A new Fox News poll finds that nearly a quarter of voters (23 percent) thinks the U.S. should get more involved because it’s a humanitarian crisis and Syria is a strategically important country. However, nearly three times as many, 68 percent, say the U.S. should stay out because it’s a civil war and the U.S. could actually end up helping anti-American extremist groups.
Syria is a rare instance of agreement across the political spectrum: majorities of independents (65 percent), Democrats (69 percent) and Republicans (70 percent) agree the United States should stay out of Syria.
Voters who have served in the military also say the U.S. should not intervene (67 percent).

muslims killing muslims?
Arm both sides, and stay out of the way.
But... but... but... we have to install another Morsi, we just have to!

32% responded we’d be going only to steal their funny little cars and strange looking hats...
I would have great difficulty in supporting ANY war while Obama and his democrats remain in power.
Poll numbers seem about right
Agreed! The Idiot-In-Chief should keep his ass out of the war room. It’s no place for community organizers!
I support gun control in the middle east LOL
Wow. Even Leftists seem to be awakening to the fact that the ‘uprisings’ we funded have put Radical Islamists in control. He** must be freezing over.
Not our fight. Not our war.
Stay the **** out of that POS country.
NO WAR FOR.... um... whatever they hell it is they have there.!!!
This is one of those rare moments in which I’m glad McCain wasn’t elected. By now, that old neocon POS would’ve had our troops getting shot up doing “stabilization ops” in Aleppo.
I agree, there is no good side to this conflict and frankly it is not our battle, unless Assad seriously threatens Israel. All we need to do is to contain Assad and not let him export his weapons to Lebanon.
We need to ask ourselves if we would be any better off with all of Saddam’s WMDs in the hands of the Muslim Brotherhood.
sounds like a win/win situation to me; let them kill each other off, then we nuke the winner.
how about WWII?
Too late, the black moslem jihadist living in the White House is backing another Al Qaeda Arab Spring. He kissed and made up with the Bengazzi brigade.
And all of our self-rightoutness about saving the Jews doesn't mean squat since we turned away ships of Jews trying to flee.
I have a reflexive love if Israel, but it is not, and could never be, sufficient to want to send one tax dollar there, or anywhere outside of our borders.
