Deconstructing the Muslim Survey

By now you’ve probably heard about the Pew survey of American Muslims that showed 25% of them in favor of suicide bombings and only 40% of them believing that the 9/11 hijackers were Arab men.
If you’re not sure if you’ve heard of the survey, it was probably under a headline like “Muslims Love America and You’re Just a Paranoid Islamophobe for Thinking Otherwise”.
Anyway, here’s the 108-page pdf file of the actual survey so you can see for yourself what it says. But if you’re feeling lazy, here are some of the important numbers:


  • 80% thought Rosie O’Donnell should wear a burka or at least a paper bag over her head.
  • 72% think that we should’ve looked for Saddam’s WMD’s in his basement, since that’s where they keep their WMD’s.
  • 83% want to fight global warming, unless said warming results from a nuclear strike on Israel.
  • 51% said Lindsay Lohan would look hotter if she had four legs and a hump.
  • 2% have an MP3 of John McCain singing “Bomb Iran” on their iPods.
  • 92% visit IMAO every day hoping to read that something bad has happened to Laurence Simon.
  • 7% can say “JOOOOOOS!” without reflexively shaking a fist in anger.
  • 18% admitted to having a secret crush on Tom Selleck because of his Saddam-like moustache.
  • 89% believe that fire can weaken steel enough to collapse a building or have plans to conduct full-scale tests of the theory.
  • 34% just saved a bunch of money on car insurance by switching to GEICO and gave it all to Al Qaeda.
  • 68% want Michelle Malkin to do another video in that cheerleader outfit.
  • 12% can never remember if “Allah” is spelled with one “l” or two.
  • 31% have taped a sign that said “Fatwa Me” to someone’s back as a practical joke.
  • 25% admitted to youthful experimentation with drawing Mohammed cartoons.
  • 82% cheered at the end of “Old Yeller”.
  • 100% cheered at the end of “V for Vendetta”.
  • 8% regret the night they got REALLY drunk and let their friends talk them into getting that Piglet ankle-tattoo.
  • 42% wonder why it’s not spelled “mosq”.
  • 65% can always find the right direction to face during prayers, thanks to their Apple iMecca.
  • 13% have used a Pittsburgh Steelers souvenier “Terrible Towel” as an emergency prayer rug.

Personally, I don’t think I need to know where Mecca is, since I’m sure there are plenty of American ICBM’s that already know it for me.

    Wow, I’m like 92 or 93% of Muslims. I guess I need a prayer rug.
    I’m off the Pittsburgh.

  2. 13% are against the new comprehensive immigration reform because they fear it will allow Muslims to flood the U.S. with their cheap terrorist labor and drive down the wages of the terrorists already here.
    After blowing them selves up, they will only get 5 virgins in paradise as opposed to the 72 virgins they currently get.

  3. 13% Reported lying about whether they had ritually cleaned their feet or not. (who knew?)
    88% of male respondants reported that they once had a Farrah Fawcett poster hanging in their bedrooms.
