Published January 14, 2026

Democrats and Republicans are united in opposing U.S. military strikes against Iran to retaliate for the killing of protesters amid a wave of massive demonstrations against the Iranian government in recent weeks, according to a new national poll.

Seventy percent of voters questioned in a new Quinnipiac University survey said they think the U.S. should not get involved militarily in Iran, with 18% saying the U.S. should take military action.

The vast majority of Independents (80%-11%) and Democrats (79%-7%), as well as a majority of Republicans (53%-35%) said the U.S. should not get involved if protesters in Iran are killed while demonstrating against the regime.

What about this don't you understand? Yes, 55–60% oppose U.S. strikes on Iran, but the issue is not whether or a majority support something (majority support for same‑sex marriage at 68–71% - Gallup/Pew 2024–2025, opposition now minority; 29%' and about two-thirds of U.S. adults think abortion should be legal in all or most cases; 72% opposition oppose restricting a woman’s right to contraception) but the issue is whether it was and is warranted, when allies are being mass murdered. And is intent on eliminating a major US ally, as part of a confederation.
