Poll: Egyptians Embrace Revolt Leaders, Religious Parties and Military, As Well

U.S. Wins No Friends, End of Treaty With Israel Sought

Egyptians are optimistic about the changes that have transformed their country’s politics. Overwhelmingly, they say it is good that former president Hosni Mubarak is gone, and nearly two-in-three are satisfied with the way things are going in Egypt.

The military is very well regarded, and most have a positive opinion of both the Muslim Brotherhood and the April 6 Movement, as well as political leaders Amr Moussa and Mohamed ElBaradei. The U.S., however, continues to receive negative ratings. And a slim majority of Egyptians want to annul the peace treaty with Israel.
