EU: Half of Europeans say Islam is a religion of intolerance
(click image to enlarge)The Friedrich-Ebert-Foundation published a study on intolerance and prejudice in Europe. The study "Intolerance, Prejudice and Discrimination" is available in German and English. I bring below the section relating to Muslims.
Via FES (h/t Euro-Islam.info):
After statistical testing, three statements were used to produce the anti-Muslim attitudes mean scale (Table 7, items 18 to 20). These cover the general impression that there are too many Muslims in the country, the charge that Muslims make too many demands, and broad-brush criticism of Islam as a religion of intolerance. Four further statements were surveyed in a random half of the sample.

We also surveyed the idea that Muslims generally support and condone terrorism. Read the rest on:
