Poll: Half of Americans believe U.S. military actions will destabilize the Middle East.

A joint American online poll conducted by Reuters and Ipsos shows that half of the respondents believe that U.S. military actions against Iran in the coming year will undermine stability in the Middle East, while only 17% think that such actions will make the region more stable. In addition, there are differing opinions among Republican supporters regarding the U.S.-Iran conflict. As the Strait of Hormuz remains blocked, about 58% of respondents expect gasoline prices to rise further.
