The poll on the 2nd link is an interesting one. It appears that by a majority Iranians favor supporting the destruction of Israel and continuing the support of Shiite militias in Iraq and only favor allowing the survival of Israel or stopping the funding of hezbollah and shiites if it is a part of an agreement with the U.S. or the west to promote greater trade and investment in Iran and free movement into the U.S.

Interesting. It's almost as though they are saying: "Destroy Israel, but I'll agree to let Israel survive if my child can go to college in the west or the west invests in the economy of Iran."
