Correction: 0. 2% of of Iraqis believe that Ahmed Chalabi to be honest.
Edited on Tue Mar-21-06 12:06 AM by IsItJustMe
I posted yesterday that Only 2% of a recent poll of Iraqis believe that Ahmed Chalabi is honest.

This was incorrect; rather, Only 0.2% of a recent poll of Iraqis believe that Ahmed Chalabi is honest.

Ahmed Chalabi (leader of the Iraqi National Congress) is a man who the US based much of it's pre-war intelligence on before we went into Iraq.

Some folks just can't seem to be able to smell a skunk but apparently the Iraqis smell them a mile away.


...Ahmed Chalabi, the Governing Council member seen as closest to the US, was seen as "most trusted" by 0.2 percent of respondents...

1. Iraqi's Are Probably More Intelligent Than Average American
I'd wager we're pretty stupid overall in the world.

3. Probably the inherent statistical error in polls. (ie +-3)
