41. They seem to think so, too, the Iraqis

Polls I've seen since last summer have shown what you say to be true. It used to be as high as 75% and is lower now.

This is from February 2004 (Pdf)

The situation is very complex, but Iraqis seem not to want the coalition troops to leave until the situation is straightened out and they have security. They do want their own government, of course, but they don't want even more chaos or a civil war or a religious government. They do want a democratic government. They want the US and Japan to take care of the reconstruction.

This poll was posted on Salam Pax's blog.
