Another day, another depressing fact that you wish wasn’t actually true. Roughly 30% of Republican voters in the US has said in a poll that they would be in favour of bombing Agrabah – you know, the fictional country in the film Aladdin. Results released by Public Policy Polling revealed the harsh reality, with a second tweet revealing that Trump’s popularity is at 45% with this group of people, and only 22% with those who don’t want to inflict warfare on Aladdin and Jasmine:

30% of Republican primary voters nationally say they support bombing Agrabah. Agrabah is the country from Aladdin. #NotTheOnion

Trump is at 45% with Republicans who want to bomb Aladdin and only 22% with ones who don't want to bomb Aladdin — PublicPolicyPolling (@ppppolls) December 18, 2015

In its poll, Public Policy Polling asked the 532 Republicans: “Would you support or oppose bombing Agrabah?” While 57% of responders said they were not sure, 30% said they supported bombing it. Only 13% opposed it… which means there were likely some of the 57% who were sitting on the fence. What’s probably a little concerning is that of those polled, one in three of 18-45-year-olds supported a bombing – with a huge amount of those having been kids when the Disney classic was released. Other unnerving facts from the poll included one in four of those polled by the PPP believing that Islam should be illegal in the US, and that 36% believe that thousands of Arabs in New Jersey cheered when the World Trade Center collapsed on 9/11.
