While the Obama Administration’s position on Syria continues to change, there is never any doubt among officials that getting involved in the nation’s civil war is something they should be doing.
Yet another new poll has been released, however, this time from Fox News, showing overwhelming opposition among American voters to the idea of getting involved. The poll showed only 23 percent of voters approve involvement, compared to 68 percent who did not.
And unlike a lot of polls, this one shows solidarity across party lines, with 70 percent of Republicans, 69 percent of Democrats, and 65 percent of Independents opposing involvement.
The results reflect a growing opposition compared to similar polls from Reuters and CBS in late April, which both showed solid opposition of 61 and 63 percent, respectively. Though the Obama Administration has repeatedly insisted polls won’t drive their policy, such overwhelming American opposition to meddling in Syria seems like it will be difficult to ignore.

Poll Shows Overwhelming Opposition to US Attacking Syria

The timing for this Syrian Revolution couldn't be worse for the free world. It is coming after 12 years of war in Afghanistan and Iraq. Asking Europe and the U.S. to do more than arm the rebels at this point likely isn't going to fly. However, this might leave Israel twisting in the wind against foes like Russia and Iran and Syria. So, Europe and the U.S. might be forced into this war very soon to protect Israel from non-existence. It could all happen in a flash. So watch very carefully now because things are starting to change pretty fast over there at this point.
