![]() Daniella -
Your thread gave me the tought that it would be VERY interesting to see some poll results that would come directly from Arab-Muslim pollsters, asking similar questions, or even just to see WHAT questions they would ask...! I don't even know if the Arab countries TAKE polls though, you? |

![]() I wasn't thinking you had made the poll, and am sure the stats are reliable... I often wonder though if we could see polls generated throughout the middle east, it would be instructive, is all.
