8. I think it's pretty unlikely to ever yield a result of 97%, even 94%
These are odd figures. What's the last real poll you heard of that had 90+% of anyone in agreement? 97, in fact, must be within the margin of error, making it possible the total is 100%. That sounds more like one of Saddam's pretend elections in which he was elected president by 100% of Iraqis.

97% say there is no justification for attacks on infrastructure? I don't think you could even get that in the US.

Even without knowing the source (who is clearly biased), this poll reads like propoganda. It's amazing to me that anyone in this country buys into this stuff.
