Iran's Nuclear Threat
77% Believe Country is Likely to Have Nukes “Soon”
Seventy-seven percent (77%) of Americans believe that Iran is likely to develop nuclear weapons in the near future. Most doubt that anything can be done to prevent such a development.
These findings from the latest Rasmussen Reports poll come as officials of a United Nations’ agency complained to the Bush Administration about a Congressional report on Iran’s nuclear capabilities. Representatives from the U.N.’s International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) called parts of the report “outrageous and dishonest,” and suggested that misleading information about the true status of Iran’s nuclear capabilities has been released to the public.
