IRI Poll: 80% support for Shari`ah; Inflation and Employment, not Terrorism, Seen as “most important” Issue

Teeth Maestro reports on the tenth survey of opinion in Pakistan, released by the International Republican Institute: see the charts and graphs using this link [PDF], and the descriptive review, here [PDF].

Read the Teeth Maestro’s analysis of results — noting, however, the substantial bias in the sample frame toward higher income groups (52% of the sample earned over Rs 10,000 per month).

The Report also shows overwhelming support (80%) for the peace deal, and enforcement of shari`ah, in Swat, with a high (74%) expectation that this would lead to peace; and the majority (52%) disagree with military action.
