UTICA, NY — A small majority backs the U.S.-led no-fly zone
in Libya, including a third who would consider taking additional military
action according to the latest IBOPE Zogby Interactive poll.
The results are from a poll of 2,168 likely voters conducted
from March 18-21, 2011. The United Nations Security Council voted to authorize
military action and the imposition of a no-flight zone on March 18 and an
ensuing air campaign led by the U.S. began the next day.
A total of 57% approve of the no-fly zone. The number
consists of 24% who favor only the no-fly zone and another 33% who also support
it “with an open possibility of further engagement.” A fifth thinks
the U.S. should be offering only humanitarian help.
