| in the Center for Security Policy's poll of June 23, 2015 the following was found, to wit Overall, the survey, which was conducted by The Polling Company for the Center for Security Policy (CSP), suggests that a substantial number of Muslims living in the United States see the country very differently than does the population overall. The sentiments of the latter were sampled in late May in another CSP-commissioned Polling Company nationwide survey.According to the just-released survey of Muslims, a majority (51%) agreed that “Muslims in America should have the choice of being governed according to shariah.” When that question was put to the broader U.S. population, the overwhelming majority held that shariah should not displace the U.S. Constitution (86% to 2%).More than half (51%) of U.S. Muslims polled also believe either that they should have the choice of American or shariah courts, or that they should have their own tribunals to apply shariah. Only 39% of those polled said that Muslims in the U.S. should be subject to American courts.These notions were powerfully rejected by the broader population according to the Center’s earlier national survey. It found by a margin of 92%-2% that Muslims should be subject to the same courts as other citizens, rather than have their own courts and tribunals here in the U.S.Even more troubling, is the fact that nearly a quarter of the Muslims polled believed that, “It is legitimate to use violence to punish those who give offense to Islam by, for example, portraying the prophet Mohammed.” |

| Somehow that's comforting? I was told I was stupid for saying that 7% of American Muslims believed in justified terrorism. So, 11% ??? out of 3Million American Muslims that would be 330,000 American Muslims that are OK with it. |

| One of the ways that terrorists justify their actions is that they consider, say, a child to be a future soldier or such. So that MIGHT be an element that needs to be teased out in this survey you mentioned; namely, just who do they consider civilians, innocent, etc? |

| Ah, sorry guys, I forgot to post the rest of the survey.The same survey revealed that 75% of Jews believed it was never permissible for individuals or small groups to target and kill civilians. So, given that there 6.8 Million Jews in America, then 25%, or 1.7 million Jews see justification in the killing of innocents to advance some sort of agenda.But wait! That is isn't your biggest problem. 71% of Catholics believed it was never permissible for individuals or small groups to target and kill civilians. So that leaves 29% of America's 69.4 million Catholics - a staggering 20 million - seeing justification in the killing of innocents to advance some sort of agenda.However, 71% of Protestants also believed it was never permissible for individuals or small groups to target and kill civilians. There's 150 million Protestants in the US, so that would mean you're harboring 29% of them (over 43 million) who are potential terrorists.Which goes to confirm what I learned growing up in Belfast, Northern Ireland. It's those Protestants and Catholics that you really need to be keeping your eye on when it comes to terrorism.

| That's a pretty disturbing survey, and not because of the Muslim respondents. |

| There is quite the epidemic of Catholics kidnapping and taking a couple hundred girls into sex slavery, flying planes into buildings, lopping off people's heads, lighting people on fire, confiscating property?There is no moral equivalency.Islam isn't just a religion. It's a system of conquest. |
