Polls really don't mean anything. Pollsters can slant the results based upon how the question is phrased and what demographic group is asked. Considering that the majority of religious people in Russia attend the Russian Orthodox church is no surprise that a majority of those polled support the ministry of justice application of the extremist laws against Jehovah's Witnesses. The real question for those Russian citizens is, "Do you support the constitutions right of freedom of religion?" That is something that hopefully their courts will eventually get around to tackling. But, regardless, Jehovah will take care of matters in his due time and in his own way.
