Actually I believe that enlightenment06 was refering to either the BBC world poll, or the ABC (Australian Broadcasting Corp.) poll, or the CBC (Canadian Broadcasting Corp.), or the Rueters poll, or the CNN Iternatational opinion polls.

They all stated that a majority of people polled, including ones from coalition countires, viewed Bush as a threat to world security and peace. They ranked the threat posed by the Bush admin. as the most likely to lead to further conflict.

Admittedly it wasn't a scientific poll, but a public opinion poll, conducted by interviewing people on the street. I have no idea who they asked, or the exact phrasing of the question.
