Americans Divided on U.S. Strikes Against Iran

0:00It's March 10th. Here's what's happening around the world. Poles show Americans are split on U.S. military action against Iran, mostly along party lines, since the conflict started. Overall, more people oppose the strikes than support them. Republicans largely backed the president on this, but many hesitate at the idea of sending ground troops. That fits with his campaign promise to avoid endless wars and focus on America first. These message polls from the Washington Post and CNN, right after the U.S. and Israel strikes, began found similar results, with opposition ahead. A Fox News survey was closer, with half of voters approving and half against. President Trump said on Monday, the U.S. will hit back harder if Iran tries to block global oil supplies. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth called it foolish to spell out limits publicly. As the war spreads across the Middle East, many Americans feel these choices have made the country less safe. The administration admits casualties are likely and has not ruled out boots on the ground.
