    (2006-01-11) Program on International Policy Attitudes (PIPA); Stephens, Angela
    A poll of Palestinians conducted in October 2005--the month after Israel completed its pullout from the Gaza Strip--shows a significant drop in support in Gaza for groups that commit terrorist acts, such as Al-Aqsa Martyr's Brigade and Al-Qassam Brigade, the military wing of Hamas. Gaza residents also indicated a much higher feeling of personal security after the Israeli withdrawal.

    Among Key Iraq Partners, Weak Public Support for Troop Presence: Majority of Public in United Kingdom, Italy, Poland, Australia, Japan Call for Withdrawing Their Troops
    (2005-10-14) Program on International Policy Attitudes (PIPA); Ramsey, Clay; Stephens, Angela
    Among the publics of the coalition partners in Iraq, support for their troops' presence in Iraq is quite weak. A majority of the public in the United Kingdom, Italy, Poland, Australia, and Japan call for withdrawing their troops, though in some cases this does not appear to be a demand for immediate withdrawal. A plurality of Danes call for withdrawal and a majority of South Koreans favor reduction but not withdrawal.

Yet despite Americans’ weariness of the Iraq war, a new poll by Zogby International finds strong support for greater efforts to stop the killing—what many, including the Bush administration, call a genocide—in Darfur.
