It's quite a long article but it's very interesting. It's mostly about how the world views America but also about Iran and how different nations view different issues.
For me some of the most interesting and telling bits were:
America has by far and away the biggest percentage of the population who think Global warming is not an issue. :mumble:
Reports about U.S. prison abuses at Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo have attracted broad attention in Western Europe and Japan - more attention, in fact, than in the United States. Roughly three-quarters of Americans (76%) say they have heard of the prison abuses, compared with about 90% or more in the four Western European countries and Japan.
The populations of Germany, France and the UK are apparantly most informed about world affairs. (In that order - Germany the most.)
