Poll: Afghan Opposition to US Grows
-----------------------------------



In Afghanistan, a new poll shows growing opposition to the US
occupation. According to ABC News, a quarter of Afghans now support
attacks on US troops, double the number from two years ago. 32 percent
said US troops are performing well, down from 68 percent in 2005. One in
five Afghans said US-led forces have killed civilians in their area in
the past year.
