abstract="Four national polls of Muslim Americans conducted between 2001 and 2007 were reviewed to find items tapping possible sources of sympathy and justification for jihadist violence: anti-Muslim discrimination, radical Islam, and economic and political grievance. These items were correlated with items representing three elements of the global-jihad frame: seeing the war on terrorism as a war on Islam or &quot;insincere,&quot; justifying suicide attacks in defense of Islam, and favorable views of Al Qaeda. The three elements of the global-jihad frame were no more than weakly related to one another and had different predictors. <br><br>DISCUSSION suggests that the U.S. &quot;war of ideas&quot; may need to target separately the different elements of the global-jihad frame. © 2011 The Society for the Psychological Study of Social Issues.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
