CNN Poll: Americans Don’t Trust Muslims: “Muslims Are At War With The U.S.”
The truth shall set you free…
STORY HIGHLIGHTS
Poll: One in five Americans has a favorable view of Muslim countries
Poll released on eve of President Obama’s speech in Cairo, Egypt, to Muslim world
Poll: Americans say they aren’t at war with Muslims but think Muslims at war with U.S.
WASHINGTON (CNN) — Shortly before President Obama departs for a trip to the Middle East, a new national poll suggests that one in five Americans has a favorable view of Muslim countries.
That view compares with 46 percent of the people questioned in a CNN/Opinion Research Corp. survey who say they have an unfavorable opinion of Muslim countries. That’s up 5 percentage points from 2002, when 41 percent indicated that they had an unfavorable view.
Meanwhile, three in 10 say they have a neutral opinion of Muslim countries.
The poll also suggests that most Americans suspect people in Muslim countries don’t think highly of the United States. Nearly eight in 10 questioned say people in Muslim countries have a unfavorable opinion of the United States, with 14 percent saying Muslims hold a favorable view.
But the poll indicates Americans seem to be split on whether such negative opinions by Muslims matter. Fifty-three percent of those questioned say they think Muslim views of the United States matter greatly or moderately, with 47 percent saying that Muslim opinions of the United States don’t matter very much or at all.
The poll’s release comes hours before the president flies to Saudi Arabia for meetings with King Abdullah. Following the stop in Saudi Arabia, Obama will head to Egypt, where he’ll deliver a long-awaited speech Thursday on relations between the United States and the Muslim world.
At a town hall in Turkey earlier this year, the president declared that “the United States is not, and will never be, at war with Islam.”
Many Americans seem to agree with the president: Sixty-two percent of those surveyed say they don’t think the United States is at war with the Muslim world, with 36 percent indicating that the country is at war with Muslim countries. Those numbers have remained stable since CNN’s 2002 poll.
But the poll suggests that six out of 10 think that the Muslim world considers itself at war with the United States.
“The feeling seems to be mutual. We distrust Muslims. They distrust Americans. Views of Americans have not changed very much over the past seven years. There are some indications that Muslims’ views of Americans have improved a bit since Barack Obama took office, but they are still not positive,” said Bill Schneider, CNN senior political analyst.
The CNN/Opinion Research poll was conducted May 14-17, with 1,010 adult Americans questioned by telephone. The survey’s sampling error is plus or minus 3 percentage points.

Well no shit Sherlock! How long did it take you to figure this one out?
It is my belief that the 3 of 10 that had a neutral opinion of Muslim countries are casualties of the Frankford school.
I prefer turning islamofuck countries into fields of glass.
and harvest it and sell it back to them…
-aTb
Well, gee, here I was thinking the adherents of the death cult were all nice and flowery-like. After all, we have a hole in New York City to prove it.
Obama looks like he’s resisting the urge to bow in that picture. (”I want to! I really, really want to!”)
Except I can’t because of the 2X4 I have stuck down my back under my suit…that my white boy Gibbs put there.
YERMOM is at war with Muslims
aTb has been at war with muslims since 2003!!! and I have spread the hate for all fellow Constitution loving Americans ever since! and will continue to!
-aTb
Actually, the Constitution shows that America has been at war with these fucks since the beginning. Isn’t it in Article 1 that the Standing Navy shall always maintain an infantry (Marines)? We were at war with piraz … sea going jihadists that are now called the Barberry Coast Pirates.
roger that Tarantula….you are correct!
-aTb
More like, “aw come on guys, not while the cameras are here. I will show my respect when they are gone.”
Like a new born calf
I’d like to know how many people know Obama is a muslim.
or how much muslim dick hes sucked
Then how did a muslim get elected as potus??
Oh yeah our marxist media covered his ass.
As they will with his speech he is about to give, it will not go well with American here.
His ratings went down after he gave the speech in germany.
If muslims still do not trust Americans then why the fuck are they here? thats right, so they can take us down from the inside. take their sorry asses home.
I’ve been at war with them since 9/11.
At a town hall in Turkey earlier this year, the president declared that “the United States is not, and will never be, at war with Islam.”
How could he make a statement like this unless he knows for sure we will never be? How he knows is because he is securing a dictatorship
I have been to far to many Muslim nations to have any blanket stereotypes about them. Right now there are some elements of there religion that are very dangerous, however that does not put the 1.2 billion of them on that same “to do” list.
Any thoughts on a recent report that the Taliban are being armed by India with US and Indian weapons?
Like the Vietnam vets say kill em all let God sort em out!
Good infidel…
sassy, I agree…..I have been here fighting these ragheaded fucks since 2003…and one thing I know….they are professional liars and will turn on you in a dime…no honor in them! keep em in their muslim country and not bring em to our judeo christian country!!!!
-aTb
and us Desert Vets say the same thing!
-aTb
20% have a favorable view
Translation: 1 of 5 Americans is either Muslim or fears Muslims enough to cower and would willingly switch to Islam to stay alive when the Jihadists come knocking.
Who cares….if it was not for the oil the Muslim world would be worse off than any other community in the world
1) they have no brains 2) they have no universites 3) they believe only in killing 4) they don’t educate their women 5) they preach hate 6) koran says convert anyone who is not a Muslim or kill him……sorry I want to live and don’t want to be a Muslim. Love my bacon and my beer
Maybe we can talk The Saudis or the Egyptians into keeping their Kenyan brother…
So when do the men at Cent Com come to America and free America from Obama, Reid and Pelosi? (all Muslim)
How would you like to stand up and defend our Muslim president and leadership right now?
Centcom won’t free us that is NORCOM job.

