This poll is one of the only ones that has been done. All the others also indicate low percentages in support of ISIS.

How horribly racist of you, not only are you trying to justify the internment of an entire religion but you're justifying the internment of an entire race of people based on no reason but your own hysteria.

I pity anyone who is this hysterical, you've lost sight of what is right and wrong.

Not sure. The polls indicate the race is now quite close and I think anyone who is gonna vote for Trump is probably already supporting him, so not sure how he thinks he's gonna pick up votes with these comments. I dont know that he's trying to do at all.

I dearly hope that its not representative because 10% support is a big following.

Lets put that into perspective, at the last election, the liberal democrats had 7.9% share of the vote, UKIP 12% and labour 30%

I would expect a terrorist organisation to have less than 1% share of the vote (support) if they really were outlawed.

Personally, I think the 62% of 'dont knows' in Pakistan is quite disturbing but most of the favaorables are under 10 % with many under 5 %.

Seriously there's too many dicks in this world.

Can't we put them all on a deserted Island never to be seen again? Starting with Donald Trump.

For the record the reason I hardly post on here anymore is that a certain minority of posters are unable to hold a sensible debate turn every thread into a personal slanging match and a large proportion of them hold the most inane, naive ,juvenile views.

They are not living in the real world more like a rosy make believe reality , they espouse liberal claptrap with no real understanding of how things actually are.

So when I give a point of view that is at odds with their viewpoint I am labelled as horribly racist.....really !!!!

****ing grow up....

Ha ha - NO he is most certainly not. Trump is NOBODY's fool, and I personally believe that certain people are going to be shocked by the outcome of the actual candidate race.

I agree that the far left is just as dangerous as the far right, but America doesn't have a far left party or candidate in their country, you vote for either Tories (Democrats) or BNP (Republicans)

It actually disgraces me that people think like this, have we learnt nothing from the past?
It wasn;t right back then either, actually the US government ended up having to pay reparations to the japnese americans who were put in internment camps. George Takei was in one as a child and he said the government paid his family 30 thousand dollars after the war was over.

We have far left groups though, like Occupy and BLM. Also the far left Green party lead by Ralph Nader was a major party in the 2000 election, it actually helped Bush win, which is why no one supports far left parties anymore. everyone on the left was pissed off at the Green party after that debacle.

You think it's justifiable to punish an entire race or creed based on the actions of a few so you don't get to talk about anyone else's sense of morality.

Domestic terrorism is more common than Islamic terrorism in the states, should all white/christian people be placed in camps too since they've been responsible for more attacks in the past 10 years alone than Islamic terrorists have or are these camps only reserved for people who are different to you?

That's fair enough, I've never heard of Occupy and BLM, are they really extreme left then?

And tbh if I was American I would be angry at any party that was responsible for George W Bush being President too.

Donald Trump has never held political office and he's a failed businessman -- he declared bankruptcy FOUR TIMES. He should be forced to take a civics test. He definitely suffers from narcissistic personality disorder. The guy is a certified nutcase, but he's among friends when it comes to the Republican Party and its current crop of presidential nominee contenders.
