Rasmussen Reports:

Seventy-five percent (75%) of Americans describe North Korea as an enemy of the United States. Only four percent (4%) view the isolated Communist state as an ally, and 15% say it’s somewhere in between an ally and enemy...

...Iran is seen an enemy by 70% of adults, while five percent (5%) describe it as an American ally. Twenty percent (20%) place it somewhere in between.

The two countries have rotated in and out of the top spot for months when voters are asked which country is the greatest national security s threat to the United States.

Several other Middle Eastern Islamic countries are next, but then few Americans regard any country in that region other than Israel as a friend of America’s.

It's interesting to note that while Americans don't regard most Middle Eastern countries as friends, their elected leaders do, and shower them with weapons and aid. Go figure.
