With nations once again on high alert and multinational forces deployed
to world hotspots, an annual survey of American and European public
opinion released today shows both Americans and Europeans expressing
shared concern over global threats. Feelings that international
terrorism is an “extremely important” threat have intensified, with
66% of Europeans identifying it as an extremely important threat,
up from 58% last year, and 79% of Americans, up from 72%. Both Americans
(58%, up from 45%) and Europeans (52%, up from 41%) increasingly
see Islamic fundamentalism as an extremely important threat.