Good thing we have A REAL HOPE.We will never see this take place.
They are forgetting one thing. The religion of peace is not. Wait until Iran gets a nuke. You can kill tens of millions with a nuke.
My guess is that a nuclear war is coming and it will be a Sunni v Shi’ite war. Plus there is always the horrible possibility of a bio-weapon getting out of hand and wiping out, say S’audi Arabia or taking down, let’s say, 50% of the people in Europe.
That would put a dent in those demographics.
Or this conversation is moot.
I don’t trust anyone that flies on a carpet.
LOFL

Its a religion of world domination, people just don’t get it.
So let me get this straight.
It took CNN Viewers almost 8 years after September 11th, 2001 to figure out that Muslims are war with the United States?
Man talk about a slow learning crowd over there at CNNN.
I mean Muslims are the same people that if given half a chance would kill you, you family, your pet dog, and walk next door and cut your neighbors head off with a ginsu knife and film it to put it on YouTube.
Nice to see the Special ED viewers over at CNN, finally catching up.
…I’m also at war with “THE” muslim….

The sheet comes off in Cairo! Will it be the signal for the islamic uprising in the US? Tune in, arm up and flip out! You have entered the Twilight Zone! You cannot make this stuff up!
LMAO……………..slow learners yep
the United States went to war with Muslims when Thomas Jefferson sent the Marines to Tripoli. We stopped but they never did.
Some folks won’t learn till they are on their knees, but not everyone is ignoring the situation, take a look at what I found on Gates of Vienna

Western Civilization is under assault very heavily from two fronts. First, there is the global Gramscian Marxist movement, which now makes itself even more dangerous because it is allied with the Muslims. And then there is dar al Islam, which has been at war with the non-Muslim world since Muhammad began raiding the caravans outside of Medina in 622 A.D.
The Marxists are engaging in all manner of subterfuge on behalf of the Ummah.
It would behoove every person outside of dar al Islam - we who inhabit dar al Harb - to read three things:
1. Qur’an
2. some translations of ahadith
3. some histories of the life and deeds of Muhammad
Once you have done this, you will never again fall for the obfuscating explanations by Leftists and taqiyya spewing so-called “Westernized” Muslims.
Well Duh!!!!!

These fuckers behead another hostage and it goes unnoticed. WTF

that point always gets forgotten by the libral media
“that point always gets forgotten by the libral media”
That’s because its not he liberal media anymore its the enemy propaganda machine now! There is no sense of loyalty or patriotism to the country which grants them the very freedom which they are using to broadcast the enemy’s message.
