An in-depth poll of Muslim countries [3] has found that large majorities believe undermining Islam is a key goal of U.S. foreign policy. Most want U.S. military forces out of the Middle East, and many approve of attacks on U.S. troops there. "While U.S. leaders may frame the conflict as a war on terrorism, people in the Islamic world clearly perceive the U.S. as being at war with Islam," said Steven Kull, editor of WorldPublicOpinion.org [4]. However, respondents strongly oppose attacks on civilians. Large majorities approve of many of al Qaeda [5]'s principal goals, but believe its violence against civilians is "violating the principles of Islam."
