There are number of Christians in this country who believe bombing clinics or killing people who perform abortions is justified to stop abortions. It probably is not 1 on 4, but I would bet that at least that many would lend their support and approval to those that would perform those acts of terrorism. There are a lot more extremist Christians in this country than Muslims.

Is it a concern? Of course!
But it's also essential for us to realize that this means three in four said it's not acceptable. We need to make sure those Muslims are working to help us by opposing radical Islam. If we pick a fight with all Muslims just because of 1 in 4, we can't do that.

WASHINGTON - One in four YOUNGER U.S. Muslims say suicide bombings to defend their religion are acceptable at least in some circumstances, though MOST Muslim Americans overwhelmingly reject the tactic and are critical of Islamic extremism and al-Qaida, a poll says.
Don't be so misleading with your words....
The article says "at least in some circumstances"...
How is that any different than saying that going to war is ok "in some circumstances"?
We can all think of possible situations that might drive us to the point of violence...

"One in four younger U.S. Muslims say suicide bombings to defend their religion are acceptable at least in some circumstances, though most Muslim Americans overwhelmingly reject the tactic and are critical of Islamic extremism and al-Qaida, a poll says."
For one thing - this is a poll only. It is fallible. Key word here is 'defend' their religion as in 'defending' the Muslim religion in Palestine/Israel.
The article you site goes on to say: "...[the American Muslims are] a community that in many ways blends comfortably into society. Its largely mainstream members express nearly as much happiness with their lives and communities as the general public does, show a broad willingness to adopt American customs, and have income and education levels similar to others in the U.S.
So, no, as an American I am not concerned. 'These people' as you call them are my neighbors and I like that they are part of my community.

I don't think so. Reading the article it says 80 percent condone it which 13 percent say its justifiable. I'm sure if this question were asked to Christians, the numbers would be the same. There will always be extremists in any religion.

they say that they persist with the Koran in each and every thing. yet the place,in the Koran is suicide approved under and circumstances ? Suicide bombers are promised seventy-2 beautiful youthful virgins. Is that during the Koran ? Mullahs and Imams intrepret the Koran in the way that gets them extra potential and impression. The stupid human beings say that he's conscious the choose of Allah. this is totally unusual that Allah continually wills precisely what reward the ambition of the Mullah the main. bear in mind the previous asserting, " once you come across a fool, use him ".

No. The survey said 1 in 4 YOUNG Muslims. Presumably, many of them will grow out of it but the number is worrisome nonetheless.

that is not a real good thing for muslims living here.
what a pity they would even answer such a loaded question.
that is too bad for most of peace on this earth due to everyone fighting. there should be way more tolerance
in this world........
peace......
