Fox News Poll: 65 percent say use force to stop Iran, 84 percent call possible deal 'bad idea'
Fox News ^ | March 4, 2015 | Dana Blanton

Americans fear disaster if Iran gets nuclear weapons -- and support military force to stop it.

According to a new Fox News poll, voters feel:

- It would be “a disaster” if Iran obtains the capability to use nuclear weapons.

- The U.S. has not been aggressive enough in stopping Iran from getting nukes.

- U.S. military action is the right thing to do to keep Iran from developing a nuclear weapon.

- A deal that just delays Iran’s nuclear time-table is a bad idea.

- Barack Obama is a weak negotiator with foreign leaders.

- It was a good idea to invite Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to speak to Congress.

Do we even know what the “possible deal” is?

This seems to be another “ we need to agree to the deal before we can see what the deal is

The thing that really gives Obama a chubby is forcing the majority to accept something outrageous that it absolutely doesn’t want.

We’ve been dancing around the issue since Jimmy the Jackass let Iran get away with taking hostages. Its time something clear and memorable happened.

He has violated his oath of office and Congress is afraid of a so called race war if they impeach the treasonous ass.

Any poll connected with Fox News will be dismissed out of hand.

They didn’t show up in 2012 to stop Obama, so what difference does it make now?

84 % of us against the deal might just be enough to encourage Obama to push it through with just his pen and phone!

I imagine a msnbc poll would say just the opposite that we should give Iran our nukes so they don’t have to go to so much trouble making their own nukes.

Just wait til IS attacks an American hotel with a gas tanker and burns it to the ground with 3,000 Americans inside—or some other horific act their twisted minds can come up with—Burn a children’s Hospital? Or a vegas Casino? Or blow up a cruise ship and roll her over. Then how many will want to stay at home? And if Iran is involved—war. It will take something as terrible as this to pull the MSM over to the side of revenge and retrobution. Wait til mobs of people—of all classes—march in the streets and if anyone opposes them—they will face a mob that will make Watts look like a picknic. They will burn down the NY Times!

Yep. One problem is Iran can launder these terrorist ops thru ISIS or al qaeda. They can have others do their dirty work.
