American opinions of Islam changing

The Washington Post has a new poll has come out that finally makes a little sense.

...A majority now say that Muslims are disproportionately prone to violence

What was your first clue?

The Anklebiters note a few instances:

Hmm, let's see what Islamofascists have been up to in the last decade or so: The USS Cole Bombing, The Khobar Towers Bombing, The African Embassy Bombings, Suicide bombings in Israel, the first WTC attack, the Bali bombings, the London Tube bombings, the attacks in Spain, funding and leading the "insurgency" in Iraq, killing people and rioting over FRIGGIN CARTOONS, the streets of Paris burning, and that little thing called 9/11 just to name a few.

Read the rest of Anklebiters analysis here.

The poll found that nearly half of Americans -- 46 percent -- have a negative view of Islam, seven percentage points higher than in the tense months after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon...

OK, up 7 points... What has happened since 9/11... Quoting the Anklebiters again,

The London Tube bombings, the attacks in Spain, funding and leading the "insurgency" in Iraq, killing people and rioting over FRIGGIN CARTOONS, the streets of Paris burning...

I think the suprise here is that it is not up more than 7 points.

James J. Zogby, president of the Washington-based Arab American Institute, said he is not surprised by the poll's results.

I don't even know how to take that. Is he saying, I knew all these Americans were bigots?

Politicians, authors and media commentators have demonized the Arab world since 2001, he said.

Bullcrap. People have finally noticed that almost all of the terrorism in the world today is related somehow to Islam.

We are told that not all Muslims are terrorists. Of course not. No one thinks that. But so far, almost all terrorists are Muslims.
