Opposition to Iran obtaining nuclear weapons
is widespread around the world, including in Egypt, Jordan and Turkey,
and support for tough economic sanctions is high, according to a Pew
Global Attitudes poll released Friday.
In the survey of 21 nations, support for military intervention to
prevent Iran from going nuclear was highest in the U.S. at 63% and
lowest in Russia at 24%, while at least 50% in Britain, France, Germany,
Spain, Italy, Poland and the Czech Republic favored military action.

in Jordan, Egypt, Turkey and Lebanon, though nearly half of Pakistanis
viewed him favorably. (AP-Washington Post)
