Now before you people say something allow me to say this! This story comes from the trash corperate media as usual and no I don't believe it. The idiots had a nerve to said the majority of Britons back war on Iraq yet only questioned '758'.What an insult to my intelligence this poll is,I bet they have not interviewed the millions who really are against this war. Okay now read the rest of the story for your amusement because it certainly made me laugh though.
Sorry but 758 is no majority you moronic ICM fools!

Most Britons back military action - poll Mar 9 2003
A significant majority of the British public now believe military action must be used to remove Saddam Hussein from power.
An ICM poll for the News of the World found 68% now back military action, with only 22% opposing the use of force.
Less than a fortnight ago, another ICM poll revealed 52% opposed military action in Iraq.
However, 77% of those who support war against Iraq said there must be a second UN resolution.
Only 15% of the public would support war without one.
An overwhelming majority of those questioned - 84% - said Saddam should be removed from office.
But the poll suggested the public remained critical of the Prime Minister Tony Blair. A small majority - 53% - disapproved of his handling of the Iraqi crisis. Only 29% approved.
ICM interviewed 758 adults for the poll on Friday and Saturday.

So apply this to all future so-called "polls in support of the war."
Take away the UN fig leaf and all you have is a large majority with severe misgivings about an attack on Iraq.

A load of people who are against war.
No polls of 758 people of dubious position regarding the war.
Those media types.
So manipulative.
Fuck them.
I suppose its good stuff like that gets posted here though. Its important for those in the movement to see what the blood hungry rulers are up to in trying to persuade those with less to fight for those with more.
