New Poll Shows Worry Over Islamic Terror Threat, to Be Detailed in Special FNC Report
FoxNews ^ | Feb. 1, 2007 | FoxNews

The roar of “Death to America” chants from thousands of militants eager to cause destruction in the U.S. has become a staple of television in Islamic countries — and the vast majority of Americans think Washington should take that threat seriously.

That’s the finding of a new FOX News Poll, which asked Americans to rate the threats emanating from broadcasts in the Arab world.

In a sample of 900 registered voters nationwide, 64% said the threats should be taken “very seriously” and another 24% thought they should be taken “somewhat seriously.”

The poll was conducted for a FOX News documentary, “Radical Islam: Terror in Its Own Words,” which premieres Saturday Feb. 3 at 9 p.m. and at midnight on the FOX News Channel.

The program contains a shocking variety of rarely seen news clips, interviews and Al Qaeda video purportedly of suicide bombers as they prepare for their missions and blow themselves up in bids to kill Americans in Afghanistan and Iraq.

The FOX News documentary also contains never-before-broadcast video of Islamic clerics in the United States predicting and even threatening violence against Americans at home.

As one of those Islamic clerics put it as he took a stage on the campus of the University of California at Irvine just two days before 9/11, “If you don't give us justice, if you don't give us equality, if you don't give us our share of America,” he said. “We're gonna burn America down.”

There are 2 redundancies that the media use way too often that drive me crazy: "vast majority" and "Young children"There, just had to get that off my chest!

Anyone who has seen "OBSESSION, The movie has no doubt that we are in grave danger from the Islamofascists. I hope this new program tomorrow will open some more eyes.

Just wondering...any thoughts as to whether or not Fox will run any promos of '24' during the airing of this report?

I say "Bring it on."

First, the primary targets are likely Dems thereby improving our numbers on the voter rolls.

Those who live will likely be more sympathetic to our solutions.

The words we will hear will undoubtedly be in english. By all accounts, in arabic or whatever language they speak, their words are far more hate filled, murderous, and threatening.
