Surprising. I would like to read the poll questions and see if there was a skew involved. I am American and live in Saudi, and there is no love lost for Iran here. I have never heard a bit of support for a nuclear Iran.

Arabs realize that even Iran is more trustworthy for them than the US and Europe.
Don't like this? Work to stop the Iraq and Afghanistan wars.
