A recent poll in Lebanon revealed that 72 percent of Lebanese are in favor of disarming Palestinians in Lebanon, while 54 percent are in favor of ousting pro-Syrian President Emile Lahoud.
Fifty-two percent expressed the belief that Lebanon was on the right track.
The poll also revealed that 55 percent of Lebanese were pleased with the first 100 days of Premier Saniora's government, and nearly a third of those polled cited the UN investigation into the assassination of former Premier Rafiq Hariri as Saniori's top priority.
55 percent supported the disarmament of Hizbullah and Lebanon's Palestinians under Security Council Resolution 1559.
The poll, published on Tuesday by Naharnet, was conducted by the Statistics Lebanon Ltd. Company and expressed the views of a cross-section of Lebanon's population in Beirut, Mt. Lebanon, the north, south and the Bekaa valley.
