Concerns over Islamic extremism, extensive in the West even before terrorist attacks in London, are shared to a considerable degree by the publics in several predominantly Muslim nations surveyed.

At the same time, most Muslim publics are expressing less support for terrorism than in the past. Confidence in Osama bin Laden has declined markedly in some countries and fewer believe suicide bombings that target civilians are justified in the defense of Islam.
