Poll: World Trusts Ahmadinejad More than Bush as a Leader

worldpublicopinion.org — Global source of public opinion research on international affairs and policy. New polls of European, Asian, and American opinion are released. Findings from international polling organizations such as Gallup, Pew, Zogby, and Eurobarometer are analyzed.

Personally I think Bush's administration is the far greater global risk, Ahmadinejad's administration quite frankly doesn't even appear on the radar. And why would it?

The IAEA have been allowed to inspect and have found no evidence of an active nuclear weapons programme. Iran is crippled by inflation and Ahmadinejad's party recently took a battering in an election. Whilst Ahmadinejad may make many off colour remarks globally he has no teeth and no way of obtaining any in his quickly expiring presidential term. When the Bush Administration makes a wayward decision however you're talking about the word's most advanced military power with the most precarious, propped up yet still most influential currency in the world and a distinct lack of properly working checks and balances to counsel its actions.

The evidence is clear that of the two Republics the Iranian political situation and the Iranian electorate are the more capable of holding their President accountable. And that really is reason for concern if you're an American.

The evidence is abundantly clear that of the two administrations the US administration has the reach, the power and the global intent to act in a wayward manner if not held accountable by its people. And that really is reason for concern if you're an American or live somewhere on the globe.

I'd be willing to bet that less than 1/4 of adults in this world even know who Ahmadinejad is.

@FatLester
I think you'd be right to make that bet. I also think that it is a major part of the problem.
