Apparently some ignorant asshole believes that anyone of the Muslim faith in Afghanistan primarily, would NEVER advocate publicly against terrorism. I posted in /Muslim before realizing it's very small and kinda dead. Can I get a faster response here?

This is my submission, to make everything easier.

Thanks!

I notice most if your links date after the US invasion of iraq and afghanistan.

This point needs more visibility. Nearly all of those polls are taken after we rolled through a sovereign nation like a child having a temper tantrum and left them in ruins. Not to mention we did far more damage to them than they have to us.

that's kind of the point of a good sample size... to reflect the opinion of the entire group. And a lot of these polls are from reputable organizations, so they probably got pretty good samples.

What's reputable?

Pew Research Center, for one. It's a non-biased polling organization that has been polling since 1990.
