuclear facilities regardless of whether they're actually being used to develop weapons. As you can see, approximately 90% of Iranians would oppose that.

Iranian Public Ready to Deal on Nuclear Weapons, But Not Uranium Enrichment - World Public Opinion

Of course the people are in favor of enrichment for nuclear fuel (LEU). The world does not deny Iran that ability at all and your poll indicates as much.

However, Iran's operations are for enrichment of HEU, where there is no rational need for such abilities unless one desires weapons. Iran's facilities are for HEU production at weapons capacity.

90% voted how they believe they were supposed to. The other 10% better hope they're not identified.

How do you get realistic figures on public opinion in a repressive police state theocracy?

I'm not sure. You should look into the methodology of organizations that conduct public opinion research in Israel.

How would that tell me anything? There is dissent in Israel. There are free elections in Israel. There is voting by minorities in Israel.
How many Bahai occupy positions of power in Iran?

Of course expressing support and giving unvoiced tacit support are two different things.

The suggestion that the government has any idea who voted for what - or that it even cares about the results of this survey - is ridiculous. Unless you have evidence that shows what you've said to be true, we can safely assume that it's incorrect and that the survey accurately reflects Iranian public opinion.
