Republican voters support bombing of Aladdin's town
Almost one-third of Republican primary voters would support bombing the fictional kingdom of Agrabah, according to a report released by Public Policy Polling on Friday.
More than 530 Republican primary voters were polled this week on their support for Republican candidates and foreign policy issues including banning Muslims from entering the US, Japanese internment camps from the second world war and bombing Agrabah, the kingdom from Disney’s animated classic, Aladdin.
These types of surveys are stupid, and are just put out to make Republicans look bad. Most people are not familiar with names of Arabic cities, and they probably support the overall policy. Not everyone has seen Aladdin.
As a democrat my first thought would be to ask where is Agrabah? all they hear is a foreign middle eastern sounding country and they want to bomb it poor republicans

So people support bombing a place they never heard of because it sounds Arabic?

I'd definitely question the accuracy of those statistics for a LOT of reasons (for example, what about the Republicans who know those aren't all foreign policy and wouldn't answer? Surely there's at least one who said "err.... that ain't accurate")
That said... it's pretty hard to argue the ones who votes "yes" aren't stupid. And the argument of "Hey! Agrabah sounds vaguely Arabic! Let's blow it up!" is so insane that it borders on troll logic
Stupid people everywhere, just look at the Yale students that signed the petition that would abolish the first amendment. The very amendment that allows the right to petition.
