When Americans Are Informed Of What A NATO No-Fly Zone Really Means Support Drops To Just 23%
Opposition doubles when people find out it means a World War with Russia

A new Yahoo News/YouGov poll has revealed that when Americans are informed of what a NATO no-fly zone over Ukraine would really mean, shooting down Russian planes, support for it drops from 40 percent to just 23 percent.
Other recent polls have suggested that significant numbers are in favour of the measure, and the media has become obsessed with pushing for what could easily kick start a third world war.
However, opposition to the no-fly zone almost doubled to 43 percent, according to the poll, once respondents were told it would essentially mean war with Russia.
The new poll includes a split form test of ‘no fly zone’ — support plummets when respondents told NFZ means “the U.S. military would shoot down Russian military planes flying over Ukraine, possibly triggering a war between the U.S. and Russia” https://t.co/8rK3mgcuci pic.twitter.com/2lbjxE6O75

Among Republicans support for a no-fly zone shifted from a 22-point margin IN FAVOUR (48% to 26%), to a 38-point margin AGAINST it (55% to 17%).”
A separate poll conducted by Quinnipiac found that while three quarters of Americans want the U.S. to supply aid to Ukraine, 54 percent agree with NATO’s continued refusal to enforce a no-fly zone, while just 32% want the measure instituted.
Interestingly, the poll found that more Democrats are against the no-fly zone, than Republicans, with 58 percent of Dems against the no-fly zone, compared to 47 percent of Republicans.
Worryingly, Democrats like AOC sound more reasonable than some establishment GOP figures on the matter.
