Egyptians and relations with the US: putting a positive spin

"Nevertheless, Egyptians are divided on the matter of how important it is for their country to have good relations with the United States with 48% saying it is important and 51% saying it is not important.  The July poll shows that the US still has a reservoir of good will to draw on with one-half of Egyptians still viewing relations with the US as important."  But one-half (plus 1%) also view the relations as unimportant?  (thanks Basim)
